Re: This is America (82,424) (82,431) by Anonymous from One of the most conscious songs I've ever heard. The video is so powerful. CG has smashed it. The message is loud and clear. Well done. (Thursday 17 May 2018; 07:49)

MC lost weight because of JLo (82,430) by Nikki from usa I call BS. First problem - Mariah discounts numbers and has anniversaries. She pays no mind to age. Second problem - Mariah hasn't "known" J.Lo for a decade, I don't see that changing now. It looks like J.Lo's team is trying to get publicity for her. I'll believe it when I see a quote rather than a "source" that's "close to her". (Thursday 17 May 2018; 07:32)

Re: Baring all (82,429) by Nikki from usa I'd doubt she do a true nude. She usually does some form of peek-a-boo like she did with her 2003 calendar. I don't mind the sexy pics, but I hope she doesn't do a full on. (Thursday 17 May 2018; 06:46)

Re: This is America (82,424) (82,428) by RibbonB from USA Truthful shade though. (Thursday 17 May 2018; 03:11)

Mariah Carey lost weight because of JLo (82,427) by Dove from United States If this is true I'm glad she's saying something positive about Jennifer Lopez. It puts the "fued" behind them. I'm not a fan of Jennifer as a singer but she does always look great. She inspires me to take care of myself too. (Thursday 17 May 2018; 00:26)

Creating a new sound (82,426) by Bobby A from United States I feel MC is well on her way to creating a new sound. First, she looks amazing. I can't believe the Mother's Day photo and what it is saying to those body shamers right now. She is looking so sexy with every new photo. I am sure this new sexiness has boosted her confidence and stirred up her old songwriting style. Remember when MC used big vocabulary words and her lyrics had depth. She lost her big vocabulary and lyrical depth after Butterfly. Second, in order to create a new sound, she has to work with new songwriters and producers. So Jermaine Dupri and Bryan Michael Cox are out and who is hot right now is in. A fast style of singing is out and just her voice and piano is in. I believe her voice will be like Daydream and before. Well, only time will tell. (Thursday 17 May 2018; 00:14)

MC baring all (82,425) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) With everything going in positive direction this would be a major step backward. I highly doubt that she risk it with everything going in her favor right now. It would not help matters I highly doubt that this will see the light of day so don't hold your breath.

Re: This is America (82,421) (82,424) by Licia from USA He likes to think outside of the box musically. It would be cool to see what they could come up with. The shade of that last sentence took me out. (Wednesday 16 May 2018; 22:55)

Re: Mariah Carey is "considering baring all" (82,419) (82,423) by Licia from USA I took it as they were trying to say since she's had the surgery that she indulging. It could be interpreted either way. Lol. (Wednesday 16 May 2018; 22:52)

Re: My thoughts on Stella (82,416) (82,422) by Bill from the UK Agreed, and she has completely shot herself in the foot with her behaviour since her and Mariah parted ways. What artist of Mariah's standing (or any standing for that matter) would ever take her on as their manager after all of this? I get why she's suing everything that moves, it's likely her only source of income now. (Wednesday 16 May 2018; 20:53)

This is America (82,421) by RibbonB from USA Congratulations to Childish Gambino, for his meteoric rise to number one right out of the gate. Great video, message and excellent roll out. The video has 126 million views and quickly counting. That is good stuff. Needless to say he is probably too busy to work with Lil Mimi, that is if she actually had a project coming out in the next year. (Wednesday 16 May 2018; 18:33)

Article: Mariah Carey is "considering baring all" in a naked shoot (82,420) by Matthew from USA After announcing your struggle with mental illness, the last thing you want to do as your next public move is go naked. She needs to reinforce that she is grounded and present. A woman, mother, survivor, and yes, a diva (though she may want to play down the kooky diva and play up the earthy humanitarian diva). (Wednesday 16 May 2018; 18:11)

Re: Mariah Carey is "considering baring all" (82,415) (82,419) by RibbonB from USA I agree, this is fake news, but they were alluding to the drinking and high calorie in take as the reasons for the alleged surgery. (Wednesday 16 May 2018; 17:15)

Article: Mariah Carey is "considering baring all" in a naked shoot (82,418) by Chicago Lamb from USA That has got to be fake news. No way Roc-Nation is recommending a nude photo shoot. Personally speaking as a long time fan, this endeavor would prove fruitless. (Wednesday 16 May 2018; 15:04)

Re: First impressions of TEOM (82,409) (82,417) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines As I was still in high school when TEOM came out, I had very limited budget and bought it on cassette. I always liked It's Like That but I have to admit I wasn't instantly sold on We Belong Together - I think that just shows how fresh that sound was for her because to me it was a bit disorienting (especially the song structure, where the first verse is different from the second and the absence of a middle-eight) after having gotten used to the standard Mariah fair for so long. I remember loving Mine Again, Say Somethin', Circles, Your Girl, I Wish You Knew and Fly Like A Bird from the get go. Everything else kind of grew on me, except One And Only, which is still the song I play least from the album. Say Somethin' was very interesting because it had so much of The Neptunes' influence - the thumping, clattering beats, the somewhat strange melodies/harmonies. Mine Again and Your Girl stood out as well for their beautifully oversung, impossible-to-replicate-live-under-normal-circumstances vocals. Still, I knew from first listen that it was her strongest set since Butterfly. She definitely had arrived. It was palpable that she had something to prove - it was almost as if she was starting over again. It was a glorious period, probably the proudest time to be a lamb just because of how much she was able to overcome. (Wednesday 16 May 2018; 13:58)

Re: My thoughts on Stella (82,412) (82,416) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Truest thing I've read all day. What's great about Mariah's situation today is that everything is kept hush-hush once again, just like the old days. Mariah did a lot of stupid s*** during "Stella's reign of terra" but Mariah's World was the biggest red flag of all. Any manager who tries to upstage the artist they manage for the whole world to see is really in it for themselves. There was a great line uttered by Rachel on the season 2 of unReal - "We don't solve problems; we point cameras at them" or something to that effect. That is unfortunately exactly what Mariah let Stella do during that dark period. Thankfully that's over and Mariah-related news since Stella got fired has been predominantly positive. The only disgusting negative ones involve, well, Stella - no surprise there. She is like negativity in human form. Like a personal raincloud that follows you around always casting a dark shadow on everything. As if we ever needed any more confirmation of this - but Stella-era Mariah and current Mariah are like night and day. (Wednesday 16 May 2018; 13:27)

Mariah Carey is "considering baring all" (82,415) by Licia from USA First of all did noone at The Sun notice before they printed the article that they said Mariah had two different surgeries? Lol. Second of all there's no way she's having a calorie fest because with having either of those surgeries if she's not continuing to eat right or exercise the weight will pile back on. Third of all the whole naked thing isn't news. The only time her baring it all would be shocking is if she went full Playboy bunny spread eagle. I honestly don't believe she'll do that. Throw that whole article away. (Wednesday 16 May 2018; 12:56)

Re: (82,413) (82,414) by Mara from United States Maxwell, yes. There were rumors about that a few years ago. He tweeted something alluding to a possible song already done or in the works. Still wonder whatever happened to that. (Tuesday 15 May 2018; 14:58)

Re: (82,411) (82,413) by Billy from Greece Maxwell, yes. We love Maxwell. (Tuesday 15 May 2018; 13:16)

My thoughts on Stella (82,412) by Dove from United States After watching Mariah's World here are my thoughts on Stella: It rubbed me the wrong way the way she talked about the assistant and the dancer who didn't want to ride on the same bus with Mary Ann's son. The way she said, "It's a job, just do the dance and shut up." Or something like that. I feel like she didn't value him or the assistant and saw them as less than her. I don't agree with that. I feel like it creates a hostile work environment and adds unnecessary stress. Or when Mary Ann was venting about the situation and after she left Stella said something about Mariah being the least high maintenance out of everyone. I think everyone's concerns were valid and she could have handled them better. She made a drama out of things that weren't that serious and talked down to almost everyone. The staff had to resort to going directly to Mariah because Stella was such a b*tch when one of her roles was to manage these types of situations so Mariah wouldn't have to worry about them. In a business I believe every person is a part of the team and the show runs better when employees are valued and treated with common courtesy and respect. Another thing that annoyed me was when she wrote all over the white bed linen with makeup. Even after Mariah asked her to stop. She was pressing so hard too, as if she were angry. To me this shows she's not a person of character because she has no regard for people who she deems as less than herself, such as the person who would have to get that makeup out. She's probably one of those people we see at Target who sees a shirt on the floor but instead of picking it up they drive over it with their cart. Also, the situation with the picture her daughter took. To her it was more important that it went viral than the fact that it was trashy and her client was uncomfortable with it. After watching Mariah's World, I'm glad MC severed ties with Stella. Mariah Carey deserves a manager with class who can communicate with employees with authority without being nasty and unprofessional. (Tuesday 15 May 2018; 09:54)

(82,411) by Bobby A from United States I am crossing my fingers with this new era that we finally get an original male duet. I would love to see a Maxwell collaboration. It is long overdue. Maybe one with the new neo soul singer Daniel Ceasar or hip hop crooner August Alsina or versatile Childish Gambino. MC is so particular who she collaborates with. She has to really feel the artist and like their energy. Thus, in 2015 we got #Beautiful with Miguel. No more cover songs in this era though. (Tuesday 15 May 2018; 02:20)

It's A&B, see? (82,410) by Andrew from UK TEOM on the first listen was brilliant as it was a new sound and banging - until side B, so to speak, where it was the usual cooing R&B filler. The sequel was the same: the B-side was a remarkably different record to the A-side. Memoirs was all side B but MIAMLGBTQ had an A-side and a B-side just with resequencing (mostly side B before A, give or take). Mariah should keep it short and sweet with attitude and pump and no filler. Thus, as I think many fans want, a ten track album would suffice. A thousand Mariah's cooing over slow-jam-sex-synths was never one of her signature sounds and nothing anybody anywhere was really asking of her. A bit like her blowing up her titties and taking her clothes off. Nobody wanted it. Except for maybe my older brothers. And they haven't bought anything of hers in fifteen years. Funny that.

Re: First impressions of TEOM (82,406) (82,409) by Dav from Ireland I remember I had just bought my first iPod and the CD. I went to my friends house to upload it onto my iPod as I didn't have a computer. While it was uploading we listened to ILT, my friend liked it, I didn't think much. Then WBT came on, and I was not impressed. This was not another Hero, Butterfly etc. With its quick style of singing. We stopped there as the CD had uploaded onto my iPod and my friend wasn't a Mariah fan. I ran home to listen to the rest, it was all a bit meh for me until Stay the Night. I was blown away and suddenly got the vibe of the album. By the time Joy Ride came on I was thrilled, she was back. I still love Stay the Night and Joyride above all. I can't wait to listen to MC15.

Mariah looking fly on Mother's Day (82,408) by Kevyn from Germany Our nonbronzed skinny legend of 18 #1's and queen of gastric sleeve is looking fly as phuck. I can't wait until Stella sues Mariah because she is to slender for this earth. My queen is wearing the same size as dem kids. (Monday 14 May 2018; 22:35)

Re: Mariah in Blackpool (82,373) (82,407) by Anonymous from Hey Lee and Anthony. I'm going to Blackpool. Really excited. I've just purchased general tickets on this occasion. I'm going to make a weekend of it with my bestie. Booked a nice B&B. If anyone would like to meet please feel free to message me. I'm meeting some fans prior to the show starting, the more the merrier. cvjade07@aol.com (Monday 14 May 2018; 20:18)
