Yeah someone likely compiled that list from one of the all-time albums charts Billboard released.
Meanwhile, I think this is referring to "Emotions" but what's it about?

I figured out he works for Entertainment Tonight, so maybe it's some unreleased footage from back then.

Couldn't agree more, bat1990 . Glad to see some appreciation for "I'm Your Baby Tonight" too. The likes of "Anymore", "Lover For Life", and "I'm Knockin" almost feel like missed single opportunities, something you'd never hear me say for the deep cuts from her first two albums (actually, shout-out to her cover of "For The Love Of You" on "Whitney" - so beautiful and smooth). Admittedly, it does help I'm more into late 80s-early 90s new jack swing + R&B than mid-80s ballads + dance pop. Back on Mariah, the tweet shared by jenglisbe is really intriguing. I'm hoping for some behind-the-scenes footage with Mariah showcasing her songwriting, production, and vocal layering skills, and possibly exclusive interview snippets on her creative process. At least that's the impression I'm getting from the screenshots. Very exciting, indeed. I actually totally forgot 2021 marks 30 years of "Emotions" and its eponymous album. What an underrated project! "To Be Around You", "The Wind", "If It's Over", the vocal tour-de-force that is "You're So Cold"... 😍

Maybe her recent foray into the vault provided other cool surprises like interviews and never before seen projects.

The only verzuz R. Kelly is gonna be a part of is New York v Robert Sylvester Kelly.
Not that it will ever happen, but Janet is the only option IMO. I think it would be a weird show, because they're so different musically. But she's the only female R&B/Pop artist with enough iconic hits to take her on. I would drop dead.

Looks like Mariah kept to her word when she said she would make her own ornament this year:
They are available for pre-order at Walmart for anyone interested.

I actually like that ornament - I don't care for the stuffed Mariah though. In general, her merchandise isn't really my taste.

Daaaang every time I see the trailer for that Ryan Reynolds movie and I hear “Fantasy” it’s like it’s my first listen to the song. What a pop masterpiece. And it was done in 1995!! Mariah really has a GIFT. Then you hear The Weeknd’s newest single and wonder what if she was paired up with a beast like Max Martin… You’re basically guaranteed radio perfect, pop bliss. Of course Mariah on her own, without someone big label executive orchestrating such a team-up, wouldn’t even fathom a Max Martin collaboration. *sigh*

I remain curious to hear what MC and MM would come up with in the studio. I know she doesn't really do "dance" (except for remixes) but his work with The Weeknd is truly stellar, and not exactly bubblegum pop, so I'm down for them to try something.

I still kind of maintain while yes it would be interesting to hear what a Mariah and Max Martin collaboration would entail, I think Mariah is very much an artist who has to see it in order to want to collaborate. I think the sell for collaborating with certain writers and producers is much harder than others where Mariah is concerned.

IDC, I think that would be fire. Had R. Kelly not been the freak a deek he turned out to be, this would be one INCREDIBLE match-up.

He overrates R. Kelly big time. R. Kelly is not Michael Jackson. Spare me!
