I will handle this review fairly soon.CurtisNaito (talk) 19:55, 25 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

@Calvin999Not a lot of problems with this article. However, I do recommend the following copy edits.
  • "album/thirteenth studio album"=I don't think a backslash should be used in formal writing. Replace the backslash with the word "and".
  • "It is an R&B song; the lyrics are about Carey putting herself first and emancipation, however many critics likened the content to the singer's separation from Nick Cannon."=This could be considered a run-on sentence. Try putting a period after "emancipation".
  • "Critical response to "Infinity" was positive, with Carey's vocals and humorous songwriting praised, with particular emphasis on the reference to Fritos."= I lean towards making "with particular emphasis on the reference to Fritos" a separate sentence.
  • "filmed during on of Carey's"="one of Carey's"
  • "a distinctly unromantic a kiss-off anthem"=The source cited does not include the first "a"
  • "highlighted a the juxtaposition between"=delete the word "a"
  • "appeared to referring to their"="appeared to be referring"
  • "and continuation to co-parent their twins"=The word choice seems clunky here. Perhaps try "and ongoing co-parenting of"
  • "When asked if the lyrics were about her relationship with Cannon by Liz Hernandez"=Change this sentence from passive voice to active voice.
  • "feel, Carey's vocals and songwriting"="Carey's vocals and songwriting" is like a single item, so I think you should put "and" or "as well as" after "feel".
  • "Billboard were complimentary"="Billboard was complimentary"
  • "come accustom to hearing"="come to grow accustomed to hearing"
  • "whilst notes"="whistle notes"
  • "suffering from Bronchitis prior to"=There is no need to capitalize bronchitis here.
  • "Credits adapted from the liner notes of"=Since this is a normal non-bulleted sentence ending with a period, I think it should be a full sentence reading "The following credits were adapted from".CurtisNaito (talk) 17:14, 26 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
  • "whilstle"="whistle"
  • "appeared to referring to their"="appeared to be referring"
  • "highlighted a the juxtaposition between"=delete the word "a"
  • a "distinctly unromantic a kiss-off anthem"=This sentence is still grammatically wrong. How about saying that it was called "distinctly unromantic" and "a kiss-off anthem".
  • "Critical response to "Infinity" was positive, with Carey's vocals and humorous songwriting praised, with particular emphasis on the reference to Fritos."= I lean towards making "with particular emphasis on the reference to Fritos" a separate sentence.CurtisNaito (talk) 17:15, 27 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
