Re: Did Mariah actually write The Roof (100,238) (100,240) by T from USA
It was a serious question. I always thought she wrote [...]. I was just wondering why on her official YouTube channel which she approves I'm assuming, every song lists her as a writer. Except [...]. And it's not an oversight as there is about six other names under lyric writers. Just not hers.

I do. I care.

Re: Did Mariah actually write The Roof (100,227) (100,228) by T from USA
On YouTube, which is taken right from her official page, it says "lyricists" but it has everyone's name but hers. [Webmaster: Who cares?]

Re: Did Mariah actually write The Roof (100,223) (100,224) by T from USA
I see that. But why on her official YouTube channel it lists four different writers but none are her? Does her management upload the videos or Sony? Either way, with millions of views on the video it gives the impression to anyone who checks that she didn't write it at all. I always assumed she was the sole writer, but now I'm not so sure.

Did Mariah actually write The Roof (100,222) by T from USA
I was on her official YouTube upload for [The Roof (back in time)], and when I click the more info arrow it gives all the songs credits including all the writers but Mariah's name is nowhere to be found. Am I missing something?

Giving Me Life feat Brandy (100,220) by T from USA
After hearing how Brandy elevated The Roof just simply with her background vocals it made me wonder what could've happened if Mariah got her to do backgrounds on Giving Me Life for the Caution album. It would have taken an already stellar song to the next level.

Re: Mariah credited in UK and Oz (100,187) (100,188) by T from USA
The original has already passed the remix on sales. That means it is ahead in sales, streams and radio airplay. There is virtually no chance she will get the credit now on Billboard. The label should have pushed harder two weeks ago.

Bring back Walter Afanasieff while you're at it.

Re: Billboard Hot 100 (100,138) (100,140) by T from USA
Well ARIA charts (in Australia) have confirmed that Mariah will only be credited if the label contact them. So I don't know how much more proof you need? This is not a high profile court case lol.

[Webmaster: What do the ARIA charts in Australia have to do with Billboard? Still no sources.]

Re: Billboard Hot 100 (100,136) (100,138) by T from USA
It's not what I'm reading. I'm reading that RCA has the ability to credit Mariah if they choose. But it would take a little persuading.

[Webmaster: You often claim things, but when people ask for your sources, you never give them.]
(Tuesday 12 April 2022; 13:10)
Re: Billboard Hot 100 (100,134) (100,135) by T from USA
I don't think that will happen. No credit.
(Tuesday 12 April 2022; 02:34)
Re: Billboard Hot 100 (100,129) (100,131) by T from USA
Predictions are that it will remain at #3 but it's only the original that's at #3. Even though we all know it's the remix with Mariah that got it so high in the first place.

Re: Stella would've gotten her credited (100,118) (100,119) by T from USA
Stella was a pit bull. Say what we want, it was clear she stuck up for Mariah and made sure Mariah got her coins. The bad part of Stella was she was also very self serving. Mariah's version of the song is what made it #1 on the sales charts and added to huge playlists yet she was not credited even when it reached #3 on the Hot 100. Billboard stated they would need a letter of request from the RCA label and yet so far that has not happened. Stella would've bullied her name on it.

Stella would've gotten her credited (100,115) by T from USA
Seems like Mariah will never get a credit on the Big Energy song. I would wish RCA would fight harder for her. She deserves it.

Re: Big big fantasy (100,058) (100,061) by T from USA
Mariah is [a] genius because she basically just swallowed this whole song while keeping Fantasy's reputation in tact.

I'm gunna do a remix (100,043) by T from USA
Instead of that long whistle at the beginning she should've sung the famous line "I'm gunna do a remix" in a tribute to ODB. Then DJ Khalid could've jumped in with his shouting hype. That's the only thing I would've changed. Save the whistle high not for the end. I understand keeping the iconic verse but maybe the second part could've been updated to reflect the current times.

Oh when you walk by every night
Talking sweet and looking fine
I get kinda hectic inside

Baby after all these years
I'm still into you my dear
You're no longer just in my mind

And it's just a sweet sweet

Re: Any news (99,972) (99,973) by T from USA
I would love if the Butterfly Lounge is separate from MC16. It would be cool if she has a new album called "Sweet Sixteen" of all new music, and then in September on the anniversary of Butterfly she can release the documentary of Butterfly on a streaming service with the duets she created in the lounge.

Re: Memoirs is an attempt at Butterfly II (99,953) (99,956) by T from USA
I wouldn't call it a party album. It's more of a mood album. I think the closest she gets to party album is the one that came before Memoirs. Still I don't think he has yet released a full on party album.

Re: Memoirs is an attempt at Butterfly II (99,943) (99,950) by T from USA
One of the professional reviews compared Memoirs to Rainbow I guess due to the banging first single right down to all the interludes. I find it's a mix of Butterfly, Rainbow and Charmbracelet so basically it's Mariah. It's probably the most Mariah she's ever been on one album now that we know her so well. I guess that's what happens when you only work with one person, it gives you a chance for your own personality to come out more. I like it. I wish it was shortened to 12 songs like Butterfly and maybe it would be a little stronger like in 1997.

1. Betcha
2. Obsessed
3. Hate U
4. Candy Bling
5. Ribbon
6. Inseparable
7. Standing O
8. It's a Wrap
9. The Impossible
10. H.A.T.E.U. Remix
11. Languishing
12. I Want To Know What Love Is

These plans were started in 2017 (99,868) by T from USA
I remember this article where Mariah was slowly braking from Stella and she renegotiated her contract with LA Reid and Sony setting up a label called Butterfly MC Records and the first order of business was an intimate Butterfly tour where she celebrates its 20th anniversary by performing the whole album. It was a way to reintroduce Butterfly to the general public and new audience. Of course, shortly after LA Reid was out of Sony and plans changed where she recorded Caution the very next year instead. I guess she never forgot about the idea and is doing something special for the 25th.

Migrate or Caution (99,863) by T from USA
Which single was the biggest missed opportunity? Was it Migrate which would've been a great second single to continue the momentum. Or the song Caution which could've launched the album making a big difference in success.

Re: Butterfly 25th September 16 (99,857) (99,862) by T from USA
The new version of Butterfly could be brilliant like the late night WBT session. Or could be flat like the Close My Eyes 2020 redo. All depends how much effort she puts in on the reimagining. I also think having the original tour concert to go along with it would be nice. Why create a whole brand new album with new songs (like Caution) when she already has these amazing songs ready to go that the new generation has no idea about?
(Monday 7 March 2022; 14:12)
Re: Butterfly 25th September 16 (99,838) (99,842) by T from USA
I will introduce the new generation to Butterfly which is arguably her best 90s album. Right now the new generations memory can only go back as far as TEOM. So this way she can shed light on Butterfly and pump some streams into it.
