About Bobby A from United States: I have been a Lamb since 1990. I know Mariah. I love her music. I breathe her music.

Music video (109,377) by Bobby A from United States It was to show the effect that MC had on them. Notice she was on the floor too. She attracts dangerous men and their bad character traits are too much for them to bare around her. (Monday 16 June 2025; 16:20) this is a reply to message 109,374

Music video (109,374) by Carlos from Brazil I still don't understand why all the men are on the floor in pain. Were they poisoned? I feel like I miss something. Hopefully everyone rewatches to search for the clues and we gain streams. (Monday 16 June 2025; 15:39)

Summertime Ball (109,372) by Bobby A from United States My eyes were on him every time he moved. What is his name? (Monday 16 June 2025; 15:18) this is a reply to message 109,370

Summertime Ball (109,370) by Lee from UK I'm so proud of Mariah. It's like she has been saving all her energy for this show. When she did sing live, she sounded great and even the new pre-recorded vocals were smooth. The musicians pulled it out of the bag with instrumentals. I hope she can keep up this level of energy for when she returns to play at Sandringham in August. The dancers have really stepped it up too. Was anyone else unable to not take their eyes off the ginger dancer? (Monday 16 June 2025; 14:39)

Mariah, on fire (109,369) by Bobby A from United States Since MC is on fire right now, do you think MC16 needs a title that will grab people's attention and pokes fun at MC herself? How about the title, I Don't Know Her? (Monday 16 June 2025; 14:26) this is a reply to message 109,212

Mariah, on fire (109,212) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ok so BETs. Tell me why this woman looks like she's still in her early 30s. She looked absolutely breathtakingly stunning and every bit the mega star she is clad in that gorgeous gold mini dress fit for the music industry's golden girl. I liked that she was more playful with the performance, I do wish she wore more comfortable shoes so that she had the confidence to strut around by herself and strut onto the stage during the opening of the song it would have made it more fierce but I see her trying and I'll take it. I absolutely loved her second look too, she looked so angelic and pure and her speech was amazing. The little humor, her embracing her diva and extraness. This is a new Mariah era not just album wise but personally too. I also hear her team discounted the song right after BETs a smart move. I'm liking how her team is handling her so far. The roll out of this era has been amazing. I can't wait for the video. (Tuesday 10 June 2025; 13:04)

Summertime Ball (109,356) by Bobby A from United States That's my MC. I loved every performance. My favorite was that low note ending on ABMB. Wow. (Monday 16 June 2025; 01:34) this is a reply to message 109,355

Summertime Ball (109,355) by Dave from USA Now that is more like it. A little movement. Crowd interaction. Performance confidence. Similar to the early days when in Tokyo or MSG performing Fantasy. (Monday 16 June 2025; 01:26)

Remix needed (109,350) by Bobby A from United States Do you think it is too early for the remix? It would be nice for it to drop 4th of July weekend. Cardi B. would be icing on the cake with a HitBoy or Nineteen85 production. (Sunday 15 June 2025; 20:20)

One more observation (109,341) by Bobby A from United States I know her team and Gamma have a plan and I trust that they have the success for MC16 already worked out. I am going to let this new era unfold as it happens. Great things are on the way for MC. MC is not the only legacy artist who doesn't chart on the Hot 100 like they used to. OMG was Usher's last number #1 in 2009 and Scream was his last top 10 hit in 2012. Good Good from his current album on Gamma only got as high as #25 on the Hot 100. (Sunday 15 June 2025; 10:19) this is a reply to message 109,335

One more observation (109,335) by Shezz from Pk 1. Because she wants chart success and they control the charts, not us. 2. I think she also likes to remain "current" and "contemporary". Doesn't always translate well though with the audience. If any of the younger artists released TD it'd shoot straight to the top. 3. Part of her whole "eternally 12" shtick. I still can't believe she's done a grown ass ballad with Barbra. So intrigued to hear how she sounds there with her current voice. That even next to Barbra and Ariana. (Sunday 15 June 2025; 04:57)

Change of heart (109,340) by Bobby A from United States I am starting to come around now too. Hopefully, Type Dangerous will continue to rise on the Hot 100. I need to stop trying to be MC's manager and just be a Lamb. I only want the best for MC. My criticism comes from love and admiration for MC. Anyway, One Heart One Voice arrives in 14 days. Maybe that will be the spark and flame for this era. (Sunday 15 June 2025; 10:00) this is a reply to message 109,338

Change of heart (109,338) by Haiji from United States Ok after watching the video about a hundred times, I'm really loving it. It's visually stunning, she looks beautiful and if you're a lamb and get the references, it's hilarious. If this Mr. Beast is really that popular and will get the GP to watch the video just for that, after a while, the song will catch on. It has that summer vibe to it. Idk if it's because I'm a fan and I'll pretty much support any song she drops, but the song is extremely catchy. It won't stop playing in my head lol. (Sunday 15 June 2025; 06:21)

Bill (109,334) by Bobby A from United States I don't know you. That was too much information for me. Lol. (Sunday 15 June 2025; 03:51) this is a reply to message 109,329

Bill (109,329) by Dove from United States I used to come on here a looong time ago and I still think about you guys sometimes. No one posted their pictures back then so I had my own mental image of what everyone looked like. Bill was one of my favorites, but in my mind he looked like the dad from Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. So when I saw that handsome face I was just super surprised. If I was still young enough to have kids, I would totally have a kid for you Bill. Smart, funny, kind, and handsome? That’s rare. (Sunday 15 June 2025; 02:57)

One more observation (109,327) by Bobby A from United States With such an illustrious career, why is MC devoting so much of her time after 30 years in the music business to remain relevant among young people today? (Sunday 15 June 2025; 02:55)

Start guessing (109,325) by Bobby A from United States His name is James Packer. It is hard to believe he was her ex-finance once upon a time. The video pointed out that MC really doesn't have a type. I guess that is the parody. MC has been married or dated all types of men not necessarily a dangerous type of man. Derek Jeter will always be her first true love. He has more songs written about him than any of her other men. Her fame and really wanting to be Mrs. Derek Jeter pushed Derek away from MC. (Sunday 15 June 2025; 02:26) this is a reply to message 109,322

Start guessing (109,322) by Lara from Middle East Let's try play the game of guessing the Mr in the video. Mr player: Derek Jeter Mr dancer: Bryan Tanaka Mr traitor: Nick cannon Mr dealer: Parker? Was that his name? (I'm forgetful ) Mr beast: I don't know him literally, had to ask my kids about it. Also did anyone else got vibes from so many different videos she's already done? It's like that, Thank God I found you remix, With you, Boy. Just to name a few (Saturday 14 June 2025; 22:39)

Video (109,313) by Bobby A from United States Yes, it was not an earth shattering surprise. Finding out after eight months that Kristen shot J.R. on Dallas was more earth shattering than Mr. Beast showing up in a Mariah Carey video. Has MC had any interactions with Mr. Beast before now? I am trying to figure out why he would be such an earth shattering surprise to the Lambs. Now I am really concerned about her team's next steps before announcing the album title and release date. (Saturday 14 June 2025; 21:21) this is a reply to message 109,311

Video (109,311) by Dave from USA I would not say that was earth shattering. I liked the vid but it didn't live up to the hype. Maybe there will be a remix with higher hopes than Mr. Beast. (Saturday 14 June 2025; 21:07)

Video (109,301) by Bobby A from United States Her team just posted an X Mariah Alerts update and what I have interpreted that the video is not coming today. (Saturday 14 June 2025; 19:26) this is a reply to message 109,298

Video (109,298) by Haiji from United States Better be worth it lol. (Saturday 14 June 2025; 17:57)

Video (109,296) by Bobby A from United States Lol. This video must be 13-20 minutes long. (Saturday 14 June 2025; 17:55) this is a reply to message 109,295

Video (109,295) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ugh we're 21 mins (24 hours and 21 mins) past due time and still no video. Mariah Alerts just posted that JK is still doing finishing touches. (Saturday 14 June 2025; 17:21)

Video (109,294) by Bobby A from United States Is this MC's most anticipated video ever? I don't think any of her other videos have ever caused so many conversations amongst the Lambs before. (Saturday 14 June 2025; 16:55) this is a reply to message 109,290

Video (109,290) by Tameka walker from United states Video drops 11 am today. (Saturday 14 June 2025; 13:31)

New video (109,284) by Bobby A from United States The video for #Beautiful was late too. It was supposed to premiere on American Idol on May 8, 2013, but was pushed back to May 9th. (Saturday 14 June 2025; 01:35) this is a reply to message 109,275

New video (109,275) by Haiji from United States So according to Chatgpt: There's no credible evidence of a delay - rather, it appears the team actively adjusted the timing to build anticipation and ensure the surprise element hit just right. (Friday 13 June 2025; 18:20)

The OGs (109,268) by Bobby A from United States Let's have a reunion. Where have you been, The Wind? It is good to see all of the OGs posting this week. If you haven't posted in awhile, say hello. (Friday 13 June 2025; 16:00) this is a reply to message 109,267

The OGs (109,267) by TheWind from England In the real housewives world they refer to original housewives as OGs. It got me thinking, who are some of the OGs that people remember here? The message board has been going for a long time, but I remember some big characters on here, like Special K. I'd consider her an OG and big personality on here. (Friday 13 June 2025; 15:31)

Next single (109,253) by Bobby A from United States Well, we know one thing for sure that MC and Gamma will not release the album if there's not at least one single in the top 10 on the Hot 100. That is another one of MC's past mistakes releasing her last two albums without a hit song. Hopefully, Type Dangerous will rise on the charts with streams and radio airplay because of the release of the music video, but ageism is kind of hindering MC right now. Sabrina Carpenter and Ed Sheeran already have two of the most anticipated albums for the latter part of the summer. Currently, Type Dangerous is number #22 on the iTunes chart. (Friday 13 June 2025; 02:06) this is a reply to message 109,251

Next single (109,251) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ya I heard the explosive rumors too and yes you’re right it might not be a ballad and maybe upbeat but I’d still want her to use high profile and mainstream artists if she wants to release a collaboration single. (Friday 13 June 2025; 01:32)

Next single (109,246) by Bobby A from United States It is a rumor on the web that the duet is called Superstar. I am sure the label knows that it will be a hit and they want to release it as the second single to launch the album with some fire behind it. People love duets during the summer too. For example, Jason Aldean's and Kelly Clarkson's Don't You Wanna Stay was a huge hit during the summer of 2011. (Thursday 12 June 2025; 19:31) this is a reply to message 109,243

Next single (109,243) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I know it's premature to talk about this but I have been hearing rumours that the next single is going to be a ballad type duet with Anderson .Paak. There are a few reasons I don't think that's a good idea. - It's the TEOM cloning all over again which tanked E=MC2 and her future releases for trying to do the same format. I think her next single should still be another uptempo song. A fresh new sound like T-Dang. It's summer so let it be fun and something people can enjoy and feel uplifted. Some catchy lyrics, a strong chorus (Sabrina Carpenter dominated summer with her clever lyrics and choruses, the "I'm working late cos I'm a singer" or the catchy chorus of Espresso, or the digs in "Taste" and "Please Please Please" to name a few). So I think her next single should be uptempo and catchy. The general public is seemingly responding well to T-Dang not just lambs which is new and we need the GP to get success. - I honestly think if she is releasing any collaborations as singles it should be high impact and high profile collaborators that can benefit her on the charts if she really wants those #1's stacking up. Also she is possibly in a relation with him and I think it'll be sweeter to keep it as an album track than an official single. Those are my thoughts and 2 cents. (Thursday 12 June 2025; 16:24)

Charts (109,233) by Bobby A from United States The tracking week is Friday [through] Thursday. The chart announcement is next Monday and dated the following Saturday. I asked my Lambs on X. Lol. (Thursday 12 June 2025; 02:34) this is a reply to message 109,231

Charts (109,231) by Tevin from USA When do the Billboard charts update? (Wednesday 11 June 2025; 22:11)

Earth shattering surprise (109,230) by Bobby A from United States I am elated that MC and her team are really doing everything right this time to launch MC16. They must know what is about to be released is the return of Mariah Carey to the charts. She talks about her Anderson .Paak duet as if it is a hit for sure. In addition to Jack Antonoff, my production wishlist is Ryan Tedder, London On Da Track, Bizness Boi, D'Mile, Babyface, Zatoven, Cirkut, Julian Bunetta (Teddy Swims) Busbee, Dev Hynes, and Walter A. I am predicting a late July to early August release date. Ciara announced her new album, CiCi will drop on August 22nd and Sabrina Carpenter's Mankind will drop on August 29th. (Wednesday 11 June 2025; 21:37) this is a reply to message 109,223

Earth shattering surprise (109,223) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Joseph Kahn said that the T-Dang MV will have an earth shattering surprise. I want y'all to chime in and drop what you think it is? So many possibilities. At this point I think this will be a 2 part video or at least a video that has interwoven storylines like Honey/Heartbreaker because it says "a film by Joseph Kahn" so I don't think that's earth shattering because both have been done by her before (it is however very exciting if she does do one of the 2). Below are some of my guesses: 1) One of the Kardashians is involved. 2) Mariah gets her previous MV men to come back. 3) She gets her exes to make a cameo hahah this will be hilarious. 4) Taylor Swift? Because of the Joseph Kahn mutual friend situation. Now that would be earth shattering but I doubt it. 5) Miss RiRi on the remix? Ok I tried to go as far fetched as possible with the others except for #1 hahah. So I want to know what you all think. (Wednesday 11 June 2025; 00:46)

Mariah, on fire (109,227) by Bobby A from United States Zachariah, I am sorry for all of your difficulties. Try this X link. (Wednesday 11 June 2025; 13:35) this is a reply to message 109,226

Mariah, on fire (109,226) by Zachariah from Croatia I tried both options - zero results. When I try to register, there is some kind of blockage for Croatia and I can't register. So dumb that they didn't post it on YouTube while everything else is. (Wednesday 11 June 2025; 12:04)

Mariah, on fire (109,216) by Bobby A from United States You can watch the full show at BET.com with a 24-hour free pass by signing up on their website. [Webmaster: Or you can check their YouTube channel to see if the performance is already uploaded.] (Tuesday 10 June 2025; 16:06) this is a reply to message 109,214

Mariah, on fire (109,214) by Zachariah from Croatia Where can I see the performance? I am trying to find it on YouTube but nothing. (Tuesday 10 June 2025; 15:13)

BET performance (109,209) by Bobby A from United States Now that is how you do it. I loved it. MC's speech was short and sweet. (Tuesday 10 June 2025; 06:08)

Music video (109,201) by Bobby A from United States The Type Dangerous music video teaser looks hot and one of her best videos since TMB. When MC's heart is committed to a project and her team is behind her, she is unstoppable. I love how she is referencing lyrics from her past music videos and revisiting TEOM themes. I guess that is the reason why the ILT esentrik remix has seen an increase on Spotify in the past few days. (Monday 9 June 2025; 21:52)

The visuals and promos (109,190) by Bobby A from United States I don't know who is working with MC on her new team, but the rollout of Type Dangerous and the interviews and visuals after June 6th have been absolutely genius. Did you see what looks like the album cover that MC posted this morning? The pose and color points to a Mariah Carey album cover. I can only think of one other artist who did this exact same type of album rollout in 1991. That album was a huge sucess for the male artist because of the work his team and label did before the album's release. I see a huge promotional plan on the horizon during the next few weeks for Type Dangerous and the release week of MC16. This era is going to be bigger than TEOM because of the media buzz is so high already for MC16. Forget about those 10 tracks from 2023. We are in store for a masterpiece coming up.
