Re: Promo plan (84,560) (84,573) by Shezz from Pk I have a sneaking suspicion that they're pulling the plug on With You because it's not selling. They built it up too much and people were not as taken by it as they were themselves. Silly though because the video, radio airplay and some promo would help it sell. The video looks liks it's a more artistic version of the typical Mimi videos of late. Strange that she keeps teasing the video but isn't even announcing its release date. Maybe they're working on something like a remix to save it. I don't think for a second that Drake is going to put himself on this song. Everything hangs on the AMAs performance tomorrow.

Mike Will made it (84,572) by Gee from U.S.A. (New York City) Someone who attended the listening party let the cat out of the bag but they made a note that they do not know how many of songs he produced will be included in the final cut. (Tuesday 9 October 2018; 01:59)

Re: AMA's seating chart (84,559) (84,571) by Atwood from NY You're right, she will probably leave after her performance lol. (Tuesday 9 October 2018; 01:29)

Music biz today (84,570) by DK from USA In line with success expectations towards MC’s new music here is a good article that pretty much describes a very different industry landscape where flopping seems to be the the new norm... from Gaga to Christina. (Tuesday 9 October 2018; 01:21)

Re: Will Mariah sing live at the AMA's? (84,555) (84,569) by loverboy from Canada She'll probably perform "With You" but I highly doubt it will be completely live. God forbid she sings a song completely live. (Tuesday 9 October 2018; 01:09)

Re: Promo plan (84,566) (84,568) by B from USA All we know is she's releasing an album later this year that will include GTFO and With You. (Monday 8 October 2018; 23:55)

Re: BT (84,564) (84,567) by Edward from USA I wonder when Tanake will get out of the picture. Someone on this messageboard has been cheating on her husband with him. Emotionally that is. It's somebody Special, but I'm not naming names, K? (Monday 8 October 2018; 23:29)

Re: Promo plan (84,565) (84,566) by RibbonB from USA You think an announcement would have that impact? It's already been announced hasn't it? Or do you mean the title? I can't imagine anything short of a shoe flying and a bump on JLo's forehead, ala Cardi and Nicki at NYFW breaking the internet. (Monday 8 October 2018; 22:25)

Re: Promo plan (84,560) (84,565) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Okay, here I am possibly setting myself up for disappointment again, but wouldn't it be great if she just dropped the album by announcing it at the AMAs? Like real time. It would be like a Beyoncé release, but announced on live broadcast (unless she lips the announcement as well, haha, kidding). It would be an unexpected but welcome move. It could be the closest she's gotten to breaking the internet since the NYE debacle. (Monday 8 October 2018; 22:18)

Re: BT (84,547) (84,564) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada And don't mess with Special K's baby BT. (Monday 8 October 2018; 21:57)

Re: Promo plan (84,560) (84,563) by Billy from England, UK That plan with Drake would be brilliant. (Monday 8 October 2018; 21:52)

Re: Nick Cannon's mind games (84,550) (84,562) by RibbonB from USA Thanks Deedre, same for you. (Monday 8 October 2018; 21:08)

With You airplay (84,561) by Leito from USA Looks like "With You" has some airplay. It's currently #45 (up 5) on Urban A/C. (Monday 8 October 2018; 20:38)

Promo plan (84,560) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter So I think I've already made it clear that I love the song and it's been a few days and I still have it on repeat, however, I am curious as to what exactly is Mariah's promo plan with the song? She must have been really confident about it to release it as the lead single (and I'm saying lead with emphasis) that too only 3 weeks after she released a new song. She also made it abundantly clear that GTFO was a buzz single and WY is the lead, so I'm curious that why is this song being ignored. Apart from the AMAs performance, we know of no other promotional plan like TV interviews/musical guest appearances, or any other form of press releases/interviews. She has been teasing the music video but is yet to release it. She will be out on international tour soon, so when exactly will the promo kick in? I just read on UKMix, someone was theorizing (one can call it "reaching for it") that maybe Mariah is holding off on the video because she will premier a remix with Drake at the AMAs, and then release the video with Drake. Now if this becomes true, it will be a brilliant move on Mariah's part and I'm here for it. Any of you have any idea about what could Mariah's strategy possibly be? Because no matter how big a bubble Mariah lives in, I don't think she's that daft to think she can top charts or get exposure for her song without any solid promo. (Monday 8 October 2018; 20:38)

Re: AMA's seating chart (84,544) (84,559) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Maybe Mariah will sing a line from her new song to J.Lo, and by new song I mean the line "How 'bout you GTFO". In all seriousness though, Mariah can make headlines by finally "knowing" who J.Lo is haha. I hope she sits through the show though, instead of leaving. The exposure will help her. I don't think she sat through any award show until date since the TEOM era. (Monday 8 October 2018; 20:27)

Re: Big Jim (84,530) (84,558) by RibbonB from USA Yes, they made an excellent team. I hope the rumor wasn't true, and didn't contribute to his problems. (Monday 8 October 2018; 20:10)

Re: Classic Mariah (84,545) (84,557) by Lexingz from Estonia This is exactly what I want - an album which is predominantly produced like the examples you gave (all of them great songs). True jazz is something a little bit different. I don't need her to go there, there is no reason. (Monday 8 October 2018; 19:48)

GTFO (84,556) by B from USA Let's put things into perspective, in less than a month GTFO has 4.6 millions views on YouTube while You're Mine (Eternal) which was released 4 and a half years ago only has 10 million views. (Monday 8 October 2018; 19:33)

Will Mariah sing live at the AMA's? (84,555) by Kevyn from Germany I don't know why but I have the strange feeling that her performance at the American Music Awards will become a flop. Mariah is neither able to sing "With you" nor "GTFO" with her current voice live, so I don't know which song she will perform? If Mariah really dares to stay stiffly in front of her microphone on stage and pretend to sing any of these two songs I know this will be her last performance on any important award show. I really want Mariah to succeed but she's literally doing everything to destroy her status as "Songbird Supreme". You really need to know when your time is up and if that's the case you should focus on something else. She still can rock Vegas and the Christmas season each and every year without releasing weak songs once in a while just to stay relevant. I'm also really tired of seeing Mariah running around in lingerie while drinking alcohol at every possible situation and cursing in her songs. (Monday 8 October 2018; 19:30)

Re: Classic Mariah (84,545) (84,554) by Shezz from Pk Mariah has certainly shown that she is talented enough to dabble in and make any genre work for her from jazz to disco to rock to country. I still don’t think she will be in the headspace anytime soon to turn any one of those into a whole feature album. I think even JD said something to that effect in an interview once. It ain’t happening. (Monday 8 October 2018; 19:07)

Edward, Eric, Andrew and the MCA family (84,553) by Randy from USA I don't think I'm the grumpy nephew although I'm eternally 12 and clearly remember when Edward and I used to eavesdrop on MC in Sing-Sing. It was while Special K and Jade were classmate of MCs completing 500 hours of Beauty School and Andrew, Adam and Bill were bullies in the schoolyard. It was around the time Eric forgot to tell MC she wouldn't be the only judge. I lay awake sometimes under the covers listening to the radio. Always remember that I need at least 8 hours to put on a good performance because songwriting is more than half of what I do and it's all about the ensemble sometimes when you're a diva. I've often wondered if there's ever been a perfect family. Wait. It's us here at MCA. (Monday 8 October 2018; 18:40)

Re: Classic Mariah (84,545) (84,551) by MusicfanJ from Germany I would love a jazz album too. She can still be an RnB singer but making one jazz album, because she is able to do it like the examples "The wind", " Subtle invitation" has shown. Even Lada Gaga did one with Tony Bennett, respect for that. When Mariah was on tour and did the introducing of the band, it was also very jazzy and sounded so good. And it's not like we are asking for a rock or country album. And she sung the Billie Holiday song live. Hmm I will keep that dream. (Monday 8 October 2018; 18:32)

Re: Nick Cannon's mind games (84,543) (84,550) by Deedre aka MiTodoChop @HBF from Canada RibbonB, your posts and commentary are appreciated. (Monday 8 October 2018; 18:31)

AMAs rehearsal (84,549) by Carlos from Brazil Did Mariah skip the reherasal? There are pictures of some artists that did show up. (Monday 8 October 2018; 18:30)

New photo from the MV (84,548) by Malcolm from Asia This is what I'm talking about. Ugh I'm excited for the music video, wish she will wear that hairstyle on AMAs. (Monday 8 October 2018; 17:49)
