Re: Since Lauryn Hill (78,532) (78,537) by B from USA Fancy by Iggy was the last rap song by a female to hit #1 on the Hot 100. (Monday 25 September 2017; 19:32)

Re: Beacon (78,534) (78,536) by Edward from USA Eric, shame on you. Mariah is going to correct all that with her new reality show and her new line of shoes called "Stellatos". (Monday 25 September 2017; 19:18)

Re: Beacon (78,526) (78,535) by Edward from USA I agree. I've been to her shows at The Beacon Theater, and it felt like the Charmbracelet tour, intimate. The venue in Las Vegas would definitely bring her more money. She's clearly after money now, I don't understand the desperation though. I know making an album wouldn't really bring her any money because she's not popular like that anymore, but I always thought of Mariah as an artist with integrity, not a sell out. Before we would have time to miss her, now she's everywhere and in everything as if she didn't have a dime. If she at least carried Hershel differently, but I'm always hoping not to see her singing "Shake If Off" while working out on high heels on the treadmill. How could you go from being a supreme icon to this? I've often wondered. (Monday 25 September 2017; 19:15)

Re: Beacon (78,533) (78,534) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands How could I forget the two highlights of Mariah's career: American Idol and Mariah's World. (Monday 25 September 2017; 18:52)

Re: Beacon (78,529) (78,533) by Bill from the UK That awful diabetes inducing Butterfly drink she was flogging at Walgreens too. (Monday 25 September 2017; 18:41)

Since Lauryn Hill (78,532) by Terna from Nigeria Cardi B just dethroned Taylor Swift. This is a big deal. The last female rapper to sit on the Billboard Hot 100 was Lauryn Hill in 1998. Damn. Social media is on fire right now. Lol. (Monday 25 September 2017; 18:39)

Re: Beacon (78,526) (78,531) by Licia from USA The money was the first thing I thought, but I didn't want to be the bad guy and say it. I'm trying to be a better lamb. Lol. (Monday 25 September 2017; 18:00)

Re: Beacon (78,529) (78,530) by Sheila from United States I forgot about the dictator concerts, but if you google it, it comes up in the news. Does she really need this money? She's worth 500 million. (Monday 25 September 2017; 17:09)

Re: Beacon (78,528) (78,529) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands You really want to know what Mariah would do for money? I don't remember all the side projects, because I'm only interested in Mariah the singer, but here it goes: private concerts for dictators, shoes, jewelry, make-up, perfumes, water, wodka, soda, candy, children books, (animated) movies. Feel free to complete the list if you can think of other things Mariah did for money. (Monday 25 September 2017; 14:58)

Re: Beacon (78,526) (78,528) by Edouard from France What? (Monday 25 September 2017; 14:50)

Re: Memoirs (78,521) (78,527) by Mara from United States Billy you are so right about Memoirs being a great "fall album". There is something about BGK and HATEU, those ethereal whistles in Angels Prelude, Languishing. I love that album. Butterfly is another great fall album. Those were the days MC always released her singles in the summer and her albums dropped in the fall. It was such a perfect formula. (Monday 25 September 2017; 14:35)

Re: Beacon (78,525) (78,526) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands We all know that Mariah would do anything for money, so I guess Christmas in Vegas earns her more money than Christmas in New York. (Monday 25 September 2017; 13:48)

Re: Beacon (78,520) (78,525) by Licia from USA I'm curious about the reasoning behind moving the show from NYC/The Beacon to Vegas. I have nothing against Vegas, but Christmas in New York is sort of her thing. (Monday 25 September 2017; 13:34)

Forgotten jams (78,524) by Jeff from USA We all have our faves, but I was wondering if there is anyone out there like me that "re-discovers" a song that sweeps you up in the moment and goes on repeat for a day or so. I had that experience this morning with "Stay the Night". I've been jamming to it for hours. (Monday 25 September 2017; 13:08)

Re: Beacon is always festive, but Vegas? (78,523) by Sheila from United States Not sure this is a good idea, the Beacon is full of lambs, new fans, old fans, shopping tourists, just a packed house. Vegas is not really festive at holiday time, who goes to Vegas at holiday time? (Monday 25 September 2017; 11:44)

Re: EMC stripped versions of MC songs (78,513) (78,522) by May from Denmark I also came across it a couple of days ago, I was going to comment on it too and I think it's amazing. This one video in particular got me to listen to the entire Butterfly album again, aside the from the 20 years celebratory moment. Babydoll is such a sweet song but with the time I completely lost interest, really hadn't listened to it entirely for about a year. It was one of those forgotten songs that I didn't feel like returning to. I heard this version and I thought how incredible Mariah voice was when it came to runs. Love the whole thing. I already listened to it a fair amount of times. So nice to go back to an oldie and enjoy it as much as the first time. (Monday 25 September 2017; 10:02)

Memoirs (78,521) by Billy from Greece You know years have really gone by in no time when you feel nostalgic about "Memoirs". Without realizing it is its eight year anniversary today, I've started playing the album this morning. It really is the album for the fall. "Betcha Gon' Know" is such a masterpiece, as is "HATEU". So strange that "Memoirs" feels somehow "old" at this point. (Monday 25 September 2017; 10:01)

Beacon (78,520) by Mara from United States So do we think she will add a few Beacon dates this December? It doesn't seem possible unless she goes for the beginning of December before Vegas and the other shows. I know some of the articles mentioned NYC, but that could just be because of the previous years. I wish she would confirm it either way if she indeed knows either way by now. It's something she has done since the start of these shows and she made it seem like it was an annual thing "at the Beacon". The last few years tickets went on sale later in October. Anyone have any "inside info"? (Monday 25 September 2017; 02:58)

Re: Christmas tickets (78,504) (78,519) by Anthony Carey from U.K Hey Lamb. Yes I got my Manchester ticket last week. Something Mariah related that has actually not been delayed or arrived late lol. I too feel excited to see her perform Christmas in UK and then I fly to Las Vegas the following day to see her at Caesars. (Sunday 24 September 2017; 23:51)

Re: EMC stripped versions of MC songs (78,513) (78,518) by Licia from USA Whomever or whatever the EMC is I think I love them and I want more. Lol I hadn't seen this ABMB one. Thanks for sharing. (Sunday 24 September 2017; 22:07)

Re: Mariah's dress (78,517) by Nicole from US I am thinking what most of you are thinking but what if the weight and dress choices are part of a publicity. And then all of a sudden she loses the weight and goes back slaying. But I may just be reaching for the stars but I am just being optimistic. Lol. (Sunday 24 September 2017; 21:40)

Article: Mariah's dress is held together by crystal-covered snaps (78,516) by Robin Elkins from United States Either she needs a new stylest or she needs to start dressing her age. (Sunday 24 September 2017; 18:13)

Re: EMC stripped versions of MC songs (78,513) (78,515) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines I believe EMC stands for the name of the posting YouTube channel, EtrevistandoMC. (Sunday 24 September 2017; 17:21)

Re: EMC stripped versions of MC songs (78,513) (78,514) by Bill from the UK You beat me to it (exclamation mark). There are also very pleasant stripped versions of AYNAF and I Still Believe. The acapella of AYNAF is on that great Mariah's Vocals channel for any of y'all interested. It goes all the way out to the extended ending. I would love to hear the acapellas for Vision of Love, Can't Let Go and Without You. (Sunday 24 September 2017; 16:10)

EMC stripped versions of MC songs (78,513) by Lee from UK I have come across a few videos like this on YouTube. They are EMC stripped versions of Mariah's studio recordings. I do not know what EMC stands for, perhaps someone can enlighten me? This particular video contains the ending of Always Be My Baby that Mariah used during the Daydream tour. It makes for amazing listening on a Sunday afternoon. Enjoy. (Sunday 24 September 2017; 14:54)
