Oh well more tours announced (108,247)
by Will from England
| |
|

She can work on all the new music she likes, but it costs money, and right now whatever album she is working on will not be generating any meaningful profit for a record company to put any money behind or support it. So, she either is paying for it herself, which is why it's taking so long and why she's continually touring to get income in the meantime, or she's not finding a record company big enough to give her the attention she wants for it. She isn't capable of doing it a la Prince and just releasing it whenever she wants because she still doesn't have the right connections or business know how on how to do it.

So in addition to Brighton Pride in August she will be doing a show in Brazil in September. Let's hope she can work on some new music before that. I hope that in the time she has until August she can get some solid work done.
Is anybody really excited about the biopic she badly wants to do? It could be interesting, especially since she won't be acting in it but I hope she focuses on new music first.

The thing is, is that we've seen Mariah do those things in the past, and then lost interest in them. She never has had any project outside of music last more than a year, and then it goes away. To me is speaks to another point that was raised that she isn't the best business woman when it comes to it, and misses out on opportunities to actually make something of a brand. Look at Rihanna with her cosmetics line or Beyonce with her perfumes. Mariah does it for a moment and then moves on when something else catches her fancy.

MC needs something else to enhance her career instead of perfoming. I would love to see her partner with a cosmetics or clothing company using an original song sung by another artist. I would even be elated if she took some time off from performing for 1 year. Plus, Beyond the Gates on CBS is going to keep me glued to the TV with this hot new daytime soap opera cast. I have never seem a more attractive and talented cast on new TV program. I can't wait until Monday.

Licensing (108,245)
by Will from England

I've noticed in the UK that more Mariah songs are being used in TV ads, such as Just Eat/Deliveroo (using Fantasy) and the new Bridget Jones trailer had her whistle note from the Big Energy remix. The radio station Magic has always played Mariah but lately they've been playing her more and more I've noticed as well. From almost never licensing her songs out for film or ads, there's been a noticeable increase lately - another venue for her to generate an income?

I don't think MC is hurting for money, but we all know her net worth has taken a 20 percent hit during the past 6 years without a new album and a huge world tour. I forgot to mention this in my last post that I would love to see MC on an ABC or NBC comedy show episode next fall season. I did enjoy MC in Wisegirls as Raychel.

I didn't know she signed with Live Nation. What bothers me about that is she's never been much of a performer. Even when she had the voice. I get record companies aren't handing out piles of cash to sign her but what about her past royalties? They're not enough to keep her afloat? I remember when she and Nick filed for divorce and some of the financials leaked. It surprised me that MC only made $4 million one year. For me, that would set me for retirement. But for her, the overhead, dahing. Trey Lorenz's sparkly blazer dry cleaning bills, Mary Ann Tatum's vocal coach studio rent, Evian with gold flakes for the dogs, Kristopher Buckle's contouring techniques copyright use, the squire who holds her iPhone, the squire who holds her Android, the rhinestone encrusted Suburban she is carried around in. She needs to seriously scale it back or sell her catalogue in one of those ridiculous publishing deals, if she plans to live at her present level. Maybe she should've married Packer. I kid. I kid.

You have the impressive talent of pulling facts and half truths out of your behind like there's no tomorrow. Mariah doesn't have to do anything she doesn't want to. She learned her lesson very well in the '90s. Her agreement with Live Nation isn't some ironclad obligation forcing her to be on tour nonstop as if she were a slave.
This isn't like a traditional record deal where artists get cash advances they have to pay back. Even if it were structured that way, she still has to consent to whatever is booked. Live Nation doesn't own Mariah, she has full control over her schedule and can take a break whenever she wants without issue.
So, stop with the "Me I'm Mariah, a poor damsel in distress" narrative. Mariah has more control over her career now than ever before, so no, she's not forced to be there, she chooses to be there. Once she agrees and signs the contract, she is contractually obligated to fulfill the terms, including any concerts or tours outlined in the agreement.

Did you all forget? She does have to be there and keep doing shows. She signed a touring deal with Live Nation at the end of 2017. Her new residency had already begun that year, so they missed out on that and 2017's Christmas season too. Stella was out and Jay's team moved in. Live Nation only had her half the time because the residency took up so much time. It's why she needed an album out in 2018, so they could schedule her next year. Right after the AMA's in the pink dress LN sent her to Asia for a 1 month greatest hits tour before sending her back to the US to finish promoting her album and then doing Christmas shows before having her go on tour for Caution. She still had her residency and then the 25th anniversary of Christmas. Mariah was working around the clock which is why she fired Jay's management team for a smaller manager that would give her more breaks and smaller venues. Probably less commission too. Live Nation was looking forward to 2020 since all her old contracts would be up and 100% of her touring belonged to them, but that didn't happen due to the pandemic. It's why they're working her so hard now.

I just don't see the fire. Mariah has been like this off and on since Stella. It would scare me more if she moved around the stage, had banter and wasn't singing along to her own voice in the background. I 100% get she doesn't want to be there but that's common knowledge and people will still go see her because she's an icon. My concern is it does reek of financial trouble and not necessarily, I love to perform so much I don't know when to bow out gracefully. Mariah is fine. She is gigging to make sure she can keep Kristopher Buckle, Mary Ann Tatum, Trey Lorenz, Daniel Moore, the umbrella holder, the rental in LA, the G5, the upkeep on the NYC pad and the house in the Bahamas taken care of. I don't see Whitney Houston's decline. I see more of a Joan Crawford, Judy Garland thing here. "I'm Mariah, dahling. I can't be broke."

Agreed Randy. If you look at the Brazil concert videos, she was definitely a whole lot more invested and present than the Vegas residency ones. If she doesn't have more music for now she can focus on her biopic (with the right team). Let's hope she works on getting herself back together now with this break.

The clothing and perfuming offerings are bad ideas RA. The market is saturated. But you are definitely onto something with the writing and producing for other artists as an artist. Mariah can write circles around Kandi Burruss, Montell Jordan and Neyo. Look what they've done for others. And she could definitely write as well as those I consider close to her league Lauryn Hill, R Kelly, Babyface and Kanye. Again, look at what they've done for others. She could've written for Olivia Rodrigo, Sabrina Carpenter, Harry Styles or any other new artists that sell a lot of records and she could do a live festival once a year.

I just wish that either she would be forthcoming (ala Celine) and let us know that something is going on so we can support and cheer her on. If not, quietly take a break from performing and get herself together. Then come back focused and determined to rule the music game again.

Mariah is far from being a mom and pop, but she isn't a corporation either. She'd better downsize to avoid a potential financial/health disaster. I believe most of the people who tour with her, aside from the dance crew, not only get paid when she works. She doesn’t necessarily need to be constantly putting herself out there like this.
Gone are the days when she would take a break, focus on her craft, and return refreshed and stronger.

Agreed. The bottom line is that she's still getting booked. So organizers of these shows don't really see her performances as critically as we do. They only care that she can still fill up theaters and that's fine for them. And in places like China and Brazil she can still fill stadiums. It is what it is basically. I'm still hopeful for some music. We got two collaborative remixes last year as well as two amazing house remixes in a pretty much dead year.

I have mixed feelings about this performance of Shake It Off from 2 days ago. I am glad that MC can take a break now from performances for awhile. I would love for MC to reinvent herself and her music before releasing MC16. I am hoping MC can become the new Lana Del Rey in terms of reinventing herself and people loving her music like it was her first album.

Lol. I love your optimism, but just no, [that] just reminded me of that hideous "Fall in love at Christmas" song with Khalid and Kirk Franklin (ugh). I also really don't like Kim Burrell, her style of Gospel, [definitely] don't like her [voice] either. She's only known in Gospel [because] she's capable of doing riffs and runs and honestly, I always feel that's overrated, I prefer straight singing with a little bit of riffs and runs only when the song calls for it, or the melody gets lost. Reason why I don't dig Jazmine Sullivan, nor Beyoncé's singing either. Mariah needs a vocal coach who understands whistle register voices, they work differently from regular voices. Then the bad habits - [bubbly], breaking into whistles even when talking, talking too much etc. I guarantee you, she would see changes positively.

Did anyone go to MC's remaining Vegas shows after the People article stated that people were concerned about her last few shows? I was wondering if that sparked her back to life again on stage or if it was more of the same.

Lol. I love your optimism, but just no, [that] just reminded me of that hideous "Fall in love at Christmas" song with Khalid and Kirk Franklin (ugh). I also really don't like Kim Burrell, her style of Gospel, [definitely] don't like her [voice] either. She's only known in Gospel [because] she's capable of doing riffs and runs and honestly, I always feel that's overrated, I prefer straight singing with a little bit of riffs and runs only when the song calls for it, or the melody gets lost. Reason why I don't dig Jazmine Sullivan, nor Beyoncé's singing either. Mariah needs a vocal coach who understands whistle register voices, they work differently from regular voices. Then the bad habits - [bubbly], breaking into whistles even when talking, talking too much etc. I guarantee you, she would see changes positively.

All I know is that Mariah should be sending the man she was writing about in "Loverboy" my way if she's no longer in need of his services.

I'm cackling because what a thought hahah. Mariah was wildin' out on some of her lyrics. People think Ariana was wild with 34+35, they need to look into Mariah' s Thirst Catalogue of Spicy Jams.

Terna, I was thinking today that MC should try a more spiritual church method to improve her voice. Gospel artist and pastor Kim Burrell could help MC by getting her to do a couple of church performances after a month of strengthening her voice with her Kim Burrell could help MC improve her voice with some old church hymns without all of the studio gimmicks. Because He Lives, Lead Me Oh Lord and I Surrender My All are the perfect hymn songs for improving your vocal skills. I am just thinking how I love to hear MC sing gospel songs.

I have always wondered something about one of the lines in "Loverboy". When Mariah sings "When he invites me over, I come every time," did she mean she goes over to hang with him every time she is invited or does she mean that he brings her to orgasm every time? She was dating Luis at the time the song was recorded, so if it's the latter, he must have been loving her down.
The songs lyrics give me the same vibe as the "Honey" lyrics where I am unsure if Mariah's being intentionally provocative or doing her coquettish "I'm Mary Poppins" shtick and playing dumb about the double entendres lol.

Oh, Robert Anthony. You know all of those gospel types have tons of pent up sexual energy, that's why Aretha had to do secular music rather than just gospel lol. I care about Mariah's spiritual needs, but my girl needs to get loved down as well.

Lol. It is Sunday BFF. You and I were thinking about MC in two totally different realms. I am trying to get her back in church to help MC reach the top of her soprano again. Lol.
