Mariah Carey has another reason to celebrate other than her pregnancy. The diva’s new Christmas album, ‘Merry Christmas II You’, is set to debut at #4 on the Billboard 200 with 56 537 units sold, giving her her 16th top 10 debut on the tally.
Only Barbra Streisand and Madonna have more top 10 premieres with 30 and 19 entries respectively. Carey’s first Holiday album, ‘Merry Christmas’, was released in 1994 and entered the chart #30 with 45k copies in sales. ‘Merry Christmas II You’ has the distinction of having one of the highest debut rankings of any seasonal album of the last 10 years.
Another notable entry this week is N.E.R.D’s ‘Nothing’ LP which comes in at #24 with 18,559 units sold. However, there is no stopping Taylor Swift’s ‘Speak Now’ which managed to remain in the #1 spot with an impressive 327,493 copies sold in its second week on the charts.
Sidebar: These numbers and placements may change when the official Billboard 200 chart is tallied later this week.

wow congrats!
Only Mariah, 20 years DEEP into her career could put out a Christmas album and get a top 5 debut! Congrats to the one and only DIVA!!! 🙂
ok..
flop flop flop flop flop flopf flop lmao and u always tryna shade the one and only single queens b**** rihanna coming for cowriah number 1’s title trent you f****** late pressed f*** lmao i bet loud gonna s*** on these numbers when it hit that number on spot lmao
lets get LOUD 11-16-10!!!!!!!!!!
Whoever says this is a “flop” has some serious mental disturbances. How can you consider a CHRISTMAS album released in early November, yet manages to debut at #4, a flop? What kind of sense does that make? People are just pressed, and jealous. It saddens me when I see this. Can’t these dumbass haters be happy for her once? Must they continue to spread their disgusting personalities around? If your life comes across as this sad over the internet, I can only imagine what you’re like in real life. Ew.
How is a top 5 debut a flop stop hating b******
Jerry Fenty u QUEEN learn respect. Mariah slaaaayed. Rihanna can only dream of her success and acclaim. Bye.
I loooooove Mariah! Interesting how back in 1994, her first X-Mas album didn’t even make the top 10. Boy, have changed drastically!
Good debut!
This album is a great win for Mariah! Sales will only INCREASE the closer to Christmas
*have times changed drastically.
Love the album it well sell like hot cakes during black Friday and the haters can eat s***
Rihanna really? Well at least Mariah doesn’t have a goat for a ghost singer.
@Manny
Thank you! People will do anything in their power to take away from someones success because they dont have any accomplishments of their own.
I knew MESSIAH Carey would do well. Congrats mama 🙂
It cud have been number 1 but the thing is it sold 50k….that means nothing…rihanna sold 180k u guys called her a flop but now it’s mariah who has been doing this ishh for 20 years…a legend and she ONLY sells 50k….REALLY NOW….THIS IS AN EPIC FLOP….Yall are such hypocrites.
Trent go to mariahdaily, you got a shoutout lol
its not a flop..its good for a christmas album…how many copies have your c.d.s sold??..hmm..NONE!! LOL.
Go Mimi, Go Mimi…
do people realized that a christmas album is NOT the same as a regular album?
of course not, thats what happens when people FAIL in life, they dont use a thing call COMMON SENSE..
just the fact that this album did MUCH better than her last xmas album…
the bish is wiping her a** with 1k bills, so I doubt she gives to f*** about u dumb idiots…..
why is everyone talking about rihanna??? jeez.
Yet the no talent ass goat doesn’t have one single #1 album.
Are these clowns seriously trying to compare RiGoat to an iconic veteran that has been in the business for 20 years and has went down in history as one of the worlds greatest singers?????????? Sad, pathetic and threatened by every other female artists.
You goat stans really really really need to get a life.
it’s a holiday album its not expected to sell high plus there r other factors to an album being a flop other than sales. considering the album’s chart performance it has done well so far. as for rihanna’s 180k 1st week thts about right for a singles artist. thts in the ballpark as ke$ha, katy perry and Xtina these days. a holiday album would be less thn tht.
ROTFL at RiGoat hahahah
excuses…excuses.
rihanna album has leaked let see how will she do……….CHEAK OUT CHRIS BROWN NEW SONG OFF HIS INMYZONE MIXTAPE http://bit.ly/dzQDEK
Jesus, can we leave other females out of this post? They’re irrelevant to the subject at hand. And how in the world did Rihanna get into this post? And comparing her to Mariah? Thats like comparing Louis Vutton(Mariah) to Baby Phat(Rihanna)…
I like Rihanna, but some of her stans are ridiculous…
I’m sorry but 56k for a major artist is a flop. The album is a hotmess with copy and pasted vocals, and a friend of mine attended her taping of her Xmas special and said he was disappointed because it was 95% lipped. Mariah’s career is in serious trouble. If this was Madonna, Celine or Whitney debuting with a measly 56k, you all would be calling it a flop. And this my friends is a MAJOR FLOP.
ALL I WANT TO KNOW IS WHO THE F*** IS BUYING ALL TAYLOR SWIFT”S DRY ASS ALBUMS< SO DISGUSTING< SHE HAS NO TALENT WITH SINGING AND THOSE LITTLE MIDDLE SCHOOL SONGS SHE SINGS IT"S A SLAP IN THE FACE TO REAL MUSICIANS< KANYE WTF DID YOU DO WHEN YOU INTERRUPTED HER< PEOPLE ARE BUYING HER S*** OUT OF PITY.
Of course this post is going to turn into another Rihanna post. Damn, some of you are so obsessed with this chic. Why is EVERYONE so obsessed with Rihanna? Every post on this site turns either into her, Beyonce, or Ciara. Stay on topic people! SMH
MY thoughts exactly . Taylor has sold so many records of this album and I never even knew it was out, sounds suspect. Is there even a single out? Mariah please give us emancipation music again.
1: WHY THE *HELL* IS RIHANNA’S NAME BEING MENTIONED IN THIS POST ANYWAY,,, FFS!
2: HOW CAN AN ALBUM DEBUT IN THE TOP 5 OF THE BILLBOARD 200 ALBUMS CHART AT NUMBER 4 BE CONSIDERED A FLOP? PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE!!!!!!! ESPECIALLY SINCE ITS BEING RELEASEDE AS EARLY AS NOVEMBER 11TH!!!!!!!
3: HOW DOES TAYLOR SWIFTS ALBUM FALL FROM 1, 17 000 COPIES IN THE FIRST WEEK TO 327,000??????? WOOOOOOOW! LOGICALLY, IT DOESN’T MAKE MUCH SENSE… 50 CENTS ALBUM DEBUTED AT NUMBER ONE WITH 1, 30, 000+ IN THE FIRST WEEK AND SOLD 700,00+ IN THE SECOND- NORAH JONES DEBUTED WITH 1, 10, 00+ IN THE FIRST WEEK AND SOLD 800,00+ ON THE SECOND! WOOOOOOOW!
b/c the record company is buying it. Taylor swift is NOT NOR NEVER will she be on Mariah’s level.
It’s funny I said the same thing the other day. I would never buy one of Taylor Swifts albums, she sings for the kiddies, but is a grown ass woman, grow up.
Looks like Mariahshe cannot get to number 1 to save her life. That’s what happen when you put quantity over quality
These f****** haters are pressed how the f*** are you going to tell me MIMI a flop when she is the BEST SELLING FEMALE ARTIST OF ALL TIME now none of your faves can compete with that s***.
@VIKI HAHAHHA I WAS AT THAT TAPING AND IT WAS AMAZING AND SHE ONLY LIPPED TWO SONG AND SURE ABOUT THAT AND I’M NOT A REALLY BIG MIMI FAN DO NOT #SHADE MARIAH…… AND I LOVE THE ALBUM BY THE WAY
Taylor Swift can’t sing worth a lick. Have you guys heard her live? The girl is awful. But unlike RiGoat, she does have talent in other aspects.
Mimi is the true alpha successful female. None of the others can compare to her talent OR her sales. A top 5 Xmas album in early Nov. Bow down to the REAL queen!
great for a holiday cd.
No one can compare? Both Madonna and Whitney had NUMBER 1 ALBUMS 20+ years into their careers. How about that. This album is a flop and you know you all wish it had at least scanned 100k. If it wasn’t for her announcing her pregnancy , it prob would have done worst. Ain’t nobody trying to buy a lipsyncher who mixes old tapings with the new voice. Mariah’s career is near the end….face it
These Stans are so annoying. How is selling 50K for a Christmas album a flop? Kids these days are dumb as hell. I blame BET Nicki Minaj & Rihanna.
@VIKI BUT MARIAH HAS MORE NUMBER ONE ALBUM AND IS THE BEST SELLING FEMALE IN HISTORYYYYYYYYYYY #STAYMAD STOP THE HATE AND GO PAY YOUR BILLS 🙂
More number 1’s does not mean “better”, “the best” or “better quality”, let’s get that straight. That is all you stans have to go on, cause truth is more than half of Mariah’s Numer 1’s are forgettable, and no one outside her stans know what they are
#FACTS ARE FACTS #THATISALL…………CONGRATS TO Madonna and Whitney , Mariah Carey on their successful Careers NOW AND THEN #MUCHLOVE 🙂
@ Vicki – This album is classified as a seasonal album. Which means under Market Segmentation it would fall under “Niche”! Focusing on sub-segments or niches with distinctive traits that may seek a special combination of benefits
This album is not a mainstream album. A mainstream album is targeted @ the largest possible album with the ability to be listened to 365 days a year.
A season album is targeted to a small group of people that will only listen to the album on a seasonal bases ( November & December)
A seasonal album does not get as much airplay as a mainstream album. Nor does it get the budget or the exposure of a mainstream album. Imagine them playing ” All I want for Christmas” on Hot 97 in November.
Before you post educate yourself. Stop being ignorant . Funny some stans will hate on anyone who isnt their fav artist. Well. Honey spend that time and energy in your own personal life. Just maybe you wouldnt be reduced to being so childish and hateful because your life sucks.
2 the haters ( Trent included)
The people you all hate on.. MC Lil Kim Kelly Rowland Nicki Minaj Etc are all more successful and relavent that you are. If they weren’t then you wouldn’t post about them. IE: People call Kim washed up & done. Yet she hasnt had an album out in 5 years & whatever she does says makes the blogs & radios. Guess she isn’t too irrelevant . People still call Xtina and want to work with her so I guess her career isnt as over as you all thought.
If 99% of you died tomorrow the only person who would care would be your family. No one knows who you are nor does anyone care.
You have GOT to be kidding me with this post right??? 56,537 units?? thats a flop. But i bet when Rihanna debuts next week with art least 170, 000 that’ll be flop right?? You guys are soo biased.
i guess nobody is realizing that this is a CHRISTMAS album! Lol They werent expecting it to sell 300-400k the first week in NOVEMBER! around black friday and closer to christmas expect an increase in sales. Sad to see people rejoice in what they THINK is another’s downfall or something negative. smh Anywho congrats Mariah! =)
ViKi
Get A Life ( You have more comments on this post than anyone else)
Does seeing people respond 2 your shenanigans make you feel like you have friends. Get off line , Go outside, and make some friends. Its obvious you have none .
If you don’t like her. Get off her post! Lame
Jae a.k.a Viki I think you should read Shaytan’s post. This is a Christmas album ( Off course Rihanna’s album will out sell this) It has a bigger audience ( 17 year olds are rushing to QVC to buy a Xmas album)
Haters You Can Kill Yourself
YAY, MiMi shines as the LEGEND she is!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IM A PERSON THATS BUYING TAYLOR SWIFTS ALBUM!!!! Shes killing everyone else in sales hahahah!
Taylor swift<3
That is GOOD for a Christmas album!!!
@IFREAKUM
BISH WHO THE F*** DO YOU THINK YOU ARE TAKING MY GRAVATAR!?! SMH!!!
AHAHAHAHA
OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!! MARIAH CAREY IS SUCH A FLOP!!!!!!! BEYONCE GOTTA GET BACK NOW AND SHOW THESE B****** HOW IT’S DONE!
SORRY BOO, YOUR CAREER WAS STOLEN BY BEYONCE! GIVE IT THE F*** UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SMH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I CAN’T!!!!
i still dont think that they are accounting the HSN sales though, kinda like barbara with her last minute sales. Could potentially rise to 60-70k sales
What part of Christmas album dont you all understand?
And I agree with Taylor Swift comments. I applaud Taylor for writing her own songs and having talent in other aspects, but the girl cant sing to save her life. Did you hear her VMA performance when she sang “Innocent”? I rest my case…
I cant wait until talent reigns in the music industry again. Because its dying a slow and painful death. Real Talk..
You call yourself “BeyonceStan” and refer to me as having no life. B**** go sit
She’s a real DIVA, real lambs know that she’s the best!
And with sure, who wasn’t a lamb will be after liten to the new album Merry Xmas II U!
@Drew
C’mon now….I love Beyonce, but lets be real. When Mariah started out, Beyonce was in Houston singing along to Tina Turner on her karaoke playset. Beyonce has made her own lane in the industry, and Mariah has as well. Both women are bad b****** 😀
@SoulfulRoses
AHAHAHAHA
MARIAH HAAAAAAAAAAAAAD HER OWN LANE BOO! BEYONCE BLEW IT UP!!!!!!!!!!! MARIAH IS A S*** ARTIST AND BEYONCE’S RULES THIS WORLD
I CAN’T WITH YOU DELUSIONAL PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Drew
If you say so…
There is a reason why Taylor Swift sold a Millie 1st WK. All MAINSTREAM Acts have to WORK HARD for HALF those 1st Wk Sells. Its the ones with OPPOSITE GENRED Music that can SELL without Trying like Sade, Amy Winehouse, Taylor Swift. Just look at the Type of music they make & who Buys them. Mainstream Acts like MJ, Beyonce, Britney, Mariah, Usher & Gaga have to WORK HARD for Massive Sells.
Let me just say, I think Taylor Swift is a CUTE Vocalist with CUTE Music but there is a REASON why she sells well without trying:
#1. SHES WHITE
#2: She sing COUNTRY *POP* MUSIC
#3: She has a loyal TWEEN FanBase that knows NOTHING about Downloads or Leaks
#4: Shes an INNOCENT all American Girl.
#5: She takes ZERO Musical Risk WHATSOEVER
#6: SHES WHITE
Theres also a REASON why Many other Artist Sell without Trying, Not because they’re special but because of Politics.
@ DREW
You cant come for Mariah or Janet cause when it comes to the QUEEN Title they are the ONLY TRUE Contestants/RUNNER UPS… I will allow you to come for Lesser/Over Rated Whores like Madonna though.
@S***/Beyonce=Queen
AHAHAHA
BOOO WHAT EVER!
BUT I CAN SAY #3 WAS SO TRUE 🙂
SHE WHITE? SO F****** WHAT!
I CAN’T!
@S*** Taylor swift wote the whole album… i like to know how much Beyonce writes.. FAIL.
Taylor swift<3
@Beyonce=Queen
BOOO I MUST ASK YOU A QUESTION. HOW COME MARIAH ONLY EVER HAS HIT ALBUMS WHEN B DOESN’T RELEASE AN ALBUM?
CASE-AND-POINT E=MC2 VS. TEOM!!!!!!!!
I CAN’T!!!!!!!!!!!
@DANIEL
BOOO SHUT YOUR F** ASS MOUTH! TAYLOR S*** CAN’T SING AT ALL AND HER LYRICS ARE WORSE THAN WHAT A 5 YEAR OLD COULD WRITE.
CASE-AND-POINT: “MEAN”
I CAN’T WITH THESE DELUSIONAL STANS!!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE BEING A QUEEN B STAN! PEOPLE KNOW BETTER THAN TO ATTACK HER!!!!!!!
#3: She has a loyal TWEEN FanBase that knows NOTHING about Downloads or Leaks
Im a t*** and i know about downloads…leaks. etc. as do all my friends Teens are the ones who are downloaded the most… obvs.. as they dont have the money.. as they dont work FAIL.
@DANIEL
GET THE F*** OFF THIS SITE YOU GAY ASS T***!!!!!!!!!!
I CAN’T!!!!
@DREW You cant defend her.. cause she dont write s***.. shes just a puppet.. shes no artist.. artist write there own music.. like Tatlor swift.
@ DREW
Does my OLD Gravatar look FAMILIAR to you??
@DANIEL
ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!? BEYONCE HAS EVERYTHING THAT TAYLOR SWIFT DOES: MONEY, FAME, HIT SINGLES, HUGE ALBUMS, HUGE TOURS, AN AMAZING VOICE.
@S***
What are you talking about? I’m new to this site, boo. By the way, I don’t fight fellow B stans unless they give me a huge reason to 😉
I CAN’T!!!!!!!!!
Go Mimi! Only Mariah can pull this off 🙂
@ Daniel
B**** H** SIT.
Beyonce CONTRIBUTES to her music in EVERY LVL of a Songs Composition, Arrangements, Lyrics, Melodies, Harmonies ETC, No she doesnt Write ALL BY HERSELF but she has EARNED 1ST CREDIT on MANY of her Songs. If all you have on her is she Jacked This & didnt write That, you dont have very much at all do you??
Some artist NEED to OVER COMPENSATE & write there own music & play Instruments Otherwise they arent good at where it counts: RAW STAGE TALENT. For artist like Beyonce, MJ, & Mariah Writing is just a BONUS & Compensation.
@Fusion
AHAHAHAHA
IF QUEEN B RELEASED A HOLIDAY ALBUM SHE’D GO #1 FIRST WEEK. WHAT YOU TALKING BOUT?
I CAN’T!!!
@S***
CO-SIGN.
@Drew. Has she had a million selling album in a week?No Has she wrote any songs that have been hits? No. Im talking about being an artist.. Beyonce is nothing but a puppet. Taylor is an artist.. not a puppet like beyonce.
@DANIEL
Boo, I can’t do this with you. Refer to S***’s post b****.
*CORRECTION*
For artist like Beyonce, MJ, & Mariah Writing is just a BONUS…
NOT over Compensation.
@S*** Exactly, she doesnt write it all by herself..She needs loads of other writers… thats if she does even write her own music. Taylor swift.. aged 21 wrote a whole album herself.. that has sold over a million in a week. When beyonce does this.. i will respect her as an artist.
@Daniel
Who cares if you can write a whole album if the lyrics are meaningless and juvenile?
I CAN’T!!!!!!!!!!
@drew. Maybe to you.. but then a lot of beyonce songs.. which she hasnt wrote have no meaning to at all. Also…. you dont see Taylor swift needing to show her body of.. to sell music do you!. you know why? cause shes an artist.. its all about the music!!! fact!
I do know that Mariah Writes a lot of her music, Hmm maybe thats why her albums always SUCK 😆 I prefer Beyonce getting all the help she needs if It means her Album is gonna S*** As it usually does all over the industry then m all for it…
IM all for it…
@ Daniel
N**** Im DONE with you, Its Trailors Music among other things like her innocence & Skin color that sells albums. Beyonce is a TRUE Artist in its Truest Form. Only MJ is Truer but Beyonce’s music is BETTER. Beyonce could be like WHITNEY, RIHANNA & BRITNEY & NOT WRITE S*** AT ALL!!
Even if this is a Christmas album, these sales are pitiful for a legend like her. I hope sales pick up closer to Christmas.
As far as Taylor Swift goes, the girl is talented period. She writes her own music and can sing. She doesn’t have the bets voice, but she can sing! She sold a million + copies debut week– don’t hate, congratulate. The last time I checked NONE of your favorites have done the same.
@S***. why bring her skin colour is to the fact she’s selling Music. Do you buy beyonce’s music cause shes black? No i would guess.. so your arguement fails.
Damn, 327K copies for Taylor? I don’t think that’s all that great, if she shifted a million units last week. Her sales kind of fell off a cliff. I expected the sales decrease to be, I don’t know, more modest.
Oh, and congrats Mariah.
@Mari The actuall figures are come out later this week.. it says at the bottom of the blog thing… It will be more by then.
“#2: She sing COUNTRY *POP* MUSIC”
@S***
The fact that she’s a country artist makes her success that much more remarkable.
@Daniel
We’ll see.
@Daniel
No offense, but are you familiar with the concept of white privilege?
@Mari. No.. if 50 cent can sell over 1 milion in a week.. and he isnt exactly that talented is he? and his black!!
The last artist to sell a million in a week was 5 years ago.. by a black artist.. 50 cent.
I bought the album and it is so good. I love every song on the album, especially ‘When Christmas Comes’ and ‘Oh Santa’.
Haters need to STFU and I know damn well ain’t no Rihanna stans on here tryna downplay MC success because she will NEVER EVER reach the success and accalim of Mariah Carey. SO dismiss yourselves with that s***. straight the f*** up.
And Drew STFU, why must you compare Beyonce and Mariah Carey. They are both talented and great. So don’t even go there.
AND LMFAO @ Taylor Swift sales dropping 700,000. BWAHAHAHAHA.
@DANIEL
Actually it was 2 years ago by lil Wayne
Mariah is now The Queen Of Flop….RIP
@Beyonce OWNS your Fav Its no the final figures, it says it at the bottom of the blog.. besides.. it doesnt matter if she sells 700,000 and then another 700,000/. shes still sold 1.4 million in 2 weeks.
@Drew
Oh, sorry…I was ranting about nothing and that was retarded.
^^what?
Anyways, @BeyonceOwnsYourFav
Sorry? LOL I’ve just never been a fan of Mariah but yes, she can sing.
@Beyonce OWNS your Fav. your right…. lil Wayne did sell a million.. 50 cent sold more then taylor.. she has the biggest first week total for 5 years.
Aaahh wrong post >_>
Sorry!
@Mari
Taylor is not a country artist.
Taylor Swift??? Rihanna???? Are you people f****** kidding me??? Mariah at her WORST shits on those two women on their BEST day easily. It is an insult to even mention their names on her post.
And for all the people saying “Oh Taylor is talented because she writes her own songs, blah blah blah”, have you actually read her lyrics? She writes like a five-year-old, and she never varies her subject matter. It’s all “waaah, a boy dumped me for another chick”. That does not take much talent, and I am sick and tired of people trying to defend her so-called talent. SHE IS NOT TALENTED, PERIOD. RECORD SALES DON’T DICTATE TALENT, ONLY POPULARITY. IF YOU CAN’T HANDLE THE TRUTH, TOO BAD.
@ Daniel:
So… by your logic, Taylor is more talented than Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Nat King Cole, Elvis Presley, Barbra Streisand, Whitney Houston, etc. because they never wrote their own songs? B*******. If Taylor had the songwriting skills of Bob Dylan or Joni Mitchell, then she could be considered as equally talented as the aforementioned people (we can’t ignore the fact that she can’t sing, so she can’t be MORE talented than them). But her songwriting skills aren’t even good enough to be considered average. Hell, Hayley Williams from Paramore is a better songwriter than she is, and has actually matured as an artist over the past few years.
Taylor may not show skin, but her image is still 90% responsible for her mass popularity. Ask a Taylor fan why they like her, and the majority of the answers will be “because she’s a good role model”. Sorry, but what does being a good role model have to do with musicianship? I don’t care if an artist is a good person or not, all I care is that they are talented and make good music. If not, then I couldn’t care less about your image.
In order to maintain her popularity, Taylor must toe the line when it comes to her personal life. She has to maintain the image of the good role model, because if she messes up, then it’s bye-bye for her career. Since she never built her career on actual talent. Beyoncé doesn’t have to worry about that, since she is genuinely talented. If she messes up, her fans will stand by her because we care about the MUSIC. Who’s the puppet now?
OH MY GOD!!!!!!!
WHAT A FLOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS IS TOOOO FUNNY
11/16/10 LOUD BITTTTCHESSS
ke$hus slays this b****
Get $leazy betches 🙂
@RihannasWorld
We all know your Nicky. But anyways, what are you talking about? This is AMAZING for a Christmas album. They don’t sell – especially in November.
@Ke$hus
Thanks for the laugh 😀
@Daniel
“Has she wrote any songs that have been hits?”
Damn near every song on “Survivor”, “Destiny Fullfilled”, and “Dangerously in Love” she wrote and co produced.
The reason Beyonce doesn’t write her songs anymore I believe is because she doesn’t want everything to sound the same and she wants to grow. Maybe Taylor should take the same approach, because she is 20 years old and by her lyrics you would think she was still in high school.
@TrueBlue
OH MY GOD I was hoping you’d show up soon! Some people on this post are CRAZY!
@BeyonceOwnsYourFav
I agree. I think maybe she’s just doing that to avoid sounding like she’s still in Destiny’s Child.
@Daniel
WHAT THE F*** IS YOU SMOKING!?!? FOR REAL! I WANT SOME! LIKE HONESTLY, YOU GOT NOOOO IDEA! TAYLOR SWIFT ALWAYS HAS SOUNDED 9, ALWAYS WILL SOUND 9, AND ALWAYS SOUNDS 9! WHAT THE HELL!?!?
I CAN’T!!!!!!
@RiRiLOUD
STFU DUMB B****! ARE YOU CRAZY!?!? DAVID ARCHULETA’S CHRISTMAS ALBUM LAST OCTOBER DID REALLY WELL – SAME WITH BOB DYLAN
I CAN’T!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU BETTER SIGN UP B****, RIHANNA NAVY IS TAKING OVER!!!
Say what? @RiRiLoud you know Ke$ha’s going #1! There is no way that dumb r**** can go #1 with BahhLoud!
ahahahaha get $leazy 😉
@True Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Blue
I would say yes, shes more talented then all the people you have listed.. they all have better voices, but as far as being an artist and writing music.. she is better then those.
Im saying that beyonce isnt an artist like taylor swift is, cause artist write there own music.. they also dont need to take there clothes of to to sell music, which beyonce always does.
Taylor isnt a puppet at all, I would say writing a whole album is taking control of her career dont you think? and not have it in the hands of her record label and there writers. Beyonce just sings, what she is given.
I havent said Taylor swift is a good role model, I dont count artist of music role models, i’ve never looked upto any them.. i respect them… but dont look upto them in that way. Taylor swift does seem like a sweet girl though, who just loves making music.
@Beyonce OWNS your Fav Of course taylor has wrote hits… Mine got to number 2, plus she’s got 10 of the songs of her album in the hot 100.
@Rihanna’sWorld
In case you haven’t noticed, I stan for Rihanna. Hell, I’m a Fleet Admiral in the Rihanna Navy 🙂
@Ke$hus
I can’t with you! Cannibal won’t reach 150k first week.
@ Daniel:
Even though her songwriting is basically something any 11-year-old girl taking poetry class could do, you still consider her to be more talented than all those legendary artists? You do realize that had she walked into a record label’s office 30 years ago, she would have been laughed out of the building? Damn, I used to think Rihanna stans on this site were delusional, but Taylor Swift fans have officially taken the cake in the delusional department. I know not even Nicky would say that Rihanna is better than Judy Garland or Elvis Presley, even if she wrote her own songs.
@ RiRiLoud:
It’s beyond crazy… I just can’t understand people being such hardcore stans for her, I can’t.
“Beyonce just sings, what she is given.”
Beyonce does not just sing what is given to her. She is actually very involved. She knows what she wants and thats what she tells the writers she scouts to write. She does not just take a song and sing it. And if an artist has already pre-written a song she arranges the sound and melody.
“they also dont need to take there clothes of to to sell music, which beyonce always does.”
Beyonce doesn’t need to take her clothes off to sell records either. The majority of her fans are gay and straight women so I really doubt they care about seeing her naked. I know I don’t. It adds to the appeal but it doesn’t really do anything in the long run. I mean there are a lot of female artist dressing half naked and they still don’t get any recognition.
@Daniel
You are insane. Taylor Swift isn’t talented because she writes her music. She can’t write well. And anyways, she’s a fad. She doesn’t have longevity. 1 million first week? It’s obviously going downhill from here.
“Mine” went to #3, by the way, and Beyonce does have huge creative control over her albums. Neither Rihanna nor Beyonce write their songs, no, but they both decide what they want their albums to sound like and be like and then give directions and tweak songs to make them the way they want to. They’re too busy making money to write songs 😉 What endorsements/other projects does Taylor have besides music? None.
@TrueBlue
I can obviously understand Rihanna stans but I don’t know how anyone could stan for Taylor. And that’s so true. Nicky is psychotic but even he knows that Judy Garland, Elvis Presley, and the other legends trump Rihanna by far. It’s unfathomable.
@BeyonceOwnsYourFav
Co-sign.
@True Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Blue
Haha. Her lyrics arent that bad. Shes got plenty of time to mature.. shes only 20. Her songs actually make me feel happy, they might not be to a high stardard, but atleast when she sings.. its not someone elses thoughts like it is when beyonces sings.. all the songs she sings… are her thoughts… i feel a bigger connection when i listen to her.. cause its her own work.
Like i said.. those Acts have better voices… Okay how is elvis more talented that Taylor swift.. other then he has a better voice? Elvis is seen as the greatest male singer ever and artist.. but how is he more talented.. all he did was sing… sure he had a great voice.. but other then that. what else makes him more talented then Taylor swift?
@TrueBlue
Ke$ha could outsing Judy Gayland and Elvis Pervsley any day.
11.22.10 GET $LEAZY!!!!!!
@Daniel
NONONONONO!!!!! MJ IS THE BEEEEEEEEEEST MALE SINGER EVER AND RIHANNA IS THE BEST FEMALE SINGER EVER.
*Dead*
@Daniel
Is Taylor Swift more talented than Lady Gaga?
@RiRiLOUD
You might not think she can write well, but millions do… this is why she’s selling so much. its one thing sing someone elses song.. its another singing your own. okay Mine went to number 3.. she still has 10 songs in the top 100 from onr album, thats impressive… thats actually not been done before.
Taylor Swift.. doesnt do anything else cause shes only into music.. and not using music to sell other stuff…which i dont think is a negative really,
@RIHANNA’SWORLD
I’ve never laughed so hard in my life. That was a good one.
@RIHANNA’SWORLD. Mj doesnt have a great voice.. Elvs’s voice killed mj… who sounds like a women when he spoke no offence.
Elvis is also the biggest selling male artist theres ever been.
@I’m an ugly ass biatch
No taylor swift is more talented then lady gaga… i think lady gaga does write some of her music though.
Okay, I think I’m gonna stop making fun of Nicky as of now. I no longer see him as crazy, at least not compared to Daniel.
All Elvis did was sing, really??? When Taylor revolutionizes an entire genre of music, and influences great acts like The Beatles, then you can say she is better than Elvis.
“MJ doesn’t have a great voice”?? A Taylor Swift fan criticizing MJ’s vocals? I CANNOT WITH THIS B*******!!!!
See kids, this is what happens when you do drugs.

Thanks for the laughs 🙂
And for the record, Judy Gayland and Elvis Presley s*** all over Ketchup. The green kind with corn in it…
@ Daniel:
Lady Gaga writes ALL of her music. Her lyrics are much more clever and well-written, not to mention that she can ACTUALLY SING!
@DANIEL
BWAHAHAHAHAHA
Lady Gaga write her own music, produces her own music, plays and instrument, sings, and dances.
So using your logic Lady gaga is indeed more talented than Trailer s***.

I know, I died (and I’m a stan here).

I think we all know the anwser to that. Rah rah ah ah ah…romah ro mah mah…Gaga oh la la 🙂
@True Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Blue No someone said.. Mj was the best male singer… when i said. elvis was the greasest male singer…. I wasnt critcizing his voice!!
Oh please.. no one revolutionizes music anymore.. theres nothing more then can be done.. plus he didnt do that.. the writers then gave him the songs did that.
@RiRiLoud
This damn Trailer s*** stan is delusional as it comes.
Daniel is so delusional. You were right @TrueBlue becuase Taylor Swift stans are absolutely, the craziest. “This is what happens when you do drugs” – *dead*
Thanks @Keshus for the laughs
Fine lady gaga is more talented then Taylor swift. HAPPY!!! See i can when i have been proved wrong.
^^^ If he didn’t revolutionize music, then why do so many influential artists cop him as their inspiration?
If The Beatles, Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson, just to name a few, say they were inspired by you, I think it’s fair to say that you revolutionized music.

Im not a big fan of Gaga(I do love some of her songs)the truth is the truth. Overall, the Taylor Swift fan needs to stop. I dont care if she sold 100 million in a week, comparing her to Beyonce, Lady Gaga, etc…makes her look worse. There’s no comparison
~Fin~
True Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Blue Yeah, okay fine. Its a lot harder to do that now though. what can taylor swift do to have the same effect. No artist today under 30 can say they’ve revolutionized music
Taylor Swift is known for her earsplittingly terrible country songs such as “Speak Now” and “Teardrops on My Guitar” Her music might sound great to those who have nothing to base it on, i.e. elementary school kids, but to those of us who regularly listen to artists with unmeasurable talent , her whiny, off tune voice and repetition of 3 chords can barely be considered music. In fact, just listening to Taylor Swift attempt to sing is enough to cause one’s ears to bleed profusely.
Taylor Swift has no stage presence. Britney Spears was more captivating during her performance of “Gimme More” than Taylor Swift would be if she was hopped up on illegal substances. Not to mention the fact that she looks like an odd mix of an Asian prostitute, a bird, and a neanderthal.
Oh and just for the record, she’s from Pennsylvania. The accent is fake, y’all.
Taylor also looks like a

“Teardrops on My Guitar” I love that song!! that song is ace! i dont know how you can hate that song. Ateast it has a story behind the song.. unlike Beyonces music. which is just blah
“No artist today under 30 can say they’ve revolutionized music”
And I don’t think your non-singing girl Taylor will be an exception to that rule. Although Gaga is only 24, and look how much she turned the music industry upside down. Keep an eye out for her. And keep giving me laughs with your delusions.

LMAO at Daniel. His delusions give more laughs than that of Nicky’s.
As for Ke$hus, I know s/he is just a troll fishing for laughs.
Why are people taking the mick out of taylor swifts looks? I think shes so pretty. her face is amazing looks wise. shes more pretty then most girls
Mariah’s Christmas album is great, I bought it yesterday.
Speaking of Christmas albums though
I listened to Taylor Swift’s Christmas album w/ my best friend who is a huge Taylor fan this past weekend and boy was it horrible.She moans and groans but never lands on the same key with the band. I’ve heard cows giving birth that sound better than her horrendous version of “Silent Night.” Not only does Taylor Swift murder “Silent Night,” she keeps stabbing it, cuts it up, and then tosses it on the fire. When it turns to ashes, she throws them off the Tallahatchie Bridge. The only reason anyone should by that Christmas CD is to send it to your worst enemy.
@TrueBlue
I die when I read Daniel’s posts. For real. And it’s funny how he keeps trying to act like he’s less delusional by pretending (I’m guessing) that Taylor Swift isn’t his God. Someone’s first post is always the real them

lmfao @ the ke$ha stan i didnt even know she had stans.
In my opinion Taylor Swift is a better singer than Beyonce and a better overall artist. She writes her own songs, she doesn’t have to sell s**, she plays the guitar, and is smart.
People only think Beyonce is better because she is always half naked. And she lip suncs way to much, atleast Taylor doesn’t lip sync and has enough courage to let us hear her real voice.
When is Beyonce going to sell one million in one week?
I’ll wait
^^^ Daniel, you don’t have to post under two names to make your point. It just looks sad.

Oi.. Leave Taylor Swift alone!! Shes very pretty, dont be jealous girls over her looks.
Ok so if Beyonce Rules The World cn we compare Destinys Child Christmas album sales to Mariah at least thats fair so….. 8 Days Of Christmas debuted 75 on the U.S. Billboard 200 selling over 23,000 so either way u spin it MARIAH SLAYYYYS
As a lamb… i have nothing but love, love, love
and i’m just happy that MC still makes great music!!!!
Look at all the dumb b****** arguing with each other after hours! Do you people honestly not have lives? GTFO the computer and do something with your lives besides being petty and fucken bitter.
@MUSIC LOVER
WHY ARE U WORRYING ABOUT US B****?
What a sad debut.
@Daniel:
By your logic why are you not routing for Mariah? Since she started out shes been writing her own material. Sure shes had the co-writer’s chime in here and there in a chorus and shes done a cover here and there but Mariah pretty much owns the right to 94% her songs over the last two decades. Mariah can write, produce, and sing her own music and I’m not saying she didn’t have help but I think that with your logic that must make Mariah look like a goddess. And like it has been mentioned its not always a good thing that Mariah writes most of her stuff because it creates the possibility her music sounding the same. But as you say with Taylor Swift’s music at least she wrote it and you can with her.
I’m actually very curious for a reply since you are the other side of the music industry audience i don’t get. The side of the industry that buys into a fake, safe and nicely bundled package specifically designed and masterfully crafted to appeal to you. What makes Mariah so wrong for someone like you. Is it that she doesn’t write from a teenage point of view because I’m sure there are people in here that would argue some of Mariah’s music can get a tad bit juvenile. I know Mariah Carey isn’t the most politically safe personality and she has made very questionable decisions in her life that have tarnished her music career but if her music is her then by your standards wouldn’t you be a fan of hers?
18 number 1 singles and millions of albums sold and one of the FEW artists who can still perform live without auto-tune assistance. One of the FEW artists who can release a Christmas album in November and still score a top 5 debut. You wanna talk about a flop, see N.E.R.D’s 18 000 copies sold @ number 24…
Rihanna, although her songs are good, struggles to hit number one. Not even Only Girl in the World hit number 1 and I think that that’ll be the best song on the album. Much less can she perform live.
Each to his own I suppose. Let’s just wait for Mariah to smash the Beatles record cause it’s cound to haapen!!
WOW OK
MARIAH CAREY’S FIRST CHRISTMAS ALBUM (1994) IS THE MOST SUCCESSFUL ALBUM OF ALL TIME
THE DEBUT WEEK OF MERRY CHRISTMAS MARIAH CAREY WAS
45,000 ON IT’S FIRST WEEK AND RELEASED IN NOVEMBER 1 AND DEBUTED (#30 BILLBOARD HOT 100)
ON IT’S FIFTH WEEK THE ALBUM SOLD 208,000 COPIES RISING TO (#3 ON BILLBOARD HOT 100)
THEN ON IT’S SIXTH WEEK WHICH WAS CHRISTMAS SEASON AT IT’S PEAK THE ALBUM SOLD 500,000 COPIES!!!!
MARIAH CAREY’S (MERRY CHRISTMAS II YOU) – 2010
DEBUTED AT #4 WITH 56,000 SOLD! WHICH WAS 26 SPOTS HIGHER THAN HER FIST ALBUM!
AND THIS ALBUM WILL CONTINUE TO RISE AND CONTINUE TO SELL MORE ONCE THE CHRISTMAS SEASON IS AT IT’S PEAK!
SO U EFFIN HATERS GO SUK ON IT!
DO YOU PEOPLE REALIZE YOU ARE ARGUING WITH TEENAGE GAYS BOYS, ITS POINTLESS TO TRY AND GET YOU POINT ACROSS, LET THEM RANT, WHO CARES? MARIAH DOESNT GIVE A F*** HER TOENAIL IS WORTH MORE THEN YOUR LIVES LOL….
The album will soar once Christmas draws near, and the Christmas special that will air is gonna really boost sales, I was there at the taping for the show and she sounded great!!! I cant wait for all you haters to see it cuz it’s gonna finally shut you all up and prove that her voice is still amazing. P.S her mom left me speechless…. She sounded beautiful in the duet.
‘Taylor’s not a country artist”
@Ri Ri Loud
Ok, whatever. Taylor Swift’s got a box full of CMT and AofCM awards that say differently. Her music is pop inflected, and her songs get played on pop-radio, but that doesn’t mean she isn’t country. That’s like saying Lady Antebellum isn’t country because “Need You Now” crossed over.
@PJ
I have a feeling you’ll be singing a different tune about Only Girl not being WW #1 come Thursday when mediatraffic updates.
All The songs are awesome! Mariah is awesome! I can’t wait to see her special! But umm excuse me…A xmas album debuting top 4 in the middle of november with basically only limited tv appearances…..STFU! mimi is bomb and that ppl have to compare her to things like rihanna to try to get rihanna anywhere Mariah is!
Mariah needs to retire. Her jig is up. Everyone knows how fake she is.
SHE NEEDS TO TAKE A REST. THIS PROJECT IS JUST WASTING TIME. 🙁
Sit Down flop cow…!!!!
Your time is up! 🙁
@Champagne Slurpee
I never said i didnt like Mariah, i didnt even mention her in my previous post.. i was talking about Beyonce, and the fact that shes not an artist… as she just sings other peoples song.. shes dont write her own songs.. which only makes her a singer and not an artist. Mariah obvs is an artist, if she writes.
Hold on .. you say i buy into a fake, safe and nicely bundled, but you only know that i like Taylor swift, i dont think thats enough to say i only like safe music. I liike loads of different music, and sure Taylors swift muisic isnt daring, but she targets the t*** audience, so it doesnt need to be.
@Daniel
Sorry I was assuming and hoping you were one of those people who buys into Taylor Swift, Kesha, Katy Perry, Black Eyed Peas, Justin Bieber etc who specifically design their music to appeal to little 12 year olds. I can’t for the life of me figure why someone would allow a music artist to thrive based on a marketing formula as opposed to based on raw and true talent. I will have to see what kind of music Taylor Swift Starts writing next album because she can’t write high school diary songs for too much longer. I don’t hate Taylor Swift I think shes cute makes somewhat likable music but I just don’t see the hype that got her to sell over a million copies first week.
Mariah will be number one soon you just wait and see you silly dumb f****.
Why the F*** are you’s comparing rihanna to mariah please yall need to get a life.
Mariah can never be replaced or duplicated…….. where as rihanna can be replaced any day…. she can’t even sing, thats why she keeps changing her hair colour and image…. anyone can be the next rihanna all you need is auto tune and dress half naked simple as….. i wanna see rihanna sing an actual song dressed like a proper lady and not some kind of h**.
Mariah, your time is up!
Once you flop, you can’t stop!
Sorry, but no one wants to duplicate a flop queen like Mariah! Horrible sales, using pregnancy as a publicity stunt, how desperate can she be?
Flop queen!
MARIAH FLOPPY go sit down one of mariah careys album sold 25 million. thats only one album imagine how much she sold with all the other albums ……… rhinana can’t even sell that much with 10 albums
She is just too old for this.
A Flopped Album: considering so much hype with her pregnancy, abortion news and download contest from Mariah daily sucks!
Another FLOP for the queen of boring music !
56 000 is not good and the album will probably not sell more than 500 k after December.
LOL !
@Champagne Slurpee
Yeah, but teenages will listen to anything really, it doesnt matter if theres any meaning behind the song, or if the lyrics are bad.. if theres a good beat to the song.. then, theres a good chance a teenager will like it. I’m more of a rock fan myself
Country music is big, now you might see her as country music.. some say shes pop music, but the top 3 albums in america this week are all country music.. so it has a massive fan base… so i can see why shes sold the 1 million she has.
She cant keep writing songs about high school etc for much longer of course, her lyrics will have to mature… but they should do as she grows as a women. I supose a large part of the reason shes writing these kind of songs is cause her audience is of high school high age.
@MARIAH FLOPPY, Never liked her, well-done Lamb:
We’ll talk about that later…
LMFAOOOO at the lambchops that said this album will slay!!! #FAIL
FLOP

What a flop!
@ Ch… :
Yeah, yeah…
We’ll just let you think you’re right about that so we’ll prevent you from committing a public s******…
WTF is wrong with you guys? There are alot of retarded people on here! IT’S A CHRISTMAS ALBUM NOT A REGULAR STUDIO ALBUM! That’s amazing that she was able to sell over 50,000 of a Christmas album WITH BARELY ANY PROMOTION! I love Mariah, but I didn’t even know that this XMas album had even came out last week! I thought it was coming out in early December for some reason. How can anyone be a hypocrite when 50,000 for a XMAS ALBUM IS HARD TO SELL BUT 180,000 FOR A REGULAR STUIO ALBUM IS PATHETIC WHEN YOU’RE FAMOUS AS HELL (Rihanna!) Congrats Mariah!
Hold up. Someone PLEASE tell me why Taylor, Rihanna, Ke$ha, and Beyonce are EVEN MENTIONED WITH THIS POST?! smh. Beyonce is talented and succesful, and so are those other artists, but lets be honest. They are all different in their own way. NO WAY IN THIS GOD-GIVEN EARTH do they compare to Mariah. NEVER. If there wasn’t a MARIAH, they wouldn’t even be singing!
Oh, and to the ignorant haters that are calling her a ‘FLOP’:
1) Her previous xmas album (one of the best selling xmas albums of all time, and one of the best selling albums EVER in Japan) debuted OUT OF THE TOP 10. As a matter of fact, it debuted at 30 in its first week.
2) Her first xmas album had a first week sales of 45,000. And that was when people actually went out and bought CD”s too;)
3) Only Mariah can come back after 16 years, but out an album this amazing, and have it do better than her previous. (45,000 copies compared to 55,000)
4) In case you didn’t KNOW, merry christmas increased in sales tremendously each week after its release, which is not typical of other non-seasonal albums. Look at Taylor Swift. Her sales decreased by more than 60% !
5) Who buys xmas albums in early November? no one.
SO, this is a huge accomplishment. Only mimi can come back after 16 years and come back with better sales, even in this horrid economy. Just you wait, the sales will come piling in, and these stans will be using their beyonce posters as tissues 😉 and to the people thinking were just covering up, and that she truley is a “Flop,” wait and see.
AND you know you have way too much free time when your name is FAT, DRUNK, FLOP & UGLY MARIAH and Mariah Floppy. Get a hobby, some friends, a life? and I wouldn’t be surprised if its all the same person, ahahahha!
OH, and to the people saying that us Mariah fans are just full of “excuses”, its called the truth. We’re actually educated, and not brain-washed with ignorance. We know our facts, and soon, the album’s sales, popularity, and success, will speak for itself. Last thing,
@Viki
“More number 1’s does not mean “better”, “the best” or “better quality”, let’s get that straight. That is all you stans have to go on, cause truth is more than half of Mariah’s Numer 1’s are forgettable, and no one outside her stans know what they are”
HAHAHAH, thanks for my laugh of the day. Usually, when an artist accomplishes that, they must be pretty good/talented/better quality. And, Thats certainly ALL us mariah fans have to go on, right? 😉 Lord please. PLEASE, I BEG YOU, don’t make me whip out the list of achievments. Ke$ha’s melting everyones brains, haha.
@Bobby in FLOPgaria
You shouldn’t be talking about your thoughts on the net. We all know you and your fell Bulgarians love committing s******. Can’t wait to see that noose wrapped around your neck as you leap to your death when F****** keeps flopping and flopping. Even her “pregnancy” didn’t help garner any attention.
Poor cow!

@Lola
You stupid irate dumb b****!
It’s f****** November and as you lame ass lambchops keep hyping her overall sells why can’t she move units now? I mean are f****** kidding me with this 50K debut? Pitiful! and all the songs were NEW. I would’ve gave her a pass if it was a greatest hits compilation with like one song but no it was a brand new album with brand new songs. I mean, how is Oh Santa doing? Why doesn’t anyone care? Exactly! because she’s D-O-N-E!
Trent is just so pitiful! He’s hyping up a top 5 debut and even tallying up her top 10 debuts on the chart! LMFAOOOOO!! Oh how some of these 90 Diva worshipers crack me the f*** up!
She sells 56K first week but OH it’s okay because she has been in the ‘game’ for 20 years, blah, blah, blah *plays violin*
I found this horrible review on the album. This b**** has her facts all screwed up
http://www.examiner.com/contemporary-art-in-orlando/mariah-fails-to-deliver-with-merry-christmas-ii-you-review
Where are the lambs saying that this flop will have a hit album this year?
She is over! For sure, this desperate lipsynching D-list starlet will use her baby as publicity just as what she did prior to the flop album’s release!
Mariah Carey’s flop collection continues! Expect her to flop again because she is the queen of flop songs and albums! Where is “Oh Santa” in the Billboard Hot 100? Where are those delusional lambs saying she is the Queen of Christmas? Hahaha!
Newcomer Susan Boyle is expected to sell 240,000-260,000 next week with The Gift but poor forgotten flop Mariah Carey just sold 56,537 in her first week! What does that mean!?
The lambs were right about Mariah slaying, because Mariah will always slay us with flop albums now and forever!
LMAFO at all the rihanna stans calling mariah a flop .ok then let’s see how much loud sells then we can talk……ahaaaa isn’t mariah carey like the best selling female artist of all time?
i don’t even like mariah that much but atleast she CAN SING which is alot more than i can say for ET.
Back then 100,000 or more units sold was considered note worthy, but back then they didnt have piracy, and other illegal downloads and itunes selling music for 99cents. Today there are so many means of free download that “selling” even 10,000 units or complete albums (not just one song or single) is considered a success. Therefore selling over 50,000 units or the complete album not just a single song is a big deal…I mean ppl could have just downloaded a song they liked for free or bought it on itunes for less then a dollar, but to buy a whole album..that proves mariah is still the s***…comparing Rihanna to Mariah is an insult…b**** got her fame from a beat down…and her voice is all studio work and zero talent…the day that b**** can hit a whistle register and a 5 octave range is the day that you retards can compare her to mariah..but for now she is a sad battered, confused about her hair colored b****
