Tids and bits (39,519) by nikki from usa From what I've heard TAOLG is supposed to be a ballad. No, MC's not cheating, I'm feeling extra presumptuous when tabloids start talking based off of nothing more than, "Look, she's not wearing her wedding ring, they must be getting a divorce." It's not like she broke her arm or anything where inflammation or pain killers could cause swelling. I love how the National Inquirer's headline is them divorcing on the same day Mariah tweets herself half unwrapped for Nick's birthday. Call me paranoid, but all these "guys" MC is supposed to be cheating with are guys she's worked with while single. She didn't hookup with them then, so we're to believe she waited until she was married with kids and then decided to throw everything away? Not even the tabloids foresaw MC and Nick dating, let alone marrying. So, really how good are their "inside sources"? They've been predicting their demise ever since. The tabloids are ticked. But, it's their own fault for referring to the voices inside their heads as "sources". Anyone else stuck on the part, "not just tabloid rumors, legitimate sources too, tabloids and otherwise"? I wonder if the other legitimate sources are whatchamacallit or thingumabob. (Saturday 19 October 2013; 6:19)

Rock and a hard place (39,518) by Stacey from USA It wad nice to see Walter A. speak so highly of MC even after all these years. You can only imagine the tough spot he was in during Tommy and Mariah's breakup. He loves working with MC, but is employed by Sony. Tough spot. I do hope they work together again and let the past stay where it belongs. On a side note, I think My All sounds perfect. I think strings would have taken away from the raw emotion of the song.

Manny (39,517) by enwar00 from usa Rodney Jerkins produced So Lonely, the One And Only part 2 remix off the Mimi platinum edition. When she blew up hard core in 2005 that was one of almost 10 songs off that album they played on the radio here in Chicago. Not sure if she and Rodney did anything else together that didn't end up on her albums. (Saturday 19 October 2013; 0:39)

Hope Street (39,516) by lil star from untied states What ever happened to the rumoured single "Hope Street"? Does anyone know if it's planed to make the album? When they described it, I was really interested to hear it. "This isn't cheesy rent-a-rapper Mariah who squeals every note possible. It is awesome, experimental, and sounds like a Joni Mitchell record on steroids. Mariah uses the lower register of her voice to an amazing effect," and "Apparently, Mariah is tired of trying to appeal to teenagers and has made an album that is heartfelt, personal and very artistic." It sounds like a song hardcore fans have been waiting for. But that was so long ago and I'm sure the album has made many changes since then. I'm just hopping we get to hear this song and a lot of the songs recorded during this time period. (Friday 18 October 2013; 19:40)

Rodney Jerkins (39,515) by Manny from U.S. Mariah mentioned she worked with Rodney before. I can't remember which song/ album. Can anyone help me out? What do you guys think of this collaboration? Mariah sounds passionate and ecstatic over the new song. I'm wondering if it'll be an uptempo or slower song. (Friday 18 October 2013; 19:21)

Emotions / Walter A / Letting Go (39,514) by RadChad from United States I must be in the minority, because Emotions was actually my favorite album for the longest time (during the Daydream era up until after Rainbow). There's not one bad song on that album, truly a masterpiece. I know I'm late, but it was good hearing the real story (from the horses mouth) of how MC and Walter's working relationship ended. I appreciate how highly he spoke of MC and how shut ol dude down when he was kinda trying it with MC. Had him explaining himself and everything, I bet if Walter had joined in and didn't nicely get him together he would've taken his down talk a little further. Walter shut that down quick, he still has our girl's back. If they haven't secretly already worked together on this album (which I believe they did) then io definitely think they will, it's not too late. I hate wanting a huge period of time to move by quickly, because I believe in enjoying everyday like it's your last. However I always find myself doing this with Mariah's new music. I just hope it really exceeds all our expectations and truly blow us away. (Friday 18 October 2013; 18:37)

Which? (39,513) by OGmattyICE from US Which co-performer do you think Mariah has "clicked" with better: Trey Lorenz or Jermaine Dupri? Food for thought. (Friday 18 October 2013; 18:19)

Emotions (39,512) by Stacey from USA That album just shows what an amazing voice MC has. Some of the notes she hits on Emotions and even Make It Happen are simply phenomenal. Even she was surprised Civiles and Cole could get her to sing that high. Till the End Of Time has got to be one of my top 5 ballads. The emotional intensity of that song is unmatched. (Friday 18 October 2013; 18:13)

Emotions (39,511) by Martyn from England, UK I totally agree about Emotions. "Till The End of Time" is my all time favourite Mariah song. Such an underrated track. I love how intense it gets after the middle 8, and the slow fade out at the end. It's just heavenly! (Friday 18 October 2013; 14:25)

Emotions (39,510) by Sasha from Nomansland A great album! I'd love her to make an album with the same intensity and maturity in the lyrics and in the emotions. (Friday 18 October 2013; 11:33)

Mariah Carey cheating with Jeezy (39,509) by Cheryl Jones from American I hate this. This got to be a lie. Mariah Carey has a beautiful family. I just think they want someone to pick on. Well she shouldn't be the one. Maybe she forgot to put her wedding ring on. 40 something is the age where you start forgetting. I hate this because I don't like noone lying on my sister. So Mariah Carey, don't let them worry you, I know you have a very busy life because you don't get to read and answer all your facebook messages. I have about three you didn't answer. Love you always sister. (Friday 18 October 2013; 11:28)

Emotions (39,508) by David from Australia Out of all MC's albums, that took me the longest to appreciate. I realize the beauty of it now, though. Phenomenal. (Friday 18 October 2013; 2:26)

Underrated (39,507) by enwar00 from usa Does anyone think Emotions is Mimi's most underrated album? (Friday 18 October 2013; 1:54)

Lee (39,506) by RibbonB from USA That rumor has been around for months on various blogs. The reason it hasnt "spread" is because it's just silly and most people ignore it. Any time MC poses in the studio with a guy, rumors tend to start. MC got much more press and funny comments for her boob selfie to Nick for his birthday. (Thursday 17 October 2013; 23:39)

This new era (39,505) by Will from Australia I'm excited about the new single and hopefully the album drops soon after. I am also a bit weary about getting too optimistic, as in the past few years Mariah has talked up a lot of her new songs and they've just been average - Triumphant, Bring It On Home, Almost Home and Beautiful. I hope she stays away from auto tune as there was way too much of that on Memoirs and limits those whispery vocals to 2 or 3 individual songs rather than switching into it in parts on every track. This record is so huge for her. (Thursday 17 October 2013; 22:18)

Eric (39,504) by Will from England Wow, that's such a beautiful song! This is kinda how I hope Mariah's version will sound, lyrically and musically. (Thursday 17 October 2013; 21:22)

The Art Of Letting Go - Mikaila (39,503) by Webmaster Eric from the Netherlands "The art of letting go" is also a song by Mikaila. It was a bonus track on the Japanese release of her self-titled debut album. (Thursday 17 October 2013; 20:41)

Coincidence (39,502) by Lee from UK It's funny how these cheating rumours have begun shortly before a single release. Now I'm not saying these rumours are being started by Mariah's team as a way of keeping her name in the news ahead of a big release, but it is a coincidence. (Thursday 17 October 2013; 20:17)

Matt (39,501) by Will from England I meant as singles lol. (Thursday 17 October 2013; 19:14)

Marissa (39,500) by Randy from USA I'm with you. I could care less about a single. She's released three in the last 12 months. I want an album. I tend to like the songs on the albums better than the singles. In addition, record companies are not releasing albums unless the single is hot and I don't want a lackluster chart performance due to the juvenile state of music lovers that contribute to retail and radio to push the album back again. And I've warned this board once, stop beating up on Memoirs. Or else! (Thursday 17 October 2013; 18:35)

Will (39,499) by OGmattyICE from US Don't forget Music Box. (Thursday 17 October 2013; 17:07)

Do you believe that Young Jeezy crap? (39,498) by Lee from USA Does she have the time to cheat with the kids, new album, etc? I swear they make up things to drag her name through the mud. But then again, J Lo is pretty much done with her man anyways, so the bloggers don't want to see Mimi happy if their darling isn't. Hell, the last time we saw her with Jeezy was months ago. Nick was not jealous when he responded to it, he probably laughed it off. (Thursday 17 October 2013; 16:08)

New album (39,497) by David from Australia I hope there are some powerful ballads on this album that may go down as classics for MC fans, something which Memoirs lacked for me. The songs are good, but there's not a single song I think is a classic on that album. I liked the fun stuff as well, but there was too much of it on Memoirs. I'd like a good mix of fun and serious songs like Charmbracelet or Emancipation. I also hope she keeps that ghetto talk she's been using constantly throughout the last two albums to a minimum and uses correct wording and sentence structure in lyrics. I know I'll love the album either way and so far everything sounds promising. I'm excited to hear the new single. (Thursday 17 October 2013; 12:39)

These stories / title single (39,496) by Will from England I'd love to know how where they get these stories from. They're getting more and more ridiculous. Am I right in saying that she's only ever released three title singles from albums of the same name? Emotions, Butterfly and TAOLG (if the album title hasn't changed since it was leaked). On the same subject, this single sounds like her most complicated on yet. To me, it's on the same level of TEOM. (Thursday 17 October 2013; 11:44)

New album (39,495) by OGmattyICE from US I remember she had originally talked about including one of the American Idol contestants on her album or something of that nature. Is that plan still in effect? Does anyone know? I know she switched up her plan after the injury so at this point I'm just excited for whatever is coming. Mariah is a true professional at what she does, so I will never doubt her. (Thursday 17 October 2013; 6:56)
