Virtual_Insanity Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 I don't think you can really compare certifications achieved via streaming to those achieved with pure sales so Mariah has a definite advantage over Barbra. Overall Barbras total is more impressive than Mariahs, seeing as Barbras is practically all pure sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really. You wouldn't really expect Barbra to be going viral on tic toc. She is also almost 90 so Mariah has a clear advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, the fact that its only until 2019 that Mariah over took her is the real slay in the whole conversation. OT: not surprised at all its what happens when you are relevant and have a successful and beloved catalog! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
