About Danny Braden from Uk: A Mariah fan to the end

Empire state of mind (41,274) by Danny Braden from Uk What I'm currently seeing as a fan is a woman being treated like a legend and superstar but the public not buying into tag literally. Any radio show/TV show etc is going to be high profile with Mariah as a guest but other than that I don't think she will reclaim her commercial power due irrelevance and I mean that in the kindest way. Her image does not fit into any market at the moment. If you look at the UK iTunes charts it's all about one hit wonders with a guitar or dance beat. Also I don't think she has a mental health problem. I think by her own admission she has insecurity so imagine being under scrutiny live on TV and she knows we all sit and judge her she mentioned this live on radio the other day (you will all talk about me when I leave I know you will). She is always thinking and worrying about her image which in turn she's having a negative effect on it. She needs a good PR team to help with this. She should celebrate she's a foxy 40-something international superstar who can enjoy the second half of her career basking in her achievements, releasing musk when she feels able to.

Isacc (40,818) by Danny Braden from Uk One thing having an opinion and a voice, the other is being arrogant and aggressive. And you need to change your approach if you want respect on the message-board, otherwise see twitter. (Tuesday 28 January 2014; 13:50)

The problem (40,068) by Danny Braden from Uk The problem I think in my mind is the fact that Mariah doesn't bring the money in anymore, hence small gigs, limited promotion and lack of a solid release for an album. It's almost gone back to the beginning of her career, but without a gimmick or element of surprise. And maybe it doesn't matter, we still love her and she still is relevant and present. But I think that's what we are seeing is lack of financial support and creative direction from the label and management and Mariah herself, it seems that her balance of family and work may sometimes come into conflict if she wants a hit album with limited promotion. Mariah will always make money and music, but I won't be surprised if she ventures into production, movies and song writing for others in the future. She can still make hits, just not sure the public buy into her image anymore. (Thursday 5 December 2013; 16:42)
