@@firasharb1454 well this was the beginning of her career where she didn't have any control over her songs or image. Tommy Mottola who signed her and controlled her at the time.
Well, she released Music Box in 1993 (2 years after this interview), which sold over 32 million copies and is one of the best-selling albums of all time. In 1994 she released Merry Christmas which sold over 15 million, while Daydream in 1995 sold over 25 million.
Mariah Carey is the only artist that I specifically remember hearing for the very first time. I remember it so well because I was so blown away by that incredible voice. I became an instant fan and now 30 years later, I'm still a fan and have all of her albums in one format or another. I'm still partial to the early years of vintage Mariah but still think she's an incredible talent.
Wow….she really was fortunate that her mom nurtured her talent. It’s really sad when parents don’t encourage their kids to think that they can do whatever their purpose in life is. Your God given gifts are meant to bless people. Her voice DEFINITELY blesses millions…
Oh you are so right! My parents were burn in the era where you work to make money, not to ge happy. I was never encouraged in my vocals or arts. I had to fight to go to art school. Mc was def fortunate as it really makes a difference in believing in yourself and even being healthy.
Wait, vision of love sold 4 million copies by 1991? It's certified gold but it hasn't been updated since 1990. Mariah needs to get her team to update her certifications 🙄🙄
They always made how to be dingy but she is very bright we’ll educated and a genuine smart vocalist standing where hardly anyone has ever stood and made it all hers just like Christmas.
She takes after her mother with her skin tone, her father was very dark complected, I think its neat how her & her mom both had the gift to sing! Being a musician I'm assuming is very stressful. Very classy Gal!
What will boggle your mind later is when you find out her grandmother's maiden name on her dad's side is Cole and she hails from the region of Nat King Cole.
Del Lunzaga she married Tommy later, that's when the true horror started, he made her look like a 40 year widow in Music Box Era 😂, you can actually see how her shine slowly faded away in the first few years and lit up again in the end of Daydream.
ocandro Ikr! She was told to wear a few things before her marriage to Tommy, but for the most part she seemed to dress the way she wanted. I loved her dresses, it was basically her signature style, and Tommy halted that by dressing her up in a turtle neck and leather trench coat and pants and shoes. Poor Mariah didn’t know how to say no. If Tommy had just let her wear whatever, she wouldn’t have been dressing as provocatively as she does these days (not that there’s anything wrong with that). She did say that since she was forced to wear these clothes for such a long time it made her want to rebel even more, and she did, by showing her body more. She would still have kept her level of maturity that she had here.
That was prior to her intimate relationship with Ex. Executive T. Motolla. By 1992, they started to dress her that will cover her entire shoulders and legs. Both from her succeeding MV up to her tours till 1996. In 1997, Mariah shocked the world when she wore that black tube paired with a high slit skirt at the VMA. That was the first time since 1992 we saw her skin.
Mariposa I don’t believe the media it’s nothing but lies. But I see the way she conducts herself and speaks now. I feel that although so many people call her arrogant and a Diva, I’m actually defending her.. I feel she won’t ever let herself be vulnerable anymore. She probably cries when she’s alone.
@@veronicasalas2666 she really did get hurt you can tell when she sings her songs the pain she endured through out those times..especially in the song looking in..
How you gonna tell someone with incredible musical talents ( more than singing) when to retire. Even if it was a regular person, who tf are you to tell people what to do with their lives. Mama should've swallowed you.
The comments about her hair and her facial features are just racist… you can be opinionated about her voice, even though she’s regarded as the best only comparable in some ways to Whitney and Celine. But this is just disgusting.
