MC remix album (105,650) by jaker20 from US I'm sure this is going to cause a stir here, but I'm here for it. Like a vol 2 of her OG remix album, and add in new ones and new collabs. Mariah's now done 2 remixes and they're both bops, and it seems like an easy releases for her hardly lifting a finger lol, meanwhile her album is taking forever. Don't come at me, it's just an idea. What do you all think? (Wednesday 21 February 2024; 20:16)

SNL (105,667) by Chris from United States I third this notion. If this turns into a WAP situation, I'm just going to have to bounce. I can't, and won't defend that mess. If this is a Bruno Mars "Finness" type moment, I'll stay aboard the ship. (Thursday 22 February 2024; 16:31) this is a reply to message 105,664

General public or bad decisions (105,666) by Tevin from USA I agree, Caution was such a vibe. (Thursday 22 February 2024; 15:32) this is a reply to message 105,657

General public or bad decisions (105,657) by enwar00 from usa I love GTFO. Such a slinky song. So glad it opened the album. So underrated. I'll always stan Caution. What a vibe. (Thursday 22 February 2024; 06:29)

General public or bad decisions (105,665) by Chris from United States You just said that she was happy during I Don't, and now you say she wasn't happy during the Stella era. This was all one long run-on era. This woman didn't know what she was doing, and let that maniac take full control and fly the damn plane. Notice how she mentions nothing during this era? She doesn't even acknowledge that Takaka dude. He vanished and made some irrelevant statements. She hasn't said spit, which tells me it was either all fake, or she completely regrets that moment, and placed it in the Stella bin.

General public or bad decisions (105,663) by Bobby A from United States Wasn't all of this silly behavior during the MIAM era? MC was not happy during this era. Plus, Crustella was running everything. (Thursday 22 February 2024; 11:18)

SNL (105,655) by Stacey from USA Mad here? That depends. It depends on if the collaboration steers toward the WAP Cardi B with MC running around in a bathing suit once again. No thanks. That's so beneath Mariah's legend status. Now I'd it's a fun bop aka Fantasy, Heartbreaker, Crybaby, etc then yeah, I'm all for it. (Thursday 22 February 2024; 02:02)

General public or bad decisions (105,660) by Zachariah from Croatia Her PR. That was the main problem. She was always so nice. I became even bigger fan after 1997. I loved that sound and naughty image. But she kept emphasizing that goody two shoes role instead, for example, calling out Jennifer in an award ceremony for stealing sample for Loverboy. Publicly. Not just shading and whispering. Make a damn scene. Get mad. Not diva mad. Woman mad. Make an angry damn song and spit on everyone. Instead, she had idiotic people around herself spreading rumors that she doesn't walk on carpet, that she wants to be skinny like kids in Africa, being late all the time, demanding puppies in the backstage, being eternally 12 and etc etc. People remember that. And they roll their eyes and move on. (Thursday 22 February 2024; 08:42)

I Don't (105,662) by Bobby A from United States I forgot that she did perform I Don't 100% live. She was having some fun and was happy during this era. (Thursday 22 February 2024; 11:11) this is a reply to message 105,658

I Don't (105,658) by enwar00 from usa I Don't always gets so much hate on this board. It's funny or maybe ironic because that whole era she sang live at ease and sounded fire, and now here we are some handful years later, the nightmare era is just a memory yet we're scared of her singing one verse live on TV. Yikes. (Thursday 22 February 2024; 06:53)

This is what we asked for (105,661) by MusicfanJ from Germany Of course it's not about what I want. I just meant not every fan was hoping for this remix. If you enjoy it, fantastic. With the chart-driven thing, I don't get it. Because Mariah broke allready every record. Why not release the inner soul-artist she's in my eyes too. (Thursday 22 February 2024; 11:06) this is a reply to message 105,647

This is what we asked for (105,647) by T from USA Sometimes it's not about what you want. Mariah isn't a puppet that you can control the strings to. If you don't understand what a Top 10 hit on Billboard would mean for Mariah then you really don't know Mariah. Because she's always chosen hits and charts above anything else. I believe deep down inside she's a real musician, a soul artist, but she's very much driven by success. It's the American way. If you want more Mariah you have to give her incentive. Stream and buy.

General public or bad decisions (105,612) by Jamie from UK I'm sat here and a thought came into my head regarding Mariah and her career. For the majority of the 1990's Mariah could do no wrong, she was America's sweetheart and had countless number one songs and albums. People took her into their hearts and adored her. From 1997 she made what some call a drastic change in musical direction and lost some of her core fanbase as a result. However she continued to have number one songs and albums even through a difficult time with Sony and Tommy Mottola. Why was it then that during her most difficult time in her life in 2001 did people turn their backs on her? Surely someone who they had grown to love had spent so long adoring her and buying her music would want to support her during this difficult time. Glitter and Charmbracelet failed to sell anywhere near what she would normally sell. My point is, is it the general public who turn on an artist so quickly, is it the music industry and media that set current trends what is a hit and what the people want or is it bad decisions made by Mariah the artist. For me it's just difficult to understand how such a quick switch in popularity can happen with someone who was literally a force of nature at one point. Firstly I don't think the whole Glitter film helped her persona one bit, 9/11 didn't help but the film just wasn't good enough 9/11 or not. The album or soundtrack is great but in hindsight should it have been left on the shelf once the film tanked to help control the damage from the film and save her also having a music flop too which was unheard of at the time. Would her next album then have been more well received by the public. For me I like Charmbracelet but it feels almost like a complete different body of work to the rest of her catalogue (present and past included) the whole vibe is just different. Were bad decisions made by Mariah creatively should she have come back with an upbeat track ala Fantasy/Honey mode and had less rappers on the album, it would be interesting to see if the Glitter album hadn't been released and she had come back with a stronger album (maybe a combination of Glitter tracks and new ones and called it something else) how her popularity would have been at that time and now. Or had the public already turned their backs on her and changed their view of her as a person. Obviously we had Emancipation but that was very short lived, and since then with the exception of Touch My Body and Christmas she hasn't got anywhere near the popularity she should have had. Do you think the general public just doesn't warm to her anymore, is it Mariah's decisions of music creativity or the way her persona has come across post 2001, or do you think it's the music industry making wrong decisions for her career? We can't change what happens but sometimes it's interesting to put a different spin on how we think things could have gone or been. Would love to hear your views and where you think things went wrong or could have been different for her. (Tuesday 20 February 2024; 17:36)

This is what we asked for (105,659) by Zachariah from Croatia I wouldn't agree with this. I don't like the song and don't have any desire to support it. (Thursday 22 February 2024; 08:27) this is a reply to message 105,641

This is what we asked for (105,641) by T from USA I remember coming to this board for years with people asking for an up tempo Mariah pop song with big vocals. Even Max Martin produced. Some even suggested the impossible, that she's on a track with Ariana Grande. Now we have exactly what everyone has asked for and the success it could find going into the top 10 would be huge. Streaming is easy. Buying is too but this is the day to do it. I've made it easy with two links for us here. Ariana's website and Amazon's new release page. (Wednesday 21 February 2024; 13:47)

General public or bad decisions (105,642) by Anonymous from USA If there's one thing we know about MC it's that she's gonna do what she wants creatively and not what others want. It was just a matter of time before her music style or genre would evolve from mostly Pop to something all her own. She seamlessly merged genres and it is magic. Walter or not, she was going to create music from within and collaborate with rappers she respects, a few Walter ballads sprinkled here or there, but mostly her creative expression. Butterfly was inevitable. That's what makes it so wonderful, her full creative freedom was announced when the butterfly emerged from being controlled in the cocoon for many years. She's never going back to the Mary Poppins persona some fans are waiting for. Meanwhile , let me clutch my pearls and gay gasp at a curse word or two while I enjoy the new Yes, And? remix. For the record, GTFO is my favorite song from Caution. (Wednesday 21 February 2024; 14:24)

This is what we asked for (105,656) by Stacey from USA Because she's always chosen charts and hits above anything else? Clearly you've conveniently forgotten I Don't, Crapfinity, Save the Day, etc. Oh wait, those don't count. They were buzz singles. Sorry, my bad.

SNL (105,633) by Shezz from Pk I'm a little worried about how she'll sound (if it is true). It's a lot of strained belting. Let's see how much is going to be live and how much lipped. I hope she puts in the effort to do it justice. Insiders are saying the Cardi collaboration will be her next step - which is bound to get more people mad here. (Wednesday 21 February 2024; 10:37)

I don't understand peoole from this board (105,654) by Stacey from USA It's why I don't take anything said here too seriously. At the end of the day I have been an MC fan for 30 years. I don't need to prove anything to anyone. I'll always love her music. Saved me on many occasions. Carey on. (Thursday 22 February 2024; 01:59) this is a reply to message 105,648

I don't understand peoole from this board (105,648) by "MariahHater" from Hell Come on guys. She is doing exposure if she will collaborate with Cardi or whoever mainstream [censored] there is. Why are the lambs so hyper in being critical? Lets learn to accept that we are way past the prime. We can have opinions yeah but most of the time people are dragging her nearer to the grave. So much for being a lamb. She can't give out what we want or desire vocally/personality/artistic choices. We all act like as if we are her mother. She is an old adult let her be. Btw just living for the music. Persona, career wise I don't care now. Ugh. Why is charting even created? Sad that art needs to be capitalized for money vs the real form for its consumption. (Wednesday 21 February 2024; 17:49)

This is what we asked for (105,653) by Stacey from USA And add her take on Nevertheless (I'm in love with you). Now that music is timeless. I like Yes And. Do I think it has the same magic, wow factor that a Jay-Z collab did with Heartbreaker? No. But I ain't mad at it. It's a huge step up from I Don't, Save the Day, etc. (Thursday 22 February 2024; 01:57) this is a reply to message 105,645

This is what we asked for (105,645) by MusicfanJ from Germany I've never asked or wanted a song or remix with Ariana. I don't like the music from Miss Grande. The same with Cardi B. (even worse). I want real musicians like Jazz/Blues and Soul singers or a band with real instruments. People like James Poyser are also a win. Trends will come and go, but quality music will stay forever. I enjoy the song "Portrait" again lately, I almost get some Stevie Wonder vibes from a part of the melody. Mariah's "You and I" version is heavenly. That's my kind of music. (Wednesday 21 February 2024; 16:37)

MC remix album (105,652) by Bobby A from United States I love your idea. I know that she has some extra outtakes and vocal stems for most of the songs on the remix album. I would love to see David Morales add some "Stereo Experience" mixes for Dreamlover, Fantasy, and Honey like he did for It's Like That and add new club remixes for the radio remixes like My All/Stay Awhile, Heartbreaker ft. Missy Elliot and Da Brat, and ABMB ft. Xscape. I would love a new Butterfly club remix by Disclosure or Salaam Remi. By the way, why hasn't MC worked with Salaam Remi before?
