MTV Unplugged article (75,984) by Bill from the UK Great read, excusing the unnecessary profanity. Unplugged has always been my most favourite album of Mariah's. I play it every single day. (Saturday 3 June 2017; 00:22)

Re: Artists you love that may surprise others (75,970) (75,983) by Lee from UK In no particular order: Sara Bareilles Jason Mraz Michael Bublé Pentatonix Nathan Sykes Lucie Silvas Katie B James Morrison Daniel Merriweather The Fratellis Sam Tsui Straight no Chaser (Friday 2 June 2017; 23:21)

Mimi record contract in jeopardy (75,982) by RibbonB from USA New reports out on this. I hope it is not true, but she doesn't seem to be focusing on writing quality music so maybe it doesn't matter. (Friday 2 June 2017; 23:15)

Re: Artists you love that may surprise others (75,970) (75,981) by RibbonB from USA I love Alabama Shakes, Ledisi, Sade, Brenda Russell en Sting. My list is actually very long, but I listen to these on repeat in addition to my favorite Mimi music. (Friday 2 June 2017; 23:13)

Latest fabrication (75,980) by RibbonB from USA Radar is saying that M. only hooked up with Nick weeks ago in order to make the hired hand jealous. Per Shawn there was never a break, lol. And wasn't the original reason for the break/non break due to the hired hands jealousy of Nick etc. etc.? What a circular mess. The immature, jealousy revenge filled petty mess tabloud plants needs to stop. It is so unbecoming a rich, middle aged woman and mother of young kids. (Friday 2 June 2017; 22:49)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,977) (75,979) by RibbonB from USA Wow thanks I just read his IG page. I said earlier her old team sadly might be telling a similar story to MJ's bodyguards. The team that took over his life at the end were ruthless snakes who took over every aspect of his life and pushed. (Friday 2 June 2017; 22:33)

Re: Janet Netflix series (75,953) (75,978) by RibbonB from USA Ugh, I can't stand BFV or most reality shows, but I would welcome one with real insight into Janet's music, getting back in shape etc. MW was such a mess up with all the relationship focus and subsequent re writes and flip flops that they couldn't even keep up with themselves. The latest Mimi rumors are a push for a quickie wedding. At this point anything might happen. They seem to think it's a game where only they know the rules and make them up as they go along. I just hope the kids are in the good care at all times. (Friday 2 June 2017; 22:28)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,962) (75,977) by Manny from U.S. Eddie Morales, Mariah's ex backup dancer, posted a throwback of Mariah and him. He has vent about Stella before. This time he said Stella is just a reality star producer. He also made other comments referring to their team and tagged Rachael. I think he even said he wishes Mariah will wake up. I like how he feels no need to be a kiss ass to Stella and has integrity. It really makes you wonder what motivates Mariah now and why she chose this management. Who knows, maybe she falls into a pattern where her old teams end up being backstabbers somehow? And she feels the need to clean house. Thats my guess. (Friday 2 June 2017; 22:07)

Re: Artists you love that may surprise others (75,967) (75,976) by Matty from Vancouver Canada 1) Aerosmith 2) Janis Joplin 3) Tony Bennett 4) Latoya Jackson 5) Missy Elliott 6) JoJo - Get her new album MadLove. It's mind blowing. 7) Adam Lambert 8) Kylie Minogue 9) Duffy 10) Lana Del Ray (Friday 2 June 2017; 20:37)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,973) (75,975) by Licia from USA Exactly. That's why I want her to stop putting out these half baked singles. With the exception of a few songs, MIAM proves that she has so much more in her, but if her head is not in it right now then just stop. I don't want the music to stop, but I also don't want these children that she's trying to impress to believe that songs like Crapfinity are the best she has to offer. (Friday 2 June 2017; 20:32)

Re: Artists you love that may surprise others (75,972) (75,974) by Stacey from USA When folks ask me what type of music I'm into, I never know what to say. I can go from Aerosmith to Mariah to Rachmaninoff. I love music. I'm grateful technology has evolved to the point I can download a song and not have to buy the whole album. (Friday 2 June 2017; 20:25)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,958) (75,973) by Stacey from USA I thought about MIAM a lot when writing my last post. You're absolutely right, B. I won't ever count her out musically. I just believe music isn't her priority right now. (Friday 2 June 2017; 18:48)

Re: Artists you love that may surprise others (75,970) (75,972) by Licia from USA I love music and I'm pretty open to a lot of different types of music. I'm weird and there are a lot of artists people don't believe I listen to. Lol. 1.Aerosmith 2. Journey 3. the b-52s 4. the Beach boys 5. the Beatles 6. the Bee gees 7. Billy Ocean 8. Boy George 9. Garth Brookes 10. Reba McEntire 11. Dixie Chicks 12. Michael Mcdonald 13. Foreigner 14. George Michael 15. Grace Jones 16. Gwen Stefanie 17. Fergie 18. Hall & Oats 20. Justin Bieber (I know. I'm ashamed lol) 21. Jennifer Lopez ((I'm a traitor lol) 22. Joan Jett There's more I'm sure, but my list is too long. Lol. (Friday 2 June 2017; 17:29)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,966) (75,971) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I will definitely check it out once I get home. As for when Mariah said she talked about dying early with Michael, I think I vaguely remember it, if I'm not confusing it with something else. It's sad really, Mariah still has time to stop and take control of her life. Instead she chose to give control to some Oompa Loompa mess. This reminds me of that interview she did few years back where she talked about how she hated making decision and calling shots and telling people (her employees) what to do. (Friday 2 June 2017; 16:49)

Re: Artists you love that may surprise others (75,967) (75,970) by Lila from United States I love Ellie Golding's Joy and Jason Mraz's I'm Yours and Lucky, which features Colbie Callait whom's songs Bubbly, The Little Things, and Oxygen I love. 1) Alabama Shakes 2) Billy Joel 3) Corrine Bailey Rae 4) Fiona Apple 5) Steve Tyrell 6) Jimi Hendrix 7) Jessie Ware 8) Joe Cocker 9) Kenny Loggins 10) Leon Bridges 11) Seal 12) Shinedown 13) Keane 14) Tom Waits 15) Queen 16) Korn (Friday 2 June 2017; 16:23)

Re: Mariah needs to work with real artists again (75,965) (75,969) by Butterfly from I agree. There's only one way to recover. Leave Hollywood and live a low-key life. Go back home (NY). Stop drinking and take care of your voice and work on an album. I would say 2 years is a great time to recover an image and make an album. She did an amazing job pre TEOM. She was very low-key and worked on an album and her private life was stable. No nothing in the media about her private life. She came back with a humble attitude and a great album. Amazing team. TEOM's success is never going to happen but I can see another semi-comeback with a great attitude and music. (Friday 2 June 2017; 14:56)

Re: Artists you love that may surprise others (75,967) (75,968) by Merr Hasenan from Malaysia Belinda Carlisle for me. Maybe we can consider her as a diva too but her music is different than our queen M. I listen a lot to Roxette's music lately. MC early works, BC and Roxette are the sound that I miss so much from the 90s. Of course, the rest of the original divas. (Friday 2 June 2017; 14:25)

Artists you love that may surprise others (75,967) by this_is_qhm from the Philippines Okay, this board has been under quite a dark cloud since Martyn's passing. May he rest in peace. So to lighten things up a bit, it's sharing time once again. It's a given that we all love Mariah, and it probably follows that we also love her diva contemporaries. But we also follow artists that aren't necessarily like them that may seem random or come as a surprise to others. Mine are: Jason Mraz Neon Trees Hiroshima Tove Lo DNCE Joao Gilberto Lily Allen John Mayer The Cardigans Hall & Oates D'Sound Ellie Goulding Cher Lloyd Michael Franks The bird and the bee Mandy Moore Amerie Michael Learns To Rock Sophie Ellis-Bextor Kimbra Carly Rae Jepsen Swing Out Sister Color Me Badd Seth MacFarlane The Carpenters What are yours?

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,962) (75,966) by 123 from USA Hi Mimi L. Michael was killed by AEG for the insurance money. He only agreed to 10 shows but they booked him for 50 behind his back. The president of AEG, Michael's old manager who was fired in March of 09 because he didn't trust him and kept him from the outside world, who magically appeared on he day of his death to "speak on Michael's behalf". He was added to the insurance policy the day before his death. Dr Murray, whose job was to keep feeding Michael's addictions and reduce his health, the old Sony manager who magically "resurfaced" right before his death. That's why Latoya said in an interview that Dr Murray was just the fall guy that there were other involved. Do you remember the interview where Mariah said her and Michael had a conversation about dying before their time because many famous stars do, it's sad. You should watch the video I posted. It shows all the emails from AEG that got leaked, contracts and insurance polices, false testimonies that don't line up with the actual time line (they all admit they knew he wasn't breathing as they all called each other around 10:30am, but an ambulance wasn't called until 12:22pm once he was good and dead unfortunately). That's why Michael's mom sued AEG. (Friday 2 June 2017; 13:47)

Mariah needs to work with real artists again (75,965) by T from USA She needs to go away. Rent a cottage for a summer like Beyonce did and live with real artists and write songs for two months. Jazmine Sullivan, Solange Knowles, Frank Ocean. She needs to reconnect with her artistry. Can you imagine the songs she would produce if she hung out with real artists? The business will take care of itself if she just comes back with real songs. She should leave the reality tv producers and business people behind while creating an album. Their opinions won't help the process. Unfortunately this won't happen but one could wish. (Friday 2 June 2017; 13:25)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,960) (75,964) by B from USA Hopefully, sooner than later. Stella reminds me of a female Howard K Stern. Howard was Anna Nicole's lawyer/lover/manager who exploited her for fame and money. (Friday 2 June 2017; 12:24)

Mariah (75,963) by B from USA Mariah please hire a stylist. Please. (Friday 2 June 2017; 12:20)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,952) (75,962) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter The only thing that hurts even more than knowing that such a brilliant and kind artist has passed away way before his time is that he was taken by a group of hungry leeches, who used, abused and then killed him for their own benefit. Michael was used by everyone around him basically, family, "friends" and business associates. (Friday 2 June 2017; 12:18)

Re: I was born at night, not last night (75,958) (75,960) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I honestly don't understand how Mariah doesn't see what a bag full of incompetence this Stella is. I mean let's even put aside the fact that Stella has zero knowledge about the music industry and management. Let's look at Stella's main field - reality TV. She got Mariah on it, and failed even there. The show was a complete and utter mess, which did Mariah no favors. Stella is using her opportunity to get herself involved in as many partnerships as possible with Mariah to make sure she can milk it even if she gets fired. Wonder when Mariah will realize that Stella only brought Mariah down only to upgrade the Bulochnikovs status. (Friday 2 June 2017; 12:15)
