I feel Mariah's album was not only MUCH stronger (enough to be a career highlight, even), but had more variety as well.

Mariah's last album had some amazing sh*t on it. And the highlights on it were better than the highlights on this album. But Mariah's album also has a handful of songs I don't use. I use all of these. So I think it all washes out. We'll see how this holds up for me, I am in such a Mary place right now, who knows how I'll feel about this a few years from now.

I love this wig for her better than the other she kicked off the era with (the one on the cover of the album), it reminds me of the SWET wig. Mary looks great.

My recent random thoughts and feelings about Mary: Not making this any kind of stan war (because IDGAF) but I read an article today about Mary and this album where they compared her to Mariah. The comparison was basically that in this climate, Mary is the cool, relevant aunt, and Mariah is the aunt that tries too hard to be youthful and cool. I love them both, but that is a fair comparison. At any rate, what I love the most about Mary is her natural way to stay tapped into the culture. She's a legend with a career that spans over half of her lifetime, yet she proudly exclaims that her go-to R&B acts are blasts from the past, but her favorite song of this past year is "Bad and Bougie." I'm not seeing how their recent career trajectories have been that far off from one another. They basically do the same kind of music and have the same Rap collabos. Why is Mary cool for name dropping Migos while listening to the oldies when Mariah does the same thing? She was out there singing along to The Weeknd and caught on tape. So what? Is it just the clothing The authenticity.

I'm surprised the two bonus tracks are nowhere to be found online yet.

iHeartRadio interview with Angie Martinez. This was the best interview so far this era. Angie and Mary are friends in real life, so Mary is always open and comfortable with her.

I need her to get out there and perform now. That's the best promo.

LMAO at all this cross-promo their management has these artists doing. Mary is posting how she can't wait to see Snatched and posting links to buy tickets. You know damn well Mary isn't going to see Snatched, just like you know damn well Amy Schumer isn't jamming to SOAW.

Her body is looking good and I never looked at Mary in that way, but she's doing it, seriously.

Nominated for Best Pop/R&B Female and "Thick Of It" is nominated for the Centric award at the BET Awards.
Hopefully she pulls out the first performance of "Glow Up"!

U+Me is my BOP! Ideally it would be her biggest Pop hit since "Be Without You"
