Re: I Know What You Want (73,300) (73,312) by B from USA You're forgetting U Make Me Wanna which along with IKWYW provided the perfect one two punch she needed at the time. Especially considering TEOM is an R&B album. (Thursday 2 March 2017; 20:40)

Frustrated fan (73,309) by Danny from Uk Mariah has somehow managed to genuinely frustrate her fans and I think it's because we have invested so much of our own time, worry, love and devotion for her and her career. I think we are a unique fan base in that we genuinely want her to succeed not just for us but because she deserves it. We don't want to see a strong woman who in my eyes doesn't seem so strong right now. I have always had a conflicting opinion of Stella. Sometimes I think she's good for Mariah and that we are just disgruntled, then there's a worry that she really is insidious and shields Mariah from not just the truth but protection if that makes sense. We all wanted more and more Mariah and we got it in Mariah's World, maybe not in the way we expected but ladies and gentlemen that there is a woman stripped bear left vulnerable to the elements and if she hasn't got music to save her then I hope she finds it in her children.

Article: Mariah Carey, Joe Jonas not feuding, despite report (73,308) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I didn't even know this was a thing. Haha it's so random, like why would there even be a feud in the first place and yet Mariah's team responds to this instead of stuff that is directly harming her image. I'm sure Mishka lost her mind when she read one of her idols is apparently feuding with her employer so she went to her and demanded a statement be issued so as not to ruin her chances with him. She probably threw in an ass related compliment too. (Thursday 2 March 2017; 19:16)

Busta collab (73,307) by Lila from United States I just hope the song is good. That's all I got. (Thursday 2 March 2017; 17:35)

Re: Memoirs one of Mariah's all around best albums (73,304) (73,306) by T from USA Maybe Memoirs would've been beyond "Perfect" if she included the song she worked on with Timbaland at the time. It would've broken up the one critic people have of being too samesy. Plus shortening it to 12 tracks would've given it a better punch. A track-list like this would've made it rival Butterfly in terms of epicness: 1. Obsessed 2. Betcha Gon' Know 3. Hate You 4. Candy Bling 5. Ribbon 6. Skydiving 7. Inseparable 8. Standing O 9. It's A Wrap 10. More Than Just Friends 11. Angels Cry 12. Languishing (Thursday 2 March 2017; 16:28)

Re: I Know What You Want (73,300) (73,305) by Shezz from Pk Is it a coincidence that you brought it up the day her next collab was leaked? (Thursday 2 March 2017; 16:16)

Re: Memoirs one of Mariah's all around best albums (73,271) (73,304) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines This is what I love about this board, because I get to see different opinions about Mariah's music. It's great that you love MOAIA and that you compare it to Butterfly, because I think the exact opposite. It sounds more like Rainbow to me - I remember posting such comparison here years ago - similarities include more obvious filler, interludes... To me what lets it down is the same-y production, which is mostly due to its rushed nature. A little too cohesive for its own good. But it is still home to 3 songs that showcase Mariah's brilliant vivid storytelling (Betcha Gon' Know, Candy Bling, It's A Wrap) 3 songs with unfulfilled hit potential (H.A.T.E.U., Ribbon, Angels Cry) and one interlude that should have been a full song like the Rainbow Interlude was (Languishing).

Mariah and Busta (73,303) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Mariah will be featured on a Busta Rhymes track. Don't know if this is the same track she said is coming this month, but seems like it since she did say something about how her friend will be upset if she spills the details. Heard a few second snippet, it's a upbeat so I'm excited. (Thursday 2 March 2017; 14:30)

Mariah and Busta's new song (73,302) by Malcolm from Asia So apparently that "friend" is Busta Rhymes. I don't know what to feel about this because of what's happening to her career right now, all those rumors about dropping her by Epic Records etc. Her musical career is like floating right now, it doesn't have no direction at all and I don't know what to expect. She better wake up to all the non sense, she used to be a musical genius and alluring person but now, all seems off. She's lucky she has this great catalog to cling on to. Sigh. I hope that this next song is great because if not, what's the point of releasing singles if it isn't successful? Better yet just put an amazing album that the fans will appreciate and stop competing with these young girls, leave that to JLo. Just have a credible career that you used to have and to set a great example for your children while they're growing up. (Thursday 2 March 2017; 14:12)

Re: I don't begrudge Mariah's relationships (73,294) (73,301) by Lila from United States I'm always completely floored when someone says that this idiot is good with the twins. I've seen no behavior that says that he's good with the twins or any one else's kids. He sits next to them for 20 minutes or carries Monroe on his shoulders and he's "good with them"? Goodness, there are too many clueless adults, with very low standards, in the world. (Thursday 2 March 2017; 12:59)

I Know What You Want (73,300) by T from USA This past week I was thinking about Mariah's big comeback to the commercial success she had in 2005-2010. Everyone (including me) links her success to We Belong Together. But even though WBT was the song that actually sealed her legacy for good and helped sell TEOM ten million copies world wide, I think there was a song before it that actually brought her back to peak commercial performance. I'm talking about IKWYW in 2003. The song was so hot and went Top 10 in about twenty countries world wide, not to mention #3 on the Billboard 100 and the UK at a time she couldn't buy a hit. I'm convinced that this song is what set up her comeback. WBT sealed it. But It's Like That benefited from her new found commercial success and I think Mariah herslef knows that because she still performs it over other songs in her live shows.

Re: Mariah and Stella in a relationship? (73,296) (73,299) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Mariah's personality before Stella was this extremely talented and super mysterious singer who would grace us with her presence and voice and then go back to her secret life, one we didn't know much about but we wanted to know and it kept us guessing. She had this thing where whenever she'd throw crumbs of her personal life at the fans, we'd be delighted and ohh-ahh over getting to see a glimpse of what this pop star is behind closed doors. Now she is so overexposed we are basically begging her to be more secretive. She has lost that mystery allure that she had about her that made people want to know more about her. See what Mariah used to be like is what Beyoncé is now. We don't know what she does once she's off stage, we want to know but we don't, we only get little snippets through her Instagram, that makes Beyoncé more appealing, that made Mariah more appealing. Yes there were PDA shots of her, a very recent one would be her racy moments with Nick on V-Day, but even then it was once in a blue moon thing she when we would be surprised. Now it's so frequent and staged, it leaves us, to put it bluntly, disgusted. I saw this Access Hollywood segment on her and there they were talking about how she needs to calm down and stop trying to feel the need to do crazy stunts to compete with the newer girls because she is on a league of her own and part of the top stars and because of her recent antics people are no longer laughing with her but laughing at her. They also talked about how her new manager and her crazy team including a bunch of amateurs and a 12 year managing her social media is like Trump's White House. It's crazy, her image is a mess, her performances are a hit or miss, she doesn't seem to care about taking care of her voice and she is on this publicity route where she basically seems to have lost control of the vehicle.

Re: Postponed (73,288) (73,298) by B from USA I received a similarly email that said I would receive an email with the new dates as soon as they are available. (Thursday 2 March 2017; 2:45)

Re: Mariah and Stella in a relationship? (73,290) (73,297) by B from USA Anthony Burrell was the creative director in charge of the Complex photo shoot. (Thursday 2 March 2017; 2:39)

Re: Mariah and Stella in a relationship? (73,290) (73,296) by B from USA I think Mariah should keep her personal life private like she did before Stella. If she is a lesbian or bisexual it wouldn't change how I feel about her but I can understand why she'd think it coming you would ruin her image. (Thursday 2 March 2017; 2:35)

Re: Nikki (73,291) (73,295) by Edward from USA Nikki, I love your unique ability to close your eyes and pretend that the emperor has clothes on. By following your method, when I close my eyes, I can clearly see Mariah's Instagram, Facebook and Official website from 1990-2008. It's full of pictures of Mariah's public display of affection with Tommy, Derek, Luis Miguel, and Nick. I think you're kinda psychic. You should try and see if you can tell when it's going to rain.

Re: I don't begrudge Mariah's relationships (73,292) (73,294) by RibbonB from USA Mariah was not his employee. I didn't make Tonka out as daddy replacement, you did by implying that he is good with the kids and saying that is a good thing. Nick and Mariah divorced, by mutual agreement and you don't know how often he sees the kids or what the logistics are. You know what TMZ says. Silly people prefer to glorify hired hands. Mariah will learn, or not. (Wednesday 1 March 2017; 23:54)

Re: Mariah and Stella in a relationship? (73,290) (73,293) by T from USA Them being in a "relationship" was a joke, but in all seriousness Mariah is more committed to Stella then she has been in any other of her romantic relationships (excluding Nick). (Wednesday 1 March 2017; 23:24)

Re: I don't begrudge Mariah's relationships (73,292) by Nikki from usa Mariah's life isn't compartmentalized. Whoever she's with will be around her kids period. Just because the relationship isn't deep or serious doesn't mean it's short lived or won't lead to something down the road. Mariah may not want to go that route. If she anticipates him sticking around awhile then he's going to get to know the kids because they go with her everywhere. The kids are around everyone of Mariah's squad, not just who she's dating at the moment. They see people coming and going which is the life in the fast lane. It would be reckless and irresponsible of Mariah to put her kids in a bubble with no way of dealing with the real world she lives in. Their dad didn't stick around and primarily sees them on holidays when their mother pays for him to be there. Packer was supposed to be the new in-law and that lasted less than 2 years. How many nannies have the kids been through? How many different bodyguards? I'd say the kids see coming and going as normal. What you seem to be confusing is that Mariah is somehow introducing him as their new father or something. But, that's not how he's presented in photos with the kids. I've never seen the kids around when he and Mariah are doing things together as a couple, so there's no reason to assume he's being presented as a father to the kids to latch onto. He's just another entourage member helping out. I guess if you believe he's a paid escort than Mariah was Mottola's hooker while she was dating him by your ideology. (Wednesday 1 March 2017; 23:00)

Re: Edward (73,291) by Nikki from usa Everything you're stating is your personal perception. The fact of the matter is Mariah has always done public PDA with her love life and posted it. Mariah doesn't look desperate. The media is interested in her love life and she gave a closed mouth kiss. It's not that deep or different to how she kissed Packer in the past. (Wednesday 1 March 2017; 22:42)

Re: Mariah and Stella in a relationship? (73,289) (73,290) by RibbonB from USA Mariah has overturned a lot of what she used to say. She is being very "fake" this era. Plastic, "Illuminati" like illusions with her Complex magazine cover, drunk, cheater, golddigger images depicted on a reality show, which she refuses to call a reality show. Now she has a male prostitute/dancer living in her home? But people keep thinking she has a master plan? Lol. Stella did say they are sister wives, maybe she has Mimi in some devilish pact. Stella is such a flop and she is dragging Mariah down right along with her. I do hope Mimi will be able to cut ties with this loser. Yet another L for the year. (Wednesday 1 March 2017; 21:25)

Re: Mariah and Stella in a relationship? (73,285) (73,289) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Can someone tell me why Stella's dad is going around the world with Mariah? Tommy knowledge Stella didn't give him a decorative position yet, so what's his excuse? Stella basically making Mariah do concerts all year round so that Mariah can afford to fly Stella's whole family around the word and making her rent a huge mansion in LA (when she has a perfectly great apartment in NY) so that Stella doesn't have to stay in a separate place. Gotta give props to Stella, Mariah basically broke up with Nick because Nick was mostly in LA and M said she's a NY gal so she won't stay in LA and then she started feeling abandoned by Stella got Mariah to leave NY and come to LA.

Postponed (73,288) by Jeff from USA I just received an email from Ticketmaster. The May 15th show has been "rescheduled" but without a new date. Getting a refund now. (Wednesday 1 March 2017; 19:16)
