Re: 1 sale or 32 million sales is still a legend (87,077) (87,103) by Edward from USA
"Edward I sincerely doubt you know how to stream, your generation is just too elderly now." Who said that, a wannabe shady bitch? You definitely didn't pass Mariah's "Shady Class". I've been using a computer since I was 5 and I'm not 40 yet, streaming is the most basic of things, at least to me. I'm happy not to be part of your generation, look at the charts and music scene and see how your awesome Kardashian generation is supporting and producing talents like Mariah, they're so full of depth.

Re: Ugh Ariana (87,065) (87,076) by Edward from USA
The song doesn't sound like anything Mariah would do. As for the whistle register, Mariah doesn't own it. Minnie Riperton and many others have used it before her.

Re: Legend forever (87,051) (87,052) by Edward from USA
And your name is? Who the "beep" do you think you are to blame lambs for Mariah's failure? Oh, I know who you are, the one who said on post (69,096) "Mariah's World is everything: Wow wow wow. This show was beyond anything I could have imagine, it was so great. I loved the Stella moments so much, I truly do respect her much more than I did. The Bianca moment was hysterical." We suck at streaming? What about she sucks at producing anything worth streaming in the past few years. What about the fact that Mariah's fan base has shrunk to a point where even buying multiple copies or streaming every day we cannot even get a video to 5 million views in two months? What about the fact that Mariah rarely puts out any music and due to people attention span they forget anything quick and they don't seem to be willing to wait for years and years when the options out there are endless? Lambs alone are not responsible for Mariah's success or failure, but the general public that used to connect to her and her music, those are the ones who are getting AIWFCIY to higher chart positions, not the lambs. You seem to live in La La Land. If you jump off a cliff trying to fly with an umbrella, you'll see how you break your Mary Poppins' behind. Even though we complain, most of us here are still very dedicated to Mariah's music, as in buying, following, going to concerts and supporting her in general. I got "Caution" twice because I wanted the Japan edition too, but there are others who got multiple copies of the album. What you see is a reflection of what's left of her fan base since it seems to be we're the only ones who care about her music nowadays.

Re: Caution drops to #163 on Billboard 200 albums chart (87,011) (87,016) by Edward from USA
Here we go again blaming everybody for Mariah's commercial flops. When will we stop blaming everybody and realize that Mariah is not popular anymore when it comes to her music, and that it doesn't matter if the album is great or when it was released. Of course they knew there was a chance Mariah's Christmas music would cannibalize Caution's sales, but I think it was a great move since nobody is focusing on the flop at the moment because Mariah is riding high on her Christmas success, and with a potential new top 5. In the current music scene you can't just disappear for four years and expect people to remember you when you come back, it hasn't worked like that in ages. Caution is a good album in my opinion, but what she's known for, her big voice, it's basically non-existent on this album, not even on some songs. Since that live feed was leaked from that performance of AIWFCIY, the reign of Stella, and her New Year's lipping fail, she's lost much of the respect people had for her as a vocalist and that shows greatly with the reception of this great album. I suggest some of you focus on the music, enjoy, and stop blaming those who have given Mariah the best public perception she's had in many many years, it's not their fault she's flopping commercially. She hired Stella, she went through with Mariah's World, she was the one shading people and acting as if she was better than anybody else, now it's going to take time and work for her to recover some of what she lost. If Mariah takes another four year break with the way her voice keep deteriorating, she'll be selling 10K copies next time. Mariah needs to be in the spotlight again for her music not for her boobs and crazy diva persona.

You have a very subtle way to imply that some people here are almost too gay to function. I'm not reading your posts anymore, until the next one of course.

Re: Billboard's Woman of the Year (86,940) (86,955) by Edward from USA
I agree with you 100%. The fact that Ariana's singing career started like many new artists, on YouTube, and that she covered a few of Mariah's songs, including the very difficult Emotions and AIWFCIY, made it even worse for the media to let it go. Since then she's done music trying to find her own voice and style. Ariana could be Mariah's daughter, and I thought Mariah would acknowledge her differently, but she's never shown the girl any love, so why should Ariana keep kissing her ass citing her as a huge influence? As for Ariana's music, well, her music doesn't do for me what Mariah's does, but I enjoyed "Yours Truly" and a few songs from "Dangerous Woman". Mariah coming from the struggle and a dysfunctional family, having an exceptional voice and having the ability to put her life experiences into great lyrics set her apart from Whitney, Celine and the rest. It seems to be though that singers/lyricists like Mariah, Alanis Morissette and late Dolores O'Riordan produced their best work when they were struggling with life in general or unhappy. Mariah is definitely an anomaly in the music industry. Some sing, some write, some produce, but Mariah's done them all exceptionally without even trying hard.

Re: Top R&B albums - back to back #1s (86,891) (86,894) by Edward from USA
Dear Brandon, either you're blind or you are still using a flip phone. Which one is it? GTFO and WY have videos as expensive as the record breaking views they have accumulated since they were released. I like both songs, but child please.

Re: Top R&B albums - back to back #1s (86,886) (86,889) by Edward from USA
Most of those folks who are buying "Merry Christmas" are not her fans. They're buying great Christmas music which happens to be Mariah's. That's why the general public is imperative for an album to be commercially successful, unless you have a huge fan base, but sadly Mariah is not popular anymore when it comes to her music, and it is perfectly ok, nobody stays at the top forever. To be honest, this is the first time I haven't felt disappointed because a Mariah album is not doing as we expected commercially, but it's doing so critically, which is more important at this stage in her career. I was watching Ariana's new video and how it broke the record for most views in 24 hours, 54.5 million, and now it has 114 million views in 4 days. I wanted to hate on her, but then I saw a young Mariah in her trying to make it when she was being compared to others, when they said she lacked emotion in her voice. Yes, Mariah has less than 5 million views for low budget video for "With You", but that doesn't make it a bad song or less than some of the most viewed ones. It's good to note that Ariana brings in the money and she has big budgets for her videos just like Mariah when she was popular. I actually think it's liberating not to be checking the charts with anxiety, I'm just letting the music do the talking, for me.

Caution (86,858) by Edward from USA
Caution is short and sweet with the vocals of Mariah O' the Day, of course. I have the feeling she'll go all out on her next album, hopefully next year. As for considering "Caution" better than "Charmbracelet", if I were to choose based on lyrics, creativity and art overall, I would take "Charmbracelet" over "Caution" any day. Mariah pen game on "Charmbracelet" is great, still poetic and meaninful.

Re: Mariah Carey shelved projects (86,849) (86,854) by Edward from USA
You're right. "The Angel Cut and Paste" was the only project announced that never saw the light of day. I'm happy it was shelved. That would've been a stain in her recording career.

Re: For the life of me (86,838) (86,853) by Edward from USA
Andrew, you have to stop telling people about the albums you cherish the most. Those bitch ass folks rate them with 3 stars just to go against you, don't you see? There's an illuminati mole in this board. I hope I used "bitch ass folks" correctly.

Re: Hot 100 #14 (86,827) (86,835) by Edward from USA
Wow, that's definitely a huge jump. I can see a top five pretty soon. It's sad, but that song could be her last chance at charting so high.

Re: Bill (86,804) (86,812) by Edward from USA
Bill, you're not nosy, with a wide set bootgina and a heavy flow you would also be calling people all sorts of things. At that stage, most guys tend to have a lot of feelings, don't take it personal. Probably he'll say TJ made out with a hot dog there in Norway on his next post. So mean.

Re: "Caution" is #1 in Billboard's R&B Albums Chart (86,693) (86,697) by Edward from USA
Stop trying to make "signature sound" happen. It's not going to happen. You should be punished by listening to "What You Mad" for the rest of the day, but that would definitely kill you.

How dare you put the words "Why You Mad" near my name. I'm complaining to Eric right now.

Re: Almost Home (86,670) (86,677) by Edward from USA
We all know that if Mariah had writen even a "la la la" on "Almost Home", she wouldn't have said the words "whoever wrote it". It's obvious she was given the song to sing and she went along with it. Of course, had it turned into another "Without You" or "When You Believe" she would be singing a different tune. I think she should've ziped her lips on that one. She should comment on the genius of Crapfinity, its remix and Infamous instead. Arrogant much.
(Friday 30 November 2018; 01:12)
Re: Almost Home (86,656) (86,664) by Edward from USA
Mariah wanted to rename the song "Almost Hood" and take some credit as a song writer, but they refused and now she's bitter. Some people are so touchy.

Re: "Caution" is #1 in Billboard's R&B Albums Chart (86,657) (86,662) by Edward from USA
Do you think we thought you didn't know? We all know you have a signature sound crystal ball.

Re: Almost Home (86,650) (86,654) by Edward from USA
Mariah should stop with the whining about other people's songs. "Almost Home" is epic and different from her. She very much put her touch on it. Had it been a massive hit, she would be singing a different song. As for what she writes, well, nowadays it seems to be as many as 11 people could have a hand in helping her craft a song.

Re: Caution (86,571) (86,594) by Edward from USA
I hadn't even noticed I typed "Caption", lol. Well, I'm happy it's a short album. Finally people have come to realize Mariah is not a seller machine as she used to be, that's good. Christmas is definitely going to drown "Caution" up. Reviving in January? Let's see. I like "A No No", but I do think, and I hope to be wrong, that Cardi and Lil Kim are going to waste on another generic remix. I think Mariah should use them on remixes for "The Distance" and "8th Grade". By the way.

Caution (86,526) by Edward from USA
I'm enjoying "Caption" because I know that most likely we won't hear any music in a long long time, I hope I'm wrong. I would love some great remixes though.
