In early 2009, singer-songwriter The-Dream stated that he and Carey had already begun working on her next studio album:

“ I think it’s about just writing an album that includes the focus of all the hits that she’s had. She can’t take a loss; she has to do everything to the T. So it’s basically like we’re trying to make a greatest hits album without using the greatest hits. ”

In March 2009, Carey wrote on Twitter that she finished working on two songs with James "Big Jim" Wright and Christopher "Tricky" Stewart. That same month, Brian Michael Cox and Jermaine Dupri said in their posts on Twitter that they worked on a song for Carey called "100 Percent". "100 Perecent" will be the theme song for Carey's upcoming movie "Precious". In May 2009, Carey also stated on Twitter that she worked with Timbaland. The New York Post reported that Carey covered Foreigner's "I Want to Know What Love Is" for her new album. On May 20, Carey announced on her Twitter page the title of her new album, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel. That same day, L.A. Reid played a song from the album titled "Hate U" during an Island Def Jam Event. According to MTV Italy, the album is set to be released on the 18th of September.
