In reply to Sarah Says.

Yes, I agree with everything you are said but you also have to remember who CONTROLS the MUSIC/MEDIA industry (which includes RADIO, TV,MAGAZINES etc). Mariah Carey has always been treated differently than say Brandy or Monica for several reasons. With MC now on American Idol, she will be given the same positive frequent press coverage given to Jennifer Lopez. J-LO went from being called a "HAG" (literally) in the media to making the cover of People Mag as the "Most Beautiful Woman In The World" after getting the American Idol gig. MC's horrible song and crappy video will be widely published 1) because she is MC and 2) because of her new AI post.

I love me some Brandy and pray she gets a chance to showcase her talents. There are many talented artists out there that don't get the recognition they deserve! IMO....
