My observation (107,979)
by Bobby A from United States
| |
|
|
Did anyone else noticed last year, we became like family to each other? We showed more love and support to each other than in 2023 and 2022. Maybe it is just me. I read so many celebratory and love posts last year from all of us. Let's keep it going in 2025 to support each other around the world, those in L.A. and of course MC. I listen to Coast To Coast with George Noory at night and it just has me thinking more about what is happening everywhere in our world.

California fires (107,976)
by Norman from USA

Yup. It's been craziness over here. My sister and mom had just moved to LA from Minnesota in October and we found them a nice duplex rental in Altadena in December. Well, that's where the Eaton fire is, and this past Wednesday everything they owned burned down with the house. It was wild. They came to stay with me for a couple of days because they were going to have power outages in the area - that was Tuesday night. By Wednesday morning it was all gone. It's been difficult to process and know how to feel.
The main reason my sister moved back with my mom is because my mom has dementia, and most of our family is here in LA. Moving back was seen as good because we'd get to share in her day-to-day care, you know? Now everything's gone. And there are thousands of people without a home. We're blessed that they're still alive and that they could stay with me. A lot of people weren't that fortunate.
Please keep the people of LA in your thoughts. Thank you.

Lambs, this 2014 concert is just amazing. I haven't listened to it for ages. Her voice is crystal clear and you can't tell the little lipped parts apart.

MC sold her Bel Air mansion with Nick in 2015. Her Calabasas chateau has been on and off the market since 2020. I don't know its current status in 2025. Homes in Calabasas have been affected by the Kenneth fire. It is just horrible what has happened to so many people in L.A. My heart goes out to everyone.

Although it is almost impossible for Mariah to ever be shady to Beyoncé, according to this interview where Mariah said her concept was stolen, Beyoncé's album was dropped two months before that.

Refresh my memory please, did Taylor ever drop a demo version for that first? I can't remember, I didn't use to keep up with TS back then. But I remember her name being in the mix along with Beyoncé about who Mariah could be referring to. I know even later down the line people said she copied Mariah's "from the vault" visual. Where originally Mariah did some "from the vault" release and then Taylor used a similar visual for her re-record series? But Covid wiped out my memory so clearly I am missing chunks.

Haha I think even as a lamb that would have been too much for me. It baffles me why a story teller like Mariah has such weak videos. Speaking of JD, I am reminded of the Facebook TAOLG release and how it ended up being the wrong version and Mariah wrote her iconic "I'm on the bathroom floor" meltdown post.

Did you notice that Columbia/Legacy didn't release a CD version like they did Music Box in 2023? To me it says a lot how the AR executives feel about Rainbow compared to Music Box. I would love to have a CD version.

Jarring (107,966)
by Matty from Vancouver Canada

|
|
So, I've been obsessed with my Rainbow 25 vinyl I got from my parents for Christmas. After endless listens, I understand why I've found it such a difficult album to vibe to.
Bliss is one of the best, most fitting, and gorgeous songs MC has ever created. It just fits her and no one else. Then suddenly, without warning, I'm b*tch slapped with that early-oughts Destiny's Child/P!nk beat. I was up in the clouds, floating... suddenly I'm getting hit with a guitar string pick, and a jarring beat. The instrumentation over took a Mariah/Usher collaboration.
That shouldn't have happened. Usher and Mariah both deserved more from their collaboration.

Robert Anthony you are the voice of unwavering optimism on this board and I'm sorry you can't just abandon your role like a Mariah cookie. Yes her business side seems to be pretty ambiguous but we are barely a week into January. She has plenty of time to get her shit together and give us MC16 this fall.
I don't think she's hanging out with Anderson [.Paak] just for us to discuss their chemistry. They are cooking something. Her not having a contract/label is probably the reason we are not hearing much about MC16. She has repeatedly said it is coming. I believe once things fall into place she will be motivated enough to finish it off.

Mariah lost her mind like someone had just swapped her Louis Vuitton heels for a pair of knockoff flip-flops. As if the average listener could actually tell the difference between the version that got released and the one she wanted. But that was the perfectionist version of Mariah minus a pill or two.

Hahah I wonder if ISIL video was an attempt to make a [Breakdown] sequel. It has the similar story setting in Vegas, Mariah's a show girl, she's heartbroken, it's a beat ballad and so on. Although Breakdown song and video remains one of her best to date. I also didn't get the point of her blowing up the car haha. It's all too much. Mariah is an arsonist on the low with setting her car on fire and then her dress in "I Don't".

I don't think I Don't is MC's worst video as you are eluding to it being. Imagine 13 videos of I Stay In Love directed by Nick. I hate that video. I have only seen Daisy Duke travels to Las Vegas, but her car breaks down in the desert one time. Lol. I was not impressed with that video treatment. What were MC and Nick thinking?

I'm not saying it was a horrible video, but it certainly wasn't a good one either. Unless your idea of good visuals is the cliché of a woman prancing around and touching herself in a car. "I Don't" was the last decent standalone track she's released since "Triumphant" though.

Shezz, I am starting think that we will not be getting a new album or single this year. I have had that feeling all week because something just seems off with the whole business side of MC's career. MC has not talked much lately about who her manager is or what label she is on. If an artist is under a recording contract, doesn't he or she has to deliver an album within a certain time frame.

Oh my gosh yes you're right "it's all coming back to me now" hahah. I remember that, and I was thinking wait was MC really going to drop a surprise album like that's ambitious because look I love Mariah and she'll always be my #1 but she didn't have the pull to do a drop like that. Also if it was the other point of a "visual album", did we need 10-15 videos of Mariah looking beautiful and caressing herself hahah. it just didn't make sense to me at that time or even now. Beyonce's project was extremely ambitious and each of her videos were really well thought out (I may not love all of them but they were quite impressive nonetheless). So ya Mariah needs to spill the tea.

At that time, the rumors were heavily hinting at Beyonce. She did two things no mainstream artist had done before: 1. She released an overnight, critically acclaimed, very successful surprise concept album and 2. Every track on that album came with its own video. Nothing else happening in music during that period was significant or relevant enough for Mariah to go on panic mode, confiscating portable electronic devices and putting blinders in the studio.
I was just 10 back then though, so maybe I missed some major events, so don't quote me on it.
