I hoped this wouldn't happen (107,365) by C from United States Can you share what sources lead you to believe she is in financial turmoil? (Thursday 19 September 2024; 12:49) this is a reply to message 107,353

I hoped this wouldn't happen (107,353) by Brad from USA As a 34 year fan of MC, I had hoped it would never be her who would suffer financial ruin for overspending and mismanagement. She just seemed more diligent about that early in her career. But it seems she is ruined financially and mortgaged to her eyeballs. I know her vanity passive income projects have been a bust. She doesn't have the following or good reputation for stuff like that. Touring is all she can do at this point it seems. She's painted herself into a corner with her finances and diva persona that most folks aren't attracted to. Time for a reincarnation of Mimi. She has to bring something new to the masses to reinvent and renew her commercial viability. (Tuesday 17 September 2024; 02:30)

Rainbow 25th annivesary vinyl (107,364) by Robert-Anthony from United States We are 29 days away from the release day. You will be able to purchase it from your local record store. (Thursday 19 September 2024; 01:27)

Made For Me (remix) (107,363) by Billy from Greece I just love it. So addictive. I can't listen to it just one. Still on heavy rotation. Kudos to Muni Long as well. (Wednesday 18 September 2024; 21:56)

Industry problems vs. waning radio airplay (107,362) by Robert-Anthony from United States MC is in the same club as other R&B artists like Brandy, Eric Benet, Trey Songz, Keyshia Cole, Monica, Toni Braxton, and Robin Thicke. They all have not released an album since their last albums were not huge sellers and with waning radio airplay. So is it a music industry problem for older R&B artists or radio programmers just don't cater to older R&B artists anymore? All eight artists could release an album today and it would be better than what Urban AC radio is playing on the radio today by these new young artists. (Wednesday 18 September 2024; 10:20)

I hoped this wouldn't happen (107,361) by RL from USA I agree with you - unless she has financial advisors who don't have her best interest in mind. There is a precedent for finance people who will steal money from the very people they are supposed to protect. I do remember a time when she hired a horrible manager Stella, which was hurting her career. (Wednesday 18 September 2024; 05:48) this is a reply to message 107,360

I hoped this wouldn't happen (107,360) by Jamie from UK Let's be honest, Mariah Carey will never be broke, does she spend to much? Probably. But she will have financial advisors that keep an eye on her wealth and income. And there's no way the relationship with her and James ended due to money, he's a billionaire and was recently reported to have suffered a breakdown after Mariah. I wouldn't believe everything the newspapers report. Maybe she has been told to curb her spending against her earnings so late on in her career, but she will never be broke.

I hoped this wouldn't happen (107,359) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Neither do I but even if it’s true why is this article even necessary. It’s not impacting anyone and she’s also not in the middle of a scandal. Very weird for them to do an “exposé” on her financials.

I hoped this wouldn't happen (107,357) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Lol I don't even understand why that article was necessary. Like why is the NY post so obsessed with Mariah's financials? Such a random article. (Tuesday 17 September 2024; 13:53)

I hoped this wouldn't happen (107,356) by Robert-Anthony from United States When the author started throwing out all of those dollar amounts and talking about MC taking out mortagages on her Tribeca home, I knew the article was nothing but lies. (Tuesday 17 September 2024; 12:20)

I hoped this wouldn't happen (107,355) by Lee from USA I wouldn't believe anything from the NY Post. It is owned by the same people who owns Fox News and the National Enquirer. Besides, she's stil the best selling female artist in American history. I never had no issue with her diva persona when rappers are given passes for being jerks. (Tuesday 17 September 2024; 11:25)

Memoirs album thoughts 15 years later (107,354) by Robert-Anthony from United States Memoirs of An Imperfect Angel has to be MC's best album title for being creative and making the music buyer want to listen to the album's 17 tracks. The album cover is just gorgeous. Also, too bad Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis didn't have tracks 18-20 on the album. Their addition would have definitely increased sales and airplay.

OSD Tori Kelly (107,352) by Norman from USA I think she gets nervous performing these songs. She has the skill and range, but the execution is a bit messy and not as sonically pleasing as it could be. Having Wanye sorta force-coaching her with the head spasms didn't help either. One thing about OSD for me has always been the Wanye and Mimi bridge adlibs - it drives the emotional element of the song to its peak and really delivers in a harmonious and powerful vocal performance. This rendition lacked that for me. (Tuesday 17 September 2024; 01:37)

The Neptunes (107,351) by C from United States What? Where did you hear that? (Sunday 15 September 2024; 17:44) this is a reply to message 107,349

The Neptunes (107,349) by Robert-Anthony from United States What is the story behind The Neptunes not allowing MC to have producer credits on Say Somethin and To the Floor? I never heard the full story. (Saturday 14 September 2024; 23:31)

China (107,350) by MusicfanJ from Germany Wow, beautiful pics from the [Great Wall] in China. She looks fantastic. I didn't expect new pics so soon. The joke with the heels, typical MC. Haha. (Sunday 15 September 2024; 10:24) this is a reply to message 107,347

Christmas announcement soon? (107,348) by Robert-Anthony from United States Do you think the huge Christmas announcement [will] come after the China and Brazil shows? I hope she makes the announcement on a morning news program like GMA or the Today Show. (Saturday 14 September 2024; 04:10)

Complex relationship (107,346) by Stacey from USA Anyone who has lost a family member knows the different feelings you can experience. While I miss my dad immensely I can't help but feel peace he's free from all the mental and physical illnesses he dealt with on Earth. Maybe in some ways this will free MC from that strain she often felt with her mom and sister. I hope she finds that peace one day. (Saturday 14 September 2024; 00:25)

Complex relationship (107,344) by Jamie from UK Mariah is looking great in her recent posts, she seems quite relaxed. Whilst we will never know how she is truly feeling I'm wondering if what she's recently been through has been a weight lifted off her shoulders? She's said how complex her relationship with her mother was at times and I don't even need to go there with how strained her relationship with Alison was. Maybe the worry of trying to please her family whilst not coming across as a money sponge for them is more difficult than we can understand. I may be wrong but her spirit seems lifted at the moment.

Mariah Carey's signature song (107,345) by T from USA After 34 years I think it's safe to rate her songs in terms of mass appeal. We know that Vision of Love started a singing trend like no other, and Obsessed is MC's hit of the new generation. Here is the top 10, then top 5 and ultimately the top 3 Mariah songs in her discography. Top 10: Vision Of Love Emotions Hero Without You Fantasy One Sweet Day Always Be My Baby We Belong Together Obsessed All I Want For Christmas Is You Top 5: Emotions Hero Fantasy Always Be My Baby All I Want For Christmas Is You Top 3: Hero Fantasy All I Want For Christmas Is You Signature song: All I Want For Christmas Is You (Friday 13 September 2024; 18:53)

MC (107,342) by Robert-Anthony from United States I knew it wasn't going to mean much of anything. I was just surprised someone posted a video of the Atlanta concert. I just always hear Atlanta music artists singing and rapping about Bankhead Highway. Lol. I do miss Atlanta for the music and culture.

MC (107,341) by C from United States What does this piece of one song prove? Why did you post [Angels cry] or [It's a wrap]? I don't live on the westside so no Bankhead for me. (Wednesday 11 September 2024; 13:07)

MC (107,332) by Robert-Anthony from United States C, MC was giving us TEOM vocals that night with no backing tracks. I remember those piercing high notes she gave that night. Do we need to meet on Bankhead Highway? Lol. Check this out. (Saturday 7 September 2024; 21:51)
