Mental state (109,971)
by ADAM from USA
| |
|
|
I'm also highly curious what the album rollout interviews will look like. I think she has some sort of mental tick. She has not shared with the public, but I think she's had some sort of a stroke or physical laps that makes her unable to answer things in depth or recall easily. Anytime we have seen her when she answered something. It's all premeditated and not natural. I wish you just come clean and therefore you'd have the sympathy of the public and also some truth with your fan base instead of this plastic veneer and all these can terrible answers to questions that we don't care about. I think she's such an interesting figure and has so many stories that she could talk about But she is so guarded and not truthful. I really want the best for her as I feel like this is her last era of music. Hoping for the best - btw I'm obsessed with Sugar Sweet using AfroBeats it's such an ear worm of a jingle and will sound great blasting from anyone's speakers.

Image over substance (109,970)
by ADAM from USA
| |
|
|
My issue with MC for the last decade or so has been she's super obsessed with her physical image - she is afraid of aging and always recreating the past. What made all her imagery great in the 90s was that it was natural, not contrieved and shot by masters of their craft. Seeing her imitate the past just reeks desperation and lazy. You get the feeling her house is labeled head to toe with all her album booklet imagery. I would have less of an issue if I felt like she would put as much effort into recorded music. I remain hopeful for new music however the small snippet of here for it all sounds really chipmunk and sliced several times to piece together one syllable. Tell me this with a callous heart I'm just trying to articulate that I think she would benefit from putting the mirror down and start putting pen of paper and work on her vocal recovery. I think she's a victim of too much cosmetic surgery and too many mirrors in the house.

Hey folks. Longtime visitor, infrequent poster and lifelong fan. Everyone has opinions but some seem to trump theirs over others. I'm here for the new era and everything that comes with it positive wise. Everyone relax and let's hope for the best.

Again unbelievably inaccurate. Look at my response. I simply debunked the insinuation of me bringing "bad vibes", I've been having fun with the discussions here and really enjoy giving Mariah love. Far from "bitchy and petty diatribe".
If you actually wanna talk about petty, look at the contrast of how we treated an exiting lamb. I wished him well and your sentiment to him is, "I'm dead serious, if you go, you can never twerk with us again."
Mariah felt like an outsider and many of her fans connected to her with that. So it's safe to say a lot of lambs is simply looking for a place of connection and belonging. I mean sure, Brad may have had his moments and you can have all the disagreement you want with him but that no one should be rejoicing when someone permanently leaves. It's giving "you have no place in the fandom". You can virtue signal all you want but people can see who the true bullies are.

Everything we know so far (109,967)
by Edward from USA
| |
|
|
Exactly my sentiment about "Dear Boy". When Bobby A mentioned it, I went straight to YouTube to listen to it. My first thought was, Mariah would absolutely obliterate this track. Her masterful skill at stacking up impeccable background vocals would take this song to another dimension. I loved it from the first listen, and I'm really hoping this is the song she'll cover on "Here For It All".

Everything we know so far (109,962)
by Haiji from United States

Ok so here are my thoughts on everything about this new album rollout. Let's start with the cover. After all 3 reveals, I'm starting to like the all black cover. Seems like most natural one out of the three. Like Mimi stated before, the first one is giving magazine cover and I kind of agree with ADAM, the D2C cover looks very AI and too modified. I forget who here mentioned that they don't care about the cover as long as the music is good. You are right, that's really what matters but hey it's Mariah, we want everything to be perfect when it comes to her. I'm hoping for more bonus tracks on the deluxe versions than just the 11-12. I'm honestly not too familiar with The Beatles nor Paul M's discography but I went to listen to a few tracks that could possibly be the cover song and I have to say, Dear Boy would probably be her best option. I felt like Live and Let Die would be just another BOTHB cover. I can already hear and imagine the vocal stacks and harmonies she would bring to Dear Boy, praying I'm right. Yall might tear me apart for this but for some reason, that 10sec teaser of Sugar Sweet isn't doing anything for me yet. It seems catchy but it's not stuck in my head like TD was with the first snippet. Imo the clip made me think instantly of Stay Long Love You, which isn't a favorite of mine. Hoping the lyrics are a bit mature because right now it's giving teen girl bop. Lastly, September seems so far away not sure if that's a good idea. The momentum needs to keep going with more releases until then if that's the case. Drop an all club versions EP of TD. Drop Sugar Sweet, with a great video and remixes, hopefully with JD. She should go on The Breakfast Club around the time of the album release to promote it. Oh and the title caught me off guard. I wasn't expecting a different type of title compared to her previous. It's alright I guess, it just doesn't catch my attention right away. Sounds more like an album cut not an album title. I'm sure I missed a few thing but I'll be back lol.

Physical copy (109,966)

I'll always buy a physical copy. There's just something nostalgic about opening up a new CD, taking out the liner notes and looking though them.

Jamie, go to recordstoreday.com and do a search for MC and a East coast major city zip code. There you will find vinyl record shops who will preorder the HFIA vinyl and possibly order the CD for you and ship to the UK. Also, try Vintage Stock's website and Comeback Vinyl in Atlanta and Grimey's in Nashville. Those three may ship overseas too. Also, I will help too if you can't get the variant that you want.

Very interesting album title. I could care less about the album cover, I care about the music. I hope this album is successful and MC can get herself another number one to her name. "Sugar sweet" has a vibe and is catchy, I already like it so I'm ready.

That would be so cool. I love this song. I always have to think of the scene with Jennifer Lawrence in "American Hustle". So much fun. I can't wait to hear Mariah's version. I so deeply wanted a cover and now we get a Paul McCartney song. Great news.

What are you talking about? I did not state anyone has been silenced because of me. I stated I've had my posts edited and not posted just like others. I am held to the same standards like everyone else. It has been claimed by others that us "characters", as the word that has been used in previous posts, are given privileges on this board. I invite you to reread my post and Edward's post again. 109,930 and 109,942.
Edward, I got another insult hurled my way. Apparently I have no original thoughts. Time to pay myself. Lambi, make note that I did not insult you back. Making statements like that speaks more to your character than mine. Anyway, time for me to move on. Best wishes to you.

Here For It All (109,957)
by BFF from United States
| |
|
|
You know, in retrospect, I don't think seven years has been that much of a wait in comparison to some longer breaks that other artists have taken. Janet Jackson hasn't had a proper studio album since Unbreakable in 2015. Toni Braxton took eight years between Pulse (2010) and Sex & Cigarettes (2018). Maybe Mariah will be able to get more music out now that the twins are teenagers and with Larry Jackson and the Gamma team supporting her.
I'm looking forward to hearing the new music, and I'm really excited for this "Live and Let Die" cover. I love it when Mariah pulls off a random 70s/80s rock cover for us. It seems like some of the songs selected for the album were recorded earlier in the process than others, and it's clear that there were multiple sets of sessions for the album as we heard about during her interviews for the last few years. The collaboration with the Clark Sisters and the songs with just Daniel Moore seem to have been completed before the sessions with Anderson .Paak.
This summer has been super hard for me personally, but having a new Mariah album to look forward to has seriously brightened up my day(s). Happy to have people like Bobby A keeping me in the loop with his X research skills

My impatient self just couldn't trust MC, her team, and Gamma. Her team via Mariah Alerts on X played a game with Lambs today to find Here For It All billboards around L.A. this afternoon. Everything seems to be coming together. Type Dangerous had its biggest streaming increase in awhile on Spotify today.

Album cover (109,956)
by Dove from United States
| |
|
|
I just got an email to preorder the new album and there's an alternate cover. I don't like it. She looks like a robot and her face looks weird. I like the original one much better. I would just pan it out a bit so that the top of her head and her waist showed. But her face looks more relaxed and pretty in the original. It looks easy breezy. Sorry to be negative.
Also, I'll probably buy the mp3 on Amazon but wait a year until I buy the physical CD because by then it'll probably have the max amount of tracks included. Unless Amazon still does AutoRip, then I'll just do that. I know they're available on Spotify but I like having them in my digital library in case they ever get removed. (Like the movie Glitter did. I should have bought a digital copy when it was available. )

D2C cover (109,955)
by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
| |
|
|
Unpopular opinion but I think I like this one the best hahah. Don't get me wrong, it's not perfect, I do not like the outfit much because it's not cover worthy, but I comparatively like this one the most as it's the most cover worthy. The first one I already expressed my views, the second was very Celine Dion (no shade to Celine), very dated and I just didn't think she stood out in the album. This one she's front and center and ready to choose violence. Staring right down at her hater. What I would change about it - I think she would have looked absolutely stunning doing the makeup she did for TDang in the Britney like scene with the dancers and probably choose another outfit no diamond necklace. But still the third cover is by far the best in this series.

D2C cover (109,954)

Sigh. The iconic Daydream pose with 2025 plastic surgery enchantments are not it. Not shaming her decision to alter her appearance, I get it, she wants to be sexy and beautiful fine, but it's cringe to see her recycle such iconography and not modernize her look for a new album. I much prefer the Amazon album cover with full body pose so much - grown but still sexy and something new.

"He doesn't need to change a damn thing", sadly he did though. He's gotten significantly better at proof-reading and editing. It's actually amazing. He allowed Libra Lamb to be posted again only when she expressed how being silenced is the reason why she doesn't come anymore. Her being posted is Eric's response to that, that strike a chord within him so yeah, "he's gotten more fair" is the correct assessment. It's not a bad thing to improve. It brought back a lamb so he clearly did something right.

Eric's been fair with everyone on this board, consistently. That's basically the board's unofficial consensus since dial-up days. He doesn't need to change a damn thing. The man's been moderating like a pro for over two decades, longer than some of you have been out of high school.
If it were up to a few people here with their "cancel everything that mildly annoys me" attitude, this board would've been nuked years ago. So shout out to Eric for keeping this circus running smoothly.

Amen. Well said. None of us "characters" have any kind of "in" with the webmaster. I have a few MC CDs listed in his discography but that's my only connection. I've had posts edited and/or not posted many times. Folks just need to stop feeling like it's their duty to set others straight, to reprimand. I'd be rich too if I got paid for everytime an insult is thrown my way. It's laughable how many times me being a teacher has been made fun of. Honestly, just stop. Enjoy the conversation.

I don't think you fully understood the context. I said, "What's your excuse? Someone was mean so you quit?" Limbra Lamb was like, "No I didn't quit, my messages stopped getting posted." She's expressed her disdain about being silenced but for what ever reason, she is getting posted again so that should be celebrated. A lamb has been redeemed.
Brad obviously falls in the category of "bitter" lambs but not necessarily "silenced" lambs. I can see why you correlate them though but no totally disconnected. I probably should've added spaces on the paragraphs. I have no idea how Brad landed to bitterness. Frankly have zero time to look at his post history but we wish him well, he seemed very insightful. Hopefully he returns.

Nobody said anything negative to Brad, except Victoria, who implied the board was full of "hating ass hoes". I guess she included herself in the mix, minus the "hating" and "ass" parts. Some people just love to stir the pot and make things up. Brad made a vague comment about the board, but nothing specific. It was weird because, as you said, we were all just joking around about album titles and having a good time. The vibe was light.
Looking at his recent posts, it's pretty clear Brad hasn't been happy with anything Mariah-related lately, which is totally fine. The problem is, when he chose to leave, he acted like this place was some toxic nightmare and he just couldn't deal anymore. That doesn't make sense, especially when most folks here actually liked "Type Dangerous" and the video.
Many love playing the victim and throwing digital tantrums, they start acting like they're here to reprimand others, which is just ridiculous. We've got positive folks, critical folks, and everyone in between, but we've all been part of this board for a long time. Brad completely trashed "Type Dangerous", can you imagine if I had gone off on him for not liking it? It'd be absurd.
Time to stop being so damn sensitive, it ain't that serious. This board is going to keep being what it is. If I had a penny for every time someone complained about a person, a post, or the entire board, I'd be filthy rich by now. Some keep trying, but nobody's going to be walking on eggshells here.

Nobody said anything negative to Brad, except Victoria, who implied the board was full of "hating ass hoes". I guess she included herself in the mix, minus the "hating" and "ass" parts. Some people just love to stir the pot and make things up. Brad made a vague comment about the board, but nothing specific. It was weird because, as you said, we were all just joking around about album titles and having a good time. The vibe was light.
Looking at his recent posts, it's pretty clear Brad hasn't been happy with anything Mariah-related lately, which is totally fine. The problem is, when he chose to leave, he acted like this place was some toxic nightmare and he just couldn't deal anymore. That doesn't make sense, especially when most folks here actually liked "Type Dangerous" and the video.
Many love playing the victim and throwing digital tantrums, they start acting like they're here to reprimand others, which is just ridiculous. We've got positive folks, critical folks, and everyone in between, but we've all been part of this board for a long time. Brad completely trashed "Type Dangerous", can you imagine if I had gone off on him for not liking it? It'd be absurd.
Time to stop being so damn sensitive, it ain't that serious. This board is going to keep being what it is. If I had a penny for every time someone complained about a person, a post, or the entire board, I'd be filthy rich by now. Some keep trying, but nobody's going to be walking on eggshells here.
