How can I get a message to Mariah? (111,745) by Mimi from UK

True. I guess I was just emotional after listening to HFIA and feeling empathy for Mariah about what she has shared with us about the hard times in her life that I just wanted to save her from a potential heartbreak. I will just pray for her as I tend to do. Mariah is no fool and she will know what to do.

Ewww, he's not cute. Lol. I started to warm up to him a bit after seeing him looking so smitten with Mariah when they performed PTS on Jimmy Fallon, but that quickly faded as I learned more about him. I will just pray for Mariah as I usually do and hope everything works out for her.

New video interview: Mariah Carey, Kelly Rowland, and Ravyn Lenae (111,743) by Mimi from UK

I loved it. It was too short though and I wish they would delve more into the song writing process and treat this sit-down like a masterclass.

How can I get a message to Mariah? (111,742) by Mimi from UK

Same. I almost cried feeling sorry for Mariah. I wish I could message Kristoffer Buckle or someone close to her who could give her a heads up. It shouldn't be this hard to get in touch with her people. Anyway, I hope she finds out soon before wasting anymore time with him. I believe he's mostly using her clout and everything that comes with being with someone like Mariah.

Poor Mariah. It's not easy to find love for someone who's as famous and successful like her, especially being a woman. A lot men are insecure about being with women who are more successful, so the men become jealous and resentful even though they're usually the ones approaching these women who are already successful. The same way Nick had a crush on Mariah, but started getting insecure, jealous and resentful of Mariah.

How can I get a message to Mariah? (111,741) by Mimi from UK

I'm shocked that someone of Mariah's stature doesn't have a PI. I found out this information about him quite easily and you're telling me Mariah herself or couldn't run a quick Google search about him or something? Lol.

It's shocking honestly. What's the point of leaving boys like Nick and her other previous men just to get with another boy who cheated on his wife throughout the marriage and has according to sidechicks who are with Anderson been cheating on Mariah since the beginning.

How can I get a message to Mariah? (111,740) by Stacey from USA

Seriously, right? Mariah is 56 years old. She's lived long enough to make mistakes, get things right, and everything in between. I don't worry about her choices. She's a grown woman. At the end of the day, I wish her the best. But I ain't losing sleep over what happens.

Mariah knows what she is doing. This isn't her first rodeo. If its beneficial for them both why not, I would too. I mean he's lowkey cute. And they seem to work well together. And he's also a performer so that's good for her imo. Go get it mama.

How can I get a message to Mariah? (111,738) by Edward from USA

Mariah's probably been with as many men as she has fingers and toes combined, but some folks still insist on treating her like a 14-year old damsel in distress who needs rescuing. Meanwhile, she's a grown, mega-successful, rich, and ridiculously intelligent woman raising teenagers and living her best life. No one trying to "save" little Miss Carey from some evil men could ever walk a mile in her heels, let alone survive her schedule.

Would it be nice if she found a great man to share life with? Sure. But let's not act like she's lost without one. The woman knows exactly what she's doing. When she says, "I'm a bad bitch, but I'm good company," I believe her. The love of her life, whose name we shouldn't mention, has said a thousand times that Mariah is always in control.

At this point, she's earned the right to enjoy some great, no-strings attached, uncomplicated fun between the sheets with whomever she pleases to share her Carey with. She's Mariah effing Carey, she's paid her dues and her taxes.

New video interview: Mariah Carey, Kelly Rowland, and Ravyn Lenae (111,736) by Philipp from Switzerland

Mariah Carey, Kelly Rowland, and Ravyn Lenae are three distinct voices who define R&B today. In the premiere episode of Elle's "Three Generations", the legendary superstar, the global hitmaker, and the trailblazing newcomer sit down for a rare conversation about the journeys that brought them here. Check out the video here.

How can I get a message to Mariah? (111,735) by Bill from the UK

Didn't any of you listen to Mariah's latest album? She's looking for the dangerous type and likes them dangerous. She can easily reel in a sensible, quiet, loyal gentleman who wants to stay out of the limelight and devote himself to her, but he ain't her type. The whole song is her reeling off her terrible ex's, so doubt anything will change. Mariah's no fool and has been burned enough times that she knows what she's getting into. Hopefully she's just in it for companionship and a good time, however temporary they both know it to be.

How can I get a message to Mariah? (111,734) by Lara from Middle East

I have a feeling she's not into deep with him. More like friends with benefits. She might be with him just for the music inspiration. Somehow I feel Mariah is looking for the love but also know the player type and can't be fooled as easily as before.

Ah okay. I also don't trust him at all. As I said before in one post, I was hoping they are just doing music. But then the rumours started, it could be more. Mariah has had enough sorrow in private life. Another cheating man would be the worst. I so wish she would meet at true soul, not another "artist" and playboy.

Mimi needs to hire a PI. No self-respecting person wants to be in a relationship with a cheater.

Maybe MC knows that he could be playing her. I hope one day MC can find a man who will be devoted to her. This video shows MC was so in love with Nick. She hadn't looked that happy in a long long time.

A hit is a hit is a hit (111,730) by T from USA

The bottom line, unless you are the flavor of the month is that the only way to have better than expected album sales is to have a world wide recognized hit. The songs on HFIA are all great, some even say amazing. But there is no world wide recognized hit that made an impact. Mariah's always had hits, the times she didn't were Glitter, Charmbracelet, and Caution. Those are also her lowest sales. So she sold this new album on her name alone, like Taylor Swift.

Anderson .Paak. He is a serial cheater and he cheated on his ex wife. One of his sidechicks confirmed Mariah and him were together before they made it official and said he has cheated on Mariah several times.

Poor Mariah. This man is a total ho and even admits in his music he's a cheater. I wish could give Mariah a heads up, because he's using her.

Numbers (111,728) by Zachariah from Croatia

I think she is not bothered with numbers but I think she made this album as a pure art to get nominated for a Grammy again. She want that recognition and I think she would be happy with that. I wasn't expecting huge numbers and this is just fine. Is someone betraying her? I don't think so. But if it is, I think she would handle it pretty good now.

Grunge album would be a great surprise to release and I bet that it could have give Mariah another number one record. I am sure of it.

Here For It All deluxe / duets (111,727) by Nicky from Jasmine's Sofa

It's been a hot minute since I've posted here. I have so much to say about Here For It All, but I will make separate posts for my review, etc. I would love to see her do an Angel's Advocates inspired concept for the deluxe. Bring in other artists to reimagine these true gems on this amazing project. Here's what it could look like:

Mi - ft. Ariana Grande
As we've seen from their last collaboration, they have much common space and relatability between them. I think this could sonically take the song to another planet. I picture the two of them cruising down the coast in a convertible blasting E=MC2 on the way back to the studio between sessions.

Play This Song- ft. Faith Evans, Eric Benet, and Anderson.Paak
I absolutely love this song as it is, as I do the entire album. But since this song is very specifically about the 2 characters, the only way to keep it on theme is to add the perspective of another couple in a similar emotional dilemma. I would love to hear these voices together. Faith sings from the same emotional tone that this song is set at. Eric Benet would compliment Mariah so well here. 2 new verses and 4 way harmonies.

Type Dangerous - Dealers choice
We have a whole maxi single of collabs for this one already. And I enjoy them all. Maybe Touch The Soul of the People Remix?

Sugar Sweet - ft. Janet Jackson
There was always a question of what type of song would suit the sound of these 2? This is that song. There is space sonically for both of their current sounds in this song. It could potentially be the summer song of the decade if done right.

In Your Feelings - ft. Toni Braxton
Another long awaited duet. This song fits them both so well. Between the lyrical whimsy, the attitude, and the classic aspects it could take this song to astronomical levels honestly.

Nothing Is Impossible - ft. Barbra Streisand
This just makes sense. Barbra would take this already chilling song and bring in even more timeless flow and expansion into it. I could hear it. Diana Ross was another idea for this one.

Confetti & Champagne - ft. Brandy
Sonically, this would just make so much sense. And for those who don't quite get this song, I feel like Brandy would add something to bring it all the way home. This could be a whole 5 minute vibe, especially if Solange was also somehow involved.

I Won't Allow It- ft. Durand Bernarr
As amazing as this song already is, adding Durand would again bring it to a whole new plane and would definitely entice Mariah to lay some fresh vocals on top. Tangents upon tangents. The back and forth alone would be just beyond.

My Love - ft. Maxwell
Another long awaited duet. The 70s vibe is a great fit for both of them vocally. I could see her doing a version of this with Lenny Kravitz. Wait. We also need a whole album of just Lenny and Mariah.

Jesus I Do - ft. The Clark Sisters extended with Kirk Franklin
Just give us the 9 minute version. Go all the way in. This song is so explosive, it could have 3 parts. I want another verse from Mariah and more of the sisters as well, maybe a couple solos.

Here For It All - ft. MaryAnn, Trey, and Teka
Ok this song is a masterpiece. I would leave the first part as is. I would add 3 minutes to the end of the song. MY favorite part of the song is the second half. I would give each of the features their own solo and have Mariah come in between solos to blend and bridge. There is so much emotion to tell here and I think it's the perfect showcase for their vocals. I would love to hear the 4 of them jamming and riffing and vibing together for a drawn out outro until it fades.

The numbers are not matching up (111,726) by Edward from USA

Guess how many copies Barbra Streisand sold in the first week of her latest album? Less than 20K. This is a woman who's had number-one albums in six consecutive decades, with a loyal and dedicated fanbase and highly respected by the general public. Even when she wasn't charting with singles, her albums still debuted at number one. Back in 2014, she moved nearly 200K in her first week, so yes, times have changed and everything fades away.

It happens to every artist eventually. Rihanna isn't as popular as she once was, Ariana's fame is already starting to fade, and she's only about 11 years in the game. Taylor's time will come too. That's just the natural cycle of the music industry.

And that's not counting Mariah out either. Thanks to "AIWFCIY" and her enduring influence on music, she remains remarkably relevant for someone who's been releasing records for 35 years. The fact that "HFIA" had roughly the same first week sales as "Caution", an album released seven years earlier, is no small feat. That deserves to be celebrated.

HFIA sales etc (111,722) by TheWind from England

HFIA is Mariah's best album in years. I never expected her to chart like she did in the 90s, and I think people should lay off the blame game. Mariah has locked in and worked her ass off. She produced a cohesive album, a mature and excellently produced album. Blame Mariah, blame gamma, blame the industry. Do whatever you want, but I'm gonna stay over here and enjoy the best music she has produced in years. I'm proud of Mariah and whether she charts at 1, 4 or 7, that won't change. We know she has done something special, and should basque in that.

HFIA (111,721) by Dove from United States

I love this song but the part where she sings "a kiss where the sun never shines" caught me off guard because I thought that meant, like, kiss my butt. Or something. It didn't match with the rest of the song. So I'm choosing to see it as "even the parts you hide from the world are beautiful to me".

This song is kind of how I feel about the people I love. Including MC.
