Article: Kris Jenner and Mariah Carey go glam for dinner at Giorgio Baldi (113,915) by Stacey from USA
Given the concerns we have for MC's mental health, I think I'd be more worried if Mariah chose to isolate herself rather then spending time with friends. I hope she enjoyed her night out with Kris.

Meds / Andrea (113,914) by Lara from Middle East
Well, we never know the extent of that injury. Seems it affected her much more than what is shown, I think there are some parallels with Michael Jackson Pepsi incident and how it made him dependent on pain killers. Maybe that on top of her bipolar was a hard combo for her to handle. I think that's why I've always seen her singing "survived a gruesome fall" in Nothing is Impossible from HFIA album as a literal description of that 2013 incident.

1992 Interview (113,913) by MusicfanJ from Germany
For me she seemed the most happy during that time. The early years. Then from 97-99 she seemed also very happy and carefree. So before and after Tommy. As I always say they were a fantastic team for business (perfect) but not good for the private life. I always wonder what would have happened if they had never been a couple and married. Just business partners. We'll never know, but somehow I think some things would be better now.

Music Box tour (MSG) (113,912) by Billy from Greece
I was revisiting this concert today. Such a force vocally, a generational talent no doubt. When she breaks into the club remix of "Dreamlover" and starts vibing and adlibbing, wow, what a time to be young and experience that concert. She's practically jogging on stage while belting out. So nostalgic watching her so young and delivering at the max of her powers.

1992 Interview (113,911) by Lainsky from Philippines
I saw this video, too. And yes, I also asked the same question. Good times, before being married to Tommy, she was so relaxed and happy.

Where is the key for stamina, motivation and good music? (113,910) by Zachariah from Croatia
I think that's a bit unfair. We only see a very small part of her life through media and social networks, so it's hard to know what truly motivates her or who she spends time with. An artist's value isn't measured only by how often they release new music or whether they're constantly in the spotlight. Everyone goes through different phases in their career and personal life.

It's fine to prefer artists who are actively creating new work, but that doesn't necessarily mean someone has lost their talent or motivation. Sometimes what we see publicly doesn't reflect what's happening behind the scenes.

Respectfully, none of us really know her personal motivations or the people she spends time with. Public appearances don't tell the whole story. Talent doesn't disappear just because an artist isn't releasing music at the pace some fans would like, and comparing different artists' careers isn't always a fair measure of success.

You're assuming a lot based on limited public appearances. Being seen dining out doesn't define a person's character, work ethic, or talent. Artists have different career paths, and not everyone needs to follow the same model as Kylie Minogue, Patti LaBelle, or Madonna to remain relevant or successful.

MC seems to be still suffering from the affects of her 2013 injury. She dislocated her shoulder, right?

Meds / Andrea (113,906) by Giovanni from USA
I'm so over Mariah being doped up on the meds, it's so sad and cringe. No other artist or celebrity is as robotic and controlled as she is. I mean if that's what it takes to contain her bipolar disorder it's not worth it. She is not even the same Mariah 6 years ago. Also that Andrea woman that is always with her needs to chill. I get that she's doing her job and is earning her paycheck but when I saw a clip of Mariah talking with Kim K she couldn't even have a conversation because Andrea popped up and was giving the hint to Mariah to move along. Is she with her 24/7? Does anyone else agree with me?

Where is the key for stamina, motivation and good music? (113,905) by nancy from Switzerland
It is better if MC hangs out with less superficial people. Those encounters have a impact on her image, stamina and her motivation lately. True legends are known for their talent not only because of their dresses. Kylie Minogue, Patti Labelle, Madonna still are making new music. It seems that the only motivation is her looks and to sing her old stuff. And it is not even live anymore most of the time.The only presence that we see is when she gets out to eat. I hope she finds the key to reopen her talent and her motivation.

This is so early 90s coded - from the talk show host to the audience. Where has the time gone? That's between Emotions and Unplugged.

Ewww. I can't stand the Kardashians and what they represent. I'm disappointed she gets along with those people. Personal opinion, not gonna matter anyway but just wanted to express it.

Petal collaboration (113,901) by Lighty from China
No no dear Bobby A, I love reading your posts because you're always hopeful and positive about everything. I was just saying that based on Mariah's recent collaborations of the past few years with Ari, Latto, etc. None of those made any big splashes.

Petal collaboration (113,900) by Bobby A from United States
I am just hopeful for it. Lighty, what message of mine last year did I lose my creditability with you? Just joking, but you have been calling me out a lot lately. I don't make crazy predictions like I did during the Memoirs and MIAM eras. Lol. I ponder over my posts now before I hit the submit button.

A direct tribute to MC or a collaboration doesn't automatically make it a hit though.

Petal collaboration (113,898) by Bobby A from United States
Since Ariana's new single is about her fans, I am hoping the second single is a direct tribute to MC or a collaboration. It only makes sense in my opinion for hit second single. Also, pop radio needs a certified pop hit this summer. There hasn't been one at all this year.

Article: Mariah Carey to take Christmastime special international (113,897) by Lambi from USA
I love this so much. Fresh off the peak of her superstardom and commercial success, she was probably at her most confident/ambitious state, eager to really meet and exceed expectations even way more. Also happened to be in a perfect pristine vocal condition; right in between MB and DD. I'm shamelessly on board with this being the Mariah most will remember. I know WBT is absolutely up to par, but that God-given youthful tone she had in 94 just can't be quite recaptured. She didn't exactly step back vocally either. It's a beautiful showcase of her immense musical talent and I'm glad everyone is reminded annually.

Article: Mariah Carey to take Christmastime special international (113,896) by Lambi from USA
Christmas could have potentially belonged to Whitney, Aretha, or any other vocally gifted soulful singer, but it was Mariah who God ultimately handpicked for the season. She was given an assignment in 94, and she simply did a phenomenal job.

It's a double-edged sword though, it's a yearly commercial phenomenon but it also does inevitably reduce her to Christmas. However, from a business stand point, it makes perfect sense to jump in on a stock that predictably spikes up every November and December. You'd be an idiot to not.

It may have irked her not having massive soundtrack success like Whitney and Celine did but now that All I Want has reached full resurgence and completely dominates every holiday season, I don't think she's capable of being bitter at all. You just can't be. You just become perpetually festive.

Mariah: remixed and reimagined (113,895) by John from USA
Current artists are actually not as fortunate as the 80s through early 2000s, where album and single sales made up much of their earnings. Most have to depend on concert ticket sales and endorsements. Currently only Taylor Swift seems to be selling concert tickets reliably, while others have been canceling tour dates here and there. Mariah has an extensive catalogue that needs to be reintroduced to a modern audience. I think she should work with new producers, give them her songs (along with raw recording outtakes from the original recordings) for them to be remade. This would help reintroduce her catalogue to the youth. While Mariah is fortunate she has Christmas to always fall back on, she is so much more than just one holiday season.

What a breath of fresh air MCA is (113,894) by Syed from UK
Thanks Xavier, it's: VisionOfLamb_ and it's the 2nd post down. Excited to see what you make of it. Ultimately I hope to re-record it professionally and release in as many languages as possible, even if that means giving it away to artists in other countries to translate and release themselves. Mariah gave me the gift of hope. I would love to pay it forward.

P.s One of her songs is referenced in it too

Article: Mariah Carey to take Christmastime special international (113,892) by Lainsky from Philippines
Thank you, MusicfanJ. And Zachariah, I totally agree with cultural permanence. Mariah has undoubtedly become a part of the global cultural Christmas celebration, and this is her legacy for the season alone, distinct from her broader influence in the music industry, where she is a legacy in her own right, meaning the historical impact she has made.

Article: Mariah Carey to take Christmastime special international (113,891) by Stacey from USA
Seriously, right? I agree with you 100%. To write and sing an original holiday song that is mentioned alongside the such great Christmas classics like White Christmas and The Christmas Song is probably her greatest accomplishment. You can't ring in holidays without singing, "I, don't want a lot for Christmas..." That song is a part of the standard hits we sing each year. It amazes me that the song seems to grow in popularity each year. Name another artist that has done this.
