About Bobby A from United States: I have been a Lamb since 1990. I know Mariah. I love her music. I breathe her music.

Muni Long (112,564) by Bobby A from United States Bill, I forgot to mention the songs Muni Long co-wrote with MC. Their first collaboration is your favorite song Crapfinity. A No No is their second collaboration. Muni Long provides the background vocals and the laughter on A No No. (Sunday 30 November 2025; 21:25) this is a reply to message 112,558

Muni Long (112,558) by Bobby A from United States Hi Bill. It was in 2009 Priscillia Renea released her album, Jukebox. After that she spent a decade writing songs for other artists. She released her second album Colored in 2018 and it didn't do anything. She became increasingly frustrated that her solo career was not going anywhere. So, she signed to Def Jam Records and changed her name to Muni Long. Her first Def Jam release as Muni Long was Hrs. and Hrs. on November 19, 2021. R&B radio and listeners went crazy about the song during the 2021 holiday season. TikTok videos were made by fans and at the top of 2022, it exploded on the Hot 100 chart. It was a certified hit with every R&B and pop listener on Valentine's Day. That is the Muni Long story and why she's popular today. (Sunday 30 November 2025; 13:41)

Muni Long (112,557) by Bill from the UK Am I the only one here who has no idea who or what Muni Long is? (Sunday 30 November 2025; 12:18)

Prince (112,545) by Bobby A from United States Muni Long's net worth is only about 1.5 to 2 million. She has a long way to go to catch up to MC's net worth of 300 million. (Saturday 29 November 2025; 12:12) this is a reply to message 112,544

Prince (112,544) by Lambi from USA Remember when he told Mariah, "I like Honey" and she was like, "I get it, don't sing your songs." She didn't take it as an insult; she just kept it respectful. She didn't react immaturely the way Muni did with such a cut-throat skit, which really can't be perceived as anything other than utter disrespect. That's the difference between them. Mariah just gets it. She was only 27/28 then, yet she was already so emotionally mature. Especially compared to Muni at 37. That was full-on mean-girl energy, and completely unnecessary. I don't think I'll see Muni in the same light ever again. (Saturday 29 November 2025; 11:59)

Caution (112,536) by Bobby A from United States Today I have placed Caution on the same level as TEOM. It is just a feel good party record that you can play over and over again. I hope MC is rushed to record MC17 because she produces a party record when she is focused and pressured to put her music out there. (Thursday 27 November 2025; 23:18)

Muni Long what? (112,534) by Bobby A from United States Maybe it is, Alexis. It was just a random thought while I watched Dex Dexter leave my apartment. Lol. It could happen next year because MC is long overdue reuniting with Tricky and The-Dream. Muni Long's writing partner, Ben Parris being apart of the writing session would be icing on the cake.

Muni Long what? (112,528) by Alexis Carrington-Colby from United States What an asinine idea. (Wednesday 26 November 2025; 20:23)

Muni Long what? (112,531) by Bobby A from United States It is going around social media that MC is not happy. I think she should rewrite A No No that the two wrote together with new lyrics about an ex-friend who went too far. She should remove Muni Long's voice and laughter from A No No. (Thursday 27 November 2025; 00:28) this is a reply to message 112,525

Muni Long what? (112,525) by BFF from United States The thing is, Mariah wasn't rude to Muni Long and didn't say anything negative about her. That shot of her at the awards show during the tribute was taken out of context and was soon after her mother and sister passed away. Mariah was clearly out of sorts, was trying to put on her best game face, and had no idea what she looked like on camera. She even thanked both Muni Long and Tori Kelly during her acceptance speech. Mariah saying she doesn't like people covering her songs after the fact is not a diss. It doesn't necessarily mean she thinks Muni Long did a bad job. Maybe she doesn't like people covering her songs because it puts her on the spot to "say something nice" regardless of the quality of the cover? Muni Long knew exactly what she was doing and got the reaction/outcome she wanted. Too bad that she's so insecure that she cannot have the focus be on her talent alone. (Wednesday 26 November 2025; 14:10)

Muni Long what? (112,523) by Bobby A from United States I would say that MC shoud fly down to Atlanta in January to work on a song with Tricky, Ben Parris, and Terius Gesteelde-diamant just for fun of it. Who knows what the writers of Delulu will come up with in the studio? Maybe something better than Delulu. I do miss the vibe of Memoirs that The-Dream and Tricky gave MC.

Muni Long what? (112,518) by MusicfanJ from Germany Muni Long seems like a typical "young" wannabe. If Mariah hadn't done this one song with her, I wouldn't know who she is. She is totally unknown here. Maybe some teens know her. Her voice is okay, but nothing special. I wish Mariah had done a song with Toni Braxton, Sade or Jessie Ware. Women with class and way more power. (Tuesday 25 November 2025; 17:31)

Muni Long what? (112,516) by Bobby A from United States Muni Long is known to throw shade at other artists. She threw shade at the R&B singer Lyfe Jennings about his classic song, Must Be Nice sounding resentful and bitter and not appreciative back in August. That is Lyfe's most popular song that everyone still loves today. Muni Long shading him came out of nowhere. Muni Long must have been writing her song Delulu back in August. Anyway, I just wanted to give some context to as to why now Muni Long would throw shade about comments MC made during a GQ magazine. Muni Long likes throwing shade for her own benefit. She is trying to promote her song Delulu because it has yet to debut on the Mediabase Urban AC radio chart. Her instagram shade video was not warranted for an artist who has always sang praises about Muni Long since her 2018 Colored album when she was Priscilla Renea. I don't know if I am a fan of Muni Long now. (Tuesday 25 November 2025; 13:24) this is a reply to message 112,500

Muni Long what? (112,500) by Shezz from Pk I can't believe Mariah would be in on this. Muni is being dragged on social media for it. Whatever Mariah said in GQ, misunderstanding his question was no disrespect compared to this. Bobby A you're a Muni Long fan. Thoughts? (Tuesday 25 November 2025; 04:34)

2005 (112,481) by Bobby A from United States I think he couldn't reinvent MC's career now being out of her life for so long. MC needs an up and coming business-minded CEO to manage her career. The music business is really challenging for a lot of R&B artists right now because they have managers who are not marketing the whole artist anymore. Their mindset today is to release a couple of singles for streaming success and then drop the album one year later hoping for huge album numbers. Summer Walker's Finally Over It is really suffering from this business strategy. (Monday 24 November 2025; 12:52) this is a reply to message 112,480

2005 (112,480) by Dove from United States A part of me wishes Benny Medina was still a big part of Mariah’s team. (Monday 24 November 2025; 05:58)

Some say that's tough (112,478) by Bobby A from United States Lambi was trying to figure it out too on October 1st . I think HFIA was recorded in multiple parts over 3 years and that part was the best take. So, MC decided to include Daniel's hot mic part. (Monday 24 November 2025; 02:00) this is a reply to message 112,477

Some say that's tough (112,477) by Edward from USA While listening to "Here For It All", I noticed a brief distortion that sounds like a sped-up, slightly warped male voice, almost the way a CD glitches for a split second. At first I thought it was just my copy, but I checked the YouTube lyric video and the distortion is there as well. It happens right after she finishes the line: "Some say that's tough." And for some reason, once I heard it, I can't unhear it. Every time I listen, it jumps out at me. Can any of you hear it as well? Do you think it's intentional, part of the production, or does it sound like someone saying something in the background? If you can make out what that brief sound/voice might be, I'd love to know. If you can't hear it, I think it's time for me to check my meds and get them right. (Monday 24 November 2025; 01:18)

A lukewarm reception and a seven year absence (112,468) by Bobby A from United States You know it is funny that MC has been really quiet on social media since her "It's Time" video. Her Las Vegas Christmas shows begin November 28 and she has not promoted it at all. And it was reported across multiple social media websites and ABC news that she is worried that AIWFCiY may underperform this year. Do you think MC is feeling the effects of HFIA's lukewarm sales and chart performance? Caution and its singles were still on everyone's mind for at least 6 months after the album's release. I am sure Gamma has already formally reduced MC's contract payout to get back the label's negative overhead cost for HFIA's low sales numbers. A seven year absence and the wrong choice of producers may be what caused HFIA's lukewarm sales reception. Could AiWFCIY's popularity lose its hold after this year?

A little life update (112,449) by Bobby A from United States Mimi, congratulations to you and your husband. I am so happy for you. God bless. (Thursday 20 November 2025; 14:39) this is a reply to message 112,447

A little life update (112,447) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter I wanted to share some good news with my little MCA family, it's also the reason I've been MIA mostly the past few months. My husband and I are expecting our first baby, a little baby girl. You best believe she will be introduced to Mariah really early on so we will have a baby lamb joining the lambily soon. Who knows down the line Eric may have a new member join this board haha. Keep us in your thoughts and prayers. Promise I won't be influenced by Nick Cannon's baby names. (Thursday 20 November 2025; 12:44)

Bruno Mars' midas touch (112,444) by Bobby A from United States Maybe this is my one correct prediction. Lol. I can hear Bruno's verse and riffs taking IYF to another level. We will see in January. (Wednesday 19 November 2025; 18:39) this is a reply to message 112,439

Bruno Mars' midas touch (112,439) by Giovanni from USA Sorry Bobby I love you but your predictions don't usually come to light. (Wednesday 19 November 2025; 05:55)

Mariah Carey: mailing address (112,438) by Bobby A from United States Allen Grubman, her business attorney, has law firm address at 152 W 57th, 31st Floor, New York, NY 10019. (Wednesday 19 November 2025; 01:27) this is a reply to message 112,434

Mariah Carey: mailing address (112,434) by SHANNON ELAINE SMITH from United States Happy Holidays. I am looking to send some fan mail to Mariah Carey. Does anyone have a mailing address where I can contact her at. Can you guys help me out. I have her newest album "Here for it all". (Wednesday 19 November 2025; 00:49)

Bruno Mars' midas touch (112,433) by Bobby A from United States It just came to my mind this evening remembering when Bruno Mars was the male version of Taylor Swift in 2013. Everything he releases becomes a Hot 100 hit. I am predicting if it is true that he jumped on the IYF remix, MC will finally get a post 2009 top 5 pop hit, multiple Grammy nominations, and a Spotify playlist deal in 2026. (Wednesday 19 November 2025; 00:22)

Yours (112,417) by Bobby A from United States We will never hear Yours until JT is no longer recording for RCA. (Sunday 16 November 2025; 20:29) this is a reply to message 112,411

Yours (112,411) by Lambi from USA I wonder why JT's version was never released? I actually think he's vocally good and definitely a formative collaborator. (Sunday 16 November 2025; 09:58)

Summer Walker (112,408) by Bobby A from United States Summer Walker samples ABMB on her song Baby with Chris Brown. It is so good. The Atlanta sound shines on this one. (Saturday 15 November 2025; 23:16)

Bruno (112,407) by Bobby A from United States Bruno Mars would sound good on IYF. I hope the rumor floating around on social media is true that they will perform the remix on the Grammys in January. (Saturday 15 November 2025; 23:13) this is a reply to message 112,396

Bruno (112,396) by Giovanni from USA Apparently there's a rumor that Bruno might be doing a female collab with a so called "great singer". Could be anyone but I'm really hoping it's MC. There are plenty of great singers as of now but none hold a candle to Mariah. (Saturday 15 November 2025; 10:48)

Damizza won't stop vomiting untruths (112,393) by Bobby A from United States I wish he would stop talking too. I hope he is not ever mentioned in a Mariah Carey biopic movie. Just omit Damizza when it comes time for the Glitter and Rainbow eras. Replace him with MC collaborating with Brian Garten and Snoop Dogg during the recording of Cry-Baby. (Saturday 15 November 2025; 05:51) this is a reply to message 112,390

Damizza won't stop vomiting untruths (112,390) by Randy from USA I saw this and cursed out my phone. This never happened. Like MC once said, what would that sound like, I sing and she does something else. I totally don't believe it and I wish he'd get a life or a career besides discussing a woman he hasn't seen or talked to in 20+ years. Dirtball. Every time he talks I feel the need to bathe in some sudsy ammonia. I hope he's not on the hand. (Friday 14 November 2025; 21:16)

Monroe's post (112,391) by Bobby A from United States Monroe's Instagram post that she has only one brother tells the true story about how she feels about her father having so many other children by other women. (Saturday 15 November 2025; 00:16)

Alzheimer's (112,378) by Bobby A from United States I miss one day not posting and someone said that he or she was taking a break. Lol. I am back today. (Thursday 13 November 2025; 01:15) this is a reply to message 112,375

Alzheimer's (112,375) by Edward from USA He was taking a break from his previous name. (Wednesday 12 November 2025; 23:57)

Here comes the hotstepper (112,352) by Bobby A from United States I bet there is a Sony Spotify and Lifetime Christmas movie feature deal this year. (Wednesday 12 November 2025; 00:47) this is a reply to message 112,348

Here comes the hotstepper (112,348) by Edward from USA Last Christmas also re-enteres the Hot 100, but at #43. Brenda is nowhere on the chart. So it looks like "LC" is the song that will be competing with Mariah for the #1 spot, at least for a week. Once Mariah breaks and sets the new record, I wouldn't mind them having a week at #1. They deserve it. (Tuesday 11 November 2025; 21:39)

It's coming (112,351) by Bobby A from United States I am so excited. This is the year for AIWFCIY and MC. (Wednesday 12 November 2025; 00:43) this is a reply to message 112,346

It's coming (112,346) by Edward from USA It's official, "All I Want For Christmas Is You" has re-entered the Billbaord Hot 100 at #31. (Tuesday 11 November 2025; 20:18)

HFIA review (112,325) by Bobby A from United States I miss MC's vocal acrobatics too. It is something that you looked forward to in a Mariah Carey song. My only question is now is how MC can improve her voice to at least get it back to the E=MC2 era. Her range is still there, but she doesn't have the strength and stamina to do the vocal acrobatics effortlessly. Her recent performance of PTS on the Tonight Show and the slight note change she did during the performance is a prime example of her vocal restraint. 90's MC would have done all types of riffs and runs with that performance.

HFIA review (112,318) by Xavier mariohmix from Spain My quick review (better late than never): overall I like it very much. It's new, but, at the same time, it's got classic Mariah and a little bit of everything (to my delight). Just like she told us, it's an eclectic album. The one thing that I miss really much: the vocal acrobatics. They started to fade away on the Caution album, and now that's a fact. However, the artistry is intact and evolving, her real virtue. Right after the release, I didn't want to listen to the album more that once a day. But lately, the number has increased. It's a real pity this kind of music doesn't have a global impact like it used to. Anyway, we're here for it all. Hugs. (Saturday 8 November 2025; 23:07)

HFIA review (112,322) by Bobby A from United States Do you think Gamma was disappointed in the sales numbers and the lackluster public reaction to PTS? The only way MC is going to even come close to at least Memoirs sales numbers is to release a duets jazz or covers album. Her pop days of hit singles and albums are over with. Maybe she should pattern her next album with how Rod Stewart revitalized his career after his rock and pop success days ended. (Sunday 9 November 2025; 17:11) this is a reply to message 112,319

HFIA review (112,319) by Edward from USA I miss the vocal acrobatics too. "HFIA", unlike "Caution", still has some great vocal moments, not as showy, but definitely there. Mariah's whistle register sounds a bit thicker now, and I actually love the smoky tone of her voice on this album. She doesn't go all out, but her vocals remain steady and smooth throughout. smoky, buttery, and effortless. What more could we ask for? As I said, "HFIA" would be a beautiful goodbye album if she ever decided to stop releasing new music. Still, I have a feeling she'll put out another album in a couple of years. At this point, I think it's dawned on her that the longer she waits, the less she sells, and the more people disconnect. (Sunday 9 November 2025; 03:35)
