Messageboard

Re: Billboard Hot R&B Songs (84,510) (84,515) by B from USA I think Epic, Mariah, and Roc Nation assumed GTFO would just go viral and are pleasantly suprised by its continued success which is mention in the press release for With You. I'd say they'll continue to push both at different formats. (Monday 8 October 2018; 01:41)

Nick Cannon's mind games (84,514) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Obviously Nick knows mentioning MC will keep the world interested because if we notice he is very protective of his youngest son and his mom and he does not talk about them much because he knows that people and especially the media have no real interest in them. Honestly he says he cannot be anyone's bubble yet he is still in Mariah's bubble without being in her everyday life nowadays because every interview he does she is somehow brought up. As with her she will say they are great co-parents and they kids spend time with him and she moves on to other topics. Honestly Nick knows Mariah is still a big fish in this entertainment world and he will never encounter anyone bigger or on her level, and more importantly I don't see him wanting to be with another woman on that level.

Re: With You (84,509) (84,513) by Atwood from NY "Make sure to tune in for what promises to be an unforgettable performance." As much as I love Mariah and "With You", I am questioning how they can create a unforgettable performance. Lol, will Mariah actually be at the award show? Or will she be performing from a different location? Will Mariah and JLo actually come together for once. It is very odd that both performers are being advertised as performing their song for the first time ever. Makes you wonder. (Monday 8 October 2018; 00:20)

Re: BT (84,499) (84,512) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands Welcome RhondaC to the MCArchives family. Just like most families, we have a grumpy nephew, some fanatic uncles and loving aunts. I hope you will like it here. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 23:46)

Re: M should work with Solange (84,495) (84,511) by MC1989 from Spain That would be amazing. In fact, GTFO has a very Solange sound. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 22:40)

Re: Billboard Hot R&B Songs (84,473) (84,510) by Special K from USA GTFO is a better song. Hopefully the plan is to promote both songs. I heard GTFO on the radio today. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 21:36)

With You (84,509) by B from USA Here's a link to the official press release for With You. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 21:26)

Re: Billboard Hot R&B Songs (84,473) (84,508) by Bobby A from United States And it is no where to be found on the chart dated October 6. If With You doesn't chart on the Hot 100, Hot AC, and Adult AC, MC15 is DOA. It looks like deja vu all over again with these single releases. None of them seem to catch on with radio and buying public. It's almost like a conspiracy to keep MC from gerting her 19th number one. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 18:55)

Re: Nick Cannon’s mind games (84,486) (84,507) by Special K from USA I'm not so sure that Nick is over Mariah. I don't think he will ever be. I mean yeah he has said many times it's over and he will never go back but maybe that's because he knows Mariah would never take him back. Sure, there is plenty he could say but I'm sure there is plenty Mariah can say too. Nick just looks like a sad little puppy dog since he and Mariah broke up. I truly hope he finds happiness.

Re: Maybe it's time to pass the pen (84,496) (84,506) by MusicfanJ from Germany Hello Licia, yes this is the James Poyser I had on my mind. It's not like I want her to make pop and no Rnb. In my youth I only listened to Rnb and some Hip-Hop too. It was the great 90ies Rnb which I still love. But most of the Rnb today feels heart- and soulless to me. Rihanna for example is not a pleasure to listen to, but I love Whitney and Toni Braxton. It's hard to describe, maybe you know what I mean. And I'm getting older too. I love all the great soul artists. Stevie Wonder, Aretha, Bill Withers, Sam Cooke, all the legends. And some young like John Legend, Leon Bridges, Bruno Mars, Alicia Keys. But the "hot" things on the radio today and charts with EDM and modern Rnb, it all sounds the same to me. It doesn't touch my heart, nor my feet to dance. My fear is that the album will sound like everything on the radio. Of course we don't know now. If I'm wrong, perfect. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 18:06)

Re: Maybe it's time to pass the pen (84,496) (84,505) by Bobby A from United States Josh Hoge's album is called Everything She Was. It slipped my mind earlier. It's really a great album. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 17:55)

Classic Mariah (84,504) by Hector from Mexico I'd love to hear Mariah in a more mature sound. Maybe the Walter colaboration is out of the picture, but I truly believe that Marc Shaiman would be great for her. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 17:23)

Re: Maybe it's time to pass the pen (84,480) (84,503) by B from USA Agreed. Besides, after producing Celine's My Heart Will Go On and winning the Grammy for non-classical producer of the year he's faded into obscurity and only makes headlines when discussing his past work with Mariah or when he attempts to shade her by saying she makes up words and fails (abandonedly and emblazone). Mariah should have her good friend Santa Claus bring Waler a thesaurus for Christmas. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 17:15)

Re: Maybe it's time to pass the pen (84,496) (84,502) by Bobby A from United States What happens from her on is going to be really interesting. If MC15 doesn't drop before Thanksgiving, we will know that has been pushed back to 2019. What is the point of releasing an album without a hit single to drive sales? Look at Liam Payne and Zayn. They both failed to get a hit single for their albums. Liam released an EP to hold us over and Zayn stopped releasing singles after the Timbaland single and went back into the studio. She just needs another meeting of minds with Jay Z, Tyran Smith and Jay Brown if no album in 2018. I can wait until 2019 at this point if means she really collaborates with other people who can really give her a hot song and a new sound for the charts. Try Mike Will Made it again or T-Minus or Babyface. I would love for her to work with traditional country songwriters like Ashley Gorley and Josh Hoge. Both of them could help Mariah create a new sound that would make the masses notice. Josh Hoge released a solo album that was really a good album full of R&B and Pop influences but the masses never bought it. Check him out on YouTube with his song 360 and others. His voice is so full of textures that it would make you say - Who is that singing? I checked out his mother at Walgreens in Nashille. She was so proud of her sons Josh and Will. Will is also a singer in Nashville. The point is she better have other great songs on MC15 or go back into studio until she gets it right. Let's see what happens after the AMAs. But I really now that no album until Spring 2019. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 17:10)

Re: Nick Cannon’s mind games (84,494) (84,501) by Fresh from USA You sound patently uneducated. You obviously don't know how magazine companies work. How you can mold interviews and how you have a say on what can be released. Pretty amazing how out of that hour long interview, Mariah's section is the only one that's sensationalized, magically. Specifically about the start of the romance, which supposedly is irrelevant now because they're "divorced". But "somehow" he was asked about it. Again "molding" the interview. Lmao. It totally flew over your head. Nick knows about the subconscious, and you don't lol. Learn how to read before you come for me. Darling. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 16:26)

Re: M should work with Solange (84,495) (84,500) by RibbonB from USA Solange is on video saying she has written some songs for Mariah and that she wanted to work with her. Hopefully that will happen. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 16:08)

BT (84,499) by RhondaC from UK I was thinking, if Bryan is the source material for the song and he's been "lovin (you) since that Bone Thugs song", then he fell in love with Mariah when he was 14. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 15:53)

Re: Mariah (84,476) (84,498) by Scott from USA I'm one of the reasons she's become lazy? Can you and a lot of the other people on this board please grow up? As I said before, everyone is entitled to an opinion, but too many people here think their opinion is the only opinion. Insight needed. I think I'll make the wise move of abandoning this message board. It's become ridiculous. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 15:52)

I can appreciate (84,497) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) I can definitely appreciate that both songs released so far are with current producers but still have MC's touch because at this moment in her career she could be trying to sound like someone else just for the sake of wanting to say relevant and I also love how some of these other writers and producers are praising MC for her pen game. Personally I have to disagree with some of you who feel like she should pass the pen this is apart of who she is as an artist, even Tommy Mottola himself said that it was Mariah who made him appreciate the importance of writing and how great of a writer she is. I say that to say this, I understand that we all expect different things when it comes to MC but I feel like this album will have some treats for everybody, but time will tell. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 15:41)

Re: Maybe it's time to pass the pen (84,487) (84,496) by Licia from USA Isn't James Poyser a part of the hip/hop and r&b music you don't want her to do? Unless we're talking about two different people. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 15:23)

M should work with Solange (84,495) by Lexingz from Estonia You know what? I think MC should look into working, writing, dueting with Solange. She is super talented and their voices and sensibilities should mesh brilliantly. Also, she is one of the most "current" and "cool" female singer/songwriters around right now. And Solange is one of the artists who has great artistic vision and clarity about what she portrays. Just check out her songs like "Cranes" or "Don't touch my hair". I don't want Mariah to work with Beyonce, I prefer Solange because I find her way more interesting artistically and even vocally than Bey (who is powerhouse performer and great singer but whose studio albums I find boring and unlistenable). (Sunday 7 October 2018; 15:20)

Re: Nick Cannon’s mind games (84,484) (84,494) by Lila from United States You sound paranoid and pressed. Nick has said countless times that he and Mariah are not getting back together. The end. The only people who are worried about Nick wanting to get back with Mariah are fans like you because ya'll want to feel as though he's sitting around eating his heart out when all his actions say otherwise. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 15:18)

Portraits by Walter A (84,493) by T from USA I imagine what a retrospective song would sound like if it was produced and co-written by Mariah's long time old collaborator who literally was there for a big portion of Mariah's career. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 15:13)

Re: Nick Cannon’s mind games (84,486) (84,492) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada If you really listen to his Vlad segments objectively he was honest while being respectful of Mariah, yes he can talk sometimes and be inappropriate, but he is not the bad guy some people make him out to be either. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 15:08)

Re: Maybe it's time to pass the pen (84,487) (84,491) by T from USA But we already have Adele now. And Celine Dion. I do agree that going back to "her roots" may be the only reinvention she has left and might pleasantly surprise the charts. Let her have one more hip youth orientated album before she hits 50 though. (Sunday 7 October 2018; 15:00)
