About Lambi from USA: Mc 4 life

One Heart, One Voice (109,590) by Lambi from USA Thankfully, my name's already short and no, I've never had any beef with anyone named Eric. I've called out the webmaster in the past for butchering my statements and unknowingly taking me out of context, but that's just the journalist in me. To his credit though, he's gotten way better since then. I've also spoken up about bias and the lack of space for people to defend themselves. That kind of atmosphere is why people end up leaving. It might be just a fan site, but it parallels how people leave countries like China, Russia, and Iran over free speech issues. The stakes are obviously different, but essentially the principle is the same. I felt it's an important issue to be aware of before completely pushing a lot of lambs away. At the core though, we all just love MC passionately. Most conflicts eventually blow over. I've buried the hatchet with you by the way, lamb. Hope you have a great day.

One Heart, One Voice (109,585) by Edward from USA Eric is the webmaster, my dear. Proceed with extreme "Caution". The last person who crossed him woke up in Indiana with no memory of how they got there. Others, like Bobby A, weren’t so lucky, they came back with shorter names. (Thursday 3 July 2025; 17:35)

One Heart, One Voice (109,584) by Lambi from USA I don't recall reprimanding an Eric but that doesn't mean I didn't. Bobby A, solid. Mimi L, impeccable. TJ, good. Zachariah, very good. Sascha, also very good. And Edward, you've been good too. You may now exhale (but I'm watching all of you). (Thursday 3 July 2025; 16:56) this is a reply to message 109,581

One Heart, One Voice (109,581) by Edward from USA What are you complaining about? Eric was also reprimanded. Now I'm nervous, only Bobby A is safe. (Thursday 3 July 2025; 12:32)

One Heart, One Voice (109,576) by Lambi from USA Okay so you're basically webmaster or at least a close buddy of him. No one is allowed to have a rebuttal and must be silenced because webmaster is biased. (Thursday 3 July 2025; 02:48) this is a reply to message 109,571

One Heart, One Voice (109,571) by Bill from the UK Lol. (Wednesday 2 July 2025; 19:33)

One Heart, One Voice (109,565) by Lambi from USA Appreciate the mediating spirit Bobby A. You are truly a godsend. Keep it up. Everyone's allowed to have opinions of course but everyone is also responsible for their opinions. The lesson here is you can't just say ridiculous things and expect not to be called out on it. It's good to be the adult in the room to snap toddlers back to reality. Therefore members aren't just spewing disrespectful unhinged remarks like, "Her voice is so shot us board members probably sing Hero better than her now." Words have meaning and a reprimand was warranted. (Wednesday 2 July 2025; 05:44) this is a reply to message 109,560

One Heart, One Voice (109,560) by Bobby A from United States We are family. Sometimes we may not agree with another board member's opinions or comments. We all care about MC and her career. Let's get ready to experience the new era and get MC back on top. The unveiling of the album title and second single is going to be huge in the coming weeks. The anticipation is higher than any Mariah Carey album ever before. Let's put our differences aside and get ready for this era. (Tuesday 1 July 2025; 17:23)

One Heart, One Voice (109,552) by Lambi from USA That is funny. I pressed you on this before but you ran away and hibernated. Let me recap what you said, verbatim: "Mariah's voice being damaged beyond repair to the point that a number of us unprofessionals on this board can probably sing 'Hero' better than she can and with no lipping." "A number of us" so you've appointed yourself a part of some imaginary choir of amateurs who can outsing one of the most technically revered vocalists in music history. Tremendously bold claim. Since you said this your chest, you at least must be a willing representative of the group to back it up, right? So let's just hear it. Debunk my insinuation that you're out of touch. If you're confident enough to dismiss quite literally the greatest vocalist of all time, a quick vocal clip should be a walk in the park. Or are you just going to go on hibernation again?

One Heart, One Voice (109,548) by Bill from the UK What on earth are you talking about? (Monday 30 June 2025; 21:46)

Three voices, one problem (109,541) by Lambi from USA Yup, agreed. It definitely wasn't an organic collaboration. She just played the part of the singer, kind of like when they'd hand a song over to Celine. She probably had little to no interaction with him, just followed the demo's key as accurately as possible, and quickly paid her respects to Barbra. (Monday 30 June 2025; 06:13) this is a reply to message 109,533

Three voices, one problem (109,533) by Edward from USA Lyrics got written, music was produced and then a demo was made. Barbra most likely recorded the entire song by herself. Then, the parts that Ariana and Mariah were meant to sing were stripped from the demo and sent for them to fill in the blanks. Of course the original demo was also sent to use as reference. Then, Walter later stitched it all together. So no, these ladies were never in the studio at the same time. It's pretty standard these days and even easier with technology. Mariah prefers laying her vocals alone with her recording engineer. Ariana lays her vocals in a completely dark booth. Could this be considered as a Mariah and Walter collabo? No, in my humble opinion. In 99% of their collabos, Mariah wrote the lyrics and had the melody in her head, then Walter would put that melody into music and produced it. (Sunday 29 June 2025; 21:19)

Living like Babs because it's evergreen (109,532) by Lambi from USA Every single artist on this Barbra album is simply paying homage to her. She was a part of their growing up, and they really didn't care that it was cheesy. I know Mariah doesn't acknowledge time, but aging is real, and biology is real. Barbra nearing 90 should signal to you that she really doesn't have much time left and when her time comes, they'll all say, "I'm so glad I said yes to that." So let's just leave it at that. No need to nitpick and trash it up. It's such a godsend that she's able to live a long life making music. I pray to God Mariah gets to bow out as beautifully and is blessed with the same graceful exit. (Sunday 29 June 2025; 19:51)

One Heart, One Voice (109,530) by Lambi from USA Right, and people are allowed to defend their bold claims as well so where is your raw, unfiltered Hero performance? No filter, no effects. Just your voice proving us "unprofessionals" really out sing Mariah today. You talked pretty big so I was really hoping to hear your vocal cords shine. (Sunday 29 June 2025; 18:50) this is a reply to message 109,525

One Heart, One Voice (109,525) by Bill from the UK Oh, chill out for once. People are allowed to have an opinion and express it. The song is banal and bland, and Mariah doesn't sound good. The only good thing to come out of it, for me, is that the book can now finally be closed on Mariah and Walter teaming up again. They had their day in the sun. I would take the songs on Emotions, Music Box, Daydream and Butterfly over any further paint-by-numbers triteness such as this. (Sunday 29 June 2025; 11:23)

One Heart, One Voice (109,519) by Lambi from USA One, Mariah didn't write it. Two, the song is not bad considering 80% of the board here profess their liking to it, it was truly well received. Three, it's really more about Mariah being able to have a special moment with another late diva, Barbra. Aretha already passed and she never got to record anything in the studio with MC. Patricia Carey already passed and I bet you Mariah wishes she did more projects with her. With this context, it should inform you that this collaboration hold some weight for MC. Like your common sense should actually come on. And saying, "it's not a song that needed to be written" should ring to be unbelievably disrespectful and unbelievably tone-deaf. Are you just deluded with your "music taste" superiority that you thought that was okay to say? It is grandma music but like literally Barbra is nearing 90 years old. What the hell else did you expect? Also what is up with lambs being like this? "Go on and attack me." It's like they ruthlessly attack someone's artistry and then they get a warranted response and suddenly they're the ones being "attacked". The level of derangement is actually so comedic at this point. Stop gaslighting us. (Saturday 28 June 2025; 23:44) this is a reply to message 109,512

One Heart, One Voice (109,512) by Randy from USA It's not that I am against something wholesome. The song is just bad. When you look at Mariah duets, Mariah and Boyz II Men, Mariah and Dru Hill, Mariah and Busta, Mariah and Whitney. This song is not on any of those level. When you look at Mariah songs about hope, Hero, Anytime You Need A Friend, Can't Take That Away, Through The Rain, Fly Like A Bird. This song is not on any of those level. Mariah's bar for a duet or a song of hope is so high she can't just release anything and expect we get behind it. You fine with mediocre? Go on, celebrate, jump up and down, attack me. It's not going to make the song inch closer to what she's capable of. In addition, I have an attitude with songs that say a lot but don't say anything. Ima write one for you right now. There's a chance to win. If you look within. Find strength to fight. It'll all be alright. There's a universal truth. You should've learned from youth. If you would just hear it. You can't crush the human spirit. Pretty good huh? Ima pitch it to Miley Cyrus, Sabrina Carpenter and Stevie Nicks for the next multi-generation song. (Saturday 28 June 2025; 05:17)

One Heart, One Voice (109,508) by Lambi from USA "It's not a song that didn't need to be written." Okay so since we already have My All, why did Mariah have to write After Tonight and I Only Wanted? We already have so much heartbreak records. "One of the songs sung before a Super Bowl national anthem with young girls from around the world tryna count steps with lame choreography." Literally what's wrong with that? That's every family gathering and every Sunday church service. That's literally okay. Family suited songs are okay. Songs that can be sung around children are okay. Perhaps you were upset because you were abruptly awakened, but it might have been better to leave the phone alone for a while and let the mood settle. This is where lambs lose and are just objectively annoying. Mariah does something with a legend and it's actually quite wholesome. Probably special because she made a friend out of Ari and it's obviously a big deal since she was willing to disregard all beef with Walter just to honor Barbra's invite and some lambs just have to ruin it. We can't have anything nice and wholesome. (Friday 27 June 2025; 22:57) this is a reply to message 109,495

One Heart, One Voice (109,495) by Randy from USA I don't like it. Here's the thing. I knew it would be a ballad from the 90s. I knew it would feel "crowded". And I do think it's genius how he interchanged them throughout the verses. I am a Mariah Carey fan and what's most important to me is a lyric. Then the vocal. Then the arrangement. The lyrics are both banal and generic. It's not a song that needed to be written. It's been written before. I feel as though this is one of the songs sung before a Super Bowl national anthem with young girls from around the world tryna count steps with lame choreography. It belongs at the end of a really bad movie where the credits are more entertaining than the plot. My favorite person on this board woke me up out my sleep with a text for this? It's just Another Trite Hope Song rackin my brain like crazy. (Friday 27 June 2025; 16:40)

What's your thoughts? (109,461) by Lambi from USA It's a decent song but very forgettable for Mariah's standard. It will fall in the same category as Triumphant, Infinity and GTFO. And to be terribly frank, it didn't deserve that high budget of a video. However, it is great to see Mariah flex her wealth knowing how many people come for her money. It's her way of making them feel dirt poor. Still nonetheless very excited for the rest of the album. I can not wait to hear the Gospel record. Or maybe we will get another "Sunflower For Alfred Roy" moment, dedicated to her mother. And I absolutely cannot wait to hear what she cooked up with Anderson .Paak.

What's your thoughts? (109,456) by Tevin from USA Now that the hype for TD has cold off, what is everyone's thoughts on the single? Personally I think it was a fun song and I hope it makes it on MC 16 and doesn't get regulated to buzz single status. I do think one mistake that was made with the song was the fact that Mariah broke her code of making her songs ambiguous. Songs like Obsessed and ILT was clearly referencing situations in Mariah's life, but lyrically the GP could connect and relate in their own way to the song. Where in TD whether real or fiction, the lyrics was about Mariah Mariah Mariah. The presentation was to immature for older listeners, while the call backs and references flew right over younger listeners heads. To be honest, it's a good song but if I wasn't a Mariah Carey fan, I could care less what type of love interests she is interested in. That's why I think its failing with the GP. I'm sure Mariah has even better songs coming. I just hope she has something that is relatable to the GP. Something that's catchy and simple, yet has depth to it, to appeal to all listeners. What are you thoughts on TD? (Tuesday 24 June 2025; 19:06)

In Occam's razor (109,450) by Lambi from USA The song is flopping because it is simply not good. The free market will always tell you. Still, we should give Mariah a round of applause for reinvigorating her career. Amazing effort on revitalization, just happened to be the wrong single to invest in. Left turn on single choice but right turn on a career move. We see the effort and I am pretty damn certain she got something up her sleeve. We still all should revel on this moment. Have a great day Lambily. (Tuesday 24 June 2025; 00:12)

It's tii-iime - for Team Mariah to accept that the U.S. is no longer her primary market (109,449) by Lambi from USA Baby had solid ideas, it's fresh and made perfect sense. With your logic, does winter always mean Christmas? Australia, Brazil, South Africa, Mexico, The Philippines, New Zealand - all experience hot humid Christmases. Have you not thought of that? (Monday 23 June 2025; 22:56) this is a reply to message 109,440

It's tii-iime - for Team Mariah to accept that the U.S. is no longer her primary market (109,440) by Zachariah from Croatia I don't know. With that logic, she should release a Christmas song right now because it is winter there and just keep pretending that it is Christmas time. (Monday 23 June 2025; 15:06)

Tommy Motola (109,189) by Lambi from USA Yeah, it's sad. Nick was clearly the greatest love of her life. Their love ran so deep it produced children. It's actually really sad how love unfolded for Mariah. She saved her virginity for marriage, which shows how much she genuinely values the commitment of the union and building a stable home. You can tell she always longed for something sacred and lasting, not just for herself but for her kids too. I think a slight resentment towards Nick will always hover. She gave him quite literally everything and more, upgraded his lifestyle, carried his twins, took care of him when he was sick and then he turned around and fathered kids with anyone willing, like a bottomless degenerate. In a perfect world, I wish she would've ended up with someone truly faith-based and lowkey, maybe a successful, grounded entrepreneur who doesn't crave the spotlight and actually loves and pursues Jesus. (Sunday 8 June 2025; 23:15) this is a reply to message 109,179

Tommy Motola (109,179) by Bobby A from United States Fair. Maybe that was the last time she will mention Tommy in one of her songs. We have to admit that MC has never had a long lasting relationship with any of the men she had been married to or dated. I think that the holiday get together has stopped with Nick and the twins as well. (Sunday 8 June 2025; 13:34)

7 years (109,169) by Lambi from USA Thank you, Mara, I really appreciate it, lamb. And absolutely, feel free to talk about anything here. A lot of the lambs have evolved mentally, we're way past just nose job and ensemble discussions. People are so entitled they assume everything on the internet need to be catered to them. But the truth is, many of us are interested in deeper things now, especially because, like you said, Mariah's in a whole different league. She's in that legendary category with MJ, Prince, and Whitney. And we all know how they exited life. With your shout out, I can finally say that people appreciate my deep dives organically, not because I created fake accounts to hype myself up, like some out-of-touch folks have insinuated here. (Who even has time to fake likes?) But yeah, I've seen those clips too. Smear campaigns are real, it's a thing of the mafia. And with this major new deal Mariah just signed, I can't help but wonder is what's the catch? (Sunday 8 June 2025; 02:34) this is a reply to message 109,070

7 years (109,070) by Mara from United States I'm so excited for midnight. I can't believe we are finally getting a new studio album. We've been saying MC16 for a long time now and I don't think any of us expected this roll out. Everyone was all wrapped up in Mimi's 20th anniversary and then thinking about the Barbara [sic] song with Walter that is so exciting, let alone this. Mariah looks fierce in these promo shots. Especially the red lip and darker hair shot. I wonder when they were taken. Someone said this was recorded last June which would be before her tremendous loss. I am excited to hear Anderson's influence on this track and the album. He has some interesting and funky songs and I'm excited to hear where Mariah goes with this sound. I love the drum part of the song right before the clip cuts out. It sounds like a sample of something but I can't place which one. Looking forward to reading everyone's thoughts tomorrow. On another note, Lambi I tend to agree with you and worry about Mariah and what they do to people of her status especially when it involves money. I noticed a lot of M's past with a clownish blond rapper has surfaced a bit online again and Damizza is back at it again talking about things around that very hard time for all of us especially Mariah. Who knows the real truth with all that. I just pray for her daily and to keep her safe and healthy and for her children as well. This industry is not all that people think it is with the glitz and glamour I'm sure. It's got to suck a lot out of you. Don't mean to make this a downer message. Cannot wait for new music and hear where she is at creativity at the moment. (Friday 6 June 2025; 04:25)

Confirmed: Mariah is making history (109,150) by Lambi from USA I always thought Shake It Off should've been released much later. They didn't really realize how monstrous We Belong Together was going to be. It ended up staying at the top for a lot longer than anyone probably expected. What's crazy though is how Gen Z brought Obsessed back to life. Had Mariah pushed the promotion to the extremes it could've been her 19th #1. It's A Wrap is also another one, it became clear that the song had a lot more potential than people gave it credit for, it deserved way more attention. But my biggest bummer will always be A No No. Such a great '90s homage, and the way she mirrored the beginning of the chorus with TLC's "No Scrubs" was genius. Perfect ear candy. But the label let it fade to oblivion. Such a freaking shame. I was hoping they'd finally do her right after they let With You flop. It's like they missed the mark at every turn. (Saturday 7 June 2025; 13:58) this is a reply to message 109,135

Confirmed: Mariah is making history (109,135) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Agreed. The saddest one is SIO. That song is perfection, was sexy, fierce, clever lyrics, catchy chorus, top notch video, Mariah's revenge era confidence and so much more I'll forever be upset that it didn't get to be #1. Obsessed is another one. It was ahead of its time, it's so viral on TikTok and with the younger generation. Loverboy too was ahead of its time. The pop-y retro style is so in right now, Sabrina Carpenter has her whole aesthetic wrapped around that style. Problem with Mariah she's ahead of times and people only later realize how her songwriting was always 10 steps ahead of the music industry. (Friday 6 June 2025; 22:50)

TD press tour (109,149) by Lambi from USA It almost feels like Mariah is told not to rumble as she is a known rumbler, possibly because speaking at length might reveal cognitive decline. She keeps her answers short, which creates awkward silences that the interviewers scramble to fill. She has literally never been this bad at interviews. I understand it's early in the morning, but it's hard not to notice how little she's giving. It's actually uncomfortable to watch. The interviewers, on the other hand, were clearly trying to make the conversation interesting, despite the challenge. They're obviously not the biggest lambs but they were warm and did their best to work with what they know about Mariah. But it's tough when you're not getting much in return. Referencing this interview by the way. I can still defend Mariah's past quirky moments - like "I don't know where the mf is" or "back up darling, you're killing me softly" or "I bet I don't like this game" LMAO. Even the "no no no no no well you don't wanna hear about 9/11" had its charm. But these recent interviews? It's getting harder and harder to defend. Mariah gurl, what is wrong? (Saturday 7 June 2025; 13:17) this is a reply to message 109,144

TD press tour (109,144) by Shezz from Pk I noticed yesterday watching some radio interview clips - her energy and enthusiasm varies quite a bit depending on the interviewer. She was very animated and enthusiastic for a couple and totally disinterested in the others. If she knows you, has a history with you and you know about her music and black culture, she will be way more relaxed and open. Just an observation, to most of the white interviewers she was a little cold and reserved. Maybe it was just a coincidence that she was not too familiar with them. Anyone else noticed this? I mean I don't blame her - not everyone can fake enthusiasm for small talk with strangers, but if you're out there promoting your music, wanting them to play your songs, you have to present a friendly front. Or don't go to the ones you don't feel warmly about. (Saturday 7 June 2025; 09:32)

Confirmed: Mariah is making history (109,133) by Lambi from USA "Mariah would wake up and openly call out war on The Beatles." LMAO, Mimi, gurl you're so funny. But honestly, I'd be mad too if I were her. She kept putting out bangers after bangers post Touch My Body, but her series of management just didn't know how to handle it. They really didn't do her justice. At this point, she should have like 25 number ones, including pre-TMB. (Friday 6 June 2025; 22:23) this is a reply to message 109,129

Confirmed: Mariah is making history (109,129) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Who would have thought one fine day in June 2025 Mariah would wake up and choose violence and openly call out war on The Beatles. I'm ready for the slay. Thank God we're off the sleigh for now. (Friday 6 June 2025; 21:15)

Confirmed: Mariah is making history (109,106) by Lambi from USA Have you guys seen this? Mariah is making major moves. Long article, I broke it down so you don't have to: - Mariah Carey is teaming up with Larry Jackson's indie music company, Gamma, instead of a big record label. - She sees this as a way to control her story and create music on her own terms. - L.A. Reid will executive-produce her new album through his company, Mega. - They've signed a multi-album deal aiming to make music history. - Mariah's goal is to get her 20th number-one hit to tie The Beatles' record and then go beyond that. - The partnership was announced in June during Black Music Month to highlight its importance. - Reid says this is a win-win, with both Mariah and Larry working to stay fresh and relevant in today's music scene. Mariah really looked at a $400 million company and said, "Okay let's get festive"? She's retiring as the greatest of all time lambily. This is so exciting. #1 to infinity indeed. (Friday 6 June 2025; 14:33)

Can you handle this? I don't know (109,101) by Lambi from USA Totally, she could just have fun with the video. Reusing old clips is such a trend now. It'd be genius if she tied it all back to her past: "Motorcycle man had a yen for me" - that's the Japanese guy from Boy I Need You. "Computer boy toy" - same energy as the nerd from Touch My Body. "Construction guy moving pounds in custom" - clearly a nod to Wentworth Miller, the structural engineer from Prison Break. It'd be funny, iconic, and super nostalgic, fans would eat it up.

Can you handle this? I don't know (109,084) by Tyler from United States The references in the song should all be nostalgic throwbacks in the music video. Motor cycle man. Hmm. That music video has been making rounds on social media lately. The computer guy. Who that be? Lol. Construction guy, not sure on that one though. Maybe I'm off but that's what they should do. Catchy song. (Friday 6 June 2025; 08:19)

Type Dangerous (109,100) by Lambi from USA That's fair, it definitely has a harder edge than GTFO, and I think it's because Mariah's clearly flexing here - "certified diamonds like a song I wrote" is a wild line - but honestly, the song feels like something that was originally scrapped and is now being reworked, kind of like what she did with Save The Day. I heard hints of Thirsty, Standing O, and Inseparable, and the chorus feels more like a string of adlibs that eventually became the hook. It's not her strongest work, but I really like her attitude in it, very Obsessed energy. Still, imagine if A No No had this kind of hype behind it pre-release? It would have been game over for The Beatles. (Friday 6 June 2025; 13:28) this is a reply to message 109,098

Type Dangerous (109,098) by BFF from United States This definitely hits harder than "GTFO" from Caution. I love the Eric B. and Rakim sample, and I love the sassy send ups of Tommy, Nick, and company. It's not quite on the level of "#Beautiful" with Miguel, but it definitely feels fresh and current. I haven't really listened to much current music recently, so I do not know where it fits in the current pop ecosystem. I know we cannot focus on getting a hit, but I'd really love to see Mariah unseat The Beatles. (Friday 6 June 2025; 12:47)

Type: Dangerous (109,073) by Lambi from USA Amazing production and a hot beat, but definitely far from "It's Like That". It's mid, but a solid fire-starter. Seems like it's meant to be a lighthearted moment. Has anyone put the pieces together yet? Who are the guys she's talking about? (Friday 6 June 2025; 06:16) this is a reply to message 109,063

Type: Dangerous (109,063) by Bobby A from United States Lambs have been crazy all day on X. I haven't seen Lambs this hyped since ILT and TEOM dropped 20 years ago. I have written down several things different about the start of this era. This is not GTFO or I Don't. Something feels different about Type Dangerous to start the new era. 1. MC took her time releasing new music despite pressure from Lambs for 4 years. 2. Anderson .Paak inspired MC in the studio. 3. For the first time ever, MC used a previous album to launch a new album. She was so clever with her date hint that we missed that a new era would be starting on that date. Genius MC. 4. MC took control of launching her new era instead of her new label. We found out three days later that gamma. is her new label from Lambs posting presaving Type Dangerous screenshots. I suspect a gamma. official annoucement will come tomorrow. 5. MC stepped out of her comfort zone for this era by working with new producers, songwriters, artists, and mending an old relationship with Walter A. This era doesn't feel like JD will be involved, but I wouldn't be mad if he had a couple of songs on MC16. However, I don't think we will hear "Y'all know what this is" on MC16. 6. This will be MC's first summer album release since her debut album. Just another reminder of a full circle era is starting tomorrow. (Friday 6 June 2025; 01:31)

Financial terrorism (109,057) by Lambi from USA I could say the same thing about your little alcoholism theory, but I don't. I simply scroll away because I don't find it interesting. I hope you find that balance too, darling. (Thursday 5 June 2025; 18:57) this is a reply to message 109,046

Financial terrorism (109,046) by Jamie from UK Sounds like another conspiracy theory to me. (Thursday 5 June 2025; 14:44)

Financial terrorism (109,044) by Lambi from USA Thank you, darling - I truly appreciate your response. I do try to stay aware of what's happening. I'm not trying to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but I genuinely believe Morgan is a plant, and we should be cautious. He's shown time and again that he'll do just about anything for a quick payout. Mariah is at a stage in her career where her success is not only undeniable - it's powerful. She confirmed a couple of years ago that she owns all of her masters: 86 singles and 15 studio albums, dating back to 1990. That level of ownership is incredibly rare, especially for someone who's not just the voice, but also the writer and producer. She's earning real revenue from her catalog, and that kind of power makes her a threat to certain people. We've seen a similar pattern before. When Michael Jackson began acquiring ownership of his music - and even the rights to other artists' catalogs - it triggered serious pushback from powerful forces. It wasn't subtle, and it wasn't fair. I wouldn't be surprised if Mariah ends up facing similar tactics. It's something we should all be paying close attention to.

Financial terrorism (109,030) by Norman from USA I'd totally forgotten this was going on. That you for the recap and keeping tabs on it. Morgan has been on this revenge tour of his for eons. You'd think he'd learn to make his own way in life. No one pays attention to him outside of who he's related to, so he could go unnoticed and unbothered if he chose to. Instead, here he is keeping his name spotlight-adjacent for people to side-eye him. Anyways, I'm excited for the new song. (Wednesday 4 June 2025; 21:28)

New music (109,041) by Lambi from USA Honestly, I agree. This feels like déjà vu - very reminiscent of when Infinity and GTFO dropped. It seems like Mariah just needed to put something out. From that leaked audio, the melody isn't really hitting. But I genuinely hope I'm wrong and end up eating my words. I can't make a full judgment until I hear the entire track. Even if it turns out to be just okay and not the standout from the album, I'm truly just happy she's making music again - and that she seems excited about her career.

New music (109,039) by Joachim Agerup Løkkevik from Norway I'm so excited for new music, the wait has been long. I like the snippets, but I don't really feel it as a single, feel it could be played at a lounge, it feels more like background music to create a vibe, so my hopes for another hit is not great. But what I have read about people's music habits, is that a lot of streaming use is as background music, so maybe there's hope. (Thursday 5 June 2025; 12:00)
