She made some catchy pop songs, but real-talk songs like "vision of love" and "hero" are some classic material.

This version of Mariah was pretty dope: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tov22NtCMC4


Then she jumps on trend of sample beats and a rapper verse at the end and everything was downhill from there.

Giving her all sorts of bad advice.

"I mean, that sounds nice and all how you went up all those octaves, but what the fans really want is simple. These ballads are going out of style Mimi. Just looking out for you..."

Like it or not she it. Now her lows are looowww, but she got too much classic material and a once or twice in a generation voice (when she takes care of it)

And some of your favorite singers favorite singers were putting out stinkers late career too. And according to critics, Caution is supposedly pretty good. A throw back to her earlier stuff. Which is the same thing they said about EofMimi.

I dunno, but nobody has a front to back career of bangers.

She seems like a fun person. Type to throw shade and give you no play after a dope night out.

TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*

Emancipation of Mimi was pretty dope and all the jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis produced stuff but she whispered on songs for bout 10 years. positive her voice sounds strong again on the new album, it's just boring


>She seems like a fun person. Type to throw shade and give you
>no play after a dope night out.

haven't seen anything about her to know of a personality. she's not someone I would watch an interview off

That shit was hilarious because it was obvious she had 2 left feet

Seems like she was a firecracker tho.. and she had hits.

ERbody knew she was a "jersey girl" (read: rich hoodrat) anytime she opened her mouth

then her behind got on TV and that was ALL she wrote (crazy is wack, etc)

WHO are these non-admitters of which you speak

you could *never* front on her talent, but she was ALWAYS "special" as an actual person

but she's been on the scene for 20+ years. Plus she was crazy when i was like 20 years old which was when 'crazy' was at peak attractiveness to me, so yeah.
