January 24, 2017

Mariah Carey and YG have teamed up for a new song and music video, which could be shared this weekend, according to a report in TMZ.

The track was allegedly inspired by Carey's breakup with ex-fiance James Packer, and is being billed as "an anthem for women overcoming harsh breakups." It's reported that YG joined the singer in the studio last weekend to record a verse and film the music video as well. The clip is said to have its premiere on the season finale of Carey's reality show Mariah's World this weekend.

Representatives for YG confirmed in an email to The FADER that he and Carey "have been in the studio working together."
