Amazon review from 2015 (95,838) by Bill from the UK Hah, this review on Amazon UK for the Chick CD is great: "I loved making this CD - glad (a couple of) people are enjoying it. There is a secret ingredient." (Monday 28 September 2020; 18:40)

Re: OMFG (95,834) (95,837) by Edward from USA Her version is epic. (Monday 28 September 2020; 16:56)

Alternate Mariah (95,836) by Mara from United States My mind is still completely blown. I can't believe all this time Mariah has recorded an alternate/grunge album and kept that a secret 25 years ago. All while "being Mariah Carey" in the day recording Daydream, and then really letting it out with Chick. I do remember her expressing she was a fan of Hole and was with Courtney Love in a few pictures. It's insane to me because I have always loved Alt/rock and grunge being a Nirvana and Soundgarden fan as well as Hole and Veruca Salt, as well as Mariah and George Michael being my first love. To know that Mariah had this secret makes it all the more mind blowing. It also makes me a bit sad as she was a 24/25 year old young girl who lived through the grunge years too and as a person who appreciates music prob liked the girl grunge groups like Hole and how their anger was able to be expressed. All along she was married to the head of Sony an older man and felt trapped. She knew she had to be "Mariah Carey" and could never be one of those girls. She was so polished and branded already. Not that she would be taken seriously singing alt rock either at that time. It wasn't "cool" for their audience to like MC. It really puts the song "Looking In" into a whole new perspective. "She dreams of all, that she could never be" and "They'll never know the real me". Very poignant in retrospect to her secret. I would give my all to hear her lead vocals on the whole album and especially the song Demented. Makes you really wonder what else she has in that vault. (Monday 28 September 2020; 16:46)

Re: OMFG (95,834) (95,835) by MusicfanJ from Germany Grunge meets Rock-Mariah. Haha. What a surprise. I remember an old interview where MC said that she loves "Smells Like Teen Spirit". I was really surprised back then. But now it makes even more sense. Mariah is music, she can do all genres. That's phenomenal. What's up next? I'm done and super excited.

OMFG (95,834) by Manuel from Germany She is looking for the version with her as lead vocals. I am dying. (Monday 28 September 2020; 12:16)

Chick songs (95,833) by Manuel from Germany We need to petition Mariah to perform some of these songs in her upcoming concerts. Plus the "new" songs from The Rarities album. I am shook to the core that she recorded this album with Clarissa. It needs to be available for streaming. (Monday 28 September 2020; 12:10)

Re: Out Here On My Own (lyric video) (95,829) (95,832) by MusicfanJ from Germany It's sweet and really nice to watch. I can't get the song out of my head. (Monday 28 September 2020; 11:50)

Re: Why is she still talking about JLo? (95,826) (95,831) by Bill from the UK People in glass houses and all that. Mariah herself stole beats/sampled without permission (same thing) on many tracks and settled out of court. Emotions (Best of My Love), Can't Let Go (Right Before My Eyes), Make It Happen (I Want to Thank You) and plenty more. A quick breeze through whosampled.com and you can see the surprising amount of uncredited samples she has used across her album tracks and remixes. I mean we all know about the So So Def Remix of Say Somethin' by now don't we. (Monday 28 September 2020; 11:38)

Re: OHOMO lyric vdeo Easter egg (95,810) (95,830) by TJ from Norway Where is the hint? I've been watching the video without any results. I did think of Eminem when I read "Hello, my name is" on one of the pages. (Monday 28 September 2020; 11:29)

Out Here On My Own (lyric video) (95,829) by Malcolm from Asia This is her most well done lyric video to date compared to Infinity and The Distance. (Monday 28 September 2020; 10:58)

Re: Chick - Someone's Ugly Daughter (95,815) (95,828) by Bill from the UK Wow. I'm That Chick indeed. (Monday 28 September 2020; 07:41)

Butterfly EPs (95,827) by enwar00 from usa I just wanted to share how grateful I am for the timely MC30 releases this summer. No doubt possibly a ray of light for others during such a bleak year. My favorite bunch so far, unsurprisingly, are the Butterfly EPs. I faced a huge loss last month so these songs have once again brought me solace. It's so nice to be able to easily stream these EPs and mixes without having to play the CDs or go on YouTube. I'm also into many of the dubs now, whereas I really wasn't in the past. What are some of your favorite EPs and mixes? These really stick out for me: - Honey Smooth version, I really wish the no intro was also included - Honey Morales Club Dub - I'd never heard this before and love how it's a different vibe, will be listening much more often - The Roof Full Crew remixes, both no rap and with Mobb Deep, absolutely love this mix - The Roof Morales radio mix and even the After Hours Dub, never heard either before - Butterfly Sambaterfly edit, also never heard before, it would be cool if the full length was included. - Butterfly Def "B" Club Mix (Monday 28 September 2020; 05:23)

Re: Why is she still talking about JLo? (95,793) (95,826) by Jono from USA Your ignorance is showing. Mariah hasn't "stolen" beats, that's called sampling. It's a completely legal and common process where you pay the original composer/producer to use it, also known as clearance. What JLo/Tommy did was steal ideas from Mariah that were so blatantly obvious. I'm Real (remix) lifts the concept from If We, and we all know about the Loverboy debacle. In art you can be influenced by people, but stealing someone's idea to try and pass it off as your own is taboo. Please do your research before you come on here acting like a damn fool.

Re: Cool On You (95,816) (95,825) by enwar00 from usa Lol. History gets rewritten everyday. (Monday 28 September 2020; 04:17)

Re: October 2nd (95,812) (95,824) by enwar00 from usa Why would someone buy 10 digital copies of an album? Or did I totally miss the joke. (Monday 28 September 2020; 04:14)

Re: Chick - Someone's Ugly Daughter (95,813) (95,823) by Nicky from Jasmine's Sofa Amazing, I love it. Jack is in the Malibu video too (that or a Jack lookalike). (Monday 28 September 2020; 02:37)

Re: Columbia Records/Sony (95,806) (95,820) by Andrew from the United Kingdom Eric, mate. Mariah? Barbra? You 100% sure you're straight? Robert Anthony is looking pretty butch to me right now. (Monday 28 September 2020; 02:31)

Re: Follow-up to The Meaning of Mariah Carey (95,808) (95,819) by Nicky from Jasmine's Sofa I'm laughing so hard. It's sooo extra and such a necessity. (Monday 28 September 2020; 02:29)

Re: Cool On You (95,803) (95,818) by Andrew from the United Kingdom "This is her closure song that was replaced by For The Record." Please cite source or link to evidentiary support. (Monday 28 September 2020; 02:26)

Re: Cool On You (95,816) (95,817) by Bobby A from United States You're so right. (Monday 28 September 2020; 01:40)

Re: Cool On You (95,803) (95,816) by RibbonB from USA He got married in 2016, 8 years after E=MC2 was released. (Monday 28 September 2020; 00:46)

Re: Chick - Someone's Ugly Daughter (95,813) (95,815) by Bobby A from United States Wow. This has been the year for sweet revelations and unlocking the vault in MC's world. She is a musical genius. I am sure has a Christmas song surprise in November or a AIWFCIY remix. (Monday 28 September 2020; 00:20)

Re: Columbia Records/Sony (95,806) (95,814) by Bobby A from United States That's my fault for typing a message in the restroom when I should have been out on floor stacking the apples into neat rolls. I usually do my research first with the correct spelling of names. (Monday 28 September 2020; 00:15)
