About Stacey from USA:
Been a fan since 1993. Favorite albums include Daydream, TEOM, and Music Box. I love a good discussion, but won't stand for hateful comments because we disagree. I am too old to deal with drama and so are you. Keep it real with me and we'll have some fun. Peace.

MC16 wish list (109,005)
by Randy from USA
| |
|
|
Well, I know it ain't gonna happen but since I have a little extra time. I'd like an Adele-like album. No rap. No r&b. No vocal layering. No wall of background singers. Just her and piano or her and guitar. Some love songs mixed in with some hope songs mixed in with some introspective songs. Imagine a quiet album with songs as stripped down as Languishing, Close My Eyes, My All, With You, Camouflage, Vanishing, Music Box, Looking In, Reflections, Petals, Cry, Portrait. And for the voice. Maybe keep it down to what can be replicated live even if the venue is too cold, too hot, missing an umbrella holder, short circuits ear monitors, has no running water for humidifiers, only let you in with less than 7 hours sleep. And only use the whistle twice. Yeah, that would be a dope album.

Type: Dangerous (109,004)
by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
| |
|
|
Title confirmed with MC's new post. I'm glad she didn't have a breakdown that we figured out the title and scrap the project hahah. I'm intrigued. I know Mariah takes risks in her music but I never associate the word "dangerous" with Mariah but I'm here for it.

Some people seriously need to get off their high horse. Bill is an appreciated member of this board. When he stepped away for a while, a lot of us genuinely missed him.
A bunch of us have been here for over a decade. We've supported Mariah through her ups and downs, bought the music, defended her when it counted, and yes, we've also kept it real when needed. We've seen plenty of people come and go, showing up with loud opinions and disappearing just as fast. Some may not like what Bill said, but no one here gets to question his or anyone else's place fandom.
If for some of you the idea of being a fan means clapping for everything and pretending everything's perfect all the time, that's not what this board is about. And if hearing a different opinion is too much for you, you might want to grab a helmet, it's 2025.
I've said it before: one of the reasons this board has lasted over 20 years is because it's always allowed for different opinions. Not just blind praise, but real talk too. That's what keeps it interesting. Every time this place turns into an echo chamber, it just dies out.
And yeah, sometimes we get frustrated and show a little tough love. But that's only because we know what Mariah is capable of. That doesn't mean we don't love her or support her any less.
I actually appreciate reading different opinions, even ones I don't agree with. That back and forth is what makes this board work. It's not a fan club where everyone's forced to say the same thing.
Bill, you've been part of this board for years, and most of us really value what you bring. Don't even think about disappearing.

Mimi L. did she say this Friday we’d know more about MC16 era or the single was going to be released? I think this Friday might just be the announcement - she needs to build the hype a bit. "Eric B. is president" must be sampled in the single as per the teaser. Where did you hear the "Type: Dangerous" bit?

Well well MC once again reminding us we can never count her out. I had given up hope for a new album but Mariah didn't let RA down. Excited to hear the single this Friday. I hope it's as epic as the teaser. Apparently the single or album is called Type: Dangerous. Which is intriguing. It's also what's show on her car monitor T:D MC16.

Music Box vs Daydream (108,962)
by Stacey from USA
| |
|
|
Yeah, no kidding. I became a fan during the MB era. Once I heard Hero, the rest they say is history. Daydream is my favorite album because it represents all what makes Mariah amazing - r&b and pop mixed to perfection. There is such a depth to her voice. But make no mistake, Daydream doesn't happen without MB, Emotions, and the debut. I am forever grateful I've got so many priceless songs to listen to.

Beautiful post. I also want a happy vibrant lively Mariah back. Where's the rainbow's end? I also wish Mariah would get a new team behind her, people who know business but also care for her as a human being and not just for money and fame. Real friends and people who do care are more important than all the money in the world and fake snakes who say yes to everything.

Exactly. Well said, Randy. And for the record, I ain't no "yass queen". Not saying anyone is calling me that. Just stating that fact out loud. Yeah, was she stiff? Yes. Would I love her to move around, enjoying the moment? Yes. At the same time, I applaud the effort. I loved the arrangements. I loved seeing lesser known songs like Circles and Your Girl getting shown the spotlight.

I don't get it. This is MCs voice. It's what it has been for a very long time without all the background tracks, background singers and music. There's no slurring, stroke or sycophants letting her do whatever. I was thrilled yesterday because it was finally unvarnished truth. It was honesty. I mean besides the lashes and hair. And she didn't sound bad. I'm really upset at y'all response because basically it means you would rather have the lies and deceit. Maybe Special K was right. No matter what she does she can't win. I hate that we live in a world where whatever choice you make you'll find harsh criticism.

Are you referring to the Mimi Sessions video? This might be only time I've disagreed with you, lol. I liked it. I thought her voice sounded great. The rich lower tones are where she should stay put. I do agree she looks stiff but didn't notice the slurred speech.

Well, I saw Tucker Wetmore perform on Jimmy Kimmel this month. I am so impressed with his great vocals and rapid singing style especially on his song Brunette that I am making Tucker Wetmore my favorite artist now. This is at least until MC16 is released. MC is just number #2 now. Lol. Tucker is the real deal with his catchy country songs that have made for a brilliant debut and changed country radio in 2025.

Daydream (108,658)
by MusicfanJ from Germany
| |
|

It's an interesting thought. Who really knows what was going on behind "closed doors"? I do believe Tommy wasn't so hapyy with Daydream (Fantasy, remix with Da Brat, the house remix "Daydream interlude" on the album and of course "Looking in"). But because of the extreme commercial success around the world (Daydream went to number one in almost every country) plus the records from the US charts, he must be pleased at last. The Grammy would have been the cherry on the cake at that time.

I hear what you're saying. I just can't help but think Tommy wanted her to lose more than winning would have benefit him. Daydream definitely has an R&B sound to it, even the ballads.

But Daydream was a pop album with just a grain of R&B on two tracks. Tommy had a lot at stake, Mariah's win would've been his too.

I can't help but wonder if Tommy played a role in getting MC shutout at the Grammys. She was pushing further into R&B, something TM despised. Daydream was a commercial success but maybe Tommy orchestrated the shutout at such a high profile event to "shut up" Mariah and push her back to pop/adult contemporary.

I still don't understand how the Daydream Grammy debacle was happening? Tommy was still behind her at the peak of the success, was it simply the envy? Céline also married a powerful man from the music business. I always think Mariah was too perfect for some people. The look (a beauty like a supermodel), her magical aura, her earned wealth, the Mariah mania around the globe during that time, chart breaking records and last but not least of course the best, most unique voice ever. The "Cinderella story" from the press must have caused envy without end.

You all are missing out on the best version of Fantasy. It is the Bad Boy Mix which I think is track 4 on the maxi-single. It has both the pop hook and ODB on it. It's the only one I listen to. I love Honey with Mase and The Lox. I hate the Jermaine Dupri remix. I love Gucci Mane on Obsessed. I love both The Roof extended Mobb Deep and Breakdown extended Bobe Thugs. I love the Nicki Minaj verse on Up Out My Face. My All/Stay Awhile with the rap is also a favorite.

Favorite Mariah Hip-Hop collaborations (108,481)
by BFF from United States
| |
|

I was talking to someone the other day about how I felt the ODB version of "Fantasy" is a bit overrated and played out. It's the one that everyone knows - I actually quite like the original version and the House remix more. Though I do appreciate the "Me and Mariah go back like babies and pacifiers" line. I use that one a lot. What do you all think? Favorite Mariah hip-hop collaborations/remixes? These would be my 10 favorites
1. My All/Stay Awhile (So So Def Remix) 2. The Roof (Mobb Deep Extended) 3. Breakdown (Mo Thugs Version) 4. Crybaby 5. Always Be My Baby (So So Def Remix) 6. Underneath the Stars (Drifting Remix) 7. I Still Believe/Pure Imagination 8. Honey (So So Def Remix) 9. Thank God I Found You (Make It Last Remix) 10. Heartbreaker (DJ Clue Remix)
I never really cared for "I Know What You Want" with Busta Rhymes. And I still feel like Mariah's golden period for these collaborations was that 1997-2000 period.

I like Music Box too. All I Ever Wanted is a very underrated ballad. I first heard Mariah on VH1 (when they actually played videos, lol,) with Hero. That song hooked me on MC and Daydream reeled me in. But MB will always hold a special place with me because of that experience.

Dear Stacey, you of all people should understand what happens when one is in a Daydream state of mind. I had the album playing and as I was typing my two favorites for TEOM, "When I Saw You" kicked in. Let’s just call it a "mental lapse", a "slip of the keyboard", or most likely, "a glitch in the matrix" . My guilty pleasure from TEOM is "To The Floor".
