Passion (107,819) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter We love a positivity so go RA spread that cheer. I however feel similar to what others mentioned. I think making new music is really at the bottom of her priorities right now, let alone bringing the TEOM energy. It could be that she isn't currently on a label and doesn't want to release a solid body of work until she has logistics in place. She also seems more excited about her biopic rather than an album. We've been hearing she's got 10 songs ready for a while now and she has yet to lay vocals. TEOM Mariah wrote 4 bangers in a span of less than 48 hours. She was hungry back then she had something to prove, I think right now she has fully embraced her "legend" status and "retired until Christmas" status. Music will always be special to her and sometimes her inner Mimi comes out hungry to make a splash that's why she tried jumping on many hot remixes in recent times, but I don't know why she always jumps in by the time the momentum is gone. I will ofcourse always be hungry for new Mariah music so I hope she releases a full body of work soon (unpopular opinion I could not care less about her alt rock album). I would love a collab album with some fresh and current stars especially female artists. (Saturday 21 December 2024; 23:23) this is a reply to message 107,817

Passion (107,817) by Bobby A from United States I feel that she still has the passion for new music. If she did not, MC would not have agreed to collaborate with Latto, Ariana Grande, and Muni Long. She has been trying to get her voice stronger to record an album like she wants to record vocally. (Saturday 21 December 2024; 17:05)

Passion (107,818) by Bobby A from United States I would love a mostly pop record with 3-4 R&B tracks. It would be what she needs to get pop radio and the buying public to pay attention to her new music. It worked for Adele on 25 after 21 was more R&B and soul.

Passion (107,813) by Shezz from Pk I 100% agree with you there Edward. Do you think it's because she has created a lot of music over the last 30 odd years and doesn't have much inspiration or drive to do more or because she knows her new music doesn't sell at all and hence doesn't feel motivated to put new music out any more? I feel she is motivated by success and that's why she puts more of an effort into the Christmas seasons? Does she even have a record label contract currently? I do feel she has one more album left in her and we will get something in the near future. I have a feeling she is still searching for her sound and hasn't created anything that really excites her yet hence when she talks about new music her old excitement isn't there yet. Robert Anthony I hope her next album is more of a fun pop record - ofcourse she will always have her ballads but I wonder if going back to her old formula of a Fantasy/ Heartbreaker/ Loverboy/ Dreamlover etc type of first single release would serve her better?

Passion (107,812) by Edward from USA I hate to rain on your parade, but Mariah's passion for creating new music doesn't seem to be the same as it once was. Even when she talks about it, there's a noticeable lack of the excitement she used to have when she couldn't wait to share what she had been cooking up in the studio. She's far from being in the vibrant "Mimi era" energy. She should team up with some big names like Rihanna, Beyoncé, Ariana and a few others to release a collabo album. It feels like only her core fanbase is eagerly anticipating new music from her. (Saturday 21 December 2024; 01:49)

Passion (107,816) by Libra Lamb from USA I agree with you. She's been counted out several times before and came back with some bangin' music. I think only time will tell and since staying positive doesn't cost anything, I'm right there with you. Mariah still has a lot of great music inside and sooner or later it will be released.

Passion (107,815) by Zachariah from Croatia I don't think is that. She can sing and she can hit the notes. It is hers saturation for creating the new music. She has done it all. (Saturday 21 December 2024; 14:19)

Passion (107,814) by Jamie from UK I personally think it's cause she can't sing it the way she wants too. She was vocal during caution saying that her voice wasn't in the place she wanted for the album. I love the Caution album but I guess from her side she's the perfectionist. (Saturday 21 December 2024; 11:03)

Fortnite game (107,811) by Bobby A from United States Have you seen MC's likeness in Fortnite's Winterfest yet? The graphic designer got her likeness perfect. I like the fact that MC said yes to her likeness being apart of Fortnite's Winterfest. It is just another great treat to continue her holiday dominance. By the way, AIWFCIY's radio spins have increased this week. I think MC has a new manager and team working with her. She hasn't had so many interviews, endorsements, and merchandise/media partnerships in a 3-month period in a long time. Could we be headed into a promotional season similar to TEOM in 2025?

Article: Mariah Carey signs Rihanna's boob (107,810) by Libra Lamb from USA Wow. What a way to end the tour. This is hilarious. I'm glad she got over the flu and hopefully feeling much better (Friday 20 December 2024; 07:43)

Mariah wrapping gifts (107,809) by Libra Lamb from USA Mariah's recent IG post of her wrapping a gift is one of the funniest things she's done lately. The paper wrap is beautiful and so is the bow, but her skills, not so much. It was the worst gift wrapping I've ever seen and she had the audacity to put a bow on it. It was a cute festive moment. I don't think she was acting either. I'm very happy for her success during the holidays, she's a hard working woman and deserves it all. (Friday 20 December 2024; 07:39)

Week 3 (107,808) by Bobby A from United States January 10th would be the perfect day to drop a surprise ballad to capitalize on all of her success this Christmas season. I believe it would do well on the charts. With You was her last Billboard charting single from 2019. Something 10 times better than With You could explode on pop and R&B radio.

Week 3 (107,807) by Edward from USA AIWFCIY has already tied Old Town Road for the most weeks at number one on streaming (20 weeks). If it remains at number one next week, as projected, Mariah Carey would set a new record. She would also be within three weeks of reclaiming the record "One Sweet Day" record.

Week 3 (107,806) by Zachariah from Croatia I think she will release a banger in February and then another banger right before the summer. An album will drop right around in early September. (Thursday 19 December 2024; 14:54) this is a reply to message 107,805

Mariah, Melonie and The Price Sisters (107,804) by Jamie from UK This has given me chills. They were so so good together. Never heard this clip before it's got me extra festive. (Wednesday 18 December 2024; 20:30)

RiRi and Mimi (107,803) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter Rihanna fangirling over Mariah at the NY show and asking for an autograph, Mariah walking down the stage backwards to go sign Rihanna's boobs is giving me life. How iconic. I love that Rihanna is such a stan, I would love to see them collaborate. It'd be really interesting because they have such different styles of music but Mariah is always down to try something new. But Rihanna has basically retired hahah so that might not happen anytime soon. (Wednesday 18 December 2024; 17:06)

Number ones and ... number twos? (107,801) by Randy from USA I've come out of hibernation to share some interesting chart statistics with you. If you kept reading the chart statistics from the most recent article, Billboard compiled the longest running number one and number two pairings. 13 weeks: No. 1, "All I Want for Christmas Is You," Mariah Carey / No. 2, "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree," Brenda Lee (2019-24) 11 weeks: No. 1: "A Bar Song (Tipsy)," Shaboozey / No. 2, "I Had Some Help," Post Malone feat. Morgan Wallen (2024) 11 weeks: No. 1, "One Sweet Day," Mariah Carey & Boyz II Men / No. 2, "Exhale (Shoop Shoop)," Whitney Houston (1995-96) 10 weeks: No. 1, "Lose Yourself," Eminem / No. 2, "Work It," Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott* (2002-03) 9 weeks: No. 1, "Old Town Road," Lil Nas X feat. Billy Ray Cyrus / No. 2, "Bad Guy," Billie Eilish (2019) 9 weeks: No. 1, "Hello," Adele / No. 2, "Sorry," Justin Bieber (2015-16) 9 weeks: No. 1, "Macarena (Bayside Boys Mix)," Los Del Rio / No. 2, "I Love You Always Forever," Donna Lewis* (1996) 9 weeks: No. 1, "Physical," Olivia Newton-John / No. 2, "Waiting for a Girl Like You," Foreigner* (1981-82) Ya'll know I am obsessed with number twos, Ms. Carey having four of her own Can't Let Go, Endless Love, Loverboy and Shake It Off. I love that Whitney was able to do a week at number one and then eleven at number two as currently Exhale is my favorite song by her. Back to my cave. (Tuesday 17 December 2024; 14:33)

Next week's race is tight (107,800) by Shezz from Pk Brenda rebounded to number 1 giving Mariah only 1 week in the middle of her 3 week reign last season but Brenda and the label heavily promoted it for the anniversary.

Next week's race is tight (107,798) by Edward from USA When Brenda hit number one last year, it was only for the first two weeks. As Christmas Day gets closer, Mariah's numbers are way stronger than Brenda's. I'm pretty sure Mariah will stay at the top for a third week, and most likely a fourth week as well.

Next week's race is tight (107,799) by Bobby A from United States There weren't a lot of huge November album releases this year like last year. So, that is probably helping AIW score really big with streams and radio airplay. I think she will be on top at least through the second week of January.

Next week's race is tight (107,797) by Shezz from Pk Talk of the Charts has Mariah at number 1 with a tight 5 point lead over Brenda Lee for next week in its midweek prediction (chart dated 28th December with tracking week ending on 19th December). Let's hope she holds on for a 3rd week at #1. She could possibly have a 4th week as well for the tracking week ending 26th December. If all goes her way, she could get her longest number 1 title back next year - this time solo. (Monday 16 December 2024; 15:59)

Merry Christmas (107,796) by Bobby A from United States Merry Christmas has an impressive list of musicians who played on the album. No wonder Merry Christmas has such a polished sound and production. MC was able to duplicate the polished sound and production slightly on Butterfly. Anyway, I am sure Tommy called each one personally to ask if they would be part of Mariah's Christmas album. His expertise and impressive business sense helped Merry Christmas to become one of the greatest Christmas albums of all time. (Monday 16 December 2024; 00:22)
