About Lighty from China: Been a Mariah fan since 1994.

Re: Correct, you didn't think (93,355) (93,358) by Lighty from China I used the term "appear" because, first of all, China didn't intentionally create that virus and then whether it's caused by China or not is still hung in doubt. You may wanna watch this video where this Italian doctor stating that symptoms of the coronavirus were reported back in December or as early as November in Italy where in China the first report was in late December. I'm not trying to find an excuse, and yes, our local government tried to hide the fact (but failed at last) and it caused thousands of deaths in China, and the whole nation is blaming them, too. I just hope you could read more information before making a final conclusion. And if you still stick to your opinion, then fine. I never said anything nasty to you so I'm really disappointed that you need to directly say something like "**** you" to me. If that's a common western manner, I get it.

Re: I never thought (93,346) (93,348) by Lighty from China Scroll down to message No. 93,336 and try telling me again no one said **** China. (Sunday 22 March 2020; 16:48)

Re: Correct, you didn't think (93,345) (93,347) by Lighty from China The fact that the virus first appeared in China is indeed, a fact. I never denied that. "But one thing is for sure: we should ban all flights from that country forever. And not trade one single grain of rice with them. Forever." is what I consider the part that's racist. If the first infected patient is a black person, and you say something like "we should ban all flights from taking black passengers", you know what you'll be facing with.

I never thought (93,342) by Lighty from China That some of the most racist comments I'd ever read would show up here, on a messageboard of my favorite artist. I could just assume that most of you have never been to China, even once. You might think that Chinese culture allow people to kill wild animals and eat them, but all I can say is that before this virus became a thing, most Chinese people don't even know bats could be eaten. As of now, 3267 Chinese people died from this virus and we suffered much more than you could ever imagine. It really breaks my heart to see someone on this board would loudly shout out something like "[censored] China". But all I can say to everyone on this board is, please do stay at home as much as possible, I hope you all safe and sound. And to some certain people, the more you curse us, the more you're blessing us, but still, I wish you well. (Sunday 22 March 2020; 05:04)

Re: We Belong Together (92,927) (92,933) by Lighty from China I think there's no doubt Mariah could create another great ballad like WBT. It's just that a "hit" doesn't depend solely on songwriting. A great video, solid marketing with radio/tv/streaming, etc., good promotion including collaboration with platforms (twitter/tiktok/youtube) are all factors in making a hit.

By far (85,082) by Lighty from China I love all three new songs we've heard. GTFO > The Distance > With You. Here is hoping that the song she did with Busta last year would be included on Caution. (Friday 19 October 2018; 04:12)

Official website (80,336) by Lighty from China Mariah looks gorgeous at GG. The new team is absolutely doing a very good job. But I noticed on thing they seem to have missed is that since Stella was fired, Mariah's official website also stopped updating. The latest news was posted on November 24, which was more than one month ago. Though maybe very few people are still visiting the site, it's still an important official platform of hers. Somebody tell Mariah's new team to do something about this. (Tuesday 9 January 2018; 11:59)

Re: Oh the insanity (57,673) (57,683) by Lighty from China Hey Andrew from UK, You may wanna go and check out WBT live on BET Blueprint, whole thing live. (Saturday 7 November 2015; 5:45)

This is my life since I last left off (42,879) by Lighty from China After waiting five years between albums, Mariah Carey finally explains the personal struggle behind her all-at-once digital release, from that Idol debacle ("bamboozled") to a need for "uplifting" music: "It's all been a blur."

Management problem (41,863) by Lighty from China I find it interesting that Mariah's best era in the 2000s is when she was managed by Benny Medina (October 2003 - September 2008), which is the TEOM plus early E=MC2 era. After she fired Benny, her career started to wreck again. She really needs someone as powerful as Benny, not just some friends of hers, to bring her back to the top again.
