Re: With You (87,400) (87,441) by B from USA #Beautiful was a horrible first single? (Saturday 5 January 2019; 23:13)

Re: With You (87,433) (87,440) by B from USA Which songs do you like from MIAMTEC and Caution? (Saturday 5 January 2019; 23:01)

Re: With You (87,400) (87,439) by Special K from USA Randy, what is wrong with celebrating the fact Mariah is having some success on the Urban AC chart? This woman is dang near 50 years old. Come on. Aren't the expectations of having a hit single on the Pop charts just a bit too high? Mariah should be compared to her contemporaries. Folks like Toni Braxton, Maxwell, and Mary who all rule the Urban AC charts. Long As I Live by TB did hit number one however for WY to reach number eight isn't bad. Caution is a critically acclaimed album and so far, it does have a hit Urban R&B AC single. To me Mariah has managed to pull her music career out of the gutter and lifted it to curb.

Re: Mariah's opinion (87,428) (87,438) by Special K from USA If she laid off the drank, drank. I think her voice would be in better shape. (Saturday 5 January 2019; 21:33)

Re: Andrew gone (87,411) (87,437) by Special K from USA Oh my goodness why are you dissing my song? I love Boy I Need You. (Saturday 5 January 2019; 21:31)

Re: With You (87,429) (87,436) by Special K from USA I have always said WY is boring as hell but it does get played on those R&B stations that play no Hip Hop. Me personally I think it's a good thing that Mariah is having some success in the R&B Urban Contemporoary market. We tend to forget she is pushing 50. That market is really the only market that will play her music. What's interesting is that BET Soul is playing the music video GTFO way more than the WY video. (Saturday 5 January 2019; 21:29)

Article: Mariah Carey shows off a toned figure (87,435) by Lee from USA Where's the scars? I mean, if she had gastric bypass surgery, then bikinis should be a no-no, right? I had surgery over a decade ago, and still had scars today. (Saturday 5 January 2019; 20:21)

Re: With You (87,429) (87,434) by B from USA I have. (Saturday 5 January 2019; 20:19)

Re: With You (87,427) (87,433) by Randy from USA I didn't know I wouldn't like it. Unlike others, I don't listen before I buy it. I just buy it the day it comes out. The way it was done pre-internet and illegal downloads. I figured the first singles were horrible but that I would be able to salvage the rest. There's usually a song or two on a Mariah album that I'm not a fan of (except on Butterfly, Daydream and Rainbow). So for these two albums to only have three songs I like a piece, I've concluded she and I are going in two separate musical directions. I now prefer music made by 30 year old Adele which feels more mature and deeper than 48 year old MC. (Saturday 5 January 2019; 15:00)

Re: With You (87,417) (87,432) by B from USA What should we be complaining about? What misstep has Mariah made recently that we're praising? (Saturday 5 January 2019; 14:00)

Re: With You (87,421) (87,431) by B from USA I agree that every move she's made, including releasing With You, is part of a strategic plan to rehabilitate Mariah's public image and so far they've succeeded. I'm looking forward to seeing what Mariah and her team have in store for 2019. (Saturday 5 January 2019; 13:58)

Caution (87,430) by Lainsky from Philippines I am seeing revival and campaign already about this album. Well, I understand these concerns for I feel the same way. However, I also believe it's a bit early. Mariah still has a tour and a promotion for this album. We can wait for it in the meantime. Meanwhile, let's just hope that she will release very soon a follow up single or two. I believe the title track Caution should be released with a video as well as Giving Me Life. These songs might have the potential to pull some sales for the album or, if not, for the listening public to at least request, play, stream, download or anything that songs today are being measured for.

Re: With You (87,423) (87,429) by RibbonB from USA Honestly, has anyone heard the song on the radio? I live in one of the largest markets in the US, Los Angeles and it never gets played here. With You seems too boring to interest so called casual listeners. (Saturday 5 January 2019; 05:22)

Re: Mariah's opinion (87,416) (87,428) by Licia from USA She's never going to talk about her vocal issues. It would be a great discussion though. I agree she probably feels the general public will go after her more. We give her alot of crap for the lipsyncing, but I believe that if she was just honest with us we'd be more understanding of the situation. The general public and the media will just take this discussion as an opportunity to blast her. (Saturday 5 January 2019; 03:44)

Re: With You (87,400) (87,427) by B from USA Why buy an album you don't like? (Saturday 5 January 2019; 02:12)

Re: Mariah's opinion (87,414) (87,426) by B from USA I don't think Mariah will address her voice (vocal decline/issues) until she retires from releasing albums and touring. However, I don't think Mariah's going to retire anytime soon. I think she will continue write and record albums until she passes like Aretha did. Who knows maybe she'll do so in her memoirs. (Saturday 5 January 2019; 00:52)

Re: #Rescue Caution Campaign (87,420) (87,425) by B from USA Seems a little premature to me since only one single has been released. I suggest waiting to see how the second single does. If it is the A No No remix with Missy Elliot and Lil Kim and possibly Cardi B it might not be needed. (Saturday 5 January 2019; 00:23)

Re: Mariah the living legend (87,415) (87,424) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway Yes, I have every CD and multiple copies of some albums, a lot of singles, DVD's, and a few LP's including all the singles from "The Emancipation of Mimi", a dj exclusive double pack of CC Music Factory remixes of "Everytime You Need a Friend" and "Merry Christmas". (Saturday 5 January 2019; 00:22)

Re: With You (87,421) (87,423) by B from USA With You was chosen as the first single because it's the perfect song to reintroduce Mariah Carey to casual listeners. Mariah's single being a success on Adult Contemporary and R&B radio is impressive considering LA Reid said just getting her song played on the radio was an accomplishment in 2015. R&B music is no longer considered popular music. Mariah is an R&B artist not a pop artist. She's never been a pop artist, she happened to debut when R&B was considered pop music.

While... (87,422) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) While we as a family continue to be a little dysfunctional at times about any and everything regarding MC. She seems to be enjoying some fun and family time which let’s me know she is very much at peace and content with where she is in life. We must remember that the commercial success of MC’s glory days will never happen again because the industry has changed as a whole at this point we should be glad that MC still enjoys making music and just being creative because she can call it day and be fine. (Friday 4 January 2019; 20:30)

With You (87,421) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Was only serviced to A/C and A/C R&B stations as her team was going for rebranding her with that particular audience. Also if anyone has paid attention most of her radio press stops were geared to the older audiences besides a few other than that I believe that her team had a plan going into this era fixing her public image and I feel like that they have done that. The critical accolades is what MC has always wanted and she has finally gotten that so I feel like she is in a happy place right now. (Friday 4 January 2019; 20:01)

#Rescue Caution Campaign (87,420) by Bobby A from United States I want to start a #Rescue Caution Campaign with 8th Grade as the 2nd single on Twitter starting tomorrow. Who is willing to join me? At this point, 8th Grade is the song that can save Caution from being a totally flop. Something has to be done since the very first Caution World Tour show in Dallas has not sold out. I suspect the same for the other dates too. I hope the tour isn't cancelled or downsized. (Friday 4 January 2019; 19:49)

Re: Missing Columbia cassettes (87,409) (87,419) by Bobby A from United States Thank you, Bill. I will look it up later today. (Friday 4 January 2019; 19:38)

Re: With You (87,400) (87,418) by Edward from USA Randy, is your email still r*************20@yahoo.com? (Friday 4 January 2019; 18:44)

Re: With You (87,400) (87,417) by Edward from USA Randy, we're all holding hands drowned in happiness on this board now that "devil" is gone. Real fans are coming back to the board to form a coalition so Mariah could have another #1. Don't be another one of his stans. (Friday 4 January 2019; 18:34)
