| Brandy's interview with Rated R&B was really good. She has so much respect for MC. She said MC coached her in the recording booth and she did whatever she asked her to do. Some good things are on the way y'all. |

School Gyrls (99,379)
by Robert-Anthony from United States
(Wednesday 5 January 2022; 20:16) | | |
| On the School Gyrls's song, Get Like Me, MC does not receive any background vocal credit on the song. However, it's truly evident that she is singing on the song she co-wrote. Am I right? I wonder how many other songs she ghosted on. Don't Go Looking For Love? Last Chance? Head Over Heels? |

Re: Vinyls (99,359) (99,360)

| The Rarities on vinyl is actual a rarity itself now. Lol. The prices on eBay and Amazon are outrageous. I am glad that all who purchased a copy in 2020 including myself got one at a reasonable price. The 12's are going for an outrageous price too on eBay. I need to go onto Fye's Mix and Burn website and order all of the Memoirs, MIAM, and Caution remixes on a mix and burn CD. I don't know why I haven't done it yet. We are all waiting on some more goodies from her store. |

I have all of her albums on vinyl that were made available on her store and other online retail companies in 2020. I have all of her 12 inches and promo 12 inches that were released on vinyl in the U.S. when you could go to a record shop and buy 12 inches. I was able to recently purchase the following on Ebay:
#1's
Glitter - DJ promo copy
Men In Black soundtrack - Make You Happy
Luther Vandross's Songs album
Sweetheart - 12 inch promos
Memoirs box set
Yours - remix promo vinyl
Butterfly picture disc
Daydream - Vinyl Me Please edition
Caution - picture disc from MC's store
Merry Christmas - 20th anniversary edition
Merry Christmas II You - black vinyl edition
Caution - black Vinyl edition
Obsessed remix promo vinyl
I have all of the Walmart and Target exclusives. |

MC's store expectation (99,346)
by Robert-Anthony from United States
(Sunday 2 January 2022; 03:51) | | |
| I am expecting some huge vinyl items to be dropped in MC's store this year. What if she released Someone's Ugly Daughter on vinyl and CD. What about The Rarities 2 being released. She has to make it big in 2022. What if five new versions of Butterfly songs is included with 6 new songs titled The Butterfly Lounge. MC said herself that what is coming is more than The Roof and this and that. Mary J. Blige did something similar with Mary J Blige and Friends and Reflections: A Retropective. I think that I am on to something. I know there is a love/hate relationship for me on this board, but I do think outside of the box. We should have a huge announcement sometime after Valentine's Day. |

Re: Fisticuffs and #Beautiful (99,338) (99,340)

| However, the Fisticuffs didn't have any part of producing the song. The backstory is Miguel called in Mac Robinson, Brian Keith Warfield, Happy Perez and Brook "D'Leau" Davis for a songwriting session. MC and Miguel got together and he presented her with the unfinished song from the session. |

| Hopefully, she will make the Lambs happy. I guess she is treating the The Roof like a remix but is not saying that because of trying to keep the details of project under wraps. I know one song that she will never touch. That song is Fantasy. She still receives airplay for Fantasy. |

Fisticuffs and #Beautiful (99,333)
by Robert-Anthony from United States

| I did not know that these two writers known as the producer duo the Fisticuffs co-wrote #Beautiful. Brian Warfield and Mac Robinson are their names. I wonder why Miguel and MC chose Happy Perez to produce the track. |

| I have to agree with you that MC should go with Netflix. She needs to reach a wider audience with Butterfly Lounge. I don't think Apple could that because they don't hold the streaming market like Netflix. Plus, she is probably going to use the streaming service to promote 25th anniversary of Butterfly. |

Never Forget You (99,300)
by Robert-Anthony from United States
(Sunday 26 December 2021; 23:41) | | |
| I was thinking about the Babyface sound today and Never Forget You came to my mind. I am just wondering could MC sing it in the same key today. She recorded it in her head voice. I think that she could do it with proper rest. Lambs, oh how I wish MC would return back to these straight forward songs with every song on MC16. She would be surprised how radio and the buying public would respond to her again. The buying public and radio really hate it when they hear her whistle notes and excessive belting in every song. They want to hear a Walter A. collaboration just like the rest of us. I often wonder how a MC/Walter collaboration would sound today. Their compositions were so recognizable back in the 90s. Just me thinking again the day after Christmas. Lol. |

Best video director (99,287)
by Robert-Anthony from United States
(Saturday 25 December 2021; 22:35) | | |
Which director has created the best videos for MC?
1. Diane Martel
2. Joseph Kahn
3. Brett Ratner
4. Jake Nava
5. Paul Hunter
6. Sanaa Hamri
Which one is your favorite? I am on a search today on eBay to find all of MC's videos on DVD. My favorite director is Jake Nava. I love Shake It Off and Get Your Number. I think they were filmed at the same time to go with the simultaneous release of Shake It Off (U.S.) and Get Your Number (U.K.). Am I right Bill? |

| Maybe Mariah's antics and strange behavior is her way of making like fun for Roc and Roe. She is only giving them the life she didn't have. I think the lyrics to Outside says it all for MC. |

| MC just needs to get back into the studio and create a new album. I miss her posting pics of her studio session with so and so. I think because of Covid-19 her whole creative mojo is just off and affecting her mentally. Hopefully, she will give us some insight on her upcoming plans for 2022. |
