What Virgin Records could have been for MC (110,242) by Jamie from UK Yes I agree, they should have given her more of a chance, but I think it was more to do with the negative publicity around her breakdown etc. In those days it wasn't accepted to have any mental health struggles and you were written off.

What Virgin Records could have been for MC (110,237) by Bobby A from United States I was thinking today and wondering what MC's career with Virgin Records would have been like if they didn't buy out her 80 million dollars contract. The Virgin executives surely didn't support an established artist who had sold millions during the first ten years of her career. Just because her first album for the label didn't live up to their expectations, they decided to cut their losses and buy out her contract for 28 million dollars. Glitter was a soundtrack and not a regular album. They could have given her some grace and allowed MC to record a non soundtrack album. I am just thinking today about the "what if" with Virgin Records after 24 years. Virgin Records has other instances when they did support their artists when they were in a crisis or underperforming like Boy George, Janet Jackson, D'Angelo, and Aalyiah's family.

Update on Type Dangerous (110,241) by Jamie from UK The UK one is only sales and not the official chart which would be compared to the Hot 100. The official chart is the only one that counts here and I think it even charted on there unfortunately. (Thursday 31 July 2025; 10:06) this is a reply to message 110,233

New music (110,240) by Jamie from UK I often wonder has she had vocal surgery and this is the result of it. I was listening to I Don't a couple of days ago, and whilst it might not be some people's favourite (I like the song just the video is a no no for me), she's actually singing on it and sounds good, and that was only 2017. Something serious has happened in that time, either personal or vocal surgery gone wrong. (Thursday 31 July 2025; 09:04) this is a reply to message 110,228

New music (110,228) by ADAM from USA So I've read on here several times how some people are disappointed MC is a feature of her own song. While I normally would agree with that sentiment, I think [it's] actually for the best. The cold, hard truth we all can admit, is that her voice is gone. [It's] thin, shrill at times, and not rounded and smooth, [it's] damaged beyond repair her repair. While we could all speculate that vocal surgery could make it better, we really don't know and [it's] clear she doesn't take the risk. So I say all this to say, she creates music now where she can be a featured artist but have other people do the heavy lifting. No one is more aware of the bad state of her voice and limited feature on her own songs than her. She's said many times in the past, when she's not in good voice she is her own worst critic. So I conclude in 2025, to remain positive about her musical contributions, is to accept fate as we see it - she will frontload her music with featured artists, lip sync entirely, and use auto-tune [permanently] in the studio to piece together what's left of her voice.

Sugar Sweet (110,239) by Jamie from UK That's cool that she's been responding on X. Maybe that's why she doesn't look happy in the [Sugar Sweet] video, maybe she's realised it's not working. I'm not on X so I can't comment on what they have been saying, but it's nice she's interacting with them. (Thursday 31 July 2025; 08:59) this is a reply to message 110,231

Sugar Sweet (110,231) by Bobby A from United States I think so too. MJ's streaming numbers would be astronomically high today. You know I wouldn't be surprise if L.A. Reid and Larry Jackson suggest to MC to go into the studio with JD or another producer to record 2-3 more songs to get that hit single. They can manufacture CDs, cassettes and vinyl records within 30 days of HFIA's release. It may be best to record some more songs based upon how some Lambs are responding to MC this week. MC has been responding to some Lambs negative comments about TD and Sugar Sweet on X for the past two days. MC replied, "I love it" to one Lamb's comment about wanting a song with a strong beat. And it is not helping that Sugar Sweet is having very low radio spins today. I am hoping spins and streams pick up soon. (Wednesday 30 July 2025; 22:42)

Sugar Sweet video clip (110,238) by Jamie from UK So Mariah has shown a clip of the new [Sugar Sweet] video. What you guys think? She loves a stairway I'll give her that, remember I Don't. I love the ensemble, she looks really nice. I just wish her face would show it too, she looks miserable, she looked happier in the kitchen clip she did. There's a part in the video where her eyes go to the left like she's looking for direction, it's a poor edit if that's gonna be in the final video. She looks nice, I just don't think it's going to rescue the song. (Thursday 31 July 2025; 08:55)

Wishful thinking (110,225) by Jamie from UK Yeah her voice for the majority it's good, it's just the higher bits that sounds off. (Wednesday 30 July 2025; 18:15) this is a reply to message 110,221

Wishful thinking (110,221) by Dove from United States I don't know. We need a viral moment. She should hire Roseanne to write some skits for her social media. Also, Sugar Sweet needs to be re-sung just by herself. There needs to be a remix with a harder beat that will bump in the car. Or maybe a strong bass guitar riff. I'm sorry but her voice sounds frail and thin and it's not pleasant to listen to. I know she can sound better.. We need to up the humidifiers or something. (No shade because even at her worst she sounds better than I did at my best.) Her voice sounds better on Type: Dangerous. But SS is a good song too. It just needs work IMO. For the video she should just hire people for it. Or put it in a scary movie. Like, the movie can start all nice and carefree with this song before the scary stuff happens. I don't think Taylor Swift was in the video for All Too Well at all and that's one of her best videos. Or Everything Has Changed. I remember when I was in 7th grade I was in choir. We would have fundraising car washes. Our advisor was a "cool" young guy so we always had it on a corner of a busy and popular street. It was the parking lot of a store that sold stuff for cars, like rims and stereo systems - stuff like that. There was a Burger King across the street and we would all walk there for our break. Across from Burger King was another car parts store, O'Reillys and a grocery store. It was a busy street on a sunny Saturday. I vividly remember the cool/nice cars would have really loud stereo systems and they would be bumping Fantasy by Mariah Carey. Some of the girls would wear bathing suit tops and use it as an opportunity to tan. We were in 7th grade so we had little girl bodies, but still, it was fun. I remember Fantasy by Mariah Carey, My Boo by Ghost Town DJs, Love You Down by INOJ, I Wanna Be Down by Brandy, Summertime Summertime by Corina, Release Me by Angelina (a lot of songs from her self titled album), Feel So Good by Lina Santiago. The video could even be MC's kids and their friends at a car wash. Then Mariah can come pick them up at the end. Actually the other singers on it sound good and they can stay but Mariah needs more parts. Even background parts like she used to do for Allure. I know this is wishful thinking but it's fun.

Pics (110,219) by Jamie from UK Absolutely loving these pics of Mariah on this Instagram post. She looks gorgeous. (Wednesday 30 July 2025; 14:45)

Sugar Sweet (110,215) by Jamie from UK Do we know if the video will be released this week? I wish they had released the video at the same time. People's attention spans are shorter these days and react more to visuals. The momentum for [Sugar Sweet] [has] died off a bit and it was only released last week. Hopefully some remixes coming soon too. I'm no expert in the field but personally I'd release everything at once including video and remixes. In a fast world, if it's not an instant hit, people can move on, and then when you do release the video and remixes later the momentum and interest has gone. I might be wrong but I'd like to think they have more up their sleeve before 9/26 as that's a long time off. Maybe another single before then? Fingers crossed [Sugar Sweet] rebounds with video and remixes. (Wednesday 30 July 2025; 11:01) this is a reply to message 110,210

Sugar Sweet (110,210) by Giovanni from USA I agree Jamie. I also wish we had more of Mariah singing the song. A solo version would have been much better. (Tuesday 29 July 2025; 23:44)

Sugar Sweet (110,209) by Jamie from UK I've been listening to it today, I really wish she had also sung the 2nd verse, it's a catchy song but I don't think there's enough Mariah on it. When I heard the clips before its release I was excited but I actually think I prefer TD especially the soul of the people remix. (Tuesday 29 July 2025; 23:29) this is a reply to message 110,206

Sugar Sweet (110,206) by Bobby A from United States I can't believe Sugar Sweet is currently #83 on iTunes. This is not good. I don't think radio adds and the video next week will help Sugar Sweet debut on the Hot 100. I sure hope there are other songs that will carry the album after it drops on September 26th. I hope there are some features and samples that will be revealed to us soon. It is Mariah Carey vs. Morgan Wallen, Alex Warren, Teddy Swims, Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter and Justin Beiber right now on the iTunes chart right now and probably will be that way in late September. (Tuesday 29 July 2025; 20:48)

TD remix (110,205) by Jamie from UK I'm loving Type Dangerous (The touch the soul of the people remix) it's got a great vibe too it, think I prefer it to the original. It's on my summer playlist along with Its Like That (esentrix remix). (Tuesday 29 July 2025; 20:11)

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,186) by Jamie from UK We all like different styles of music, whether it be pop, hip hop, RnB, Soul. Mariah has covered those genres throughout her career even 1990-1995. She worked with C&C Music Factory to give her a street vibe, I loved it and the general audience loved it. The Butterfly album is a masterpiece I agree but I think the reason it didn't sell as much was purely the fact that she deviated far too quickly from what worked for her and her audience. She lost a big chunk of her core base. It didn't sell as much not because of its genre, it was purely down to what the public liked about Mariah and her style at the this time. As I said previously, I love urban Mariah otherwise I wouldn't continue to be a fan, I loved her and grew with her change in direction. Those that chose not to move with her was for their own personal music tastes and they're entitled to that. All I'm trying to get across is whilst we core fans might have stayed with her, the reason for her decline in sales is just down to the fact that more people preferred those early mixed genre days, and the sales spike for themselves. My love for Mariah and what I see as a current cognitive decline isn't me hating on her, I'm just coming from a concerned place. I appreciate your input and your views and I hope you have a nice day.

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,178) by Terna from Nigeria Getting uncomfortable I see. Lol. I wasn't the one who insinuated or brought it up, I just responded to his message and acknowledged he got that part, he's black too as he stated and gets it. "Butterfly" never did the numbers "Music Box" and "Daydream" did for that one fact. It is an R&B/HipHop album. Facts. But look at how highly rated that album is in contemporary music today. It is also her "Magnum Opus", she achieved her best work, being her authentic true self. I haven't "crowned" myself poison or anything negative here, as you put it, I'm not the one spitting vitriol out at Mariah here masked as "OG Love", from the OG Coven. (Tuesday 29 July 2025; 11:47)

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,171) by Jamie from UK I love the name Sydney. (Tuesday 29 July 2025; 11:04) this is a reply to message 110,165

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,165) by Stacey from USA I absolutely love accents. I was in line at Disney when a woman with her daughter got behind me. They were from Sydney, Australia. (I named my daughter Sydney.) We chatted and I told her she had a lovely accent. I am from Southern California. The only accent I have is how So Cal peeps tend to put "the" in front of a freeway. (Ex: You take "the" 15 to "the" 210, etc.). That's not even an accent, lol. Oh well, at least we have beaches. (Tuesday 29 July 2025; 09:55)

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,170) by Jamie from UK Can we just stick to the facts and not make this about some race war please. If you're talking music styles then yes I love urban/R&B Mariah but I wasn't talking about that. You've taken what we have been saying into your own context and twisted it into black vs white. Again shame on you. I think you've just crowned yourself the "poison" on this forum. We all love Mariah in our own way, respect people's opinions and stop being rude to people.

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,159) by Terna from Nigeria You get it, and I'm glad you addressed it from this angle, I just didn't want to get into it. Part of the main problem "OG's" have is Mariah's leaning towards black music and succeeding at it too - R&B/Hiphop specifically. That's why they will always have a problem with this "New Mariah", so to speak, because that Tommy version was molded to cater to a white audience. Let's call it as it is. However, that's not the real her, never really was to begin with - check "Vision of Love", that's a singer who's main and only influence is black music, gospel, R&B and hip-hop (check the debut album, isn't she rapping on "Prisoner"). What's mind boggling about these OG fans is that new Mariah (true Mariah) has now been out so to speak, much longer (all caps) than hairbangs Mariah (Music Box and Daydream) and she has pretty much remained the same since, yet they're still hooked on the curated Tommy's vision of her and think that somehow, someday she's gonna go back to pop and that image. Smh. (Tuesday 29 July 2025; 05:12)

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,133) by Jamie from UK Thank you for your spin on things, I most certainly will treasure those times, they were the best. (Monday 28 July 2025; 15:09) this is a reply to message 110,131

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,131) by Matthew from USA Every time someone on here proclaims themselves an OG, I have to take a deep breath and proceed with caution. Mariah has stated multiple times how controlled and unhappy she was in the first several years of her career. She threw herself into her work and convinced herself this was the price she had to pay for success. Other friends like Brat even wondered "How do you live like this?" It's a little weird to see all the OG's being nostalgic for this era. The OG's say she was a proper lady in this era - classy, dignified, pristine, graceful, and her true authentic self. They mourn her current state, which one is left to assume is the opposite of all those adjectives. I'm not here to invalidate anyone's opinion, but I can provide another perspective that Terna expressed - we both happen to be black. In our culture Mariah is viewed as bougie and fancy. Initially we were like "Who is this white girl singing down like that? Okay Mariah, Get down with your bad self. Do your thing, girl." I don't think one culture's perspective is more important than another's, but I think we should remember to try and view the whole. I do think Mariah would be disheartened that who she is now is causing so much sadness and heartache to the OG's. But I don't think she would go back (and no shade, but I heard the Walter song and I agree with her). I think she would sadly hand y'all the Art of Letting Go record. Go to Mimi on your contacts. Press delete. End your suffering. If it's any consolation, the OG's can always treasure the memory of Tommy controlled Mariah, when she was being her true authentic self.

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,129) by Bill from the UK Well put Jamie, thank you. Loving your posts lately. It's always difficult when an OG goes up against a Yaas Queen because we seem to be diametrically opposed. Lucky for us though the board allows all opinions to be voiced. Whether you're an OG, Yaas Queen, or a sweet innocent lamb that sits somewhere in between. We love everyone. But some we love more than others. (Monday 28 July 2025; 12:53)

They say she's the same but she isn't the same (110,127) by Jamie from UK I used to love watching Rosanne. (Monday 28 July 2025; 11:07) this is a reply to message 110,121

They say she's the same but she isn't the same (110,121) by Dove from United States Did you guys ever watch Roseanne? Does anyone remember how they switched the actresses who played Becky? It confused DJ and landed him in therapy. I was talking with my childhood friend about how MC looks like completely different people (both beautiful) at the beginning of her career and now. (Sidenote: of course it's expected that she would look different, everyone does with time, but since she still looks so young I don't expect her to look so different. It feels like five years instead of thirty, you know?) She started saying "They say she's the same but she isn't the same" but we couldn't remember where it was from. So I finally remembered and looked up the episode. We laughed so hard. It would be funny if MC did a skit like this with John Goodman. It's been so long now that probably nobody would remember this episode anymore, though. This was a highly rated show, does anyone else remember the episode where DJ says this? Anyway, I'm going to add a link so maybe somebody else can get a good laugh too. (Monday 28 July 2025; 06:01)

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,126) by Jamie from UK Aww this is a message board where people can voice their opinions. There was no negativity from any of my posts, we're not complaining as we are still supporting her by buying her music, as I said I like both TD and SS. I simply stating she is changed and how I personally would have liked her career to play out for the better, it doesn't mean I won't support her whatever she does or call her out for something I don't like. That is a true fan to me... being honest. You're the one calling people "silly fans" and "poison" and having a word censored. That isn't a nice trait. You're the one that should be ashamed of yourself, not us. (Monday 28 July 2025; 11:03) this is a reply to message 110,113

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,113) by Terna from Nigeria Someone needed to say it, thank you for this post. I too ain't the same person from when I started out being a fan in my teenage years, somehow they expect Mariah to remain the same. However, everything she is today, she's accomplished 35+ years in this music industry that we all know chews them up and spits them out (need I call names?) is because she's grounded in Christ first of all, and she follows her heart, that's still the same Mariah Carey I see today, it hasn't ever changed. And honestly that's what has preserved her charm, kept her relevant and intriguing 35 years later - she still has her light and gift in tact. Mariah if I'm not mistaken is the only artist who debuted in 1990 still on the charts today. What won't Whitney Houston fans give just to have one more era and album (shot vocals and all), tour from her. Something that will never happen, ever again. You silly fans here complain about the dumbest stuff, all the time. I thought Andrew was the poison here, but even as he's long gone, some new [censored] here have risen up to take his place. You should be quite ashamed of yourselves. (Monday 28 July 2025; 00:19)

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,109) by Jamie from UK I'm under no illusion over 30 years has past, even Mariah who refuses to acknowledge time (for some weird reason) will know that over 30 years has past. Let me put it this way, if Mariah was to hold her public image in some kind of way that resembles the early days I believe she would have more respect now and be more popular at this point. I'm not saying she should be skipping through fields in a plaid shirt and denim shorts (however cool that was) she's not a young girl anymore. But how I do feel she should be carrying herself is just like when she sang "With you I'm born again" in 2005. There she was a grown woman but with grace, she was articulate and professional. And way more stage presence that she has today. None of us are saying to go back 30 years, would be great if we could but what I and many others are saying is when she tries too much and cheapens herself it doesn't work. Mariah at this point in her career should be like that 2005 stage performance, balanced, elegant, professional, coherent and drawing the audience in. We all love Mariah and only want the best for her and know she's capable of so much more without the whole diva pretense. Ps. I never said she wasn't still a nice person.

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,101) by Zachariah from Croatia Hm, let's put it down like this; go back 30 years (this is for lambs who are following Mariah from day one) and try to remember yourself back then. Done? Ok. Now see yourself today. Somehow I doubt that you all are the same person. Because I am not. I was gullible, shy, very introverted, afraid to say something and just followed others. Today, I am unrecognizable. She is still a nice person and our Mariah - who gets her, gets her. Who doesn't, doesn't. (Sunday 27 July 2025; 00:19)

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,108) by Jamie from UK I always remember my Nana being pleased when I finally dropped being a Madonna fan in 1993 for Mariah as she didn't approve of Madonna and her dressing so inappropriately. At the time I remember thinking Mariah would never ever go that way as like you said she had such grace and a natural wholesome appeal that drew people in. Never would I imagine she would be in a convertible car in a sawn off wedding dress and garter acting provocatively in a music video. The OG's were so so lucky to have experienced that, it was life changing and such a force of nature that was unparalleled. It was completely organic and authentic. (Sunday 27 July 2025; 09:57) this is a reply to message 110,096

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,096) by Bill from the UK Jamie thank you for putting so eloquently my exact thoughts. I think only the OG fans can relate to what you say, because we were there living those great moments live at the time. I don't think people get just how special she was and how she drew so many people to her by being an incredible talent, humble, and her good fortune of being naturally photogenic. Talk about hitting a jackpot. But then to see it descend year by year is so heartbreaking. Not just the voice, but the grace, the elegance, the class, the poise... sigh. Right now you're gone, you just vanished away. But I'll never leave you behind. No, I'll never forget you. (Saturday 26 July 2025; 17:33)

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,097) by Jamie from UK Yes love the Joy to the World video for that reason, also love the Anytime You Need A Friend C&C remix video. The playfulness is so natural and she is so cool without even trying. She appealed from all angles back then. Now when people think of her it's for the big diva personality which has made her more unattractive to people over the years and pushed people away. But to her she thinks funny and has created this whole persona which unfortunately her career is based around as apposed to the music. She'll never be young Mariah again but at least have some dignity and humbleness to you, don't cheapen yourself for popularity. Mariah is the first to remind us she wrote her own songs at every chance she gets, but had she portrayed herself more professionally (at least in her persona) she wouldn't need to keep saying it, people would have had more respect for her, where as I think because of the image she has turned into people think she's an airhead, and she really hasn't done anything to quash that she is actually really intelligent. That's just my opinion and Mariah is free to live her life the way she chooses, but the humble Mariah we all fell in love with I'm sure wouldn't want to be like she is now. There's clearly some serious mental health issues going on as she's barely recognizably, I think the last time I remember her being fully coherent and like herself was during E=MC2 era. She was diva like but more in touch with herself and didn't appear lost and distracted. Whilst I think medication is crucial in her situation, I can't help but think she is heavily over medicated and it's causing this huge shift in her. I would love her to go on some kind of retreat where everything is stripped back, no cameras no booze no external interaction etc where she has no choice but to be at one with herself to find her true inner self again.

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,090) by MusicfanJ from Germany Jamie, Edward I absolutely feel the same about Mariah. It's good to know some longtime fans also miss the authentic, lovely Mariah. I miss the natural Mariah. "She was sexy without even trying, and that voice was just next level. That combo is what made her so special." So true, that was something beside her voice that made her so unique, so loveable and even relateable. For me this will always be the real Mariah. Of course we all change a bit with age, but most people stay indeed the same just wiser and older with luck. I do wonder what made her change so much too? Sometimes it feels like she hides the humble Mariah inside. I understand it can be a shield or something but it must be more than that. The "Joy to the world video" is one of my favourites. Not because it's so good, no story I know, but just seeing an already global superstar, having so much fun, looking so carefree, a diva but with a big heart and humour, Mariah was never more beautiful, more adorable than when she's "not trying". (Saturday 26 July 2025; 13:29)

The evolution of Mariah Carey (110,075) by Jamie from UK Whilst I love that Mariah is still putting out music I can't help but wonder what went wrong for Mariah. I've just heard Without You on an Instagram post which to me is the pinnacle of Mariah in 1993, you couldn't get much better than that. To now her latest single Sugar Sweet (which I don't mind) but let's be honest she can barely sing this tune and it isn't very taxing on the voice as a were her earlier hits. When I hear old school Mariah I can't help but feel sad at where we are now. A complete transformation of personality and a huge degrading of vocals. What happened? Was it self inflicted or is it just natural wear and tear of a once untouchable voice. I would love to rewind to 1993 when her career took off internationally and just remind her to stay grounded and focus on what's important. I've said this multiple times but I just don't get how we went from Mariah to MC it's such a contrast of personalities. Her early cross over stuff was cool but as I've said countless times she took it too far and I think the partying etc took a toll on her vocals and ate away at her wholesomeness. She might say and pretend that she's always been hood but I remember those early days and there was no pretence, just a natural girl living her best life. Yes we all change but we're still recognisable, I think Mariah took it too far and now she doesn't even recognise herself. Her appearance last night on Jimmy Kimmel is a far cry from who she once was, I would love to sit 1993 Mariah down and show her 2025 Mariah. I don't even think she would relate to that. I'm speaking from the heart and probably don't understand the ins and outs of the celebrity lifestyle and how it affects you both physically and mentally. But part of me wants to understand what went wrong and what happened to Mariah and why she's so affected now and her voice has taken such a turn. It's great she's still giving us music but vocally and especially personality she's a far cry from what she was. I don't even think Mariah knows herself anymore she's that affected. I reminisce of her dancing on the beach with "to be around you" playing out to her now barely able to focus or speak and can't but help to want to say to her it's ok to be Mariah again.

Mariah's charting power (110,072) by Jamie from UK It's been number 2 on UK iTunes. (Friday 25 July 2025; 22:31) this is a reply to message 110,060

Mariah's charting power (110,060) by Bobby A from United States Based upon the #5 charting postion of Sugar Sweet on iTunes today and Type Dangerous still rising on the radio airplay charts, I feel Here For It All is going to do very well during the first sales week. And we still haven't received the full tracklisting with features and full writing credits. I feel some writers were deliberately left off the Apple songwriters credits list that we saw to keep their feature status a secret. (Friday 25 July 2025; 17:50)

Article: Mariah pairs leopard print slipdress with throwback hair (110,063) by Jamie from UK This picture sums up my thoughts on that appearance last night, $5 hooker. Who the hell styles her. She has worn some lovely stuff recently but this look is not fly. Sack the stylist. (Friday 25 July 2025; 19:47)
