Listen: Nick Cannon’s New Song Admits He Still Has Feelings For Mariah Carey
Nick Cannon is admitting that he still has feelings for his ex-wife, Mariah Carey in his new single “Alone” straight off his upcoming mixtape, Raw N B The Explicit Tape.
According to Entertainment Tonight, Cannon’s latest hit samples Carey’s “Alone In Love” off her 1990 self-titled album. “This is the gospel of my broken soul,” the talk show host said in a statement. “This is as raw as it gets.”
“I say I’m cool when I know I miss it/I’d trade it all for the case/If I could have you back/If I could go back to where we started at,” Cannon sings on the track. “As much as I want you back/It’s probably better where you at.”
Later in the lyrics, the Masked Singer host alludes that the relationship ended for the best.
"As much as I want you back/ It's probably better where you at/Cause I'm still running the streets/ I'm still all in the sheets/ Having babies, models and singers and actresses saying they pregnant by me," he sings. "Have to pay $10,000 a week, I take care of my peeps/Now you don't worry when I creep/You got a man next to you when you sleep."
Cannon and Carey were married from 2008 to 2014. Cannon filed for divorce in 2014 which took nearly two years to finalize. The former couple are parents to 10-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe.
The new music release comes just two weeks after Cannon hosted a gender reveal party with Bre Tiesi, where the couple announced that they are expecting a baby boy.
This will be Cannon’s eighth child and Tiesi’s first.
He is also the father of son Golden, 4, daughter Powerful Queen, 13 months, both with Brittany Bell. And in June 2021, the actor welcomed twins Zion and Zillion, 7 months with Abby De La Rosa.
Cannon welcomed his youngest son Zen with Alyssa Scott in June 2021. In a segment on his show in early Dec. 2021, the actor and comedian shared that his 4-month-old son had passed away from a brain tumor.
