"Say Something" to be MIMI'S 5th single!!

"Say Somethin' " - Official Radio Impact Dates // 11:58 AM EST Updated by Liron

Earlier this month, it was believed "Fly Like A Bird" would become the fifth single from 'Mimi'. After a stellar performance at the Grammy Awards, accompanied with a single review from Billboard Magazine and early 'adds' to several radio stations, it seemed that "Fly Like A Bird" was poised to storm the airwaves. The All Access Music Group still lists March 14 (Rhythmic / Crossover) and April 4 (Mainstream) as the song's radio impact dates.

However, radio industry magazine FMQB states today that "Say Somethin'" will be the 'Mimi' song going for radio adds in April:

Mariah Carey f/Snoop Dogg "Say Something"
April 10-11: Rhythmic / Crossover

In addition, the song was played on Carson Daly's radio show, presented as "the new single by Mariah Carey."

MTV News in France reported that Mariah is getting ready to shoot her next music video (for "Say Somethin'") with Snoop Dogg and Pharrell in Paris.

well it's about damn time she released that song. if this is the last song off of Emancipation Of.., then it's a great way to end it.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Finally! I heard Fly Like A Bird a few times on radio since the Grammys but didn't know if it was the station's choice or the new single since I don't listen much. I'd be happy with that but knowing it's officially Say Something is great.

Actually I'm a little surprised at this.

Wasn't it a pre-release promo single before "It's Like That" like a year ago?

Feels like we have come full circle with this release.

I wish she had released "Get Cho' Digits" [my affectionate name for "Get Your Number"] domestically instead of just in the U.K. That was one of my favorite songs last year.

SS is not a bad single choice, though!

They can't make something that old re-chart on the Top 200. Plus, the Catalog album chart still has way too much competition against Glitter.

I like "Say Something" a lot to, but I'm with Cin on this one. I thought it was already out on the air (but not released as a single) before the album came out.

That's funny because the Detriot hit station has been playing the hell out of "Lonely" (or something like that) and I figured it already was the next single....Guess since she has such power over her record label, Clear Channel, they test marketed for her.

Cool, one of my favourite songs on the album.

Hey, if the albums still going strong keep releasing 'em. It's rare that an album is strong enough to release two let alone five. An album should be filled with strong single material not one hit and a bunch of fillers. And if it was Badu I'd want the same. Bring 'em on.

ok if it was Badu you're right i wouldn't be bitching...it's just a hard time for us Madge fams for that Mimi bitch to keep on raining on madonna's parade with all her "urban" singles that get a shitload of airplay...that AND i do think TEOM isn't THAT great...if it was Mariah's debut record i wouldn't complain

lol I do understand but I'm a Madge fan that doesn't have a problem with MC or vice versa. I love and accept them both for what and who they are. I hate that the fans fight and that they don't get exactly get along.

Speaking of Badu... where is she? Damn.

See, I thought "Mine Again" or "Stay the Night" would have been the last one.
BUt since the remixes were already done for "Say Somethin'" I guess why waste them.
