Not OT at all but why do y'all talk about Maria Callas but not Rosa Ponselle? My personal fave from that time period I've seen Maria Callas brought up twice today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with contemporary reception and taking out retrospective reviews completely - a comparison with JLo/Xtina is unhinged. Caution is 30 POINTS higher than JLo's highest album score. Not to mention Daydream, Butterfly, Debut's original receptions. And Mariah was nominated for AOTY three times, Producer of the Year in 1992 as the second female ever while JLo never won a Grammy for her work or received an AOTY nom. Xtina was never nominated for AOTY either. I guess you didn't see my last post. That was my truce . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where will they be 5 years from now at this rate? As a singer, I don't see JLo ever getting any actual critical acclaim no matter how stable her 1.5-octave voice is at age 60. I could see her riding on some popular young artist to give her a quick hit or 2 though. As an actress, don't know how long she can maintain leading in romantic comedies. That genre is, unfortunately, ageist. Literally zero acclaimed directors are giving her any material to expand her range beyond her stereotypical roles (sexy roles with some humor). Who knows Ben Affleck might carve out a role for her in one of his movies...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pluto6 Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 (edited) It's so interesting how big and loud Mariah Carey stans are, like I see them everywhere on Twitter But they are nowhere to be found when it comes buying and streaming her actual music? The GP is saving her every year with her Xmas classic though Edited March 19, 2023 by Pluto2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virtual_Insanity Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 18 minutes ago, suburbannature said: So you now choose to cherry pick one, post-Glitter album after your original comment was proven to be FAR from reality. The review for Emotions album have me screaming LOL This is acclaim to you ? Gospel without soul is rather fitting. @Intuition Quote In The New York Times, Stephen Holden believed the record showcased Carey's vocal strengths more effectively than her debut, but showed no improvement in writing lyrics, which Holden said "describe the rapturous highs and desperate lows of romance in blunt, strung-together pop clichés, with minimal rhyming."[38] Arion Berger from Entertainment Weekly found the record "colder and more calculated" than Carey's debut, describing Emotions as "the hybrid progeny of a venerable tradition — the tradition of the R&B diva — and crass commercial instincts. It's gospel without soul, love songs without passion, pop without buoyancy."[34] Orlando Sentinel editor Parry Gettelman was also critical of Carey's vocal acrobatics, writing that the singer had become "so enamored of the ultra-high-frequency part of her range that I'm starting to suspect she may be an intergalactic spy trying to re- establish communications with the far-off Planet of Dogs."

Her streams are really good for a legacy act though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
