About Robert-Anthony from United States: I have been a Lamb since 1990. I know Mariah. I love her music. I breathe her music.

Muni Long (105,178) by Robert-Anthony from United States
I imagine on a 2024 JD and MC song, MC would say, "If Jermaine likes it then I like it." His signature tag is so lame now, but he still used it on Ari Lennox's throwback R&B influenced 60s track Pressure.

Who is Caution about? (105,172) by Robert-Anthony from United States
Both of them were inexperinced with the ends and outs of the music industry trying to pursue their dreams. It's a shame that we never experienced another Love Takes Time ballad. I believe Ben's compositions with MC gave us more of Mariah's distinct melodies than Walter A's songs did. Walter A's songs with other artists always had that a small element of melody and instrumentation of songs that he composed with Mariah. For example, Leona Lewis' Here I Am. MC sure does have a long list of songwriters, producers, singers, and rappers that we will never experience a repeat collaboration.

Best concert attendance stats in 25 years (105,163) by Robert-Anthony from United States
Why do I feel MC is the type of artist that has to have a new album out in order to announce a 27 city tour to support it? Just thinking hypothectically that what if her album is completed in late March and she tours the U.S. in April and May before the album drops in late August. Would that fly with Lambs? Or do we want her to stick to her same old formula of dropping the album and tour 6 weeks later? I thought about how JT always switches things up all the time when he is getting ready to drop an album. Who knows maybe JT will drop his new album on April 26th, three days before his world tours kicks off in Vancouver on April 29th. He hasn't made any album release announcement yet. JT has just created buzz for a new album to get his fans ready for his new album. Also, he caused Britney's fans to sabotage his first single, Selfish trajectory on the Hot 100. He sure has angered a lot of other female artist's fans like Britney, Janet, and MC during his solo career, but people still love his music.

Back to Mariah (105,161) by Robert-Anthony from United States
I would love for MC to release Nevertheless and 4 other jazz standards on iTunes as an EP while we wait for MC16. What does she have to lose? It would get people and the media talking about her music.

Tauren Wells (105,155) by Robert-Anthony from United States
If anybody is familiar with the Christian artist, Tauren Wells, he is opening his own church today in Austin Texas. He left Joel Osteen's church in Houston as his musical director. I am on my way to the 8:30am service. I am so excited. Happy Sunday.

Next Friday (105,154) by Robert-Anthony from United States
I don't know the answer to that question. Bill, can give you an definitive answer. I think that there are some special video features of Music Box: Then and Now and Dreamlover in 4K. I need to come over to the streaming side since FYE's Mix and Burn closed their website in September.

Who is Caution about? (105,143) by Robert-Anthony from United States
I think Giving Me Life is about Derek Jeter or Mark Sudak. Both men gave her a happy relationship for a moment in time. Although, Mark Sudak was too behind the scenes probably for MC to married. Did she ever take him to Aspen? 8th Grade is about Ben Marguiles. The Distance is most definitely about Tanaka. Great topic, Matty.

If you think (105,142) by Robert-Anthony from United States
Matty, that's it. Back to Mariah should be the title of MC16. We are getting ready to receive probably MC's most personal album to date.

It just came to me that MC is recording an album that she has always wanted to make. I hopeful that it will be a summer release.

Article: Mariah shows off physique in sparkling "swimwear" (105,114) by Robert-Anthony from United States
Today's topics would fit right into Sociology 101 and Contemporary Social Issues. Lol. What about MC's lack of transparency about who she is collaborating with for MC16? It's Friday everyone. Let's chill with your favorite adult drink.

Recording process (105,108) by Robert-Anthony from United States
Didn't MC say in an inerview that she recorded like 22 songs for E=MC2? The 10 songs that she mentioned in November were just the ones she did with Daniel Moore. I know she is probably going to record about 20 more songs during the next 3 months. Muni Long's Made For Me made me think that she has to be working with JD too. Made For Me has MC wriiten all over it.

Daydream era - unknown performance (105,101) by Robert-Anthony from United States
Right. I can't understand why MC being so secretive this time around. She didn't post any studio pics during the recording of Caution. We would have never known that she was working with Poo Bear if had he not said anything. I just wonder during the recording of the early stages of Caution if she regretted mentioning wanting to work with The Weekend after their conversation. It seemed like he never took her serious enough to make things happen. I think that pissed MC off knowing that she publicly said she wanted to work with him. He seems really arrogant to be around. He never gives any interviews. He broke Selena's heart. His Superbowl half-time show was a hot mess and boring. I don't think MC and The Weekend would have any fun in the studio to create anything. Can't you tell I am a fan of the The Weekend?

I want another Babyface collaboration. He co-wrote Sza's monster hit, Snooze. We need another Babyface collaboration and a Sza feature.

Quantity vs quality (105,082) by Robert-Anthony from United States
6/10 quality type of album is going to be what puts MC back on top. Back to back Top 5 hits on the new album would put a smile on many of our faces. It could lead to a deluxe edition being released with 2-3 new tracks. Something tells me that we are in for something better than Caution and MIAM. MC is being really quiet about who she is working with this time. Who knows we may get a David Guetta dance track or a Ryan Tedder power ballad. Those two are on my wish list.

Starboy (105,067) by Robert-Anthony from United States
Please, no songs on MC16 should sound like Starboy or any The Weekend song. MC should focus on recreating the sound of Butterfly's ballads like My All, Fourth of July, Close My Eyes and Whenever You Call. These are the type of songs that will make radio play MC again. Radio programmers laughed at Save The Day. It was just a horrible idea to include Lauren Hill on the song. GTFO was a hot track, but didn't stick because no one believed MC talked like that to her man. Just mentioning a couple of songs in the futuristic style of Starboy that didn't do anything for MC's career. I believe she gotten the memo this time after Caution was rushed, MIAM had some less than flattering vocal moments, and Memoirs underperformed because L.A. Reid botched the promotional rollout and remix album plans.

I don't remember this backing track fail of WBT on Good Morning America. Wow, that look at the end said somebody is going to get it.

Article: Mariah shows off physique in sparkling "swimwear" (105,053) by Robert-Anthony from United States
Yes, it looks like she had some type of cosmetic procedure done last year. The way she looked December 2022 to July 2023 clearly shows that the diferrent look is more than spending 6 months working hard in the gym. Whatever MC did, the weight loss helped to get 70% of her voice back.

Insider account (105,044) by Robert-Anthony from United States
Obsessed was her last huge upbeat song. It might have done better on the Hot 100 if Gucci Mane was not on the remix. MC should have chosen Drake for the original mix. Also, something tells me MC will have multiple gospel songs on MC16.

Insider account (105,041) by Robert-Anthony from United States
This is great information. Caution was kind of bland and not upbeat to me. I wonder if she is remaking Honey or using it as a sample. Maybe Mary J. Blige's Still Believe in Love inspired MC. It has a hot sample by 70's R&B group Mtume. I could see MC taking the original samples and having a hot young producer of today like Bizness Boi (Chris Brown's Press Me) work his magic. I am really excited that she is trying to do something different for MC16. Mimi will be back on top in 2024.

Andrew (105,033) by Robert-Anthony from United States
I remember that Andrew said back in November or December that he was taking care of his mother and she was getting to him. It's not easy having to take care of your parents. I pray that things get better for Andrew. When he started saying that I didn't have much intelligence in my head or I was thinking too much, that is what hurt the most. My mother enrolled my sisters in the best of schools, but she did seem care not to send me to low performing schools. So, that's why I enrolled in the top universities in Tennessee when I became an adult.

Pre-orders should start shipping by the end of the week for February 1st. Amazon orders are usually the first to get shipped out before MC's store orders. Let the board know when you get your order.

New projects (105,024) by Robert-Anthony from United States
Lol. I wrote a huge response as to why I hope The-Dream amd Tricky Stewart should get 3-4 songs on the new album. My finger hit the square icon on my cellphone and my post disappeared before I could hit submit. I didn't get the "Thank you for posting message." Basically, I said that his signature sound has evolved from 2009 and you can't tell that it is a The-Dream song nowadays when you hear it on the radio.
