About Bobby A from United States: I have been a Lamb since 1990. I know Mariah. I love her music. I breathe her music.

Petal collaboration (113,898) by Bobby A from United States Since Ariana's new single is about her fans, I am hoping the second single is a direct tribute to MC or a collaboration. It only makes sense in my opinion for hit second single. Also, pop radio needs a certified pop hit this summer. There hasn't been one at all this year. (Monday 1 June 2026; 02:27)

Article: Mariah Carey to take Christmastime special international (113,890) by Bobby A from United States I think the issue is that we want MC to have a couple of pop and R&B songs as hits during the year before AIWFCIY takes over radio in November and December.

Article: Mariah Carey to take Christmastime special international (113,889) by Zachariah from Croatia If an artist has one song that returns to No. 1 globally every single year for decades, that's not irrelevance - that's cultural permanence. Most artists would love to have one song with that level of longevity. Mariah has an entire career plus the biggest modern Christmas song. Being relevant every December for 30+ years is still being relevant. (Friday 29 May 2026; 18:46)

Deep cuts (113,872) by Bobby A from United States I need a CD of these 12 deep cuts for my 4th of July road trip. Can someone figure out why these songs are listed this way? It is MC's story that has a beginning, middle, and ending. 1. Babydoll 2. Bliss 3. Standing O 4. Thanx 4 Nothin 5. Fourth of July 6. Subtle Invitation 7. Crybaby ft. Snoop Dogg 8. How Much ft. Usher 9. You Don't Know What To Do ft. Wale 10. Love Story 11. 8th Grade 12. One Mo Gen (Thursday 28 May 2026; 01:53)

What a breath of fresh air MCA is (113,867) by Bobby A from United States Syed, I like how you are possibly starting a new trend by responding to various board members within one message. It is going to be a great summer with you here. I am looking forward to several MC reveals like whether MC will join Ariana on Petal for a song, when MC will drop the Glitter anniversary presale website and partnerships and will the Glitter anniversary album rival the Music Box anniversary album.

What a breath of fresh air MCA is (113,864) by Syed from UK Usually I'd be replying to everyone individually but I don't want to clog up the feed and detract from what's most important, so I'll say my thankyou's to everyone here if that's ok. Firstly Lambi. Thank you so much for this, you've put a smile on my face. I was reading some of your recent previous posts earlier and was thinking how wonderfully you write, and in depth. I look forward to reading more of your posts in the future. Chicago Lamb, really appreciate your thoughtful message. Thank you. Lighty, my apologies, I got confused, thinking your message was for me. Thank you for clarifying and for the welcome. Lainsky, I was just remembering my love for Manila (I was briefly there in 2023) when your message popped up. (Monday 25 May 2026; 21:21)

What a breath of fresh air MCA is (113,866) by Bobby A from United States You're welcome Syed. I feel MC knows that the anniversary release of Glitter with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis at helm could be the prelude to MC17 being her second comeback. The look and style MC gave the world at the Gucci event should be what MC goes for MC17. She should lose the gowns and heels for a more grown and sexy album cover for MC17. Why not? Cher did it in 1998 with Believe. Remember how the Believe album and Cher's beauty relaunced her career. (Tuesday 26 May 2026; 04:52) this is a reply to message 113,853

What a breath of fresh air MCA is (113,853) by Syed from UK Thank you so much Bobby. Glad to be here. I've read that 20-30 songs were recorded for Glitter that didn't make the final cut, and I'm excited to see which of these (if any) will be part of the Glitter 25th anniversary edition. Fingers crossed at least some of them will. (Sunday 24 May 2026; 12:58)

Lead The Way (113,856) by Bobby A from United States Why do you think MC was able to sing like this during the recording of Lead The Way? (Monday 25 May 2026; 00:28)

What a breath of fresh air MCA is (113,851) by Bobby A from United States Welcome to the MCA family, Syed. You have joined the family at the perfect time. MC is preparing the Glitter anniversary album for September. (Sunday 24 May 2026; 04:20) this is a reply to message 113,849

What a breath of fresh air MCA is (113,849) by Syed from UK Hey everyone. I never knew about this site until today. I can't begin to tell you how refreshing it is to see actual conversations about our queen as opposed to an endless barrage of GIF's and emoji's under every Mariah post on Facebook, Insta, etc. And well articulated conversations - at that. I might not completely agree with every comment I've read, I think 1 or 2 border on overly critical, but it's good to see a diverse mixture of opinions from Lambs, without overt censorship. I agree with some of the viewpoints here that Mariah increasingly does not seem like her usual self these days. It may be her condition, a side effect of medication, or past (and recent) trauma resurfacing, a combination of all the above, or... something unrelated. As Lambs, the best thing we can do is to support Mariah in any we we can. Because that's what she did for us through countless songs such as: Hero, Can't take that away, Make it happen, and so many others. We also need to overlook any behaviors we might not agree with because A) It's hard to trust anything you see online anymore (thanks AI) and media never shows us the true picture, only a distorted version that "sells" better. And B) We are not in her shoes, as much as we may think we know her, we only know her through the lens of the media, mostly. What she may be going through or battling internally and how they might manifest outwardly are things we need to be mindful of. Just be kind. As she has always been to us. What do I feel could help? Well... if I had a magic wand I'd whisk Mariah away to a place where she could spend some time being in touch with nature, walk down a street without being recognized, and feel genuine excitement reconnecting with the simple things in life. It may not solve everything but I could literally guarantee that she'd feel a positive difference. Call it intuition (I share a lot of uncanny coincidences with Mariah) or just my observation of Mariah over the years and knowing the person she is beneath the exterior. About me: - Lamb since 1993 - when I first heard Dreamlover in a clothes store. - I can confidently say I wouldn't be where I am today, without her music to help me through so many rough times. - Creator of the "40 Hidden Mariah songs challenge" which is a tribute to Mimi plus fun Easter Egg hunt for the Lambily, you can catch it here if you'd like to try solving it. - Recorded and released my own song in 2 languages based on a wish to "pay forward" what Mariah's music did for me, with a song that gives others hope. Took me just 20 years to make it happen. Have a great weekend everyone and again really nice to meet you all. (Saturday 23 May 2026; 19:26)

Article: Mariah Carey turns out for Gucci Cruise 2027 show (113,829) by Bobby A from United States TEOM era Mariah is back. I am sure being in the studio has ignited something in MC. Let's hope that I am right. (Sunday 17 May 2026; 18:19) this is a reply to message 113,827

Article: Mariah Carey turns out for Gucci Cruise 2027 show (113,827) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands Wow. I adore this outfit. Mariah should be wearing this kind of clothes all the time. (Sunday 17 May 2026; 12:40)

Congratz to MC for topping the Gospel charts (113,809) by Bobby A from United States Jesus I Do has the potential to become as big as Shackles (Praise You) by Mary Mary. Urban AC spins are increasing everyday. We just need MC and the Clark Sisters to perform it live in June. (Wednesday 13 May 2026; 10:33) this is a reply to message 113,808

Congratz to MC for topping the Gospel charts (113,808) by Nikki from usa "Jesus I Do" is now the No. 1 song on Billboard Gospel Airplay. #Billboard: 05/16/2026 "Jesus I Do" Gospel Airplay: 1 (+2) Hot Gospel Songs: 15 (=) Congratulations Mariah Carey & The Clark Sisters.

Should MC release a part two album (113,793) by Bobby A from United States I think MC's recent meetings with Sylvia Rhone and Jimmy Jam and Terry is a huge sign that she is looking for guidance to ensure MC17 returns her to the top of the charts. (Sunday 10 May 2026; 23:00) this is a reply to message 113,771

Should MC release a part two album (113,771) by Bobby A from United States I think MC's next album should be a part two to one of her biggest selling or Lambs' favorite albums from 2005-2018. I would love a Memoirs or Caution part two. The public excitement might be what MC's career needs to take the world back in time when her music made people say hmmm. I think Memoirs: The Final Chapter has a nice sound to it. (Monday 4 May 2026; 23:49)

Gamma (113,791) by Bobby A from United States Bill, you are hilarious. I needed that laugh today. You and me go back like babies with pacifiers. Lol. (Friday 8 May 2026; 03:03) this is a reply to message 113,788

Gamma (113,788) by Bill from the UK I would have been hilarious if Lambi went to all that trouble to get that job as Galatic Head of NDAs at Gamma and then Mariah went and quit lol. I'm just yanking your chain sweetie pie. (Thursday 7 May 2026; 21:35)

I wish MC would (113,790) by Bobby A from United States I wish MC would get back to hard hitting R&B songs like Ribbon, My One and Only, Get Your Number, Circles, It's Like That, and DFAU. I wouldn't mind another Tricky and The-Dream sole production album. I have been obsessed with Memoirs this week because of The-Dream's comments that MC was his most challenging experience in the studio. He clarified it was not meant to be shady, but in the context high-level meticulous studio work. The-Dream described MC perfectly in the studio doing what she does best. Here's to 2027 for MC17 to put MC back on top. I think she wants another 2005 TEOM era that shook the world. (Friday 8 May 2026; 02:33)

Mariah leaving Gamma (113,776) by Bobby A from United States MC seemed unhappy with Gamma earlier this year with no evidence of a real partnership that was promoted before HFIA dropped in September. MC's last straw was probably Larry Jackson saying no to releasing the HFIA deluxe. I feel like Gamma dropped the ball on Play This Song and In Your Feelings with their lack of promotion at radio and Valentine's Day TV ads. Both could have been bigger songs on the Hot 100. It is like Gamma poured all the money into the Type Dangerous video and didn't provide anymore money for other videos and promotion. We have been down this road before for the third time with another one album label. (Wednesday 6 May 2026; 11:44) this is a reply to message 113,775

Mariah leaving Gamma (113,775) by Philipp from Switzerland Nostradamus Insider posted on X (Twitter) that Mariah is leaving Gamma. Here's what they posted: "According to rumors, Mariah Carey is entering into an alliance with an important label in charge of distributing her material but she's retaining the rights to her art. The announcement must arrive prior to her next release. Glitter/SUD will be released under MARIAH. According to my sources, a Sony executive, Sylvia Rhone, has been in recent talks with Mariah Carey. Both have had several meetings recently. Also, Imran Majid, Island Records CEO, has had meetings with Carey and in fact, he has started following her recently." (Wednesday 6 May 2026; 09:19)

Brenda K on relationship with MC (113,772) by Bobby A from United States I think it has been all fun for her being in MC's "world" for a minute. I pretend all the time that was Twista in studio when MC recorded My One and Only. I bet Twista was in awe with MC during that recording night.

Brenda K on relationship with MC (113,768) by Stacey from USA I wish I could give you more than one "thumbs up". (Monday 4 May 2026; 18:58)

The Revival Of Mariah Carey (113,762) by Bobby A from United States I feel MC is about to make us smile again with a rumored duet on Ariana's Petal album. The-Dream is back too this summer with a new album. (Sunday 3 May 2026; 13:40) this is a reply to message 113,761

The Revival Of Mariah Carey (113,761) by Lambi from USA This is all in jest so I'm safe from my NDA. I'm forever cackling at: 9. Scared of Michael Jackson's casket 30. Avoiding wrinkles (courtesy of me) Keep it going. (Sunday 3 May 2026; 13:23)

Rainbow influence (113,737) by Bobby A from United States Me too, Shezz. It reminds me of the AYNAF single cover where MC's hair color was a dark brunette. I think she was with Ariana and JD in the studio that you posted about recently. This summer looks very promising in my drop top cruising the streets in Nashville bouncing to Ariana, JD and hopefully MC. Lol. (Wednesday 29 April 2026; 19:17) this is a reply to message 113,736

Rainbow influence (113,736) by Shezz from Pk Bobby just look at her new album cover. The moment I saw it it screamed "Mariah". She just launched her own sub label - what is it called? Babydoll music. And of course the album being called "Petal". People like to hate on Nostradamous Insider but they have been saying for a month or so before the announcement that Ariana's next album will have a lot of Mariah references. Her first single is supposedly reminiscent of "Breakdown" and she has also been working with JD. If that is true then Mariah was very possibly responsible for setting that up. I hope she features on a prominent song on the album. No hopping on remixes. (Wednesday 29 April 2026; 16:04)

Rainbow influence (113,734) by Bobby A from United States After reading that Ariana's eight album will be called Petals, I can tell that she really thinks the world of Mariah Carey. Ariana has been doing her best to emulate MC for past three years. She is enamored with love for MC. I already see the Rainbow connection and influence with the Eternal Sunshine tour and the Petal summer album drop. I can't wait for Petals to drop on July 31st. Does anyone else feel what Ariana is trying say about her love for MC? (Wednesday 29 April 2026; 07:25)

JD as MC's manager (113,725) by Bobby A from United States I remember in 2012 or 2013 on Twitter when JD and MC were having a brief conversation about the songs they had already done for MIAM. Teddy Riley posted that he wanted to get a joint on the album. His tweet made it seem like he had been talking to JD about joining them in the studio. Does anyone else remember that conversation? This is also around the same time the Bobby Ross Avila of the Avila Brothers posted a picture in the studio with MC, JD, and Johnta Austin after a long night. I wonder will we ever hear the song one day. (Tuesday 28 April 2026; 09:52) this is a reply to message 113,717

JD as MC's manager (113,717) by Lighty from China I still remember for a very long time people on this board have been saying JD's production is old and tiresome and now you're indicating if he had produced some tracks on Caution it would've become a bigger album? No it wouldn't dear Bobby A. Caution is a very cohesive piece of work and got rave reviews on its own. Had JD produced something they would've become WBT part 678910 and do you really want those? And about the JD/Teddy Riley thing, what is your source? I've never heard of Teddy Riley remotely connected with Mariah [except] for the Crybaby sample and The One So So Def Remix sample. If there's some news out there please let me be informed. (Monday 27 April 2026; 19:03)

JD as MC's manager (113,711) by Bobby A from United States I'm just thinking that JD wanted Teddy Riley to produce some tracks on MIAM and MC said no. The Teddy Riley conversation was probably the first manager incident that caused some friction between JD and MC. I just wonder if their relationship has truly been the same after JD walked away as MC's manager. Caution could been bigger if JD had produced at least three songs on Caution. His absence from the recording sessions could explain why Caution only had 10 songs. (Monday 27 April 2026; 03:41)

The Revival Of Mariah Carey (113,710) by Bobby A from United States I listened to HFIA yesterday. Afterwards, I wondered what caused MC's voice to deteroiate to its current state from 2020-2025. Did MC stop practicing all the healthy vocal routines that she used during Charmbraclet to Memoirs eras? I noticed that she doesn't talk about those vocal routines anymore. Did her break-up with Tanaka cause stress that affected her voice anymore? Anyway, I saw an unseen video of MC singing Play This Song solo and it was hard to watch. I hope that she can get some rest this summer and have fun on her new yacht instead of performing. This summer, MC should let Ariana's new album with all the Rainbow influences make her smile and proud. (Sunday 26 April 2026; 23:07) this is a reply to message 113,707

The Revival Of Mariah Carey (113,707) by Jamie from UK Yeah I agree with the vocals, I don’t agree that [In Your Feelings] was the best she could do in all that time or at least in the time she had. (Sunday 26 April 2026; 11:00)

Jesus I Do (113,705) by Bobby A from United States Jesus I Do will be #1 in two weeks. (Saturday 25 April 2026; 21:22) this is a reply to message 113,701

Jesus I Do (113,701) by Giovanni from USA Congratulations to Mariah as "Jesus I do" moves to #4 on the Billboard gospel chart. A truly amazing accomplishment and song. I know a lot of people who like this song and want a gospel album. (Saturday 25 April 2026; 10:03)

Article: Mariah Carey traded her signature gowns for pants in NYC (113,688) by Bobby A from United States I think that performing gets MC all wound up. She should stop performing at least until December to concentrate album projects, being in the studio, and moving into her new home. (Tuesday 21 April 2026; 19:24) this is a reply to message 113,685

Article: Mariah Carey traded her signature gowns for pants in NYC (113,685) by Lighty from China Did you guys see the new TMZ video? Mariah looks the most relaxed in like a really really long time. She's even chewing a gum (or something else). I'm so happy for her. (Tuesday 21 April 2026; 16:20)

Here It For All (113,677) by Bobby A from United States I listened to the ballad HFIA today and you can tell MC's 90s voice is still there underneath all that is ailing her vocal chords. I hope MC finds a doctor who can help improve accessing her range again. I believe miracles can happen if we only have faith the size of a mustard seed. (Monday 20 April 2026; 02:29)
