Mariah at Rock in Rio (107,386) by Pedro from Brazil It was an awesome concert, and they say it was her biggest crowd ever. She looked amazing, and her vocals were on point. My only gripe was that it felt short, but I loved how she switched up the setlist a bit and still sang all our favorite songs. In São Paulo, after the show ended and the lights went out, she came back a few minutes later and sang IWKWLI barefoot, catching everyone off guard - even her crew. Some fans had already left and couldn't get back in. I wonder if she planned it or just changed her mind last minute. (Monday 23 September 2024; 13:26)

That stage monitor (107,385) by Brandon from USA Can someone please take that monitor that MC seems to stare at the entire show? No one on her team has told her how distracting it is to see her constantly looking down at it? (Monday 23 September 2024; 06:14)

Rose City Works (107,384) by Bobby A from United States MC has linked a distribution deal with Rose City Works to sell the Merry Christmas 30th anniversary merchandise. MC has really out done herself this time with the MC30 anniversary celebration. There are 8 new vinyl, CD, and cassette Merry Christmas items available to order at: www.Mariahcarey.rosecityworks.com. I am sure the industry's wholesaler leader, Alliance Entertainment, will be allowed to sell some items to our local record shops after they sell out on the Rose City Works website. I am just hoping since I want in my hands one of the 3,000 copies produced Original Master Recording Ultra One-Step vinyl record. (Sunday 22 September 2024; 08:43)

Mariah at Rock in Rio (107,383) by Pedro from Brazil If you're wondering how to watch Mariah at Rock in Rio this Sunday, you can stream it live for free on Globoplay. Just sign up with your Facebook or Google e-mail to create an account. Most of the stuff on there is paid, but the Rock in Rio stream is totally free. I'm really hoping Mariah switches up her setlist, interacts more with the crowd, and doesn't stay so stiff on stage. Cyndi Lauper and Katy Perry killed it last night. Just a heads up, Mariah's concert starts at 10:45 PM Brazil time. (Saturday 21 September 2024; 23:53)

Christmas shows (107,382) by Bobby A from United States Are you feeling that this year's Christmas shows are going to be huge? MC is going to give her all during the 20-date tour. Her vocals lately are sounding amazing. (Saturday 21 September 2024; 23:11)

Made For Me (remix) (107,381) by jaker20 from US I agree, I find myself putting this on loops. This one is a great addition to Mariah's collabs. (Saturday 21 September 2024; 21:52) this is a reply to message 107,363

Made For Me (remix) (107,363) by Billy from Greece I just love it. So addictive. I can't listen to it just one. Still on heavy rotation. Kudos to Muni Long as well. (Wednesday 18 September 2024; 21:56)

Brazil concert (107,380) by jaker20 from US The videos I'm seeing in Twitter looks so much fun. I hope you had a great time. (Saturday 21 September 2024; 21:52) this is a reply to message 107,366

Brazil concert (107,366) by Carlos from Brazil Guys, I am losing my mind thinking in just one day I will see Mariah live for the first time. I feel very blessed and I hope all the Brazilian lambs have the most amazing time. I also think she will deliver a historical performance at Rock in Rio. I will only attend the São Paulo concert. For you guys to see Rock in Rio live it will be available to stream on Globoplay. (Thursday 19 September 2024; 13:21)

Mariah not socialising with the industry (107,379) by Bobby A from United States Mimi has been on a different level since she became a mother to her twins. (Friday 20 September 2024; 22:35) this is a reply to message 107,376

Mariah not socialising with the industry (107,376) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter That is actually not true, there are many photos of Mariah with Diddy post the 90s. Especially around TEOM era they were photographed together a lot including him being on stage with her at one of the TAOM shows. She had also shared in The Meaning of Mariah how Tommy had racist comments about Diddy when Diddy was new and how she defended his artistry when she was asked about it during some kind of gathering. All this doesn't mean she knew what he did and turned a blind eye, she very well could have had a very different experience with him where he wouldn't dare mess with her during the 90s due to Tommy and him being new and after that she was a bigger star than him. So it could be due to her having a different sort of experience with him she didn't know but it's not true that she cut him off after the 90s. A quick Google search will show many photos. [WebmasterL For example, see: Diddy made guest strip naked] (Friday 20 September 2024; 17:16)

Sabrina Carpenter Christmas (107,378) by Bobby A from United States Thank you, Mimi. Taylor Swift's name raises any public figure to new levels. (Friday 20 September 2024; 21:25) this is a reply to message 107,373

Sabrina Carpenter Christmas (107,373) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Her team really put in the work this year, leading with getting her on the Eras tour which got the Swifties behind her. Right before that her 2 songs Nonsense and Feathers were somewhat popular. The Taylor endorsement helped. But she also put out some really catchy, easy to digest pop songs which had throwback good old pop days vibes and almost each song had those viral lyrics like "Espresso" with "I'm working late cause I'm a singer", then "please please please" with "I beg you don't embarrass me MF" which led to so many tiktok reels, and all her videos had very fun replay value. She also has her signature bombshell look down. She basically owned this year haha. I honestly only knew her in passing before she started on the Eras tour. (Friday 20 September 2024; 14:27)

Mariah not socialising with the industry (107,377) by MusicfanJ from Germany Ah okay, thanks for the info. Yes, Mariah was the biggest star with Daydream, plus Tommy, so she was safe compared to new ones or wannabes. I don't remember that part in the book. I need to read it again. I think Tommy was right to protect her, the controlling was too much of course. But which husband would let a pretty young woman alone with rappers or a man with a bad image?

Mariah not socialising with the industry (107,375) by MusicfanJ from Germany That's true. I also believe because Mariah is a smart woman, she decided to stay away from him after 98. Plus the male diva thing is nothing Mariah would tolerate more than once. (Friday 20 September 2024; 17:01)

Mariah not socialising with the industry (107,374) by Tevin from USA I also find it quite interesting (in a good way), that despite Mariah's heavy involvement in the Hip-hop community, after 97-98, you never see her hanging out with Diddy anymore, or doing anymore collaborations (wasn't he being a diva during the Honey remix video?). Something tells me that she may have noticed how he was, or was becoming, and she decided to steer clear. (Friday 20 September 2024; 15:19)

Mariah not socialising with the industry (107,372) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter She didn't go to all maybe but she went to a bunch of Diddy parties including his famous "White Parties". But I'm guessing Diddy was different with Mariah because she was an established artist by then, he preyed on the up and coming. (Friday 20 September 2024; 14:19)

Mariah not socialising with the industry (107,368) by Junaid from United Kingdom With the current scandal, involving a certain someone she worked with on 2 songs from the [Butterfly] and 1 remix from the [Daydream] era, aren't you relieved that Mariah never went to all the parties? (Friday 20 September 2024; 08:08)

Mariah not socialising with the industry (107,371) by MusicfanJ from Germany I don't know. I wondered too. All I can say is that I'm so disgusted about Sean Combs. I used to listen to his music/hits as a teen in the 90ies until 2002. I never thought that he is such a monster like R. Kelly. I was too young and naive. I can't listen to some songs anymore. The "bad boy for life" comes to my mind. Sick people (the rappers) who think just because they have money and some fame they can do what they want.

Sabrina Carpenter Christmas (107,367) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Did you guys see the little teaser video Netflix posted about Sabrina's Christmas special? The video starts from her foot and she's dressed in a Mrs. Claus type outfit, and the camera pans upwards and reveals her face and she says, "Expecting someone else?" Kinda feels like she meant if we were expecting Mariah. And then under a comment about someone saying something about Mariah, Netflix replied with "imagine if they collaborate". Do you guys think Mariah may make a cameo? It'd be fun. Sabrina is fun and quirky and she basically owned this year with back to back bangers. Her song Nonsense reminds me a lot of Ariana-Mariah airy vocals love songs. (Friday 20 September 2024; 00:50)

I hoped this wouldn't happen (107,365) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States Can you share what sources lead you to believe she is in financial turmoil? (Thursday 19 September 2024; 12:49) this is a reply to message 107,353

I hoped this wouldn't happen (107,353) by Brad from USA As a 34 year fan of MC, I had hoped it would never be her who would suffer financial ruin for overspending and mismanagement. She just seemed more diligent about that early in her career. But it seems she is ruined financially and mortgaged to her eyeballs. I know her vanity passive income projects have been a bust. She doesn't have the following or good reputation for stuff like that. Touring is all she can do at this point it seems. She's painted herself into a corner with her finances and diva persona that most folks aren't attracted to. Time for a reincarnation of Mimi. She has to bring something new to the masses to reinvent and renew her commercial viability. (Tuesday 17 September 2024; 02:30)

Industry problems vs. waning radio airplay (107,362) by Bobby A from United States MC is in the same club as other R&B artists like Brandy, Eric Benet, Trey Songz, Keyshia Cole, Monica, Toni Braxton, and Robin Thicke. They all have not released an album since their last albums were not huge sellers and with waning radio airplay. So is it a music industry problem for older R&B artists or radio programmers just don't cater to older R&B artists anymore? All eight artists could release an album today and it would be better than what Urban AC radio is playing on the radio today by these new young artists. (Wednesday 18 September 2024; 10:20)
