Throughout the disc, and especially on her early hits, Carey's vocal histrionics consistently overshadow the songs themselves.

Most of "Rainbow" is marked by Carey's continued progression towards a more R&B-based sound.

Especially disappointing are Carey's covers of two dance tracks from the era.

The guest star may be a great marketing ploy, but Carey doesn't really need them here.

Carey has gotten to the point where she uses her pipes to strengthen the songs instead of relying on relatively mediocre material as nothing more than a showcase for her voice.

Won't go down as one of her strongest albums, though it's a decent set that continues a comeback.
