About Gee from U.S.A. (New York City): Me and Mariah go back like babies on pacifiers.

We all (93,505) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) We all have suggestions on what Mariah should do while the quarantine situation is going on due to the Corona pandemic. But honestly we do not know what she has been up to during this time besides the videos she has posted here, and there. As we speak she can be creating some new material, or finishing some up music that she put aside for other obligations or not feeling inspired at the time. I am sure that she is working on a couple of things to satisfy all the different people who make up her fan base. Only time will tell, all we can do is wait and see the outcome. Everyone be blessed, and stay safe. (Sunday 5 April 2020; 14:52)

Congratulations Jade (93,489) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Congratulations on your blessing to come. You are truly deserving of all the happiness that you are experiencing. This is a once in a lifetime moment so enjoy it. (Thursday 2 April 2020; 00:45)

ABMB (93,453) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) This song is an undeniable classic. Mariah was the reason to watch last night, and she freaking delivered on all fronts, cylinders. Bravo Mariah you were absolutely amazing. (Monday 30 March 2020; 14:23)

Flowers (93,421) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Mariah is one of few true superstars from her era. We have witnessed both her triumphs, as well as her missteps. But the beauty of it all is that she is among us and still sharing her gifts. Her music has been the soundtrack to so many lives. It is important that we continue to give her flowers before we have to speak about her in the past as we are speaking so many of our greats who have passed. (Sunday 29 March 2020; 03:10)

Happy anniversary (93,396) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Happy anniversary to the queen Mariah. Your immense talent has been a source of inspiration for so many people. I hope that you are enjoying your special day with loved ones. Wishing you an abundance of love, joy, and blessings for many more years to come. (Friday 27 March 2020; 16:05)

The challenge (93,377) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Personally I did not think M would take part in the challenge. In [my] opinion I think our queen made Mariah, and honestly I was not disappointed at all. Those who were I will say you win some, you lose some. (Thursday 26 March 2020; 12:43)

Tijl (93,362) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Sorry to hear about your friend, and I send my prayers to you, and all of your friend’s loved ones. Now that God is in control, and I ask him to grant you, and all the people who love, and care about your friend some peace, understanding, and strength during this difficult time.

Caution (93,323) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) In my opinion is short and sweet, Mariah was able to work with co-producers who are some of today’s hit makers, but still capture Mariah’s signature sound. I believe that if she truly went for another sound that strays too far from who she is at her core people would have still found something to complain about. I am happy that Mariah can work with different artists but still remain true to who she is as an artists. Not many artists are afforded that benefit a lot of artists complain about not being able to create the music that they would like because of industry expectations, and politics. Our Mariah has been there at different times in her career so I am just glad that she has had a way to create quality work, and still be true to herself despite expectations, and politics. Hopefully with the next era she will continue on making great music that she,and her fans can appreciate, enjoy, and celebrate. (Wednesday 18 March 2020; 20:28)

Pandemic (93,300) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) This Coronavirus outbreak is very serious as the entire world is at a standstill. Personally our main goal should be staying safe at all costs. If we care about MC we should hope that she along with her loved ones are safe during this time. Anyone who is focusing on any new projects or touring is not concerned about her wellbeing, they are only concerned about their own selfish interests and to me that is not cool. Hopefully we can get back to our daily living soon, however until then everyone stay safe. (Monday 16 March 2020; 15:21)

Hilton (93,299) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Face it Walter and MC are no longer, and will never be again. Even if they were to reconnect who is to say that their chemistry would be the same? Also he was one of the people who did not want her sound to evolve from the AC pop balladeer princess. Thank God she followed her instincts because if she had not we would not have Butterfly, TEOM, or Caution all albums that took our MC in a new direction or updated her sound. I respect their work together but I am sure if they were working together today some fans would still find something to complain about. (Monday 16 March 2020; 15:04)

All that is needed is (93,256) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) All that is needed is for our Mariah to start the next era with a uptempo banger that has some crossover appeal but still has that Mariah touch. (Wednesday 11 March 2020; 17:31)

Unreleased video footage (93,201) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) The concept did not seem to fit her vision of the song which is probably why it was scrapped altogether. Sometimes less is more, and I have to agree while she looks radiant in the video, however the concept for the original video itself seemed like a mismatch when it relates to the actual song. (Friday 6 March 2020; 15:29)

Walter A (93,174) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Walter A is a done deal in Mariah's world, she has had plenty of success post Walter. The fact that he has tried to diminish her talent as a songwriter every chance he can nowadays why should she work with him again? Honestly speaking they have created great music together, and made history along the way but truthfully they no longer have a great relationship, and I feel like it is no need for them to work together because they may not have the same chemistry because of the creative differences they experienced during the creative process of the Butterfly album. (Thursday 5 March 2020; 01:58)

Sack the stylist (93,143) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) As far as the hair she has been using a wig. As far clothes I feel she should keep Michael for one of kind pieces such as big award shows, and functions, but she should also bring back the person or the people who styled her during Idol. She looked fresh, and fashion forward with doing too much and it worked. (Monday 2 March 2020; 21:20)

TEOM vs E=MC2 (93,130) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) I can appreciate both albums for what they represent. However for me I listen to E=MC2 when I am craving dessert or looking for fun vibes. I listen to TEOM when I need a full course meal or when I am craving a little bit everything all together. All in all it depends on my mood, or certain memories, that is how I determine which of the two albums will satisfy my appetite. (Sunday 1 March 2020; 23:26)

Music 2020 (93,121) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) I am in agreement that Mariah should release a fun uptempo song with a summertime vibe. (Sunday 1 March 2020; 16:02)

What career achievement makes you most proud? (93,067) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) As fans of Mariah we have seen her overcome some major lows, and we have also been around to see her achieve some incredible milestones. But I have a question as a fan what career achievement are you must proud of. 90's Artist of the decade 00's Female artist of the millennium 10's Pop icon/Billboard icon 20's Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee For me it would be a tie between the SWHOF, and the artist of the decade. But all of these achievements are special in their own way. (Thursday 27 February 2020; 01:02)

Dreamlover (93,060) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Check the credits, it was produced by Dave Jam Hall. I stand corrected. They all 3 share producer credit. I have to say the hip pop balance in the production works very well. Big Daddy Kane was major in the late 80's/early 90's in hip hop, the sample of his song ain't no half stepping was definitely Mariah and Dave while Walter brought the more pop feel and sound. (Tuesday 25 February 2020; 22:59)

Dreamlover (93,053) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Dreamlover was a collaboration with Dave Jam Hall not Walter. Dave is also the co producer of Fantasy as well as Slipping Away. (Tuesday 25 February 2020; 17:51)

Random song (93,048) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) The random song for me at the moment is Alone In Love for some reason I woke singing a few bars of this song and I have no idea why but I guess it was meant to be. (Tuesday 25 February 2020; 13:52)

Non single favorites (93,011) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Everything fades away Do you think of me Slipping away When I feel it (Sunday 23 February 2020; 19:06)

B Rodney Jerkins (92,946) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) I agree that Rodney’s production on MIAM was very dated, and lazy. Honestly Rodney Jerkins production has been stale for quite some time in my opinion. (Wednesday 19 February 2020; 18:51)

What is needed right now (92,941) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) What I think MC should do right now is work on carefully constructed album that pays homage to early to mid 90’s R&B but still bring the brilliance, and freshness of Caution by using established co producers but also some new producers who are on the come up. Create between 20-30 songs and choose the strongest 12-15 as the final product. But the main goal should be a fresh take with a signature twist. (Wednesday 19 February 2020; 13:37)

WBT (92,940) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Since we want to give so much credit to everyone else involved she has worked with these people after that, and nothing happened. Everyone complained about her formula with JD since E=MC2 up until the beginning stages of Caution. To be truthfully honest other than BWOY by MJB Jonta, and BCox have not had major success post 05-06. Caution was something fresh whether we want to acknowledge it or not but it still gave us signature MC. Which tells me she is more involved with her creative process than she at times gets credit for. Also a hit song has many factors besides how great it may be. It has to have radio and label as well besides a video and the regular formula. Honestly for me what I can respect is that MC has a signature sound all her own no matter who she works with or the genre she decides to sing. Because the radio nowadays is one boring sound with 20 different artists. (Wednesday 19 February 2020; 13:28)

Maintenance (92,919) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) We must remember we are not a part of MC's daily life, we only get to see what she presents to world. We have to remember that during the majority of the 90's she lived in the studio, and with more success came more work. Of course we can assume what can be the cause of something regarding MC but we really do not know what is true or false. Some can also suggest maintenance tips but even then it can only work for so long. Whatever trauma MC has suffered throughout the years, the fact that she is still alive and able to still give us something we should be grateful because many of our true superstars are now memories as they have passed away. So instead of ridiculing MC for her flaws, we should be giving her flowers as long as she is here to receive, and smell them because one day she will become a part of memories. Let's appreciate our legends, and their legacies, and stop trying to throw them away every chance we get. (Tuesday 18 February 2020; 12:24)
