About Bobby A from United States: I have been a Lamb since 1990. I know Mariah. I love her music. I breathe her music.

Re: Mariah's voice returning (85,613) (85,615) by Bobby A from United States I don't know of any other singer whose voice gets analyzed and critiqued as much as Mariah Carey. MJ could sound hoarse, grunt, hee hee, and sha mone during his concerts and nobody ever analyzed and critiqued his voice like we do MC. She can't win for even sounding good on during the Asia tour. What gives. (Sunday 4 November 2018; 23:50)

Re: Mariah vs. Michael (85,601) (85,606) by Bobby A from United States Mariah is going to be number #1 easily because her team has really been promoting Caution with 4 tracks, videos, and social media fan promos. It is going to be awesome to see her at Number 1 on the 23rd on Billboard. If you all plan on purchasing a physical copy from retailers like Target, Best Buy, Wal-Mart and FYE, you may want call them early on the 16th to reserve one for you before you make the trip there. I am predicting physical copies are going to go really fast on 16th because of lack of huge quantities available at these retailers on the 16th. The big push has been pre-orders and the day of digital sales on the 16th. (Sunday 4 November 2018; 18:29)

Re: A No No (85,600) (85,604) by Bobby A from United States I think MC's decision to use Crush On You sample is so brilliant of her. Twelve more days until Caution drops. It hard to believe that the 16th is almost here. (Sunday 4 November 2018; 17:07)

A No No (85,595) by Bobby A from United States JD just confirmed on Twitter to me that he is the producer for A No No. So what is going to happen to other songs she did with him, BMC, Johnta Austin, and Bobby Ross Avila? Sounds like there is a plan for Caution Part 2 next Spring. (Sunday 4 November 2018; 02:13)

Caution album (85,556) by Bobby A from United States I can't believe only 10 tracks. Surely there is a deluxe edition or Caution Part 2 coming when the tour kicks off. Just sounds like her team has something else planned next year. (Friday 2 November 2018; 17:39)

Caution album- Japanese edition (85,555) by Bobby A from United States Does anybody have other websites that they use to order Japanese edition CDs other than CD Universe and HMV? I want to preorder mine today. (Friday 2 November 2018; 17:29)

Re: Caution standard edition tracklist (85,420) (85,426) by Bobby A from United States Maybe a 10 track Caution album story for November 16th and then when the Caution Tour is in full swing she will re-release Caution part 2 to push the album and tour sales. I just don't see JD's aggressive tracks apart of this 10-track release. Who knows what her team has planned in the coming weeks for the actual 16th release? Maybe a Target Exclusive CD/DVD with extra tracks and Making of Caution DVD or even a Deluxe Version with extra tracks at all retailers. Remember she did tweet last week the sneak peek of the making of The Distance as if more was to come on the 16th. The 10-track release must be telling a story. It begins with GTFO and ends with Truthfully. What we have heard so far is kind of a synopsis of what has happen in MC's life in the last 4 years. The other 6 remaining tracks are going to be very revealing to our ears. I can't wait to hear the Caution story on the 16th on my way to Nashville. (Monday 29 October 2018; 22:39)

Re: A No No (85,371) (85,379) by Bobby A from United States Did Epic release A No No from the album? I don't know if everybody else knows, but A No No is now showing up as track 4 on Amazon. However, you can't download it like the other 3 released tracks. These songs being released or leaked is becoming interesting everyday. I just feel that there will be more than 10 tracks on the album on November 16th. (Sunday 28 October 2018; 02:58)

Re: Caution to feature a cover song? (85,351) (85,360) by Bobby A from United States I was hoping for a cover song too. But I don't think Caution will have a cover song. It wouldn't fit into Caution/Love Lost/Love Gain theme. The remaining 6 tracks on the album that we haven't heard will be the JD/BMC, JD/Johnta Austin/Bobby Ross Avila, No ID/Prince Charlez/Poo Bear/Skrillex, Mike Will Made It, Blood Orange and Diane Warren tracks. Any bonus tracks will be a few surprise collaborators and JD fillers. (Saturday 27 October 2018; 17:48)

Caution album (85,358) by Bobby A from United States I am wondering what her team has planned for the November 16th release day. Because Caution is going to be MC's Thriller, she needs a huge promotional event day. This is her best cohesive work since TEOM. I remember some big release day events for TEOM and E=MC2. Something big has to be planned to hype up and drive Caution album sales. Lots of opportunities like GMA performance, Mariah and collaborators question and answer on Facebook, Empire State Building lit up in pink and blue, E network Caution special or James Corden performance. I am hoping for a SNL performance on November 17th. Only time will tell what is going to happen on November 16th. Would MIAM had performed better if it was rolled out in the same way as Caution? (Saturday 27 October 2018; 16:27)

Re: Mariah in Manila (85,350) (85,355) by Bobby A from United States I noticed that as well. She is cutting the notes short on the four Caution tracks we have heard so far. (Saturday 27 October 2018; 16:10)

Re: A No No (85,314) (85,344) by Bobby A from United States This track is sick. MC ain't playing with Caution. I am telling everybody this is MC's Thiller y'all. Who ever is leaking the track - stop please. (Saturday 27 October 2018; 02:08)

Re: Caution album (85,337) (85,341) by Bobby A from United States I just hope no more tracks leak. I just saw the track listing on a blog website with only 10 songs. Four of them we have already heard. I want an element of surprise for the other 6 songs. Surely there will be a Target Exclusive with 5 extra songs since Barnes and Nobles booksellers has an exclusive blue vinyl. Target is where the Christmas CD sales will be during the last quarter of 2018. The track listing is killing me with anticipation. Lol. (Saturday 27 October 2018; 01:24)

Caution album (85,302) by Bobby A from United States How many of you think that Caution only having 10 tracks listed on Amazon and iTunes is a ploy to keep the tracklisting a secret until a week before November 16th? I just find it odd that other retailers are saying the tracklisting will be announced at a later date. MC must have some hot features and producers she doesn't want revealed until the very last week. More people do pre-orders on Amazon and iTunes than other retailers. It is going to be very interesting when the tracklisting comes out. What if there is a Jazmine Sullivan and Ryan Tedder collaboration or even Drake and Travis Scott? If so people will buy Caution like hot cakes. I am loving this Caution era. (Friday 26 October 2018; 03:56)

Re: Limited edition of Caution (85,229) (85,235) by Bobby A from United States The limited deluxe edition of Caution explains why there is a standard 10-track edition on Amazon listed for 7.99. The standard edition is for the general curious buying public while the limited deluxe edition with extra tracks will be for the Lambily. We probably won't get a Target Exclusive now since there is an limited deluxe edition. When the tracklisting is revealed, I think we all will be pleased. (Wednesday 24 October 2018; 03:07)

Caution World Tour (85,212) by Bobby A from United States What a surprise today. I can't wait for February. This has to be the best album rollout since TEOM. Three songs available to download before the album drops and a world tour annoucement. I think no one saw how this rollout was unwrapping when GTFO dropped in September. I can tell a lot of thought and planning took place for the Caution rollout. I am impressed with RocNation's and Melissa's rollout plan for Caution. I guess they learned from Anti's rollout. I am predicting Caution is going to sell a heck more than MIAM. Lol. (Tuesday 23 October 2018; 04:02)

Re: Caution album (85,125) (85,128) by Bobby A from United States Man, I am just joking about the tracklisting and needing it now. Loosen up. You say what you want to say on here. Don't you bro. And when you say it you sound so negative and mean. Don't take me too seriously on this forum. I have all of my compacities and then some. I would love to meet you one day. Thank you. (Saturday 20 October 2018; 00:58)

Caution album (85,118) by Bobby A from United States I want the full tracklisting like right now. Why is she waiting so long to release the full tracklisting if there are only 10 songs on the album? Unless she has some more surprises in store like a Target Exclusive Deluxe Edition. I would love for the Standard Edition to be 10 songs and Deluxe Edition to have 7 extra songs. (Friday 19 October 2018; 18:41)

Re: Distance - my theory (for laughs) (85,115) (85,117) by Bobby A from United States You are 100% right. That is why GTFO is track 1 and With You is track 2. The Distance is track 5. I am curious what is the subject of tracks 3 and 4. Maybe Stella? (Friday 19 October 2018; 18:36)

Re: Roc Nation (85,059) (85,067) by Bobby A from United States You are so right. Just a month ago, some us were so worried about the new era upon hearing GTFO. Two weeks ago, we became increasingly more worried about the direction MC was taking with MC15 when With You premiered. Well, Monday she released the album title and today we are singing praises for The Distance. I admit that I was worried too after hearing With You being positioned as the first single. But today I am not worried anymore. MC and her team showed us that we should worry no more. They have clearly showed us - we got this Lambs. You all just get your money ready for the 11/16. Caution, just join us for the ride. MC ain't playing this time with Caution. (Thursday 18 October 2018; 23:10)

Re: Pre-order surprise (85,040) (85,056) by Bobby A from United States I am loving the way her team is rolling out her new music leading up to the album release date. Let's recap how Caution is unfolding. 1. GTFO buzz single with video - September 14th 2. With You first single with AMAs performance and black white video same week - October 4th 3. Caution album release date - 11/16 - October 15th 4. Caution pre-order date - 11/18 with Spotify track download - The Distance ft. Ty Dolla $ign 5. Fan reaction in the wee hours of the morning was crazy. We didn't expect to hear another track from the album. She caught us off guard with that one. Well done, MC. Has anybody else rolled out an album in this way recently? I am predicting we will get an announcement that The Distance will be the second single and get tracklisting information the week of October 22nd. Radio is going to play The Distance for sure. FYI, MC is competing with Michael Buble's album Love on the 11/16. I know MC will beat Buble in sales. (Thursday 18 October 2018; 19:43)

Caution album (85,029) by Bobby A from United States Amazon is listing only 10 tracks on Caution. So, does that mean there will be a Deluxe Edition with more tracks? Surely, there has to be more than 10 tracks. I am hopeful for a Target Exclusive. (Thursday 18 October 2018; 10:38)

The Distance (85,022) by Bobby A from United States MC delivers another nice track featuring my man Ty Dolla Sign written with Lido, Skirellx, and Poo Bear. She ain't playing this time. The album is shaping up to be just what we have been asking for. I love the new direction her team is taking to promote the album. November 16th hurry up, please. (Thursday 18 October 2018; 08:22)

Re: Mariah and Busta (84,969) (84,980) by Bobby A from United States Thank you for posting. I have been looking for this YouTube video. (Wednesday 17 October 2018; 03:55)

Official album cover (84,958) by Bobby A from United States It is on her Twitter page. And it is hot. It is such a attention grabber. I can't wait to see the insert. (Tuesday 16 October 2018; 19:19)
