About T from USA :

Re: AIWFCIY, 19th #1 (91,411) (91,423) by T from USA You have to buy the song on the peak week from iTunes starting December 20th. Also pre-order the physical single on Amazon or her website. That will really be helping the song go to number 1. Plus stream on the week of December 20th. Spotify and YouTube. Maybe even call a few of your local radio stations that week to request the song. It’s going to take an effort on all those fronts to achieve the almost impossible. (Thursday 21 November 2019; 13:55)

Next album: Gospel Jazz Soul (91,417) by T from USA I hope she takes a real live musical route with her next album. Songs in the vein of The Wind, Vanishing, My Saving Grace and Fly Like A Bird. I think she should produce the whole album by herself and show everyone how far her talents go. Keep it to eleven songs to mirror her debut and simply call the album "Mariah". The Grammys and the industry as a whole would die. I loved "Caution" but I don't want anything current of the moment from her next. Forget charts or sales. It's probably her last album on her contract anyway. I want something so timeless. Something so organic. Something so different than her other albums but still so true to who she is as an artist.

Mariah and Celine, All I Want For Christmas (89,015) by T from USA If they did do a song together everybody would undoubtedly compare it to their former work or even the duet between Mariah and Whitney. So I'm thinking to not do an original song at all, unless it's an original Christmas song. People have more mercy on Christmas songs and they are both very famous for their holiday material. They could cover a Christmas song or even better yet, duet on AIWFCIY. I mean if she did it with Bieber. Get that 19th #1 Mimi. (Friday 5 April 2019; 14:43)

Celine, Mariah, the voices (88,990) by T from USA It would be great. For the Record books. And if it is to happen it better happen before Celine duets with another certain somebody. (Thursday 4 April 2019; 14:29)

Mariah shades A No No remix (88,728) by T from USA I traveled all the way to the Toronto show last night and it was well worth it the moment she shaded the "remix" by starting the Fantasy remix with saying how to her, remixes are supposed to be redone in creative new ways. Then she gave a big sassy Mariah smile and the fans went crazy. It was a moment. (I think it was a shot at Epic and/or Roc Nation.) (Thursday 21 March 2019; 13:15)

40 million on YouTube views for Caution (88,656) by T from USA I hope she can get 40 million views with Caution album on YouTube. It would be pretty respectable if after the era ends (by the end of the world tour) if she has these stats: - GTFO music video: 10 million - With You music video: 10 million - A No No music video: 10 million - A No No audio video: 2 million - A No No lyric video: 1 million - Caution audio video: 1 million - The Distance lyric video: 1 million - Giving Me Life audio video: 1 million - One Mo' Gen audio video: 1 million - 8th Grade audio video: 1 million - Stay Long Love audio video: 1 million - Portrait audio video: 1 million A few of these goals she's already reached, the others are very close. Right now she sits at around 25 million views for Caution. (Sunday 17 March 2019; 14:26)

The video (88,393) by T from USA It's okay. I like how it doesn't try to beat us over the head with subtext from the lyrics. I liked that she actually had background extras in a video. When was the last time that happened? It's Like That, We Belong Together. After that it was all solo videos or just one extra person, plus a featured artist if there was ever any. But historically Mariah never had background extras in the 1990's either. Heartbreaker being the exception. (Friday 8 March 2019; 15:21)

A No No feat. Stefflon Don (88,357) by T from USA It's been confirmed that the remix features Stefflon Don. Looks like MC doesn't have the pull she once used to. She was looking for Kim and Cardi and couldn't even end up with Missy. Shame. (Thursday 7 March 2019; 14:48)

The singles this era (88,317) by T from USA When they released GTFO with the video on Thursday September 14th, they should've released the first single the very next day "A No No" Friday September 15th. Had a Kim & Cardi remix ready to go and debut it at the American Music Awards on October 8th. "The Distance" as a single on Friday November 16th to coincide with the album release and the Tonight Show performance. A video to follow by the end of November. "With You" in late January to build for Valentine's Day and the tour. That's it. Three official singles, one remix and one buzz song. That's all they needed to do. They had the promotion lined up they just didn't execute. (Tuesday 5 March 2019; 23:56)

No A No No (88,316) by T from USA So apparently A No No has been pulled. No word yet if they will eventually send it for adds or not. But as of now the whole thing is cancelled. I just hope it's not because of the fact that the first single didn't make the Hot 100 chart. It seems Mariah is super aware of her successes and failures, and I hope she's not jumping ship just because the songs haven't been connecting as of yet. Or else maybe all those female rappers backed out and it really messed things up. We probably will never know. Here's hoping a Shrillex remix of the Distance featuring Justin Beiber could be made. (Tuesday 5 March 2019; 23:16)

Caution world tour set list (88,260) by T from USA I hope the set stays the same for the whole tour. It's perfect the way it is. (Saturday 2 March 2019; 17:15)

Re: A No No alert (88,255) (88,259) by T from USA I hope so. It does seem like there is something they are hiding. Otherwise just release the album version. Don't be surprised if the album version is released then followed by the remix closer to the summer. (Saturday 2 March 2019; 17:14)

A No No over (88,159) by T from USA Some D-list rapper posted an instagram story in the studio saying they are on the A No No remix. It's another YG (I Don't) moment unfortunately. I would much rather just the album version at this point. Why Mariah? Has your stock fallen this low? Serious thought: I really hope this is the last album/era that she's marketed in the vein of Beyonce. She needs to start going down the Adult Contemporary route. I mean she will be 49 soon, then 50. Time to work with real musicians and make real music again, while you still have your voice. (Friday 22 February 2019; 15:41)

A No Cardi no (88,146) by T from USA Does anyone else find the no Cardi remix weird? I mean she said on an interview posted December 20th that she doesn't have time to do it, but that interview was made a week before that and now we are at the end of February and you're telling me she couldn't mailed in one verse? (Thursday 21 February 2019; 21:11)

Andrew gone (87,335) by T from USA Do you think there is a correlation between Mariah's amazing positive year and Andrew's decline in posting and subsequent departure? Mariah is flawless right now. (Monday 31 December 2018; 17:53)

Re: Mariah / Walter (87,198) (87,199) by T from USA They had set up a meeting to meet in 2013 but it fell through. Why? Now that is a question I would like these "journalists" to ask Walter. I sometimes think part of her (the ego part) would be ashamed to show him her actual range now. Remember the things he heard from her in 1990-1997. But also of course she doesn't want to look back. (Although she does it with JD, but maybe Walter is more of a one trick pony. Still I'd take another go with that one trick.) (Saturday 22 December 2018; 22:13)

Official download day (86,948) by T from USA There are two days floating around as an official Download Day for AIWFCIY: Friday December 14th or Friday December 21st. Once we get a concrete day we can all do #glitter moment for the song to try and push it to the top. (Saturday 8 December 2018; 14:54)

Mark Ronson (86,692) by T from USA My only wish with Caution is that Mariah also worked with Mark Ronson. What he did with that Miley Cyrus song is nothing short of amazing. The title of it fits Mariah and Caution so much too. Ronson and Blood Orange on one album. (Friday 30 November 2018; 14:17)

Mariah at New Years festivities (86,316) by T from USA Does everyone realize that new years eve is on a Thursday night this year. So if she is planning to return to the stage one more time at times square to debut A No No feat. Cardi B and Lil Kim it will be available to download right at the beginning of Friday morning and if there is a video ready to go we could be looking at a #1 debut the first week of January. (Tuesday 20 November 2018; 21:08)

Sales (86,289) by T from USA The sales projections were raised from early projections by 3k. They are reporting that it could end up on the high end of 55,000. Here's a reminder to keep streaming this week. We are doing it and if it can surprise the whole industry and get to 60,000 in its first week it will be a huge success. It could even mean more promotion and a longer era. So keep buying, keep streaming it will make a difference. (Tuesday 20 November 2018; 15:21)

Re: A No No feat. Cardi B and Li'l Kim (86,286) (86,288) by T from USA Mariah has made a return to form with her new album Caution. It literally is everything. But a return to her exciting remixes (with Carid and Kim) would be the icing on the cake. Make it happen. (Tuesday 20 November 2018; 15:18)

Amazon sales (86,189) by T from USA Hey everyone. To improve the SEO for caution on Amazon and iTunes, make sure to post your reviews. I just reviewed on Amazon and the album has a total of 6 reviews now. We can do better. Reviews make a huge difference. And the Amazon algorithms pay close attention to how fast those reviews come in, since it indicates excitement for the new product. (I’m an author and do a lot of this for my books.) Please post your reviews. (Sunday 18 November 2018; 17:53)

Buy and stream, stream and buy (86,188) by T from USA Guys I don't want to sound like a broken record but we gotta buy more of this album and stream the crap out of it. If it fails to even reach 50,000 first week I'm afraid the label will abandon this project and Mariah herself may never mention it again. She is very sales driven and after the cycle it will end up being the latest Glitter, Charmbracelet, MIAMTEC. Lets do more for the first week so we can look forward to some more weeks. (Sunday 18 November 2018; 17:33)

Post for Mariah (86,154) by T from USA I hope everyone has posted a pic with their review of Caution on their Facebook/Instagram/Twitter. Mariah needs some help on the promo front. She's doing a lot on her own but if we can somehow get the word out with her it just might help sell more copies in the first week. Might help with better streaming. Now's the time to do it. (Saturday 17 November 2018; 23:58)

Caution hashtag (86,119) by T from USA When hasthtaging on twitter we should all come up with the same one so it starts getting attention. I like #CautionSpirit as I think it's one Mariah would pick up on and use. Simple #Caution works as well. Just noticed MTV and a lot of other media sources are using the hasthtag #MariahCaution.
