Next single (109,243) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
I know it's premature to talk about this but I have been hearing rumours that the next single is going to be a ballad type duet with Anderson .Paak. There are a few reasons I don't think that's a good idea.

- It's the TEOM cloning all over again which tanked E=MC2 and her future releases for trying to do the same format. I think her next single should still be another uptempo song. A fresh new sound like T-Dang. It's summer so let it be fun and something people can enjoy and feel uplifted. Some catchy lyrics, a strong chorus (Sabrina Carpenter dominated summer with her clever lyrics and choruses, the "I'm working late cos I'm a singer" or the catchy chorus of Espresso, or the digs in "Taste" and "Please Please Please" to name a few). So I think her next single should be uptempo and catchy. The general public is seemingly responding well to T-Dang not just lambs which is new and we need the GP to get success.

- I honestly think if she is releasing any collaborations as singles it should be high impact and high profile collaborators that can benefit her on the charts if she really wants those #1's stacking up. Also she is possibly in a relation with him and I think it'll be sweeter to keep it as an album track than an official single.

Those are my thoughts and 2 cents.

Change your type (109,242) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
Hahah you beat me to it. She's embracing she has a thing for the dangerous men and says "I'm not afraid of love that's why I love 'em dangerous". Also I think she's just playing up a persona not saying it literally. She's in her femme fatale era.

Joseph Kahn (109,241) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
Stop I'm screaming hahah that would be hilarious and would break the internet lol but JLo's ego would not allow it but can you image if they agreed to it haha. Ugh I can't wait. I hope Joseph didn't hype us up only to give us another #B video with a green screen motorcycle scene hahah I'm joking we've already got some snippets and it looks like budget was there for a good video.

Joseph Kahn (109,240) by Carlos from Brazil
I am also very excited for the music video. Joseph Kahn is really teasing us. I read online that the earth shattering surprise would be JLo getting barred at the club entrance and then Mariah goes to the bouncer and says "I know her." Lol.

Change your type (109,239) by MusicfanJ from Germany
Lol change your type. Yes, absolutely. That's what I really wish for her in private life. No more "overly agressive" clowns. The dangerous type didn't work out and never will. A handsome, (down-to earth) grown-up man is a better choice.

Change your type (109,237) by Shezz from Pk
She's basically saying she has a type and that's not going to change. Also I don't think she's taking it that seriously or literally.

Endurance (109,236) by Jamie from UK
Probably because they wanted everything to sound perfect and not jeopardise the launch of MC16.

Change your type (109,235) by Bill from the UK
What I don't get about the song is that she's seemingly bashing all her ex husbands and boyfriends and relenting about how awful they were, to then go on and say she's looking for somebody who's exactly that type? So she's just accepted a life a doomed romances from this point on then? Maybe go for a different type of guy if the last 20 haven't worked out. But who am I.

Joseph Kahn (109,234) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
Ok Mr Kahn is really hyping me up. He doubled down on his initial tweet about the video having an earth shattering surprise, now saying no one can guess it. And then he did another post saying he's using every last second of his deadline to perfect the video and said everyone should cancel their booty calls on Friday haha because we'll be busy watching Type Dangerous. Mimi stop playing with me.

Endurance (109,232) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
The song is a grower and I really like it now. On first listen I wasn't immediately into it but now I play it a lot and even when I'm just sitting around I'll randomly sing "hope I ain't saying too much, I like 'em dangerous" , then I'll randomly belt out "motorcycle man got that Yen for meee" and the last part where she does the "I want someone to step to me oh yes". I'm pumped for this era.

Earth shattering surprise (109,230) by Bobby A from United States
I am elated that MC and her team are really doing everything right this time to launch MC16. They must know what is about to be released is the return of Mariah Carey to the charts. She talks about her Anderson .Paak duet as if it is a hit for sure. In addition to Jack Antonoff, my production wishlist is Ryan Tedder, London On Da Track, Bizness Boi, D'Mile, Babyface, Zatoven, Cirkut, Julian Bunetta (Teddy Swims) Busbee, Dev Hynes, and Walter A. I am predicting a late July to early August release date. Ciara announced her new album, CiCi will drop on August 22nd and Sabrina Carpenter's Mankind will drop on August 29th.

Type Dangerous Billboard stats (109,229) by BFF from United States
Any word on where "Type Dangerous" might end up on the Hot 100 chart? I saw a tweet that mentioned a "Top 80 debut", but that is quite unspecific.

Endurance (109,228) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway
Mariah has [managed] to make a song that I constantly [am] singing in my head, it's infectious. I'm pleased that the song hasn't got a climax with belting, [because] we know that Mariah can't do that anymore, and it would have been impossible for her to [replicate] it live. It seems that she is getting success now with a song that isn't about her voice, but because the song is a real bop. This song is on heavy rotation in my house at the moment, [although] it hasn't cracked the top 100 on iTunes her in Norway yet, but that is no surprise, Norway might be the country where she has had the least success in the world throughout her career.

But what I can't seem to understand, is why couldn't she sing this song live at the BET Awards? It's an easy song for her to sing, it stays almost within one octave of her voice. What is also frustrating, is that she doesn't do a thing to make it seem like she's singing, what is this?

Anywho, so nice to se her getting some success again and widespread attention on social media, I have almost [forgotten] what that feels like as a fan, besides the [annual] Christmas stick. I'm proud to be a fan of Mariah again.

I tried both options - zero results. When I try to register, there is some kind of blockage for Croatia and I can't register. So dumb that they didn't post it on YouTube while everything else is.

Earth shattering surprise (109,223) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
Joseph Kahn said that the T-Dang MV will have an earth shattering surprise. I want y'all to chime in and drop what you think it is? So many possibilities. At this point I think this will be a 2 part video or at least a video that has interwoven storylines like Honey/Heartbreaker because it says "a film by Joseph Kahn" so I don't think that's earth shattering because both have been done by her before (it is however very exciting if she does do one of the 2). Below are some of my guesses:
1) One of the Kardashians is involved.
2) Mariah gets her previous MV men to come back.
3) She gets her exes to make a cameo hahah this will be hilarious.
4) Taylor Swift? Because of the Joseph Kahn mutual friend situation. Now that would be earth shattering but I doubt it.
5) Miss RiRi on the remix?
Ok I tried to go as far fetched as possible with the others except for #1 hahah. So I want to know what you all think.

For the nostalgia (109,222) by Stacey from USA
Taking the nostalgia route is on purpose, calculated. 20 years ago, the whole industry counted MC down for the count. After her public breakdown and ok reception of CB, folks were thinking this is it for MC. Then came TEOM, ILT, and of course WBT. As she said to BW during the Oscar's interviews, "They'll just have to count me back in." I think history is about to repeat itself.

BET Awards (109,221) by jaker20 from US
She looks gorgeous. I'm just happy that Mariah is making music again and collaborating and getting busy and creative. Also she looks really happy, and seems, I don't know, well? I've had a lot of worries about her state lately, and that's all been quash in one night.

BET Awards (109,220) by Jono from USA
I wasn't expecting much from the performance, so it was just fine to me. She looked absolutely stunning though. Bringing back that straight hair from It's Like That was a nice touch. Her acceptance speech was fantastic. She didn't go on a tangent, and loved the "be a diva, be a boss, but be iconic while doing it" line. I'm glad BET finally gave her her flowers.
