Commercial success debate (70,293) by Chicago Lamb from USA Isn't it common sense that an artist isn't going to sell as many records, have their songs played on the radio, fall out of favor with the general public after a certain amount of time? I mean, come on. She's not going to just keep recording #1, top 10, or top 40 singles her entire career. What she has managed to do since her commercial peak is quite obvious, otherwise we wouldn't be here, a part of it. Can we just appreciate what we have now? I'm looking forward to seeing her in March along side Lionel Richie (tickets purchased). Happy Holidays to all. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 16:48)

Re: Test (70,280) (70,292) by darrian liu from taiwan No, that's not what I meant. Obviously Mariah still has hits after her Columbia years, what I meant is which songs from her extensive collection of hit songs are the most remembered by the public, not just achieving chart success. Like, which hits stick to people's head to this day. Because not all hits will be remembered long. For example, compare Whitney's I Will Always Love You to How Will I Know. Both are two of Nippy's 11 number ones, but I Will Always Love You is still sung and played across the world, while only some remember How Will I Know. Both are hit songs, but I Will Always Love You certainly has more impact. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 15:35)

Re: Beyonce and JLo can dress trashy and it's ok (70,275) (70,290) by MusicfanJ from Germany I just can't wait until this bra era and extremely sexualized cheap looking is over. Mariah deserves better than this. And I bet some day she will regret that "phase". Please Mariah, next year a classy and sensual style. And even in casual jeans she was always beautiful.

Re: Merry Christmas (70,285) (70,289) by Lannister from USA Would love to echo that sentiment. Merry Christmas to all. And big up to the queen of Christmas. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 14:14)

Re: A galaxy far, far away (70,266) (70,288) by Tijl from Belgium Did I have too many festive splashes or have the replies to my original post completely gone out of hand? Well, wishing you all a lovely and festive Christmas. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 14:07)

Re: Beyonce and JLo can dress trashy and it's ok (70,274) (70,287) by TJ from Norway Still a difference. Mariah doesn't dance and she shows too much boobs in a wrong way. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 13:57)

Re: Beyonce and JLo can dress trashy and it's ok (70,283) (70,286) by TJ from Norway I agree, and that's what I was trying to say in my previous post as well. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 13:53)

Merry Christmas (70,285) by Lila from United States To everyone. I hope you all have an amazing and memorable day. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 13:01)

Re: Streaming (70,273) (70,284) by ktktkt from Philippines We still have next year though lol. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 11:59)

Re: Beyonce and JLo can dress trashy and it's ok (70,275) (70,283) by JAXGH from United States It's Mariah's boobs that separates her from the other 2. She flaunts that sh*t like it's her last day on earth. B's and JLo's are actually real so it's not too visually stimulating. It gives you that "wow those are nice, what a beautiful natural woman" thoughts. While Mariah's abnormally ginormous. B And Jlo are also athletes, they have toned bodies. People see more than just boobs. They dance and work. So they're seen as "strong" and fighters. While Mariah just lays on a sofa. With her tig ol bitties hanging out. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 10:09)

Mariah's attempts (70,282) by JAXGH from United States Mariah doesn't know how to brand herself out. This blog thing she's starting really isn't gonna make people any more interested in her. Stella if you're reading this, buy a $500 dslr camera and hire an artistic, stellar photographer who will essentially be in charged of Mariah's social media. Who's also great at editing pictures. Stop trying to make your 12 year old in charge. She has no photography talent whatsoever. I look at Mariah's instagram and cringe. Horrible framed pictures, uneven filters and lame old, skanky, uninteresting shots. No one wants to follow who encompass these. It's sad how Kim K's instagram is a lot more beautiful to look at.

(70,281) by Andrew from UK Merry Christmas. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 8:50)

Re: Test (70,263) (70,280) by steven from usa After her split from Mottola, she had many hits. Honey, My all, Breakdown, When you believe, Heartbreaker, TGIFY, Loverboy, WBT, DFAU, TMB, Obsessed. I think you want to know if her commercial success declined after she left Columbia Records? (Sunday 25 December 2016; 4:29)

Re: Beyonce and JLo can dress trashy and it's ok (70,275) (70,279) by Manny from U.S. Mariah brought a new meaning to "Oh Holy Night" when she wore that red body suit at the Beacon. That rendition is more like "Oh Hole-y Night" since you can almost see her hole. I hate to critique her but I also couldn't believe she wore that "ensemble" or others this season either. We will see what she has in store next year. Merry Christmas guys. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 3:41)

Re: Streaming (70,273) (70,278) by darrian liu from taiwan There's possibility it will jump significantly up the charts next week, so idk. Not 19th number one, but 28th top 10 is more likely. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 3:17)

Merry Christmas everyone (70,277) by Merr Hasenan from Malaysia Just want to wish Mariah and all lambs a wonderful Christmas and a Happy 2017. Now, i'm listening to One Child, an underrated gem. Hope Mariah will give us more on songs like this one. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 3:15)

Just want to say (70,276) by darrian liu from taiwan Merry, merry Christmas to all of you (or Happy Holidays for those who don't celebrate Christmas). Wishing y'all good tidings and Christmas cheer. (Sunday 25 December 2016; 2:02)

Re: Beyonce and JLo can dress trashy and it's ok (70,272) (70,275) by Mirage_Nunez from America Beyoncé and JLo have actually worn more revealing ensembles than MC (especially on stage). It's just that Mariah bust size makes her look more over the top sexual, whereas if she had the same bustline from 97, it wouldn't look as dramatic. Also Bey and JLo mostly show off their booty, whereas MC mostly show cleavage. The one thing I would give them over MC is that they do have more of a balance as far as covering up at appropriate times. I agree with everyone on singing gospel and low cut ensembles don't compliment each other whatsoever. She's so wrong for that "Here Comes Santa Claus" dress as well. Like someone said in an earlier post I wouldn't mind a little cleavage if there was a balance and the timing was appropriate, but at this rate even I can't defend her half of the time. But I'm sure this "Ob-Breast" era is just a phase and she'll switch it up in the new year. It's interesting though, when you look back and compare last year's Beacon ensembles which were so beautiful and elegant, to this year's which was more Vegas showgirl inspired. Now let's remember this was the era where everyone complained about her wearing too many long dresses and they wanted sexy down to earth MC back, so let's be careful what we wish for. (Even though I know people just want a balance but still.) (Saturday 24 December 2016; 23:39)

Beyonce and JLo can dress trashy and it's ok (70,272) (70,274) by Ty from USA Lies. Have you seem Jlo's booty video? Or the live performances? Or her green Grammy dress? She's always naked. (Saturday 24 December 2016; 23:31)

Streaming (70,273) by Eduardo from Mexico AIWFCIY is first in worlwide iTunes charts, 3rd in Spotify 200 and 11 in USA iTunes chart (so lets say goodbye to 19th number one). (Saturday 24 December 2016; 23:07)

Re: Beyonce and JLo can dress trashy and it's ok (70,267) (70,272) by TJ from Norway I don't think that J.Lo or Beyonce dresses as trashy as Mariah. They do sexy, but not trashy. Mariah want people to look at her silicone boobs and her behind at the same time. They cover up more than her. I don't think it's properly to dress like that when you sing religious songs. The more she shows the less I care for her. 26 years as a fan. Will it be another 26 years? I'm not sure. I'm 40 and don't act like I'm 12, and I hope she will act her age soon. Kids don't jump on the Mariah wagon just because she like to think she is eternal young. Most of my friends has no respect for her as an artist, because she lives in this weird world of her. She actually reminds me of Witney before her career and life ended. Sadly. (Saturday 24 December 2016; 20:22)

Fun Dem babies throwback geniuses (70,271) by RibbonB from USA In the spirit of the holidays, thought I would share this adorable throwback video of Roc and Roe with Nick. They really are smart kids. Roe is hilarious echoing Roc's answers with her "smoker's voice", Roc is just adorable and smart. I hope Nick's health is improving and that he soon gets to spend some more quality time with his kids for the holidays. (Saturday 24 December 2016; 19:04)

Re: Beyonce and Jlo can dress trashy and it's ok (70,267) (70,270) by Licia from USA I can't speak for everybody else, but I don't want ball gown Mariah. I want the Mariah who knows when it's appropriate to have her tits out and when not to. If J.Lo or Beyonce was singing about Christmas and Jesus with their tits and cooch out I'd have a problem. She's going to dress however she wants regardless, but she needs to know when it's acceptable and when it's not. I think my breasts are awesome and I'm guilty of wearing low cut tops, but I know when to do it and when not to. (Saturday 24 December 2016; 13:45)

Re: New website (70,262) (70,269) by RibbonB from USA Mischka is probably managing the site too. Lol. Isn't it all so weird? (Saturday 24 December 2016; 13:42)
