Mariah Carey is preparing to release a sweet surprise….

The 56-year-old half-Venezuelan American Grammy-winning songstress has released a video on social media announcing plans to release a new single, “Sugar Sweet,” in the near future.

In the social media clip catered for fans, she fixes her gaze on the camera with a knowing smile and mouths the lyrics to a new tune.

Dressed in bubblegum pink, the star previews a sweet hook that has her singing, “Imma keep it nice, Imma keep it neat, Imma keep it sugar, Imma keep it sweet.”

No release date or further details have emerged about “Sugar Sweet,” but assuming the single arrives soon, it’ll be the follow-up to “Type Dangerous,” which just got a remix EP release featuring collaborations with Big Sean, DJ Snake, Method Man and more.

Both tracks would likely find a place on Carey’s as-yet-untitled 16th studio album.

Fortunately for eager fans awaiting Carey’s first full-length studio project since 2018, the new album is ready to go when she’s ready to reveal it.

“What is next? The album coming out. I don’t wanna tell too much about it because I just don’t want to reveal the whole thing. It’s finished,” she confirmed in an Apple Music interview last month. In that conversation, she also left a hint that “Sugar Sweet” was on the way, adding that “a second single is coming soon. I’m very excited about it. It’s very summery. I like the beat as well.”
