Unpopular opinion - alternate universe (109,692) by Lambi from USA
But Mariah will not be able to pursue having 4 kids at 47. Having Roc and Roe at 42 was already a freaking miracle. I feel that was the absolute limit. These are super fun though. Very creative.

Unpopular opinion - alternate universe (109,691) by Bobby A from United States
We all just want the album title and release date at this point. It seems there is not much excitement for the TD remixes. While MC and Gamma seem to be waiting on the stars to align and a Buck Rogers in the 25th Century tv series reboot, Ciara gave a brillant performance and interview on the Today show yesterday in support of her upcoming CiCi album dropping on August 22nd. Craig David and JoJo dropped their beautiful duet yesterday in support of his Committment album dropping on August 8th. MC and Gamma have got to step up and get this MC16 ball rolling before Sabrina Carpenter drops her next single in support of her Man's Best Friend album dropping August 29th.

Adding one more:
One of Mariah's best acting performance is in The-Dream's My Love video.

Unpopular opinion - alternate universe (109,689) by Edward from USA
Welcome to the Twilight Zone, my dear. You've just stepped into the alternate-twin-universe version of the MCArchives Messageboard, where logic takes naps, reason time-travels, fetch did happen, Mariah made up the word emblazoned and the webmaster might actually be your cat. Be careful, things are not what they seem in here.

This is not an alternate universe; it's another galaxy/Borg planet/something.

Unpopular opinion - alternate universe (109,687) by Rashidi Rahim Rick from Malaysia
2008: Mariah never married Nick in 2008. Roc and Roe never happened to Mariah. Because of marriage never happened, Mariah continues promoting E=MC2 and released Migrate as second single and became her 19th No 1.

2009: Mariah released her album Imperfect Angel and the second single after Obsessed is 100% and the song is the theme song for Precious and became her 20th No 1.

2010: Mariah received her first Oscar award for Best Original Song and even performed the song 100% and ended with standing ovation from the audience.

2011: Mariah performed her world tour to celebrate all her 20 No 1 songs.

2012: Mariah became a judge in American Idol where the 3 panel of judges were Randy, Mariah and Keith. No drama whatsoever among the judges for this.

2013: Mariah released her album The Art Of Letting Go (the original tracklist) and #Beautiful became her 21th No 1. Mariah also released You Don't Know What To Do as second single and the song became her 22nd No 1 song on Hot 100.

2014: Mariah released Out Here On My Own as the third single from the album and this song became Mariah's hit for power ballad that reminded the public of Mariah from the 90's. This song tops the chart as her 23rd No 1. I always felt this song should be in The Art Of Letting Go album because it fits the theme of old school of R&B sound.

2015: Mariah released her album Dedicated (all new songs recorded just like in Me I Am Mariah) and the summer single Thirsty became her 24th No 1. The concept of the video is from Mariah's Game of War commercial in 2015 where Mariah is one of the princess warriors. The video is comedy style like Touch My Body. The video is funded by that game company too. The second single is Cool On You and became her 25th No 1.

2016: Mariah married Derek Jeter and have 4 kids with him. Just like Derek's life now in this universe.

2018: Mariah released "Proceed With Caution" album. Mariah had said, I forgot which interview, that she thought of naming this album as this. A No No is the leading single and it became her 26th No 1.

2019: All I Want For Christmas became her 27th No 1.

2020: Covid happened. End.

Mariah sealed her career with 27th No 1 as 27 is her favorite number, her birth date.

Great thoughts, some are very sad but could be true. I love this comment "every day Long Island girl". Long Island girl would be a good title for her album.

Unpopular opinions (109,685) by MusicfanJ from Germany
Yes, I always say Tommy wasn't good for her private life, but for the music and for the business he was the best. He knew what he was doing, the years from the debut to 96 are the reason why she's the legend since late 90ies.

TD remixes (109,684) by Bobby A from United States
Not much of resung vocals and new lyrics for the new remixes. The Brazil Funk is the best one. I like that MC sampled Obsessed. Anyway, bring on the 2nd single and MC16. MC has a lot of new album competition each Friday in August from Renee Rapp, Craig David, Good Charlotte, Machine Gun Kelly, The Black Keys, Maroon 5, Conan Gray, Lainey Wilson, Ciara, Mariah The Scientist, Zach Top, and Sabrina Carpenter.

Can someone explain? (109,682) by Tevin from USA
Ok so other than the bad sound quality, which pretty much plagued all of the Rainbow album minus Heartbreaker and AAO, why is Did I Do That so vilified?

Unpopular opinions (109,681) by Brad from USA
- Mariah is not one person, but actually several persons playing the role of Mariah. Therefore, accounting for the extreme variations in appearance, personality and voice quality over the years and during short periods of time.
- She is actually not a diva at all. But a pretty ordinary old soul at heart, just making up the diva persona to try to be interesting because at her heart she's a grounded, traditional, old school, values-driven, every day Long Island girl.
- At the time, Tommy and Walter were the best darn things that she could ever imagine would (or that did) happen to her life and career. At the time.
- The hurt that Nick Cannon has caused her with his 12 children and all the brief "interlude" relationships Mariah has had, hurt her far, far more than Tommy really ever did.
- It would not have been such a bad life to stay at "Sing, Sing" and travel down that path. Not the life she wanted for herself, admittedly, but not a bad life in and of itself.
- She has a great deal of regret for how things were left with her sister and even her mom and she knows in her heart that will never be resolved in this lifetime. An authentic sorrow she will harbor for the rest of her time.
- She isn't sure what MC 16 will really be. Some are saying its great, some not so much. She's happy to have public interest in her music other than just at Christmas time and doesn't really know why that interest ever went away. She doesn't have many expectations of it and will truly be fascinated to see if it can even do anything commercially at all. She thought she said good-bye with "Portrait" but maybe she will be saying good-bye with how she really thinks of things now, with "Going up Yonder".
- Anderson is nothing but a moment. She knows she will always be OHOHO.

Unpopular opinions (109,680) by Lambi from USA
1. Mariah's left side was actually bad. It's only now that she fixed her crooked teeth that it's not bothersome.

2. Long Ago, Fly Away (Butterfly Reprise) ruined the albums they're in.

3. Fly Like A Bird should've been sung in full voice.

4. Majority of Rarities was rightfully scrapped with the exception of Slipping Away and One Night.

5. I Don't Wanna Cry and Someday were mid and weren't deserving of #1.

6. However, "Breakdown" "Underneath The Stars", "Never Too Far" "Through The Rain", "Mine Again", "Migrate", "Love Story (if made acoustic)", "It's A Wrap", "Inseparable", "A No No" all had the potential to be major hits or at least be more relevant when ever her catalogue is brought up.

7. Lambs are unhinged but in a loving crazy way.

Justin Beiber (109,679) by Bobby A from United States
I wish MC would just drop MC16 like Justin Beiber is doing tomorrow with his 7th studio album, Swag. No singles. No promo. Just dropping his album with some buzzing high profile features and a Billboard announcement in Iceland today. That is the way you do it after a long absence. Swag will probably be what everyone is talking about tomorrow. It looks like there won't be any physical copies right away. I know I am curious now what he says on Swag. Could MC drop her album out of nowhere and be successful?

TD remixes (109,677) by Haiji from United States
Hopefully these remixes are worth it. When TD first dropped, I wanted 2 main remixes, one with Cardi and one with Rakim and I still want those, but in my head I pictured an all-star remix like Busta's Touch It Remix, so I'm hoping for the same with the God's Remix. Once that drops, other rappers should join and make it a Tiktok challenge. I'm not sure why her or the label thought we needed a Big Sean remix though. I'd rather have Bryson Tiller instead. The DJ Snake remix sounds like it could be a club mix and the Brazil Remix could be a spanglish mix ala #Beautiful/Hermosa Remix. Hopefully all or most of these remixes are re-sung and re-worked versions and not a copy and paste situation.

Totally agree with you about Tommy's control of her voice made a difference. That was the money maker and he knew it.

Unpopular opinions (109,674) by Bill from the UK
1. The Butterfly and Emancipation albums are good, but not great.
2. I Don't should have been on Caution.
3. The Art of Letting Go was the better album title.
4. All I Want for Christmas Is You is lyrically, musically, and compositionally the best thing she has ever done, and the best thing she will ever do. It will never be topped.
5. She needs to stop trying to chart. Those days are gone for her.
6. She looked better and came across better when under Tommy's guidance and management.

Unpopular opinions (109,669) by Bobby A from United States
1. I wanted JD to stay MC's manager longer than he did.
2. MC should have done a complete country soundtrack for the movie Tenneseee. I wanted more songs with Willie Nelson and other country artists.
3. Melt Away should have been a single. A viral moment on Tiktok and vinyl release like It's A Wrap would have been nice in 2024.
4. A No No should have been the lead single for Caution.
5. Cool On You should have made the final tracklist for E=MC2.
6. I love Bryan-Michael Cox's collaborations with MC alone. 4 Real 4 Real and For The Record are their best collaborations.
7. If this summery second single doesn't become a bigger Hot 100 hit, MC16's overall success is going to be very low. I don't know what plan Gamma has for the 2nd single's release, but I am starting to worry now since TD is fading fast in a lot of people's minds.

I'm glad Did I Do That gets the love it deserves. It's the best song on Rainbow and Rainbow is my favorite album. My all time favorite song is Everything Fades Away, second is Do You Think of Me.
