Thank you, Tevin. Yes, she taught me a lot about life.

Promo (111,445) by Giovanni from USA

The promo for the album has been good so far and I feel MC is only getting started. She did look tired in the Gayle King interview so I hope she gets plenty of rest. I know "Play this song" is going to immediately be sent to radio on Friday so I hope everyone will be streaming and playing the video on YouTube. Mariah deserves her next number one and hit record. I do think Here for it all will reach number one on the r&b chart but on the Billboard it's questionable. There have been so many artists who have released albums and they flopped bad and didn't even chart at all. I don't think that will happen with Mariah. "Play this song" sounds promising and with her label behind her she could very well have the album chart decent. Also I heard there is something in the works with SZA, either a collab or a remix. 2025 might be Mariah's year if the fans do their part.

SZA/Apple (111,444) by Giovanni from USA

I have to say I did not pay much attention to SZA when she first came out. I knew about "Kill Bill" but that's it. She comes off as nice, respectful and she is another artist who loves and admires MC. The interview was good and that "Here for it all" snippet was amazing. I think it might be one of Mariah's best ballads and maybe my favorite because of the piano. It's a very emotional song and reminds of something from "Butterfly". The audience was certainly eating it up and here for it all haha.

Gayle King (111,443) by Giovanni from USA

That was one of Mariah's best interviews for sure. For once we got good questions and it wasn't boring. Gayle knows how to do an interview and she loves her some MC. My only complaint is that it was too short. I'm looking forward to MC doing Jennifer Hudson's show. Her last appearance was great and she even got herself an award. I thought that was so nice and sweet. I feel like people are respecting Mariah again and after "Here for it all" is out and is heard everyone in the industry will know MC is still number one and a music force to reckon with. This woman deserves her flowers and more.

Ouch that's not a great review for Mariah.

CBS Gale interview (111,441) by Jamie from UK

I just watched the interview but I skipped through the snippets.
Nice to see the humour still there and her vulnerability. I just feel the light heartedness isn’t there she’s clearly very medicated. But if that’s what she needs to function then that’s cool. It was great to see her open up a bit more though and not talk about the same old things. I'm really excited for tomorrow.

Article: Mariah Carey was the "worst" celebrity guest on Mafiathon 3 (111,440) by Lambi from USA

They're probably mad Mariah didn't give them the lambo or what ever they requested. Lol.

Article: Mariah Carey was the "worst" celebrity guest on Mafiathon 3 (111,439) by Dove from United States

Why else would a star go on a show if not for promo? Honestly, he was the one who seemed disorganized. I gave him a pass because they're young and it's a YouTube show but that was not a nice thing to say.

Article: Mariah bluntly reacts to Nick Cannon co-parenting question (111,438) by Dove from United States

I don't like how Nick's baby mommas are listed by name sometimes when there's a story about Mariah. Is that necessary? It rubs me the wrong way. It's like, they're forever linked to Mariah now because Nick can't keep it in his pants. I could see if it was a story about him but this story is not about him.

Play That Song snippet (111,437) by Stacey from USA

I have not listened to the clip and your thoughts are exactly why. I want to hear all the songs in their entirety before giving my opinion.

Article: Mariah Carey was the "worst" celebrity guest on Mafiathon 3 (111,436) by Stacey from USA

Seriously the whole notion is ridiculous. Why else would MC do the interview if it wasn't to promote her new album? These people were absent when brain cells were handed out, lol.

Play That Song snippet (111,435) by TJ from Norway

I'm not impressed by that clip, but I might think differently when I get it on the stereo. Anyone else being in kind of a limbo? It would either go that way or the other?

Mariah fan site lambs are so crazy (111,434) by T from USA

I'm seeing people on other message boards asking others not to post reviews if they are not complementary to the album. And to only post the publications that give the album good reviews. What kind of free speech stifling is this? So in the future the only way to be a fan of Mariah and post on her topic in a message board is if you only state the good and none of the bad? What is going on with the world? People need to stop being dictators.

CBS Gale interview (111,432) by Mara from United States

That is how you interview the likes and talent of Mariah Carey. What a beautiful interview with reaching into Maria[h] and getting her to speak for the first time about her grief and her loss and just talking about her mom, and even the fact that she brought up that she was at her bedside and with her. I'm so glad that she heard the words she needed to hear to heal. It was also so special to hear her speak of Alison as her sister in that way. I'm sure she had and continues to have so many different emotions going on.

Here For It All sounds like one of her best albums, and I am so excited just like the old me in the 90s as a teenager when she would release her albums in the fall and they always coincided with something I was going through. This album doesn't shy away from the same feeling "Nothing Is Impossible" sounds like one of the most beautiful melodies and lyrics. I think I've ever heard just from that clip alone I am so excited for this album let alone the "My Love" cover. I can't wait to hear that. I hope she takes it in a different direction than "One More Try" and it's not as overproduced with too much going on. I'm just so excited. I can't believe we're going to have new music for the first time in seven years basically tomorrow at midnight. Congratulations Mariah - we are so proud of you and all you have and continue to overcome. Most of us have been proudly with you and Here For It All through your entire career. This moment is all of ours.

Article: Mariah Carey was the "worst" celebrity guest on Mafiathon 3 (111,431) by Edward from USA

Sorry, but Mariah came in with great energy and was a good sport throughout. The real issue was on Kai's side: everything felt messy and improvised. When you have a celebrity of her caliber on your show, organization is a must. I get that they're all Gen Z and maybe still figuring things out, but come on. If she was the "worst" celebrity on your show, you and your crew were the "worst" hosts. How do you bring your crew looking messy and out of it to meet the queen. Chile please.

Article: Mariah Carey was the "worst" celebrity guest on Mafiathon 3 (111,430) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter

Boy bye. Kai Cenat isn't an idiot, he didn't do her a favor, it was a business transaction. Haters gonna hate, you can blame Mariah for capitalizing on any promo she can get.

Play this song (111,429) by Giovanni from USA

I made the mistake of not turning the volume off my phone before I went on Mariah's Insta and well I heard a little of "Play this song". It's sounds pretty good and has the potential to help the album. I have to say by seeing the short video clip Anderson .Paak looks so happy with Mimi. I think he has a crush on her and I wouldn't be surprised if they were secretly dating. I've never seen someone smile so much for Mariah probably since Bryan. What do y'all think?

Gayle King (111,428) by Giovanni from USA

I hope y'all watch Mariah's interview with Gayle King. I've always liked Gayle King I guess mainly because she is a fan and has always showed love and respect for Mariah. It's a good short little interview.

Somewhat loved (111,427) by Giovanni from USA

I really wish this had been Mariah's song. I can understand how it might not have been hit worthy but I like it and I think it had potential. Her voice sounds good and the lyrics are decent. It's certainly a lot better than that horrible garbage "Infinity" song. I would like to ask her what she thinks of the song.

Recent falsetto (111,426) by Giovanni from USA

Christina was good when she first started. I like her debut album and it's aged very well. "Come on over" is her best song in my opinion followed by "I turn to you". She definitely had a tendency of over singing and over doing it with riffs and runs but her problem was that she did not have proper singing technique which damaged her voice. She's probably the only singer who I can think of who has strained the most and well that also had a major impact on her voice. I've seen some recent performances of hers and surprisingly sounds much better these days. I'm happy for her and hope she can have another hit record one day.

Article: Mariah Carey has seen it all: "it was such a drama" (111,425) by Matthew from USA

This article made me happy. As fans, we can sometimes be her harshest critics, sometimes to the point where I get a little disillusioned. But then I read this article about how all the people who have actually worked with her view her with such awe and respect and - I don't know - that just makes me so happy for whatever reason. Thanks for posting it.

Play This Song preview (111,424) by BFF from United States

Wow. I am so glad she kept this song under wraps for the 9/26/25 release date. It sounds really good. And from the looks of the video clip, she and Anderson appear to be more than just colleagues.
