About Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End: What the hell is this, MyFace? You mess with MiMi, you mess with ME! #NuffSaid khassandras@gmail.com My MC 2015 fantasy wish list (48,007) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End (Saturday 22 November 2014; 3:07) PREFACE I started out wanting to make or update my previous wish list to realizing that I'm not really that hung up on Mariah accomplishing more than she already has. That's not to say that I will not celebrate in her future commercial endeavors, obviously. Just that it's not as important as being truly spiritually fulfilled. I wish that for myself and I pray that for other people that I love and even people I don't know or have a natural liking for. I understand that not everybody is going to get why I feel the need to post this but I would reference Mariah's own expressed Faith and core beliefs and desires since the world first heard 'Vision of Love'. This is who she has always been striving to become. I recently reread Her autobiography: 'The Meaning of Mariah Carey' and these are some of the thoughts I came away with: "Hopes, Dreams, Wishes, and Prayers for Mariah Carey: 1. Spiritual Fulfillment - That she continues to nurture her relationship with God, leaning on Him for guidance, peace, and joy in all aspects of her life. 2. A Godly Marriage - That she finds a partner who shares her faith, values, and desire to honor God in their union. 3. Healing and Restoration - That the scars from her past—whether from childhood or past relationships—are fully healed, allowing her to live with peace and joy unshaken by old wounds. 4. Authentic Love and Support - That she surrounds herself with people who truly love, respect, and support her for who she is, beyond her celebrity persona. 5. Grace to Be Human - That she is shown grace and understanding by others, allowing her to make mistakes, grow, and evolve without judgment or undue criticism. 6. Freedom from Worldly Pressures - That she finds liberation from the entertainment industry’s materialistic and superficial values, allowing her to fully embrace her God-given identity. 7. Purposeful Legacy - That she continues to use her platform and music to inspire others and share the presence of God, as she has done through her Christmas albums and other works. 8. A Loving and Faith-Centered Family - That her family relationships, including with her children, remain strong, loving, and centered on mutual faith and respect. 9. Unwavering Faith - That she remains steadfast in her faith, even when faced with life’s challenges, and continues to be a beacon of hope for others. 10. Divine Guidance - That she discerns God’s will in her decisions, whether in her personal life or professional endeavors, and trusts His plan for her. " In Jesus Almighty name, Amen.

JB, student at The Mariah Carey Institute Of Shade (56,792) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End This story from last week continuously has me in stitches. There are already "I don't know him" gifs and everything. No disrespect to Shawn Mendes since he's obviously very talented but this is all very funny to me. And Justin follows him now so in the end Shawn actually benefited from all of this "controversy" because more people know about both him and his music now. "Justin Bieber throws serious shade at Shawn Mendes in radio interview. " Watch. Justin Bieber has obviously been studying at the Mariah Carey's Institue Of Shade, because he pulled the old "I don't know her" (or him, in this case) when asked about fellow Canadian pop star Shawn Mendes in a recent radio interview. The host asked if he had any advice for his younger rival and the "What Do You Mean?" superstar seemingly drew a blank. "Who's Shawn Mendes?" he asked his entourage. The DJ then awkwardly listed Shawn's credentials. "He's on Island, he's from Southern Ontario, he's 17 years old, he has a song called 'Stitches' that's doing ok at pop radio." Justin's response? "Nice. Good for him." Cold. Even if he isn't familiar with teen's music, the new face (and abs) of Calvin Klein would at least recognize his name. After all, Shawn's debut LP Handwritten debuted at number one on the Billboard - something Journals failed to achieve. Watch up top. Is this shade or has Justin really not listened to the radio or been online for the last year? Let us know below, or by hitting us up on Facebook and Twitter. (Monday 21 September 2015; 8:08)

Re: Like golden petals scattering (56,776) (56,783) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End It might be too late to backtrack now. I have a reputation to uphold you know? Besides, I got an inspired title right after I posted, I'm just figuring out the format. I was always going to do this, just needed Andrew to post something like he did the other day about Petals. It's been established that he has plenty of Yes men and supporters so it's not like a David vs Goliat situation here. This stuff is fun for me. It ain't all deep cuts. (Sunday 20 September 2015; 21:47)

Re: Like golden petals scattering (50,086) (56,765) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End This post of dear Andrew from February 15th of this year has 15 likes: "The media has 'turned' against Mariah." The bleatings of the lambs continue. Almost every message on this board about why things aren't going well for Mariah is about *other* people doing things *to* poor, perfect Mariah. This is delusion wrapped in a fantasy designed to profligate the idea that Mariah is a victim (cross fingers for new victim song). The media is going to vilify anyone caught out for faking, especially if it's in such a public way and especially if it's by someone who has acted like a stuck-up diva for ten years in re: attitude and tardiness. Why would they give her a break? She controls her own career, she has cast off anyone who could have provided direction over the past decade and she arrogantly thinks she can do this (which she has done several times) when she is on top as if she belongs there of her own accord, pity everyone who worked to get her there. The problem? It's not Nick, it's not Tommy, it's not Luis, it's not the media, it's not Ariana, it's not Nicki. It's Mariah. Her decisions, her attitude, her unprofessionalism, her arrogance, her amateurism. Stop blaming everyone else. NB I can predict the future, wait, hark, can you hear: "You're so mean. Why do you even come here. You're this pathetic label I'm recycling." It's the bloody truth. The media print what they think the public will buy. If it can buy Mariah being a joke it's because she acts like one. She not a star anymore. Grammy? They understandably didn't want the association." Andrew is a joke and his sycophants are obviously not here to support Mariah. Just look at his own contradictory statements: "Petals (56,727) by Andrew from UK" on September 17th. He doesn't even remember what he posts as long as it's derogatory towards Mariah or any of us LAMBS. He doesn't care to keep any continuity in his own posts. I've rarely seen such blatant and complete lack of integrity. But that's also why I hope Andrew stays for a long long long time because that would amuse me in ways I can't begin to explain. I could very easily, make this a weekly event because unlike Andrew, my memory is elephantine. Once I have a good zingy title there really won't be a reason not to. So don't anybody scare him or his friends off just yet, I need him here to provide fresh material. (Sunday 20 September 2015; 1:34)

Bad Blood: The hijacking of The Elusive Chanteuse (56,756) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End So I'm online, minding Mariah's business, right? And what do I come across but some broadband moron hijacking The Elusive Chanteuse moniker for their own, often times, lesser fave? I wouldn't have made much of it except it wasn't the first time I'd seen it and not even the same performer. But I'm nothing if not a faux scientist so of course I set out to prove myself wrong. I think you all know where this is going but long story short I found not one, not two, but countless instances of bloggers, "journalists", random posters etc misappropriating "The Elusive Chanteuse" phrase to: in no particular order; JLo (in Spanish), Nelly Furtado, Rihanna and Janet Jackson (real? and true?), Lana Del Rey, Jennifer Hudson, Britney, Alanis Morisette, Jennifer Lawrence, Beyonce and Sia (both many several times over), Ariana Grande (in Portuguese no less), Taylor Swift, Leona Lewis, Vonda Shepard, Nicki Minaj, Xtina, Estelle, Leighton Meester, Madonna, even RuPaul and Buffy The Vampire Slayer were like: Bitch, don't forget about us, we're elusive chanteuses too. Hollah. I didn't even include some singers and actresses (WTF) because I hadn't even ever heard of them before. It's so irksome that one troll couldn't even use the masculine form (chanteur) for MJ in their hurry to dilute Mariah's newest alias. Why do people do this? I thought MIAMTEC was a flop album, yet here goes literally everybody you can Google being called the elusive chanteuse. Wasn't the album title mocked to high heavens and Mariah lambasted for it? Me. I Am Mariah... The Elusive Chanteuse is part of MC's legacy as much as Music Box, Daydream, Butterfly is but it would have been The Art Of Letting Go if some idiot goat hadn't leaked it. In the end it didn't matter one way or another because shameless people are determined to steal from Mariah in broad daylight even her signature idiosyncratic song and album titles. Why is Mariah's hard work and intellectual properties seen as communal wealth and whose camps are behind the charge? That is a rhetorical question BTW. My 2¢. (Saturday 19 September 2015; 14:22)

Random: the album Butterfly (56,735) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End So this past Monday I was rushing through a mall and suddenly I hear Ouside playing inside an Oasis store. That meant someone had probably played the whole album because it's such an obscure fan favorite. I didn't even have time to really take it in since I was in a hurry and kinda forgot all about it until just now. I need to track down the Lamb who is responsible for playing Butterfly in its anniversary week and seduce him/her into being my friend. I guess this is me manifesting my master plan. Yeah, Lamb-dencity is low in Sweden at least in my experience and to be fair I have fairly high personal standards for who passes. But I have faith in this Oasis person. Pretty random, ey?

Article: Mariah in 1990: critics loved her, thought she was white (56,711) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End I have a theory: The more (white bigoted) people who find out she isn't white and the more control over her own image she gained where she would beam with pride over her mixed heritage, especially the African-American part, the more likely they are to shun her. Mariah was always an R&B, Gospel and Soul-singer-songwriter, as most black artists are. It's only some people's perception of her that has changed and flip-flopped. Just look at her Grammy Awards 16 years apart: Best new Artist and Pop Vocal for Vision Of Love. VOL is a Gospel/R&B/Soul record. That's just a fact. It's not Pop. Pop is just another euphemism for what appeals to the greater white audience. And then came the Grammy drought, to the point where she was snubbed entirely in 1996 after delivering two massive diamond albums, Daydream in particular with its record breaking Billboard chart successes. Never mind how the stellar Butterfly was ignored even though it was clearly her best musical effort. Fast forward to 2006 and she finally gets to add three Grammies to her first two and they are all in the R&B category. It literally took 16 years for her to even be recognised and awarded by her genre peers. That's very strange no matter how you look at it for an artist of Mariah's calibre. You would think she hadn't done anything significant between her debut and TEOM. MIAMTEC was a #1 album on the R&B charts because that's her base. She will always do well there. So when certain posters go on and on about how Mariah needs to switch musical genres and work with people who have nothing to do with black music, when she's been an R&B artist her whole life, I find it interesting. Very interesting. My 2¢. (Thursday 17 September 2015; 6:27)

Mariah's welcome to Game Of War Offices (56,678) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End You wouldn't know the difference between these professional gamers and computer programmers from the Lambily at large judging from that uproarious and enthusiastic welcome and I just love that. It bodes well for the future. I wonder if she's played GoW herself yet? Like, what's her username: #1Hero? Yeah, that's probably it, very inconspicuous. (Wednesday 16 September 2015; 8:18)

Re: Melody & Mistletoe (56,659) (56,677) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Stalk the set B? Like, Hello, you can be in the damn thing you know, paid and everything. They're gonna need extras and crew. You lucky bastard tbh. Report back whatever happens and make sure you represent the Lambily. Say hi from MCA if you get a chance, tell her to put something in the Christmas movie for us, a Lamb Easter egg. (Wednesday 16 September 2015; 8:08)

Time to be heroes, guys (56,636) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End I absolutely love this Game of War take on Hero. Gives the song a whole new meaning kinda. A lot more firece than anyone would have imagined just a year ago. Wonder who she's playing since she's obviously not a real life Dragon Slayer. Well, as far as we know, right? Kate was supposed to be portraying Athena but whatever. M looks amazingly fabulous, the camera just loves her. Anyway, it's always great to see Mariah venture into new territories, quite literally this time, re-imagine her classics and mess around with her image. Honestly, "Camp Mariah" is the most genius thing ever. Keep 'em coming MiMi. (Monday 14 September 2015; 23:11)

Re: Dial M for Miscellaneous (56,603) (56,608) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Hey Eric, when in [sic] wrote 1. "The Daydream Shades (as in plural)" I was deliberately going for a double entendre. I was referencing Daydream because that's when she started wearing sunglasses, shades, and that's also when we learned she was a practitioner of the art of shade through her response to being dissed by Madonna. So the plural "s" in shades wasn't a typo. I appreciate that you actually read our posts to the point where you sometimes correct spelling and grammar but occasionally the meaning and point of what I wrote originally gets lost. I'd rather you keep all, and not just some, of the minor mistakes you think I make if you can stand it. Or maybe make a note or exclamation? For the record, I have no issue with whatever you censure, that's your prerogative as Webmaster. God bless. (Saturday 12 September 2015; 5:55)

Dial M for Miscellaneous (56,603) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Mariah has so many musical calling cards but has also acquired a whole bunch of very symbolic ones through her many album eras that have become a part of her signature brand. 1.The Daydream shade. Classic moment. 2. Barely there Rainbow-Glitter cleavage-dresses. 3. The stilleto and platform heels which, along with her dresses, find themselves frequently in water for one reason or another. No one knows exactly why but scientists are conducting studies at NASA so that one day our grandchildren may finally know the truth. 4.The Heartbreaker jeans. But really, Mariah has always been very much about her denim. That's the one staple in her wardrobe that doesn't really have an entry date. 5.The world's most casual wearer of diamonds. The charmbracelet butterfly ring. You may kiss it if your lips are free from Mariah slander. 6. The #1s called Lambs. A most uniquely formed fandom. The only one of it's kind as it is literally an extension of Mariah's immidiate inner circle. 7. Bianca, she who needs no introduction. The emancipation of BiBi: coming soon. 8. AniMariah the cartoon and 3D version of MC that is forever immortalised on film. I would love to hear her speak and see her go on little adventurers. *hint hint* 9. Queen and originator (as always) of personalised gear, be it blinged out mics, pink road cases, bejewelled ear pieces or initialed walk-in closet and pool floor designs. 10. Fritz quadrata a.k.a. Mariah's font. Enough said. When will anyone, ever? (Friday 11 September 2015; 19:53)

E=MC's Cup? (56,600) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End The tabloid press is obviously being instructed to spread as many false stories about Mariah's boobs, and body over all, as possible because THTB can't stand how well she is doing or how good she looks doing it. The desperation is delicious and I just love how M is completely unbothered. Come on Donna. She's the shit and she knows it. And if you didn't know, I just told you. (Friday 11 September 2015; 15:28)

Ellen has judging AI as one of her worst decisions (56,566) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End So Ellen DeGeneres was on Howard Stern's radio show and had nothing but superlatives to say about her time on American Idol. Howard: "Did you hate judging 'American Idol'?" Ellen: "Yes. That's one of the worst decisions I've made." Robin: "Why did you want to do it in the first place?" Ellen: "As a fan of the shows, it doesn't matter that I sing or I know anything about pitch or anything, I'm like everybody else at home. It's 'American Idol.' So I thought I'm gonna represent those people at home that have opinions, but then I just thought, like Howard says, I can't break this person's heart. Let somebody else do that." Ain't it funny how Mariah kinda started a trend in exposing the false Idols of reality competitions? When will your lesser faves? (Thursday 10 September 2015; 8:37)

Rare I Still Believe (Together Remix) (56,553) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End I've never heard this remix before and it's brilliant. Krayzie Bone and Mariah are Magical together. Like, when will your lesser faves ever have so many amazing unreleased tracks 25 years into their career? These things make me so happy. (Wednesday 9 September 2015; 16:16)

Why You Mad? choreography (56,548) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End I could have with I'd already posted this the second it was uploaded a few weeks ago but whatever, here it is. Thanks for the reminder Warrior Butterfly (Wednesday 9 September 2015; 14:35)

WDYM? Justin Bieber's first Billboard Hot 100 #1 (56,543) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Congratulations JB, you have officially arrived. And it's a hot shot debut too. Despite his established global popularity and unprecedented success in sales, the BB Hot #1 has been his most elusive achievement. He has a long way to go before he is anywhere near Mariah's or her fellow legends level but it's a good start. Also, What Do You Mean? is actually a pretty good song, meaning not just a bunch of words thrown together haphazardly. It reminds me a lot, lyrically, of YDNWTD from MIAMTEC. God bless, much love. (Wednesday 9 September 2015; 8:52)

Little Lambs wishing MCPH happy 13th anniversary (56,516) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End On a much lighter note. Do Philippino schools actually have Mariah Carey in their official syllabus or something? These things make me smile. (Monday 7 September 2015; 21:38)

Re: Mariah's theme (56,457) (56,514) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End Your post comes off as a desperate attempt to distract from the indisputable points I made about strange men, having nothing but negative things to say about one of the most beautiful women alive and how she should change her body to their specific, yet contradictory, liking. As far as we know, you are (hopefully) also complete strangers to her which makes it creepy to be honest. People with possible personality disorders who obsess over the cutting and slicing of a female's body who doesn't even know you exist? I'd be scared to label you and your lot. How you turned that into gay bashing I will thankfully never know. But whatever keeps you up at night is fine by me. (Monday 7 September 2015; 21:24)

Re: The body: no filter (56,504) (56,512) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End You're a lousy liar making such statements without even taking the time to fabricate false proof. FYI, using Instagram filters on occasion is not photoshopping. No woman in their right mind would post unflattering pictures of themselves of their own volition. We pick and chose, delete the ones we don't like and keep the good ones. A filter is just a fun feature on most modern devises. You obviously haven't ever been introduced to one going by what you let roam your mind and then post for all our displeasure. But make no mistake Andrew, you are a valuable im-poster because as long as there are lurkers and unnamed members liking your posts in kegion and ignoring the obvious Lamb posts, your very presence proves how deep seated the vendetta against Mariah still is. But thanks to you and your email buddies Team Mariah has never been more hip to the scheme. Keep up the good work. (Monday 7 September 2015; 20:55)

Mariah the beautiful (56,496) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End As usual I'm going against the grain but, much like James, I like Mariah just the way she is now. I can't remember a time where she didn't exude health and good habits, now or any other time. She's lost about 171 pounds a.k.a. 78 kilos, of a dumbbell, this past year and it shows in her entire deportment. She's gained a significant amount of smile muscles instead and looks extremely relaxed and carefree on top of being plain beautiful. She can finally carry Dembabies in her arms and play with them freely after that nasty fall on the #Beautiful remix video-shoot that changed her whole life trajectory with the multiple injuries she suffered through and is still recovering from as far as we know. It was a blessing in disguise because it's helped expose the people who don't wish her well and brought her true champions out. I love how confident she is in her own body no matter what size she is and how little value she places in looks when it comes to who she counts as friends or admires as artists etc. Fun fact: I haven't personally owned a scale since 2006 because Mariah said she didn't. Thanks MiMi. I'd rather buy her new album, whenever it comes out, with the money. Or treat a friend to dinner for no particular reason. I also like a good boot so I indulge accordingly. But that's just me. Anybody who believes in Mariah when everybody else doubts her and sees all the good that radiates out of her when the detractors are busy finding flaws is A-OK in my book. So shootout to all of you (a.k.a. Lambs) who are in that category. With that said: Go WoolPac go. As you were. (Sunday 6 September 2015; 16:51)

M with Bono and The Edge in back stage pic (56,479) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End "At the opening night of the U2 European tour."

Mariah's birthday tweet at Beyonce (56,470) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End "Happy Bday to you beautiful Beyonce. Here's to another great year." (Friday 4 September 2015; 18:36)

Mariah's theme (56,452) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End The Boobologists on this board crack me up with their useless theories formed without any firsthand, or secondhand knowledge for that matter. When is the last time any of you had the pleasure of handling a woman's breasts without the authorities being alerted? Stick to what you know (which is nothing unless you're talking about dicks) when expounding on Mariah's body over which you have no jurisdiction by the way. The sexism some of you male posters engage in is pretty sickening. It's beyond Mariah bashing at this point. The bodyshaming needs to stop. I don't come here to have my femininity insulted by proxy as you attack everything about Mariah Carey that was God given. Mariah is clearly proud to be a woman and always has been. She is beautiful in all her feminine form. When you nitpick and even go so far as lie and fabricate about her body it shows signs of pathology. This board is not the ideal place to deal with whatever ails you since you're obviously not Lambs. I would tell you to listen to Hero, AYNAF, MIH, VOL, CTTA, I Wish You Well, Infinity etc but I'm pretty sure that'd be like throwing holy water on demons and might do more harm than good. May God bless you all and deliver you from your tormentors. (Thursday 3 September 2015; 23:46)

Re: Negativity (56,420) (56,427) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End The Duplicity. Even a lie aspires to be as truthful as possible. You fool no one but your own chain of fools. Your choice of boardname alone is an affront. I'm sure you have kept your options open. The Lambily wishes you well and hope you find a more agreeable forum, like Nathan Morris' Facebook page. (Tuesday 1 September 2015; 22:05)

A couple of requests for the new MCA (56,355) by Baby from Dreamville...Where There's No Beginning & There is No End 1. I really miss the search function. Is that coming back at some point? MCArchives was so great with the unique news scroll with all the Mariah stories going back to the 90's. 2. Is there a possibility for there to be cursors between the news stories like we have for the message posts? That would be brilliant. 3. And the member index is no more? Eric, will you please let us know if and when you have settled on what the template MCA's new brand is gonna be/ ook like? I just thought I might speak up since we got the discography section back only because you didn't realise it's part of the MCA brand and very much appreciated. Maybe I'm too late with my observations but I just thought they would magically reappear in some form. Either way I will make due. For your consideration. (Friday 28 August 2015; 19:47)
