Also a lot of iconic pop albums have mid MC scores, like Katy's Teenage Dream, so this doesn't mean anything.

stevyy Posted February 17 Posted February 17 There was one performance this year that stunned me. It sank its hooks in my heart. Not because it was good. It was... There was nothing good about it. But it was effective and it did its job. It made its intended audience laugh and show their teeth. It was that moment when entire fandomes came together during and after Mariah's Xmas craze, who then imitated me and Mariah Carey with negative intentions. Someone they outrank in privilege, power and the capacity to fight back. It kinda broke my heart when I saw it and I still can't get it out of my head because it wasn't in a movie. It was real life. And this instinct to humiliate when it's modeled by someone powerful. It filters down into everbody's life because it kinda gives permission for other people to do the same thing. Disrespect invites disrespect. Violence incites violence. When the powerful use their position to bully others - we all lose.

Lovers, it's time to buy 700K copies of This Is Me... Now. Stop using YouTube. 1

Lovers, it's time to buy 700K copies of This Is Me... Now. Stop using YouTube. yes, however, keep in mind that it was Mariah's catalogue which supported her catalogue the most in the 2010s. A song like AIWFCIY sold over 15 million traditional copies since 2000. For Jennifer, her entire music career is reflected in the statistics since 1999, for Mariah, 8 albums are missing. With new material Jennifer won (aka her entire discography). A song like Fantasy also sold over 1 million downloads just in the US alone (up until 2012). Mariah has sold over 55 million downloads in the US alone since 2003 - as per her RIAA certifications alone. So, in a comprehensive view, Mariah sold more singles in the same time frame (1999-2024). 1

The comments got turned off because everyone kept saying who was singing.

I was shocked at the year end charts and "Get Right's" performance since it flopped in my country.
