"Jesus I Do" scammy submission (114,631) by Bobby A from United States The Dove Awards will be Tuesday, October 6th in Nashville. The edited broadcast will be live on the TBN Plus app on October 9th at 7:30pm ET. Google AI gave me the wrong date when I originally asked a month ago.

"Jesus I Do" scammy submission (114,619) by Bobby A from United States There is a chance JID could be nominated, but MC and Clark Sisters will go up against Tasha Cobbs Leonard, Kenny Lewis and One Voice and Pastor Mike. These three gospel artists had the three biggest gospel songs from September 2025 - August 2026 in terms of radio airplay. Gamma dropped the ball with JID not being officially serviced to gospel and urban ac radio stations. Hopefully, Larry Jackson will promote and service MC's singles for MC17 the proper way. I feel a Memoirs/Butterfly fusion is on the way in 2027. (Thursday 1 October 2026; 21:58)

In Your Feelings (114,630) by Bobby A from United States I feel MC's vocals will sound better on MC17. During 2021-2026, MC experienced a lot of heartbreak during that time. She appeared in recent videos and photos to be feeling better. I hope she plays her cards right by releasing an August 1st single followed by a October album release. By doing it that way she can capitalize on the promoting MC17 and the 2027 holiday season at the same time with her regular U.S. Christmas shows.

In Your Feelings (114,621) by Stacey from USA I absolutely love the arrangements for IFIA, especially IYF. I just wish the vocals matched the arrangements. (Thursday 1 October 2026; 23:48)

Here For It All (114,629) by Jamie from UK I've really connected to Here For It All again recently. I've just been through a really difficult time with depression and anxiety, the worst I've had since it started 30 years ago. Listening to the lyrics in this track have resonated with me on another level and given me hope. I'm now back home after living with my mum for a month and getting back on track. I'm hoping to return to work soon as been off since June. Mariah's music always brings me joy and I've been listening to her a lot recently. After surviving a gruesome fall I feel the clouds are now lifting. I'm looking forward to the Glitter release although she needs to hurry up as I'm getting impatient. Whilst I have contributed as much on here this year I still love to come on daily and read people's posts, it's great to have this sense of community around the person we all love (Saturday 3 October 2026; 11:31)

Debut of the misstep (114,628) by Jamie from UK Oh no I think it's perfect, MTV Unplugged is perfection and then followed my Music Box which in my eyes is the ultimate Mariah album was pure gold. The deep soulful vocals on both are a timeless quality that is hard to beat. People couldn't cope with her change on Butterfly so I think releasing Someone's Ugly Daughter at that point would have been career suicide.

Debut of the misstep (114,627) by Matty from Vancouver Canada I've been playing my Mariah MTV Unplugged album a lot during this Summer to Autumn transition. It accrued to me: did Sony do a massive misstep with releasing a raw and completely live album, followed with Music Box, her most glossy overly produced, slick, perfect by numbers album? I'm a dream world, what if she followed MYV Unplugged with Someone's Ugly Daughter? (Saturday 3 October 2026; 04:24)

Stolen fan artwork (114,626) by pipupass from China It makes me really sad to see this. Mariah herself can't stand copying either (IDKH), but her team still treated a fan like this. I really hope they give this fan a public apology. (Friday 2 October 2026; 18:44) this is a reply to message 114,625

Stolen fan artwork (114,625) by Carlos from Brazil So have you guys seen that Mariah's team is being accused of stealing a fan artwork and used it without permission? It was an illustration of the "Memoirs" album cover on a keychain. Funny part is that they didn't even use something from Glitter on the Glitter merch. (Friday 2 October 2026; 16:09)

In your feelings (114,624) by Giovanni from USA It's been awhile since I posted but I'm still surprised how much I enjoy this song. I think it's the best song on the album. I have not listened to Mariah or any worldly music this year at all. I switched to gospel and Christian worship songs. I don't know why but I got kind of bored with all my favorite songs on my playlists and now that I have gotten older I don't enjoy them anymore. No more Beyonce for me as I don't like her anymore and I find her songs demonic. I like music that is more on a spiritual level now but I just suddenly had the urge to listen to "In your feelings". I'm glad Mariah is still working. May God continue to watch over her and keep her safe. She's really one of the only famous people I actually care about and want making it to Heaven. Patti Labelle and Jennifer Holliday being a few more. I hope everyone here is doing okay. (Friday 2 October 2026; 09:58)

In Your Feelings (114,623) by Lainsky from Philippines The jazz vibe in this song gives it a slightly different sound from her previous releases. Mariah should have released it properly with a well-crafted music video and then followed it up with "Jesus I Do", since it's already out there. It could've made a difference to the album's reception. (Friday 2 October 2026; 07:33) this is a reply to message 114,614

In Your Feelings (114,614) by Bobby A from United States I never thought about In Your Feelings having a jazz influence until I found out co-writer Alissia Benveniste is jazz infusion bassist. I have been listening to a lot of contemporary jazz this evening because of it. I believe a jazz collaboration with Michael League and his band, Snarky Puppy could lead to multiple Grammy nominations and wins. MC needs a unique collaboration in 2027. By the way, MC and The Clark Sisters could win a Dove Award for Jesus I Do on October 2nd. (Thursday 1 October 2026; 07:08)

The Last Living Diva (114,622) by Ma from Germany Hey lambs, have any of you come across the book "The Last Living Diva" by Matthew Stevens? He based it off of his experience as working as Mariah's assistant next to Lianna during the Stella era. In the book, the diva named Alexis Shane is basically Mariah down to the t and Matthew speaks of intense episodes of mania. He even talks about it in this interview. I have to say, even if some of this stuff is dramatized and fictionalized, only to imagine that Mariah might have gone through such dark times makes me so sad for her, she must have been truly so isolated as a human being, after everything she's been through in her life, and she's still surviving, still not able to trust, still controlled, still paranoid. And never really able to heal because nothing about your life is normal. Of course you would crack. If this book is in any way even remotely close to reality, it would also explain a lot about her current state. I just really, really hope she is finally surrounded by people who care about Mariah, the person. And I hope she knows that she is so loved by the lambily and that she saved us in our darkest moments. We see you in your music Mariah, we know who you are. Even when your whole supposed support system failed you, over and over. All my love to you, and whatever grace I can give so you find peace. (Friday 2 October 2026; 01:00)

Patient Zero (114,620) by Stacey from USA I don't get the hoopla over Taylor as well. All her songs sound the same to me. Compare her stuff against Mariah's own writing sessions tracks she has released recently. No comparison at all. (Thursday 1 October 2026; 23:47) this is a reply to message 114,615

Patient Zero (114,615) by TJ from Norway There's some kind of monkey business around Taylor's career. I think it is much easier to manipulate numbers and popularity these days than before. All her songs are the same, a big snore-fest if you ask me. (Thursday 1 October 2026; 11:58)

"Jesus I Do" scammy submission (114,616) by Chicago Lamb from USA Who thinks "Jesus I do" has a chance for Grammy nomination and win? Submission window closed August 21st but we won't know until November 16th when the nominations are announced. (Thursday 1 October 2026; 13:49)

Patient Zero (114,618) by Matty from Vancouver Canada Let's hope so. There's never been a more celebrated talent. I'll give her flowers for her song writing/story telling, but the singing and dancing leaves much to be desired. Also, I know Mariah does this to some extent and the constant re-releases of the same album over and over to get a couple new songs that sound exactly the same is exhausting and I live in a strict no-Swift household, and I'm still exhausted and bored by it all.

MC Christmas (114,617) by pipupass from China I agree with you. Just look at Mariah Carey's makeup artist - his taste has gotten much worse, but she still won't replace him. (Thursday 1 October 2026; 17:18) this is a reply to message 114,596

MC Christmas (114,596) by nancy from Switzerland What I saw on her Facebook page, that there is critique of her not singing live, lethargy etc. When someone writes the truth on her side, her management immediately puts another post to overshadow the truth. They not even accept constructive critique. It's too expensive for a non live show. Not even the playback is done correctly anymore because she is so distracted. There are so many videos on YouTube that prove everything. She doesn't move. The only fast move she does is after the shows when she goes to the Dior, LV store in Aspen to spend the money that her fans earned hardly hoping to get an outstanding experience. And you get absolutely nothing. At least her background singers are professional and motivated. (Friday 25 September 2026; 22:14)

Patient Zero (114,605) by Edward from USA Taylor's "Patient Zero" is expected to debut at #1 on the Hot 100 next week, knocking "Choosin' Texas" out of the top spot. That means "AIWFCIY" would only need to spend two weeks at #1 this holiday season to reclaim the record. Taylor would move to 16 #1s, putting her just three away from tying Mariah. Four more and she ties the Beatles, and five more would give her the all-time record. With Taylor's popularity at its peak, that's probably where this is headed. So I think it's best that we all hold hands, gather around the campfire, and mourn the 19 #1's record now. That way, when it actually happens, maybe it won't hurt quite as much. The one record I'm not so sure Taylor can touch, though, is most cumulative weeks at #1. Mariah is at 101 weeks, while Rihanna is the closest at 60, and Taylor is currently at 49. That's still a pretty big gap. And just like that, the charts are getting somewhat interesting again. (Tuesday 29 September 2026; 03:30)

Fantasy track list (114,613) by MusicfanJ from Germany What a wonderful tracklist. I love all the classics. Timeless music with heart and soul. Mariah and "Summertime" would be very interesting. It's one of the best songs ever and hard to cover. But Mariah and covers are a "dream team". Lately I've been listening a lot to The Verve's "Bittersweet Symphony". What a classic from the late 90ies. It's still so good and always will be. (Wednesday 30 September 2026; 19:44) this is a reply to message 114,610

Fantasy track list (114,610) by Rose from United States I know inspiration doesn't always flow all the time for artists but I would be happy with an album of covers. A concept album of really good songs from the past that fit her current voice. She always makes the songs she covers her own and puts so much emotion into them. I'd like to hear more in her lower range too. For this, I wouldn't even want huge publicity around it. It could be an album (or albums) she releases quietly. I know I'm greedy in regards of Mariah but I can't help it. She's already given us so much, but I want more. I really liked My Prayer and think she could travel down that vein more. My track list: Unforgettable - Nat King Cole It's Magic - Dinah Washington Stardust - Nat King Cole I Only Have Eyes for You - The Flamingos Just My Imagination - The Temptations Summertime - Ella Fitzgerald Life Is but a Dream - Dion Since I Don't Have You - The Skyliners Smoke Gets in Your Eyes - The Platters Unchained Melody - The Righteous Brothers The Impossible Dream - Roberta Flack Bonus: not like the others, but I love them: The Sound of Silence - Simon & Garfunkel Bittersweet Symphony - The Verve Lover, You Should've Come Over - Jeff Buckley (Wednesday 30 September 2026; 02:35)

Patient Zero (114,612) by Lainsky from Philippines Well, this is good news, and it would be even better if it happened. This is funny, Edward: "We all hold hands, gather around the campfire, and mourn the 19 #1s record now." However, you got a point there. I also hope that this could be Taylor's verge of a downturn in popularity because of the aforementioned criticism in that paper. I mean, come on. Most artists tend to experience a decline in popularity after about 20 years in their careers. (Wednesday 30 September 2026; 12:37) this is a reply to message 114,605

23 Weeks (114,607) by Rose from United States I’ve never even heard "Old Town Road" or "Choosin' Texas". Not even once. Who is buying these records? (Tuesday 29 September 2026; 08:53) this is a reply to message 114,593

23 Weeks (114,593) by Edward from USA Remember when debuting at #1 on the Hot 100 actually felt like a huge accomplishment? Now Ariana has done it eight times. "One Sweet Day" held the record for 23 years, 4 months and 13 days. It took Mariah 6 years and 5 months to reclaim it, and now, just 8 months and 19 days later, it's broken again. I don't know if you see the trend here. I wouldn't have minded if "Despacito", a worldwide phenomenon, or "A Bar Song (Tipsy)", which was absolutely everywhere in the US, had taken the record. But "Old Town Road" and "Choosin' Texas"? Nah. Sorry. I've always followed the charts, but this is getting so frustrating that I'm probably going to stop paying so much attention. At this point, some of it just doesn't make sense to me anymore. (Friday 25 September 2026; 15:13)
