Re: DJ Khaled (99,031) (99,033) by Shezz from Pk I think she got the memo when she recorded Caution. Wasn't he practically nonexistent on that album? It was definitely a step in the right direction. Here's hoping she takes that several steps further with MC16 now that she has the time to fully work on it at her own pace. I think the other producers let her take the wheel when they collaborate either out of awe or respect of working with her. My hope for MC16 is that she tries to keep things simple production wise and not muddle her songs with over production and numerous counter melodies and let the songs be singable and more coherent. There still is brilliance in all her songs. I just feel it gets lost in there. (Saturday 4 December 2021; 05:06)

Re: DJ Khaled (99,031) (99,032) by Warren from Trinidad & Tobago I think that's an inevitability we all need to be faced with. MC will always work with JD as long as she has full creative control over her career. She needs to at least listen to the advice of someone else at this stage if she hopes to ever be a non-Christmas artist at least once again. After that, I would be happy if she called it a day and only did one off performances like the WBT Valentines mix. (Friday 3 December 2021; 20:49)

DJ Khaled (99,031) by Bobby A from United States I think DJ Khaled saved his best track for Mary J. Blige. Her So Amazing track is on fire. I hope MC comes back this hard. I don't want any JD tracks on MC16. (Friday 3 December 2021; 18:28)

Re: Re: Two questions (99,024) (99,029) (99,030) by Matty from Vancouver Canada Awww so mixed reviews on the cookies. Bummer. I was hopping for oohy- gooy goodness. Cookies that are almost like cake, ya know? Anyone with info about what those cards are for, and why you'd buy them? In other news; can't wait to listen to the FILAC remixes. (Friday 3 December 2021; 17:31)

Re: Two questions (99,024) (99,029) by Littal from USA Sadly the cookies are a no. I was gifted 6 boxes of them last year - the cinnamon ones were pretty good but the rest would go uneaten. I tried bringing them to work and they were passed on. Too many other good cookie options in the NYC - levaine and Insomnia. (Friday 3 December 2021; 15:19)

2011 HSN Cares Mariah Carey butterfly ornament (99,028) by Jerry D Rivers from United States Hello everyone. I have a Facebook friend, one of those you add but don't know haha, who is a Mariah super fan. He just posted he has searched everywhere to replace his 2011 HSN Cares Mariah Carey butterfly ornament that he completely charished that two so called friends stole from him. This Christmas I'm trying to do something special at least for one person I don't completely know and would love help trying to find this to purchase to give to him as a gift. Any help locating one would be so appreciated. Jrivers22003@yahoo.com. Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone. May we all be blessed and feel the love. (Friday 3 December 2021; 12:49)

Jussie (99,027) by RL from USA Horrible person. Wish Mariah never did a duet with him. (Friday 3 December 2021; 03:15)

Side projects (99,026) by SM from Citizen of the World Out of all of Mariah's side projects, cookies, Black Irish, boosted packs, mac, McDonald's, etc. lol I really wish she would partner with a high end candle company and create a fragrance for everyone. Wouldn't have to be a holiday theme but anything would be cool or branch out and partner with a home decor store such as CB2? I would be all about that. (Friday 3 December 2021; 03:04)

Re: Two questions (99,024) (99,025) by RibbonB from USA The cookie looks good. (Friday 3 December 2021; 00:58)

Two questions (99,024) by Matty from Vancouver Canada First, has anyone tried Mariah's cookies and are the delish? (This is a commercial endeavour that I find fun, smart and relevant to the queen of Christmas brand that makes a lot of sense to me, so I'm not at all hating they simply aren't available in Canada and I'd love to know how good they taste.) Second, what are these cards from her wallet where she's wearing a Christmas marvel mask costume on the cover? I don't understand what they are or why one might purchase them? I used to look every year for a Mariah calendar or note book at the book stores when I was younger and could never find one. I'd buy those to this day, I just don't understand these drivers license things and what you do with them. (Thursday 2 December 2021; 19:19)

Re: MC diamond edition (99,016) (99,023) by Will from England Problem is is that in the last two years we have had two Christmas albums, one of which was already a double disc feature and that was celebrating the anniversary of the Christmas album - a worthier reason to release it, plus new songs and everything else we've asked for. Another double disc would just be redundant at this point. It's a nice idea, but not a good enough reason to release it. (Wednesday 1 December 2021; 23:24)

Re: Adele Vegas residency at Caesars (99,021) (99,022) by RibbonB from USA Adele is doing Vega vs. a world tour because of Covid. Mimi is smart to lay low and do her Christmas routine as she has nothing new out and why take the risk and create the expense of a flop during a pandemic? Things are different now especially for an artist like Mimi. (Wednesday 1 December 2021; 21:15)

Re: Adele Vegas residency at Caesars (99,020) (99,021) by T from USA No more Vegas for MC please. Mariah needs to go out into the world and reconnect with her fans. In Australia, South America, Canada and the UK. If she hides in Vegas she will eventually fade away in the worlds markets. (Wednesday 1 December 2021; 19:23)

Adele Vegas residency at Caesars (99,020) by Mara from United States So I know that this is not an Adele board and hate bringing her up again but saw the news about her going to Vegas now and can't help to wish it was Mariah. I know, I know, she has done it before and yes I am happy for Adele and her fans but I guess I just miss seeing M. Especially her magical Christmas shows at the Beacon. I hope one day she returns there again. I don't know who represents Adele, but she certainly seems to be the new "It girl" who can do no wrong in the industry and public's eye. They are really pushing her. She has so much going on right now. Da*n COVID. We miss you M. (Wednesday 1 December 2021; 03:55)

Re: Probably no likes (99,011) (99,019) by Terna from Nigeria I don't look forward to any duets of Mariah with other artists, it always comes across as distracting. Chaka Khan gave the analogy of artists being like planets, she says they don't always have to collaborate, each is his own entity and fares better solo. This applies to Mariah too. She's said it in words, with "The meaning of Mariah Carey". Now it's time to speak through the music, which is the best way she knows how to after all. Sing from the heart like you used to, almost as if you have a point to prove, which in a way you do - the younger generation don't know much about her at all, they don't even know the triumph that was "The Emancipation Of Mimi" era, to them she's just a Christmas act now (have you seen those "Mariah Carey is defrosting" memes? lol, the disrespect), which we all know is far from the way it really is. It's time for her to sit with herself and rewrite the narrative, tell the story the best way only you can tell it. I want to experience Mariah Carey again like I did when I was a little boy, If there's anyone who can do it, she's the one. Industry politics, ageism and all. (Tuesday 30 November 2021; 18:29)

The #1's MC's "Someday" (99,018) by Chicago Lamb from USA Webmaster: It seems you inadvertently skipped over Stereogum's "Someday" inclusion. Here you go for all to enjoy! (Tuesday 30 November 2021; 02:48)

Re: Mariah and BTS (99,015) (99,017) by SM from Citizen of the World Only two songs? (Monday 29 November 2021; 21:04)

MC diamond edition (99,016) by T from USA Wouldn't it be cool for a release of a diamond edition of Merry Christmas? It could include Fall In Love At Christmas, Where Are You Christmas and a few new songs. I think she's at the point now that she could group all her original songs onto one disc, and of course an additional disc with all her Christmas covers (for the traditionalists). Who else would love a double disc MC diamond edition album? (Monday 29 November 2021; 19:59)

Re: Mariah and BTS (99,008) (99,015) by T from USA Yes. Two songs and an interview. (Monday 29 November 2021; 19:16)

Re: Probably no likes (99,012) (99,014) by RibbonB from USA Adele did it first with her Easy on Me country collab and hit. Mimi has missed that boat. (Sunday 28 November 2021; 20:01)

Re: Probably no likes (99,012) (99,013) by Bobby A from United States Great minds think alike. I want her to take more risks with her music. The same formula is not going to work for an ever changing music industry. Artists are giving people something new and fresh. We will see what 2022 brings us. (Sunday 28 November 2021; 17:22)

Re: Probably no likes (99,011) (99,012) by MusicfanJ from Germany Robert-Anthony you read my mind. I swear I just bought the CD Traveller last week, because I'm addicted to the soulful "Tennessee Whiskey". And just yesterday I was thinking the same. How would it sound if they had a duet song together. Music for "grown-ups" with great lyrics and soul. Mariah and Chris, yes, yes, yes. (Sunday 28 November 2021; 11:35)

Probably no likes (99,011) by Bobby A from United States I was thinking today that Mariah Carey and Chris Stapelton should record a duet together. I love his southern soulful voice. He is a great songwriter too. It would interesting to see what they would come up with. His voice is buttery soul like John Legend's voice. (Saturday 27 November 2021; 23:16)

Re: Joy to the world (Celebration Remix) (99,009) (99,010) by MusicfanJ from Germany Oh I mixed it up. Thanks for the info. And you can really listen to it all year long. (Saturday 27 November 2021; 22:12)

Re: Joy to the world (Celebration Remix) (99,006) (99,009) by Bill from the UK I agree this is one of her best club mixes, but it was a collaboration with David Morales, not C&C. ❤️ (Saturday 27 November 2021; 19:13)
