Now that the Halloween festivities are done, Mariah Carey season has officially begun after she took to Twitter to announce the arrival of a new Christmas single.
Set to drop on Friday (Nov 5), Carey has collaborated with Khalid and US choir director andĀ gospel singer Kirk Franklin. The star shared a 30-second snippet of the romantic R&B ballad, Fall in Love at Christmas, with her 21 million Twitter followers.
The artwork featured Carey, Khalid and Franklin as children at Christmas on a backdrop of gold wrapping paper. While Carey accidentally tagged the wrong Khalid on Twitter, weāre sure the new single will be a hit following the longstanding success of her Christmas classic, All I Want For Christmas Is You.
Carey brought in the festive spirit earlier in the week with a clip captioned, āReady? Letās go #MariahSZNā which showed the singer smashing up pumpkins and declaring, āitās time.ā The video was soundtracked by the starās 1994 classicĀ All I Want For Christmas Is You.
