Céline has sold more units overall and has the far bigger touring career, whereas Mariah has the bigger celebrity, better recurrent stats and has made Christmas her season. They're pretty even I feel like, with maybe Céline a bit ahead but Mariah catching up.

Girl you are trying too hard. Kenny G.:rip: No one has purchased 30 million James Horner albums soundtracks or scores  before or since.

 

Kenny G was a star. He was always selling millions of albums and has a few multi platinum albums. 

You're ******* delusional, James Horner is a legendary composer and his film scores have always been iconic

They're literally almost equal. You could make an argument for either or both, but there's very little difference.

Both have mammoth careers but Céline one is one of a kind.

Juggling with 2 huge careers is pretty unique.

Her touring force, record sales make her taking the Edge.

As someone who grew up in Nigeria, Celine's level of Fame here was otherworldly.       She was a constant staple in Nigerian films and her fame cut across age boundaries etc but looking at their stats objectively I'd say it's hard to determine who is bigger

They're very equal in music consumption, but touring gives it to Céline

Spotify:

7,9 billion - Mariah

4,3 billion - Céline

 

YT:

7,0 billion - Mariah

4,1 billion - Céline

 

True. In consumption sales, Mariah has made up the gap that existed in pure sales.

Celine can actually tour and sell out. Mariah can’t since her first few eras. It’s weird that she can’t tbh

Celine Dion is the only female artist around who could rival Madonna in both touring and pure album sales. The only Non-American female artist in the top 5 and a French-language artist whose career rivals those big names in America. The current second best-selling female artist ever for a reason.

Mariah vs Celine is just a repackaged Britney vs Beyonce stan argument. Celine may have sold more but Mariah's impact is 10x more palpable on today's female pop music scene. Even then sales wise there's no factual determinant that Celine actually outsold MC. MC has crazy stats too. 

 

No one is doing that ballad **** Celine pushed time and time again in today's age, but the melismas? Pop-rap? Vocal stacking? Having rappers do pop bridges? Countless house/EDM remixes? The biggest hallmark of Mariah Carey's impact is literally two of the biggest stars of today: Beyonce and Ariana Grande. Two artists who built their whole career off of the blueprint Mariah started.

 

Celine's crowing jewel is MHWGO, a song attached to a film, when you think of MHWGO you think of Leo, Titanic sinking, Kate Winslet.

 

Mariah's crowing jewel is AIWFCIY, a song defining a whole ass season, when you think of AIWFCIY, you think of Mariah, and Christmas.

 

I think we know who has the bigger career all things considered.

I think Mariah is "more talented" as a creative artist, but Celine does the thing she does "way better".

Celine Dion by far. The other one is known for a Christmas song.
