Thirsty (109,289) by Bill from the UK

I remember ages ago I told y'all that Thirsty was written about Damizza, but got shot down saying it was about Nick. Which is stupid because Thirsty was written and recorded when they were still married. Mariah gave up on Damizza and their friendship a long time ago because he kept spewing crap and spilling secrets to get his name out there.

New video (109,286) by Haiji from United States

Makes sense I guess lol I think the media will drop tonight at midnight, if not then idk. Who knows, maybe the "earth-shattering" surprise is that she'll pull a Beyoncé and give us visuals for this song in 10 years. I'm really hoping for a Cardi B. or Glorilla remix, along with the Rakim remix that I'm sure is already in the works.

A moderate hit already (109,283) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway

I just [checked] the Wikipedia page for Type Dangerous, and it's already on a few charts, [including] #9 on the UK Singles Sales Chart (OCC), [these] are very good figures for a Mariah Carey single in a long time. I hope this is just the beginning.

Mariah Carey and new era and career direction (109,282) by DivergentIntel from United States

If Mariah Carey wants new and renewed interest and rising and increasing success again, she needs a new hair do, stylist, new clothes, new gear, new hairstyle, maybe chop and cut that hair and lose some weight here or there. And she perhaps might need to do vocal surgery to get those nodules removed so she can hit all of those big and high notes, and she might need a vocal coach as well to maintain and expand and improve her technique. And she needs to be more active and mobile on stage. That will put her on top and into a class and league all in her own. She will have the success and renewed attention and get the success of her legendary glory days and peak like in the 1990s again. I love Mariah Carey. She is the GOAT and is our queen. I want to see Mariah Carey win and be on top again and know she can do it. This is no shade to MC. I just want to see her win and be on top. She is a living legend and rightfully deserves to take her place on the throne as the #1 queen reigning on top of everything. Hail queen Mariah.

Damizza linking up with Jaguar Wright? (109,281) by DivergentIntel from United States

I almost feel like Damizza is gonna end up teaming up with Jaguar Wright for an interview. That is where all of this is heading. Some nasty work in these internet and entertainment streets. Sigh.

Damizza (109,280) by DivergentIntel from United States

Damizza has been saying all of this for years. He said it in his 2011 tell all book which is available for free online still on his website and else where.

Emotions (109,279) by DivergentIntel from United States

Yes, at the time Emotions album was released, songs/singles could not chart on the Billboard Hot 100 if an official single/copy was not released for sale. Back then radio play or radio airplay plus sales were the heavy base determining factor for a song/single to be able to chart on the main Billboard Hot 100. Before the fall of 1998 or before late 1998, Billboard would not allowa any song/single to chart on the main Billboard Hot 100 chart without an official physical singe and copy released for sale. But after the fall of 1998 or late 1998, then you could chart without having an physical single copy released and airplay alone was at the bare minimum was allowed to let you chart on the Billboard Hot 100. Tommy Mottola and Columbia Records, which was her label at the time, decided to pull the Can't Let Go single from the shelves while it was at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100, which prevented the song/single from going to #1 in a perceived and/or intended effort to get the album sales of Emotions to increase. I think this is a was a horrible move on the part of Columbia or Tommy Mottola or whoever made that recommendation and/or decision to do that. Mariah Carey perhaps should have gone on a World Tour to help promote Emotions which could have perhaps increased sales of the Emotions album. They also could have discounted or reduced the price of Emotions album for a time to boost potential sales. Also doing more remixes could have drew more people into interest in the album.

Either way, Emotions album still went 4x or 5x platinum in the USA alone, and many more additional millions of copies sold extra outside of the USA. Emotions album was originally supposed to be released in August of 1991, but then its release date got pushed back to over 1 month to September of 1991. I think it would have been better had they released it as originally planned in August of 1991.

Damizza (109,278) by DivergentIntel from United States

The stuff that Damizza said recently in an interview regarding Mariah Carey and Eminem is not new information at all. That is old stale news and stuff that he has been saying for years. If y'all remember his tell all book which was released in 2011, he went in depth into detail on his relationship and situation and dealings with Mariah Carey over the years and their journey together including the Eminem and Mariah Carey debacle etc.

Damizza also implied that he was in a sexual and/or romantic relationship with Mariah Carey as well. What baffled me is that if what he was saying is true, then that means Mariah Carey was sexually and romantically involved with Derek Jeter, Luis Miguel, Damizza, Eminem all during the same time. There was also reports of Mariah Carey being with other men or courting other men as well during that same time.

BET Awards (109,277) by DivergentIntel from United States

I feel that Mariah Carey should have been given a special tribute performance, for her Ultimate Icon Award. Mariah Carey should have been given a Lifetime Achievement Award.

The OGs (109,276) by Musti from UK

I haven't been on in a few years so I don't know who's been around or not. But it's really reassuring to see some familiar names still posting. My last post was 4 years ago when the mood here was kinda toxic, due to one OG in particular but let's not go there. I hope he's well. But I'm really happy to see all the excitement and support for TD. This board is for the true fans.

So according to Chatgpt: There's no credible evidence of a delay - rather, it appears the team actively adjusted the timing to build anticipation and ensure the surprise element hit just right.

Damizza (109,274) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

I haven't read what he said but my stance is I don't care haha. I'm too high on a new Mariah era to care about what MC did decades back. Snakes in the grass, it's time to cut the lawn.

New video (109,273) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

Lol probably because Joseph Kahn didn't finish editing it. He was joking about it in his tweets and Mariah was joking about it in the post yesterday. What I don't understand is why they aren't giving a time on when it's being released. They didn't even provide one for today's release date and neither for tomorrow's. Like is it midnight, is it 10 am hahah. And I feel bad for the people who actually cancelled their booty calls like JK told everyone to do only for the video to not drop.

JK probably needed more time to edit it properly. He mentioned time was really tight. I guess Friday night booty calls are back on now.

I "fear" there are some truths on what he's saying. I don't think everything is just made up. But who knows?

Damizza (109,270) by RL from USA

Regardless of if we don't like what he's saying, and if it is irrelevant, my question is if there is any validity to what he is saying.

Let's have a reunion. Where have you been, The Wind? It is good to see all of the OGs posting this week. If you haven't posted in awhile, say hello.

The OGs (109,267) by TheWind from England

In the real housewives world they refer to original housewives as OGs. It got me thinking, who are some of the OGs that people remember here? The message board has been going for a long time, but I remember some big characters on here, like Special K. I'd consider her an OG and big personality on here.

Damizza (109,266) by MusicfanJ from Germany

Exactly. Damizza even seems to be a bigger clown than Eminem. That he talks about Mariah in that way is tasteless.

Emotions (109,265) by BFF from United States

I love the "Emotions" album. It's my second favorite behind "Butterfly". "Can't Let Go" absolutely deserved to go to #1, and it is one of my favorites from Mariah's early ballad output. "If It's Over" and "Til the End of Time" are also favorites. The "Emotions" album was really special because it marked the first time Mariah had full creative control. I think it strikes a nice balance between the uptempo songs with David Cole + Robert Clivilles and the soul-inflected ballads she recorded with Walter A. and Carole King.
