Mariah at pre Grammy party (105,255) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

Mariah looked stunning last night in the silver dress she wore. Queen gave us a gold and silver look back to back. I hope if she attends tonight, she serves a great look. This will be one of her biggest appearances in recent year. I'm excited to see some celeb interactions.

Mariah lying on a couch looking at the camera while singing the new song would be epic and new.

Video (105,253) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

Depends on the song but I want some high quality videos with storyline and/or replay value. I would also like some celebrity cameos. Caution videos were high quality but did not really have a story line. Like GTFO and With You had Mariah looking stunning and looked high quality but has no replay value especially for non lambs and we need lambs and casual listeners to be hooked if we want a successful era. The Caution videos looked like high quality behind the scenes magazine photo shoots. We can't just have Mariah looking beautiful and posing on camera. We need videos like ILT and WBT, Heartbreaker, Honey, where we had beauty shots but there was replay value plus celeb cameos, also witty videos like TMB.

Video (105,252) by Zachariah from Croatia

What kind of video would you like to be for a new single? Which director? Budget? I loved videos for Caution so I wouldn't mind that vibe.

Mariah coming to Grammy's main event? (105,251) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

She has been at two of the pre-Grammy events this weekend and Halle Bailey said she'll be here on Sunday so it's looking like a possibility.

Taylor Reputation (105,249) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

Taylor is definitely going to announce Reputation TV tonight on Grammys or on her next show in Tokyo in the next few days. I wonder if announcing Mariah’s new work during this time is gonna be smart. Taylor will definitely dominate all headlines.

Mariah coming to Grammy's main event? (105,247) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

Agreed. I think at this point it's a given she'll be there although I haven't seen a seating chart photo of hers yet.

New music announcement coming up (105,246) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

Stop, where did we get this info from? It would make sense with her amping up her public presence. Also I was hearing her website is down. Wonder if they're uploading new album stuff. If the prediction of her releasing something in Q1 is true it would make sense for her to announce it soon. I don't want to get my hopes up but I also can't help but get my hopes up haha. I wonder if this new relationship with the Grammy's is a strategic move on her team who campaigned for her to be an integral part of this year's celebration to put her in the limelight.

Mariah coming to Grammy's main event? (105,245) by Bobby A from United States

Women are dominating the Grammy nominations in major categories. Maybe she will make an appearance to support a big night for women. It would be a good PR move to plug her new album this year.

New music announcement coming up (105,244) by Bobby A from United States

Radio would eat it up. Cardi B always makes it to Top 10 and higher on the Hot 100. Latto has been grabbed by I Don't Know Her and Usher for their new albums. So, why not Cardi B this time? Cardi B definitely gives you memorable lines when she delivers her bars. Could this be the sample of one her hits being used that was mentioned few weeks? Could it be a fun breakup song poking fun at men who don't live up to their expectations? Could this be the London On Da Beat production that I have been waiting on? MC is definitely working on her return to the charts very quietly.

New music announcement coming up (105,243) by Shezz from Pk

According to insiders, Mariah is going to announce new music very soon. She has an upbeat pop/r&b song with Cardi B that is a strong contender for the first single.

Mariah coming to Grammy's main event? (105,242) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

Did y'all see the red carpet interview of Halle Bailey and they ask her about Mariah. It was at the award function Mariah was awarded at, and Halle says she's excited to see Mariah that night and also Sunday, which is Grammy night. I wonder if we're getting a performance. Or maybe she's just going because they recently honored her.

Moody Mariah Nights (105,241) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

I love it and she looks so stunning in video, 1997-2000 Mariah beauty was on a whole other level. Her ad libs at the end gives me life. I love the way she sings the verses it's very similar to WBT, they both have the rap-sing kind of style which leads to the dramatic ad libs on the climax. I don't know if I'm making sense haha.

Independent route? (105,239) by 123 from USA

Hi RA. I heard his new single but it was meh. Without a strong single his album is going to flop. Hoping Mariah has some uptempo bangers. I need two uptempos back to back. After the success of Hiss, Meg The Stallion has a distribution deal with universal where she gets to keep 100 of her masters and publishing and is still independent. I would love something like this for MC.

Moody Mariah Nights (105,238) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

I hope so. I was watching some of her "behind the scenes" from TEOM and interviews and she looked so confident and content that people are finally done writing her off. The Mimi roll out was perfect. She was all over looking like the superstar she is. Then she had the most iconic images for her album, some of her best videos till date, the whole "The Voice is Back" campaign. I hope she can replicate it to some extent.

Moody Mariah Nights (105,237) by Bobby A from United States

Great post Mimi. I think we are in store for something special later this year. I believe she is watching and listening to what others are releasing the first half of the year to perfect what will probably be her most anticipated album since TEOM. I don't want her rush now to just put out what she has recorded. Take your time, Mimi.

Look (105,236) by MusicfanJ from Germany

Mariah looked so beautiful. I had to look twice too, almost like 99 again.

The dress was indeed adventurous.

But her lovely smile is melting icebergs.

Music Box 30 (105,235) by Bill from the UK

My CD arrived Friday, the packaging is beautiful. There's a nice paragraph from Mariah about the album and its impact in the fold out digipak, the booklet has some beautiful pictures from the Dreamlover, AYNAF and Never Forget You photoshoots, plus some others from the era. Many pics I've never seen before. The CDs all sound fab, especially Proctor's Theatre.

You will love it, I got my CD the other day.

Moody Mariah Nights (105,233) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

I'm in a moody Mariah Nights playlist kind of state of mind today haha and I just wanted to come here and express how much I'm in awe of the artist that is Mariah. She definitely does not get credit. Yes she's known for her vocals but Mariah's pen game, her melodies, her hooks, her lyrics, her "ahead of time" musical visions is just otherworldly and genius. The way she uses her voice too should be studied, how she uses her whistles so creatively, how she layers her background vocals, how she creates a wall of music with her voice. People are always in awe of Taylor Swift and how she's a great songwriter and while I agree Taylor is definitely good but Mariah is a thousand times better and just doesn't get enough credit for it. Mariah, if you're reading this, thank you for being the soundtrack to our lives.

Also my playlist has been all over tonight hahah but it includes but is not limited to The Roof, Babydoll, Love Story (the aye baybay always gets me), Side Effects, Thanx 4 Nothing, GTFO, Crybaby (ok so it's 5 am and I still can't sleep took some medicines but it's not working , yussss queen), Don't Forget About Us, My All, Breakdown, Betcha Gon Know.

Tributes (105,232) by Bobby A from United States

These award show producers are catering to an older audience and Grammy donors who don't appreciate MC's versatility after 1993. The powers to be are still sour about R&B/Hip Hop influence that she started with Daydream.

Tributes (105,231) by Norman from USA

I know Tori Kelly can sing better than that. She might've really been nervous singing in front of Mimi. At least Mariah shared her on her IG. And I agree that with such a vast catalog they should find something else.
