That Ariana tweet is very reminiscent of a Koochie fan post during the Trump years before Ayesha Erotica showed up to steal hearts and angel dust. It is in our hearts to forgive!

Too bad Mariah didn’t work on the sample clearance for ‘When I Feel It’ in time for E=MC2’s album. It would’ve made the perfect song to bridge both albums together. It’s got the vibe of TEOM but the uptempo-ness Of Einstein. Could’ve easily replaced Love Story or Last Kiss.

Some audiobooks are phoned in b/c the main goal is to expand the audience to people who don't really care to or don't have the patience to read a book in its entirety. But with her audiobook, you can tell there was a real effort help elevate the material. It's a great supplement to the book.

It's deeply personal and informative without being trashy or salacious. It made me respect her so much more as a songwriter, artist, and person and unlocked more of her discography for me.

Remember Jerry Blair? The music exec/manager that actually stood by Mariah's side during the dark Tommy years and breakdown. He was instrumental in the Charmbracelet era but then she ditched him before TEOM (probably at the advice of Benny Medina and LA Reid). Who could blame her, what was about to happen next was monumental. Then in 2007 he tried to sue her... this article is nuts: www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/gossip/cash-carey-mariah-owes-sez-manager-article-1.241846After reading the book I love going back to her Columbia days and reading about the people who she surrounded herself at the time. A little about Jerry Blair: While at Columbia, Jerry served as the Executive Vice President for the label and personally oversaw the career development of music superstars Mariah Carey, The Fugees, Destiny's Child and Jessica Simpson. He additionally rejuvenated Aerosmith's career by pairing the group up with Diane Warren. The result was, "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing," Aerosmith's first single to top the charts at #1. He orchestrated the promotional and marketing campaigns of legendary artists Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel which resulted in bringing some of the greatest grossing record sales and concert tours in their careers. Mr. Blair was the catalyst of the Latin pop explosion by launching Ricky Martin's U.S. career. Starting with his show-stopping performance at the 1999 Grammys to "Livin' La Vida Loca" skyrocketing to #1 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart, Blair's foresight opened the door for numerous other Latin artists, including Shakira, Marc Anthony, Jennifer Lopez and Enrique Iglesias to crossover into the English market. He was later hired to serve as the Executive Vice President at Arista Records. There he was instrumental in developing the careers of Usher, Outkast, Pink and Dido. Pink's debut album, "Can't Take Me Home," produced three massive radio hits which went top 10 in the US, driving domestic sales of over two million and more than five million dollars worldwide. Mr. Blair went on to re-launch the career of Mariah Carey as her partner in Monarc Music. He secured a worldwide distribution deal with Universal Music for Carey which resulted in enabling her to re-capture her place among the top selling pop charts and concert tours and to maintain her current success. Continually respected industry wide as a leading multi-cultured music-promoter and lifestyle-marketer specialist, Blair has created another superstar with Mika, who he signed. As a result of his management, Mika received a Grammy nomination and in 2007 was the number one selling new artist selling more than six million units worldwide and he continues to enjoy his consistent position at the top of the charts as a multi-platinum artist around the world.

The insertion of the word “old” is giving me Katy Perry “good for a throwback” vibes and I am NOT here for it. His career can now flop like Katy’s for all I care, so that’s that on that.

I mean do you, but Mariah's hasn't anything close to a new hit in nearly 8 years, and she hasn't had a top 10 hit in over 11 years. She isn't exactly current. That's just reality.

I don't interpret his comment as shady at all. Katy came across shady with her comments because it seemed like she was looking for a reaction/meme-able moment by throwing some "diva" shade on TV. Mariah herself has done it too.. thankfully she's seemed to move on from that.

From late 1990 or so, Mariah praises "I Want to Know What Love Is" here:

He should cover a Mariah song. Maybe something like “Boy (I Need You)” would suit him. Or “Dreamlover,” since he seems to prefer old-school MC!
