iTunes (109,108) by Jamie from UK It's on there, I've purchased it (Friday 6 June 2025; 14:51) this is a reply to message 109,107

iTunes (109,107) by Tameka walker from United states Someone needs to let Mariah Carey team know what is going on so the problem can be corrected. I would like to purchase a copy of the new single to support her. (Friday 6 June 2025; 14:39)

iTunes (109,104) by Jamie from UK You mean it's not there to purchase or on the chart? (Friday 6 June 2025; 14:28) this is a reply to message 109,103

iTunes (109,103) by Bobby A from United States It is still not showing up. The label made a mistake and sent it to iTunes as an album. Hopefully, they will get it corrected soon. (Friday 6 June 2025; 14:03)

iTunes (109,082) by Tameka walker from United states Where is Mariah on iTunes? (Friday 6 June 2025; 07:51)

Type Dangerous (109,086) by Jamie from UK Yes I agree. (Friday 6 June 2025; 10:00) this is a reply to message 109,079

Type Dangerous (109,079) by Shezz from Pk Ok I ain't mad. I quite like it. Still processing but initial reaction was very very positive - unlike all the other singles she's released over the years. The lyric video helped me get more into it. I think it's her best lead single in a long ass while. Mariah - get behind it and give it your all. I hope a proper video is coming soon. I feel like they haven't shot it yet. This is going to be the [It's like that] of [MC16]. The punchy re introduction to get the attention and then she'll knock us down with the WBT of this era. It's not gold but hor the first time in a long time, not disappointed MC. (Friday 6 June 2025; 06:42)

Type: worth the wait (109,085) by Jamie from UK It's a banger. (Friday 6 June 2025; 09:43)

Type: Impatient (109,048) by Jamie from UK Why does time go slower when we're waiting for new Mariah music? Not long to go now but feels like forever. Looking forward to hearing it fully for the first time and also hearing everyone's take on it tomorrow. Mariah is really treating us this past month with a mini anniversary release, now an unexpected MC16 and also a Walter produced song, I can't believe I actually just wrote a Walter produced song after all this time. I hope if they met again they were able to bury any past issues and move forward as life is too short. (Thursday 5 June 2025; 16:12)

Financial terrorism (109,046) by Jamie from UK Sounds like another conspiracy theory to me. (Thursday 5 June 2025; 14:44) this is a reply to message 109,044

Financial terrorism (109,044) by Lambi from USA Thank you, darling - I truly appreciate your response. I do try to stay aware of what's happening. I'm not trying to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but I genuinely believe Morgan is a plant, and we should be cautious. He's shown time and again that he'll do just about anything for a quick payout. Mariah is at a stage in her career where her success is not only undeniable - it's powerful. She confirmed a couple of years ago that she owns all of her masters: 86 singles and 15 studio albums, dating back to 1990. That level of ownership is incredibly rare, especially for someone who's not just the voice, but also the writer and producer. She's earning real revenue from her catalog, and that kind of power makes her a threat to certain people. We've seen a similar pattern before. When Michael Jackson began acquiring ownership of his music - and even the rights to other artists' catalogs - it triggered serious pushback from powerful forces. It wasn't subtle, and it wasn't fair. I wouldn't be surprised if Mariah ends up facing similar tactics. It's something we should all be paying close attention to. (Thursday 5 June 2025; 13:41)

Type: Dangerous (109,045) by Jamie from UK Phew lol. (Thursday 5 June 2025; 14:42) this is a reply to message 109,043

Type: Dangerous (109,043) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Ok so we have an update haha. Mariah Alerts posted that the snippets released are indeed teaser videos and not the music video. Thank God haha. (Thursday 5 June 2025; 13:30)

Type: Dangerous (109,038) by Jamie from UK Haha yes I thought so too. Those shorts are a no no. But let’s hope there is a better video. (Thursday 5 June 2025; 09:57) this is a reply to message 109,032

Type: Dangerous (109,032) by jaker20 from US That video preview is giving I Don't 2.0 budget, no real story concept and Mariah touching herself. So I hope the music is at least a bop. I miss the Mariah's video collabs with Brett Ratner. (Wednesday 4 June 2025; 22:09)

Good sound (109,022) by Jamie from UK Loving the sound of it already, sounds like a good vibe of song. (Wednesday 4 June 2025; 16:38)

MC16 (109,018) by Jamie from UK Yes I'm also just looking forward to the music. By the looks of her social media she is doing everything right this time to potentially have a hit, but like you say it's important to just focus on enjoying the music and not having any over expectations (Wednesday 4 June 2025; 13:03) this is a reply to message 109,012

MC16 (109,012) by Edward from USA Just a suggestion: when MC16 drops, try to focus on enjoying the music instead of worrying about #1's or chart positions. That way, you're not setting yourself up to be disappointed. Mariah's already done it all, she's a legend, and legends don't have anything to prove. The music scene isn't what it used to be, and chart success doesn't always reflect how good a song actually is. This new album might not have a massive hit, but that doesn't mean it won't have songs with hit potential. Some of her best work has never been on the radio. So let's just enjoy it for what it is. I see MC16 as an unexpected gift. Whether or not it tops the charts, we're lucky to be getting new music from her. Let's enjoy the ride. (Wednesday 4 June 2025; 01:51)

MC16 (108,989) by Jamie from UK Haha. (Tuesday 3 June 2025; 10:11) this is a reply to message 108,986

MC16 (108,986) by Stacey from USA I said MC16 was never going to happen. Crow is for dinner tonight. Bring your favorite side dishes. (Tuesday 3 June 2025; 08:36)

MC16 (108,957) by Jamie from UK Looks like MC16 is on its way? (Monday 2 June 2025; 16:17)

Music Box vs Daydream (108,956) by Jamie from UK Wow, you're a very angry person. (Monday 2 June 2025; 16:16) this is a reply to message 108,954

Music Box vs Daydream (108,954) by Lambi from USA Let's do a rerun: You: Alcoholism is why. *Beyonce debunks it* You: MC MB M Christmas the only formidable *Asian women who wins contests annually debunk by a landslide* You: you have another account don't you. [censored] LMAO It's so sad to see you unravel like this. Perhaps the yellow school bus didn't go up to mines because it was stuck at yours. (Monday 2 June 2025; 13:29)

Nasty, nasty comment (108,942) by Jamie from UK I also agree that the whisper voice she adopted contributed to damaging her voice. Not singing how she was meant to might have put strain on her voice. As said previously I think she chose to sing in this way, is it possible in the earlier later years that she forgot how to sing? We heard a return to power voice during [Glitter] but then sling came [Charmbracelet], I don't mind the album but her voice is annoying at times with the whisper and I just think to myself "just sing properly". (Sunday 1 June 2025; 16:21) this is a reply to message 108,939

Nasty, nasty comment (108,939) by TJ from Norway I don't know if I got your message right, so I wouldn't comment on that one, but some people do have a different sound after some years in the business, and other doesn't. If it is because of alcohol or not, I can't say. I know a few opera singers and they both drink and sing (concerts almost every day) with no problem combining that with drinking. I guess we in the Northern Europe drink so much that any American would say we were raging alcoholics, but still keep singing. Whitney and Dionne Warwick both sounded different from their debut and later in their careers. If that's because of drugs, I don't know. I think Mariah for some years was pushing her voice over a long period of time (1991-1996) and that combined with the whispering voice (really hurt your voice). If you listen to her singing after her debut, her voice was much lover when she sang live than in her recordings. Anyway alcohol or not, we'll never get that sound again. I think I will be playing some Vision of Love today. And maybe some If it's Over. (Sunday 1 June 2025; 11:51)

Happy anniversary (108,931) by Jamie from UK Nope, Music Box is my favourite. (Saturday 31 May 2025; 21:52) this is a reply to message 108,919

Happy anniversary (108,919) by TJ from Norway Am I the only one who likes Music Box better than Daydream? (Saturday 31 May 2025; 10:33)

Say Somethin Solange remix (108,907) by Jamie from UK I love the It's Like That Essentrik Remix. Just done a bike ride with Emancipation playing. (Friday 30 May 2025; 18:26) this is a reply to message 108,902

Say Somethin Solange remix (108,902) by Bobby A from United States Terna, your MC and Solange collaboration has come to fruition. Shezz, you made of aware first about Nostradamus' X post last year. The remix hits at a different level for MC. It is so Solange. It was released last night at midnight for the TEOM 20th anniversary. Can you imagine how MC and Solange would sound together on a new song with Solange's production style? (Friday 30 May 2025; 12:48)

Mariah Carey had 50-11 nose jobs but still insecure about "bad side"? (108,903) by Jamie from UK Do you think alcoholism is one of Mariah's issues? I know she likes a drink but never looked at it this way before. It would make sense that this is her vice and what's damaged her vocals. When I think of younger Mariah, she was so much more happier, even though she says she wasn't. You can see it on her face and hear it in both her speaking and singing voice. I just listened to Daydream from Tokyo Dome, I love when she says "thank you guys" to the fabulous four and saying "they are having church up in here" at the end of Hero. She sounds so humble and sweet, and just generally happier, a complete contrast to her personality now. I think Mariah wanted to change herself because she didn't want to be this sweet and grounded person she wanted to be more edgy, which I get, hey we would all like to be different at times but I honestly believe that's who she really is deep down and wanting to change has only led to more problems for her down the line. It's like Tommy said no one was forcing her to write those songs or be the person she was. I believe when you loose sight of who you really are and portray a different image it can only do harm to yourself. Mariah can live her life however she chooses it's not down to anyone else, that is just my gut feeling about her. (Friday 30 May 2025; 15:38) this is a reply to message 108,899

Mariah Carey had 50-11 nose jobs but still insecure about "bad side"? (108,899) by Bill from the UK I'm surprised more people don't notice the difference from Merry Christmas to Daydream vocally. Most sight Butterfly as when he voice began to decline and change, but for me Daydream was the beginning of the end. It was just masked by good songs, good production, and confidence on the stage when performing. Main call-outs for you all to review is that her melisma became disjointed, most noticeable on songs like I Am Free. She breaks it up rather than just singing straight through the melody like she did on all her albums beforehand. Then all the body from her voice went too, best displayed by When I Saw You and Long Ago. She still sounds great but there was a very noticeable shift at this point. As this was before her alcoholism then the nose job would be the most likely cause for the change. (Friday 30 May 2025; 08:28)

Mariah Carey had 50-11 nose jobs but still insecure about "bad side"? (108,900) by Jamie from UK Yes it was clear and strong but it had changed from her earlier voice, it’s clear to tell. (Friday 30 May 2025; 09:36) this is a reply to message 108,897

Mariah Carey had 50-11 nose jobs but still insecure about "bad side"? (108,897) by Bobby A from United States How could it be? MC's voice in 1995 was clear and strong. The Fantasy intro whistle is her best whistle note ever. Melt Away is pure bliss to one's ear. I just wonder now does MC has any regrets about any cosmetic surgery that she had done. I feel we will see a more open and forthcoming MC this Christmas season about a lot of things she been through since Caution's release. Some network is going to offer her a huge figure for a sitdown tell all interview this Christmas season. (Friday 30 May 2025; 02:52)

Mariah Carey had 50-11 nose jobs but still insecure about "bad side"? (108,894) by Jamie from UK Yes I remember reading somewhere years ago that Tommy bought her first boob job for her. How true that is I'm not sure. Sometimes I feel Mariah chose to sing differently from Daydream and that also affected the quality of her voice. But I defo agree the nose surgery didn't help. (Thursday 29 May 2025; 21:21) this is a reply to message 108,893

Mariah Carey had 50-11 nose jobs but still insecure about "bad side"? (108,893) by Bill from the UK Mariah came to terms with her (non-existent) bad side years ago and has said as such in her interview. It is pretty clear and obvious she has had a small nose job, and a large breast job, since 1990. The nose job is incredibly subtle but clearly impacted her voice and happened during 1995. It is obvious as it was the first major change in her voice, that became more nasally and brassy on Daydream, and lost its body. That I chalk up to the nose job. The most noticeable breast augmentation was in 1999 when Rainbow launched, but there was talk of a smaller one in 1994, but not so sure about that. (Thursday 29 May 2025; 14:20)

Eternal 12 (108,888) by Jamie from UK She's definitely had a few nose jobs which has altered her face from what it was, I preferred it before. It wasn't even big before now it's too small. I've had a couple of nose jobs so I'm not against surgery but a tweak that she had during Daydream was all that was needed for Mariah, now it's far too small. If you search Mariah nose before and after you can see the huge changes over the years. The tip had got progressively smaller. I was always under the impression as a singer you should never have a nose job, but a lot do. Could this be why her voice changed during Daydream the same time her nose did. I think she kept that first nose job until Glitter then from there you can notice even more changes. (Thursday 29 May 2025; 01:44) this is a reply to message 108,880

Eternal 12 (108,880) by Zachariah from Croatia I don't see that she had plastic surgery. I mean, it is not visible like when people get that car face or those puffed lips or similar. (Tuesday 27 May 2025; 23:35)

Reset (108,877) by Jamie from UK Can we get back to talking about Mariah and not these silly conspiracy theories? The mafia, Charles Manson. I'm I really reading this crazy talk. She's in a bad place that's it, only Mariah can sort herself out. (Tuesday 27 May 2025; 17:51)

The return of the voice (108,834) by Jamie from UK Exactly, if people can't see something is seriously wrong then they are blinded. Do we get to the point where like Whitney people were walking out of concerts while she was straining on stage to be who she once was. And we all know what happened after that. Mariah will want to go on stage, she will want to be an artist and she will still crave to be adored, all stars are the same in that respect, but [you're] right, I'm mad at the people around her saying yes yes yes and not being honest with her. Now we've got this video for the Australian fans (which I'm yet to watch) which reports of bizarre answers and behaviour. Are we now unfortunately seeing her unravel in the public eye. (Friday 23 May 2025; 09:12) this is a reply to message 108,826

The return of the voice (108,826) by Edward from USA I'm not mad at Mariah. I'm mad at the people behind the sessions, those who probably could give her honest feedback, but conveniently go with the flow instead. Michael also surrounded himself with sycophants and leeches who clap until the show was no more. You might like the sessions, but if you can't see there's something very wrong going on, I don't know what to think. (Friday 23 May 2025; 04:20)

Show some humanity (108,833) by Jamie from UK We're not talking about how she wants to live, we're talking about her health decline and how as someone who's loved her for a long time are upset to see her like this. It is allowed, it's not hate, it's love for someone. (Friday 23 May 2025; 09:03) this is a reply to message 108,825

Show some humanity (108,825) by Manuel from Germany Dear people on this board, have you no heart? Honestly the negativity on this board is painful. Do any of you know what it's like to be her? It's waking up every day and remembering you're not allowed to just be. That if you sound tired, you're "washed up". If you're quiet or having fun with yourself, you're a "diva". If you gain weight, it's magnified - literally - with a lens. And now, if you're medicated [...] and are dealing with the loss of family members and the end of a relationship, you "had a stroke"? WTF? Being Mariah is having your voice - the very thing that saved you - become a measuring stick they beat you with. Your voice - your literal lifeline - being turned into a battlefield. Every note Mariah's ever sung has been dissected, including on this board. Praised, worshipped, mocked, measured. And when your voice is that good - the pressure to never slip is inhuman. I guess for her lip-syncing isn't lying. It's surviving. It's choosing to still show up when the heartbreak is louder than the applause. When she may rather feel like grieving. How many times has she stood in front of thousands of us while screaming inside? She's been singing through breakdowns, betrayals, miscarriages, racist industry BS, and a horrible childhood and youth before she was even famous. And yes, sometimes she shows up because she signed the paper, not because she is feeling it. But she goes on stage anyway, because she knows that somewhere you might be out there. Some kid like she once was, staring at the ceiling, praying to be loved. And if at this point her lipsync can keep that kid alive another night, she'll wear the diamonds and fake it. She doesn't do music, she is music. This isn't a job. It's not even a career. It's how she breathes. If you call yourself a lamb, you should know as much, because that's what drew you to her. And even when she tries to disappear, the music doesn't stop coming. This industry effed her over, again and again, pimped her pain, tried to own her. When you're a legend, they forget you're human. So quitting might look like freedom to you, but to her, that would feel like letting them win. Because that voice, even cracked, even lip-synced, even trembling is still her. And as long as she's got it, she'll use it how she chooses. Not for the charts. Not for the Grammys. Not for those greedy ones of you who see her as a product that is to remain Daydream Mariah forever. For her. And for the ones who still need it. And if you don't need it, leave. She is an artist. She knows that when she walks on that stage, somebody in that crowd remembers who they are, because they see her still fighting to be. She was never supposed to make it. A mixed-race girl with a broken home, bipolar disorder, and a five-octave range? Please. But here she is. Still here. Still selling out stadiums. Not because the industry let her. But because she refused to disappear. So have some humanity inside you and stop projecting your unresolved issues on her. Imagine yourselves in her position. When she is ready, she will speak her truth. Until then, enjoy what she has to offer now, or enjoy her legacy. It's all there. She is as real as it gets right now, medicated and all. That is her, a human being. And she is still showing up, looking like a goddess, selling out, going number one every year. Love to you all. (Friday 23 May 2025; 00:28)

She possibly had a stroke (108,817) by Jamie from UK Exactly, some people need to be honest with her, and not just one. As a collective they need to be honest. She's a shadow of even modern day Mariah. I'm concerned something isn't right either mentally or physically. And I think it's got to a level that there's no chance of improvement. I get it, to her she's loosing the one thing that she's known for and that must hurt big time. But putting things like this out is only gonna hurt her even more. I'm reading on line comments like "I love her tone", all these yassss people are not helping. This voice that's on the Mimi lounge is not good at all. I'm just being honest. If she was a new singer and you heard those vocals, nobody would listen. Just because it's Mariah doesn't mean we have to say it's good. I'm very sad to see her this way, I would never have wanted this for her, but there comes a time when you have to bow out, work out what's going on and spend time on yourself. Mariah has had a phenomenal career and that will always be there, but I think it's time to accept that and don't tarnish what you had. (Thursday 22 May 2025; 14:52) this is a reply to message 108,816

She possibly had a stroke (108,816) by Edward from USA It really breaks my heart to see her like that. What infuriates me though is the fact the sycophants around her don't have the balls to tell her that wasn't acceptable to put online. They're were probably saying: yass queen, you killed it. (Thursday 22 May 2025; 12:49)
