Ever wondered what happened to the songs that were recorded for Mariah Carey’s cancelled ‘Angels Advocate’ remix album? Well, it seems that they have finally begun to surface starting with R. Kelly’s version of ‘Betcha Gon’ Know’.
Listen to the song below:
Although this track is unfinished (Carey’s vocals were obviously supposed to be added to the last verse), it is painfully clear that it could have been a winner in every way. R. Kelly utilised his storytelling skills to continue the plot started by Carey on the original to create an exciting narration.
In fact, this record could have been the foundation for one of the duo’s best videos, following in the vein of ‘Trapped In The Closet’. Indeed, if Carey needed a hit to salvage the ‘Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel’ era than this was it.
I need the names of whoever ruined this project. This is such an injustice!
Props to Red Free Mp3 Radio for the track!

where’s Mariah?
JENNIFER!!!
This song IS nice!! Maybe Mariah can do an ‘Unheard/Unreleased’ album?
I think this is a demo for Mariah, cos Kellz is talking about a “he” in the first part, unless he’s talking about it from a diffferent prespective – but he does put on two voices…
Only flops have cancelled albums! FLOP!
@T-Rex Trent said it’s unfinished. It is EPIC though! I miss MC!
LMAO @ that gif.
I’m not a big fan of Memoirs, I actually like the original better than this.
If what Nick said is true -about MC listening to her old stuff- then I just CANNOT wait for her new material. I really don’t care much about the unfinished/demos off Memoirs, we want N.E.W. Mimi
LOL THIS BITCH IS STILL TRYING, STOP IT MOORIAH GO AND GET YOURSELF DRUNK AND TELL THE NANNY’S TO LOOK AFTER THOSE KIDS, JANET IS KILLING IT AT THIS MOMENT, PEOPLE LIKE RIHANNA STAND THERE AND BLEET LIKE A GOAT BUT JANET AT THE AGE OF 45 IS KILLING YOUR FAVES, MARIAH HAS SHITTED ON HER LEGACY IN 5 YEARS TIME NO ONE WILL REMEMBER HER, HER RECORDS HER BEING BROKEN LEFT RIGHT AND CENTRE LMAO.
FLOP
Mariah is the ugliest pop star and the fattest and Keshas voice is more solid than hers. Beyonce is more respected in the industry. Mariah will be doing a tribute to King B soon @ the grammies or something. B> your fave could never
Yes this could have been a really good video and yet another great Remix for The Remix Queen. Oh well, cant wait for new music, just want her to take her time and make some mature music. Having Twins will reflect in her music and style!
I love how raw the vocals are!
what a shame that this project wasnt released..A rerelease with a remix cd with atleat 8 songs woulda been a good idea…the label messed this one up… what a bunch of dumbasses for cancelling the project all together :/
YESSS, ONLY THE QUEEN
MARIAH >>>> YOUR FAVES, BITCHES
DEAL WITH IT
NO ONE COMES CLOSE TO MARIAH’S ORIGINALITY, CREATIVITY, PERSONALITY, TALENT, VOICE
ALL HAIL THE QUEEN OF MUSIC
QUEEN OF ALL MUSIC + R&B LEGEND = EPICNESS, THAT IS BETCHA GON’ KNOW (REMIX)
Really not feeling his trapped in the closet style mess on this track. He just droned on to the point I tuned out. At least Mariah’s story telling on the track was more engaging and pleasant to listen to. It’s only cause it’s Mariah’s track I actually listened to this. I don’t like nor support R.Kelly for obvious reasons.
@London Diva
Mariah’s “storytelling” was nothing more than a rip from R. Kelly’s Hip Hoperas.
and nobody cares if you don’t support R. Kelly, ugly. The fact remains that your fave called him to remix the song and was influenced by him to do the original.
@HA NO BITCH! Remember Mariah’s The Roof from Butterfly? She wastelling stories with her lyrics FOR YEARS. Don’t try it!
Times are changing for the bteetr if I can get this online!
