Mariah Carey: 'My daughter keeps singing part of my new album'

Songstress Mariah Carey has revealed that her daughter Monroe might feature on her upcoming new studio album because she was singing parts of one of the new songs after hearing Carey play it at home. 

Speaking to People magazine, she confessed that she recorded Monroe singing along on her iPhone and it was so cute that it might make the final cut:

"It's a song that I wrote with Bryan-Michael Cox and Jermaine Dupri. There's a part that Jermaine says on the song that [the kids] loved, and Monroe started to say it. I kept having to get my iPhone and record her. So I have all these different takes of her saying things, singing things. Then I'd be like, 'This is your new ad lib -- learn it!' I have to make it fun for her."

When asked if her twins, Moroccan and Monroe, are musical children she admitted that they both love to sing: "Well, they started singing and talking simultaneously. It's hard to explain. That sounds like a lie, but it's true. They're both so musical."

Her new album, which is currently untitled, is set to be officially released on May 6. Songwriter/producer Bryan-Michael Cox has since explained to Billboard that the highly anticipated record is like 'a honey-baked ham'.
