Mariah Carey revelou em um trecho de suas memórias que ela secretamente fez um álbum de rock alternativo durante as sessões de seu LP Daydream de 1995. “Curiosidade: eu fiz um álbum alternativo enquanto estava fazendo Daydream”, Carey tweetou no domingo. "Apenas para rir, mas me ajudou a atravessar alguns dias sombrios." No trecho de The Meaning of Mariah Carey, a cantora postou no domingo, ela escreveu sobre o LP secreto: “Eu traria minha pequena canção de rock alternativo para a banda e cantarolaria um riff de guitarra bobo. Eles pegariam e nós gravaríamos imediatamente. Era irreverente, cru e urgente, e a banda entrou nisso. Na verdade, comecei a amar algumas das músicas. Eu me comprometeria totalmente com meu personagem. ” Ela continuou: “Eu estava tocando com o estilo das cantoras brancas punk-leves e arejadas que eram populares na época. Você conhece aqueles que pareciam tão despreocupados com seus sentimentos e sua imagem. Eles podiam estar com raiva, angustiados e bagunceiros, com sapatos velhos, sapatos enrugados e sobrancelhas indisciplinadas, enquanto cada filme que fiz era tão calculado e bem cuidado. Eu queria me libertar, me soltar e expressar minha miséria - mas também queria rir. Eu estava totalmente ansioso para fazer minhas sessões de banda alter-ego depois do Daydream todas as noites.

Mariah Carey revealed in an excerpt from her upcoming memoir that she secretly made an alternative rock album during the sessions for her 1995 LP Daydream. “Fun fact: I did an alternative album while I was making Daydream,” Carey tweeted Sunday. “Just for laughs, but it got me through some dark days.” In The Meaning of Mariah Carey excerpt the singer posted Sunday, she wrote of the secret LP, “I’d bring my little alt-rock song to the band and hum a silly guitar riff. They would pick it up and we would record it immediately. It was irreverent, raw, and urgent, and the band got into it. I actually started to love some of the songs. I would fully commit to my character.” She continued, “I was playing with the style of the breezy-grunge, punk-light white female singers who were popular at the time. You know the ones who seemed to be so carefree with their feelings and their image. They could be angry, angsty, and messy, with old shoes, wrinkled slips, and unruly eyebrows, while every movie I made was so calculated and manicured. I wanted to break free, let loose, and express my misery — but I also wanted to laugh. I totally looked forward to doing my alter-ego band sessions after Daydream each night.
