I don’t see how this It’s a Wrap challenge helps Mariah.. I mean the song is so auto tuned that you can barely tell it’s Mariah..

I think I missed this at the time, but regardless it's worth a revisit!
Also, this is nice from Sony:

Lol uh Jennifer Lopez says hello, Mariah coming after her (multiple times) is one of the most famous memes ever To be fair she didn't just shade her out the blue. We including you know why she did. Of course I know, but to say Mariah never came after anyone publicly is like, not even close to the truth. Mariah was shading JLo since the Rainbow era, all even through the MIAM era, that’s over 20 years of public shading! 😂 She also initiated the feud with Nicki publicly. I was just correcting sundaymornjnguy statement

Everyone else is seeing resurgence with old, inferior songs. Why not Mariah with an actual quality song!?

Also, did we acknowledge this?
"I Want to Know What Love Is" will pass 200 million views fairly soon. That will be her 13th video to hit that mark.

Clearly you gotta be a legend with real talent to do this.

I’m glad overall for the songs on Memoirs receiving their due. It’s a great album that deserves its flowers.
I think the only other songs in her back catalog that could have just as strong of a viral reaction that haven’t been released are Faded and Make It Look Good. Make It Look Good has that similar vibe of It’s a Wrap. 8th Grade in the right scenario could pull off a good viral moment.

If Mariah can release a banger 1st single whenever her ass decided to grace us with an album her streaming service numbers are in better shape in 2023 as opposed to 2014 and 2018 era. Maybe she can get a 80k first week plus as opposed to the 54/58k opening with Caution.
But it ain't about numbers for me I just want quality music and new material it's been too long Mimi!

I would LIVE for an intimate venue tour with an aesthetic like the WBT Late Night Valentine's Mix wardrobe and vibe.

I rarely revisit The Elusive Chanteuse but the highlight songs (including this one) are fantastic. To me "Make It Look Good" is definitely a standout track and is as good as many of her classic singles. Surprisingly, I initially didn't like Memoirs but It has become one of my most played Mariah albums as a whole. It's a very cohesive album imo and I love its overall sound.

Maybe one day it can get certified Gold. This account has been reliable but I cant verify the facts.

For my own curiosity, I wonder how many units of the #MC30 vinyls were pressed and sold.
Separately, my wish for a viral moment is "I'm That Chick" from E=MC2. I could see that making waves on TikTok.
Also it's my personal pick for shoulda-been-second-single over Bye Bye.

^ Mimi’s tan, her ensemble, the way she says “this is my song!” when that heavenly MIL beat drops, Mary Ann being in the background… everything in that clip is just… 🫠😍😍😍

It’s odd watching these clips from the early 2000s knowing back then I thought: “gosh she sounds good but not as good as she used to”— now watching today, she sounds amazing and wish I had appreciated all performances like I do now. 2. Mariah’s covers are deploy personal to her; she loves these songs, from MIL to Bringin On The Heartbreak. She’s got great and varied taste in music.

Would you guys want Mariah to collaborate with a relevant artist like Bad Bunny or Scissors? I can’t think of anyone current I’d want her to colaborate with for a hit other than Tori Kelly…

I can’t think of anyone current I’d want her to colaborate with for a hit other than Tori Kelly… I think Bad Bunny could be cool as I actually think their styles could mesh well. There are plenty of people I'd love to see her collaborate with (Janet, Maxwell, H.E.R.), but if we're talking for the purposes of getting a hit that limits it (and for what it's worth I don't see a collaboration with Tori Kelly being a hit). The moment has passed, but I do think something along the lines of the proposed "A No No" with Cardi B and Lil Kim could be a hit now that we see all of these older songs becoming hits. I would have loved to have seen that one, regardless. I do think Bruno Mars and Mariah could make a great song together. Meanwhile, I found this interesting; the past month of Mariah's Youtube audience: Top cities (past 28 days)1. São Paulo 1.72M views 2. Bangkok 1.63M views 3. Quezon City 1.59M views 4. New York 1.42M views 5. Los Angeles 1.25M views 6. London 1.12M views 7. Manila 865K views 8. Chicago 828K views 9. Rio de Janeiro 824K views 10. Paris 782K views
