With a career that now spans almost thirty years, Mariah Carey‘s influence on the music industry is no doubt immeasurable- birthing the vocal stylings of acts who have now risen to become her very own contemporaries.
Now, as word of drama surrounding the release of her new LP ‘The Art of Letting Go’ begin to part from industry lips, the icon may be pleased to learn that she’s found a fan in Urban Pop upstart, Ariana Grande.
Grande’s take on the ‘Honey’ beauty?
Watch below…

I wish the bitter ass lambs were more supportive of her instead of acting jealous and insecure like their fav!
Let me recall….. 0:52 mark. So be nice lamas.

Mariah is the queen! 18 #1’s and 200mil sold. #facts. Lambs have receipts! When will your fav??
Every last one of those 18#’s got there by airplay only. Airplay that her record company paid for each and every time. Madonna has her beat by like 100 Million records and Whitney will forever be regarded as the most talented and influential female vocalist of all time, Celine does the best lip syncing ever.So what exactly is mariah queen of? The Queen of fools, perhaps? …Never mind..Queen Of Payola!
Shes the Queen of Ribs & Biscuits.
F** who cares. Mariah has IS influential by several relevant vocalists in the industry and has talent under her wing. Something Madonna lacks. So goodbye.
All 18 huh, even when she changed labels? If that were th case they would have just bought the other three so she could pass the Beatles record. C’mon don’t be stupid.The songs were legitimately good.
I’m a Huge Mariah fan, But The Queen is M.A.D.O.N.N.A. and you Know it, Deal With it. 😉
check Billboard for more Facts and receipts.
DUH!
A Queen without a release date.
Where are the ze lies?
Mariah’s biggest achievement is getting her husband to send cheques to send radio stations. She’s the queen of payola and that’s why Def jam won’t put her album out. She can only win when she pays for play.
Yes gurl you read my mind
Um, look at who you Stan for. If Mariah is queen of payola, Rihanna is the princess.
Rihanna’s play comes from fan requests and video streams so stop with the reach. Next time brings receipts!
Oops I just saw that you stand for Bey so that explained your reach. Carry on with the Rihanna bashing then. It’s the only way the Beyhive can feel good about themselves these days!
No B****, that’s a Big fat Lie and you know It, we Request, We buy singles and some of us “not me” promote her to death.
Rihanna need no payola or “clear channel” deal for her songs to get played, she’s the queen of airplay effortlessly.
So the Navy can request Right Now and boost it on radio but can’t get it in the top 70 on iTunes? That’s payola my dear. You can buy radio spins but you can’t pay people to buy your singles.
Queen of payola yes!
Ariana is so sweet. Not contrived or egotistical at all lets hope it stays that way and she is only inspired by Mariah’s voice not her diva ways.
remember nicki said this about kim and stole her crown…
So many woke up this morning to a big bowl of bitter flakes and sour milk. #angrybirdteas

Mariah Carey is a legend & Queen. As for the people saying she uses PAYOLA how do you explain the ALBUM SALES did she pay for those too….
No that would be Ms Whitney Elizabeth Houston. Manriah will always be in her shadow.
Ugh
This little b**** is a nobody! Who?
MOOriah COWrey = Queen?
*Chuckles Uncontrollably*
“Dame Whitney Elizabeth Houston” is the standard of all female vocalists in 21st Century Popular R&B/Soul music.
Whitney Houston’s ‘Whitney/Whitney Houston/I’m Your Baby Tonight/THE BODYGUARD SOUNDTRACK/Waiting to Exhale/The Preacher’s Wife/My Love Is Your Love/I Look To You vocals >>>>>>>>>>>>>> MOOriah COWrey’s shrieks, screams and shouts.
5 ocatves? B**** PLEASE… How about singing with SOUL and EMOTION without yelling through every f****** song? Something of which MOOriah can’t, and will never be able to, do.
That’s why the B**** can’t sing now.
BYE NOW.
whitney was singing through a crack pipe on I look to you so lets not say them vocals are better then daydream butterfly or any mc vocals plz
I love me some whitny and celine
but mc will always have better range tone diversity to her vocals she does things with her voice no one can
whitny was just a better performer and had more power
Umm Whitney and Mariah are vocal queens. Ariana will forever be in their shadows….
Bitter ass bottom f**. This comment had nothing to do with Ariana.
LOL Im Booked!!!
Queen of lip syncing & stuffing her face yes.
Wannabes always start nice and humble until they get famous and think they’re better.
Like Who ?
be Brave and Drop Names.
The likes of Gaga, those kind, it’s not even worthy mention them anymore.
oh, you’re Slick. 😀
I know What you meant in the first “Answer”, But you’re Slick.
gaga is a Complex type of Personality.
Thank U.
She Didn’t lie, Mariah used Every Piece of her Vocal chords and Gave us amazing songs filled with Heavenly Vocals, Love her.
WH voice was Stronger and Overall was “The best”, But she ruined it with her drugs abuse,and Her discography isn’t stronger than MC’s, I’m sorry, FOR ME, mariah was a better artist, she wrote, produced, remixed, etc… W didn’t do that, So Mariah is Amazing and still doing it big.
I don’t get why anyone will hate mariah, ppl don’t like real people anymore ?
Ariana is wise for Putting the Drama to rest, But I wanna see her personality more in her music, That’s all.
#Random: is it only me or Ariana’s talking voice is identical to Christina aguilera’s ? that’s s***. 😀
It’ s her fake diva attidude that people do not digest, overall i think they know that musically she is superior to Whitney and Celine, she knows more about music, vocals is about taste, she knows how to control her voice but at the same time that control takes away some emotions while singing, like she is more into give the audience a hight note more than an emotional performance, Whitney at her best, gave both without straining.
As for Ariana, i’m yet to watch an interview with her, not even this.
@s******:
MC is R.E.A.L. , I know those People, like you will tell them “for example” that they are arrogant, they will go: yes baby, So what ? she was “labelled” a Diva and she’s acting according to it, because she’s one, I adore this type of people who are not afraid of being themselves.
Madonna is a DIVA too, but Just leos, everything when necessary. 😉
Mariah just made it her Thing, may become annoying at times I agree, but she’s being herself and funny with it, she just want to see perfection everytime she put her eyes on something, including herself!!! There are people like her in every corner, we all have this grandmother who are like that, get over it.
and For me, mariah gives me emotions while live, Boy don’t lie, “MY ALL” is Everything when she performs it live, goosebumps and all!!
I Love W, But For me, MC is slightly better For Reasons I already mentioned before, I do appreciate People who do everything themselves and independent.
God forbid a Madonna Stan giving MC her FULL credit ? because of their FAMOUS fued ? and Joining the WH club just because there was no fued bet. W and Madonna ? i don’t get you 90’s Fans.
all are pop ESSENTIALS to me, But Overall, I love Madge the most after Rih!
I give her full credit, and i gree with everything minus the real Mariah, if she’s real then it must be hard to spend a day with her, hell even an hour.
@S******:
Ok, we heard from the People who work with her, But this what happens when you want “Perfection” according to her, I don’t work for her, IDC.
her music is Great, isn’t it ? so where is my problem ? we know we won’t spend a day with her, so ?
Her music is great but it’s not the best IMO, i respect her but do i think she’s the greatest thing ever, NO and this has nothing to do with the fact the i am a Madonna fan, it’s my point of view as a music lover, which i think i am.
Trying to reduce Maria’s success to payola is delusional. Her vocal talent is OBVIOUSLY & UNQUESTIONABLY there.
But with Rihanna in your avi you should know its not just vocals that helps people sell.
@M.C Haters/W.H stans… STOP IT.
Both ‘W.H’ & ‘M.C’ were two of the GREATEST popular vocalists of their era/generation (1985 – 2000), and that will forever be a fact, but to demean M.C’s vocal talent in favour of W.H’s (and vice versa) is just outright idiotic. Both W.H & M.C sang songs that the other would find hard to ever replicate.
Will M.C ever be able to sing ‘I Will Always Love You/I Have Nothing/Run To You’ the way W.H did? NEVER.
Will W.H ever be able to sing ‘Vision of Love/Emotions/Anytime You Need A Friend’ the way M.C did? NO.
They are both completely different singers =
W.H was raised singing Gospel music in a Church from the age of 8 and was singing back up/touring with her mother by the age of 13.
M.C never went church – but grew up listening to Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight & Patti Labelle and was trained how to sing by her Classically trained, Opera Singer- Mother.
W.H’s voice had “Soul, Power & Showmanship”.
M.C’s voice had “Range, Diversity & Versatility”.
END OF.
I don’t get how y’all say Mariah got to #1 with payola. When 12 out of those 18 number ones went platinum, mind you we’re not talking about iTunes days, we are talking about ‘walk to store and buy records’ days. Half of Madonna’s number ones only went gold. And then again explain the record sales. Explain how she sold over 200 Million albums. Bye. Mariah is Queen and y’all will deal.
Of course all of you hater wanna hate on the QUEEN! Baby when Whitney Houston died she died BROKE AND OWING EVERYBODY so the only title she holds is of BORROWING MONEY QUEEN! MC HAS 18 no#1 and Whitney only had 12 mariah sold way more then her and her networth is way more than hers was so with that being said when will be or ri get those struggle sales up Mariah doesn’t nor has she wet toured the way MADONNA does since that’s what everybody always wanna talk about and she worth half of what’s she worth without over half the touring and clothing and everything else she has so what does that say about MC she is the queen
Respect the dead, Fool.
Whitney Houston is better.
She Didn’t lie, Mariah used Every Piece of her Vocal chords and Gave us amazing songs filled with Heavenly Vocals, Love her.
WH voice was Stronger and Overall was “The best”, But she ruined it with her drugs abuse,and Her discography isn’t stronger than MC’s, I’m sorry, FOR ME, mariah was a better artist, she wrote, produced, remixed, etc… W didn’t do that, So Mariah is Amazing and still doing it big.
I don’t get why anyone will hate mariah, ppl don’t like real people anymore ?
Ariana is wise for Putting the Drama to rest, But I wanna see her personality more in her music, That’s all.
#Random: is it only me or Ariana’s talking voice is identical to Christina aguilera’s ? that’s s***. 😀
Mariah is the queen. #Fact. Whitney expired in 1995. #Fact. While Mariah continued to slay 18 years later. #AnotherFact.
Nothing against Whitney but her fans always tried to downplay Mariah.
your First #fact is Questionable, making it Not a fact.
and What do U mean “Expired” you piece of Crap ? Legends never expire, they have legacy, they influence, Respect your damn self.
and then you ask why Mariah get disrespected, it is because Silly F**** like you.
you must take this “Expired” comment………. you have no credibility in my eyes from now and on.
Haters of MC can say Mariah expired since “Glitter” , you don’t fire with fire.
How can one say Mariah expired since Glitter when TEOM (released 4 years after Glitter) is 6x platinum in the US?
I have major respect for Whitney but her fans have been pressed since Vision of Love.
“you have no credibility in my eyes from now on.”
LOL, Okay then. I don’t know you so I honestly don’t care what you think of me…
Madonna is the queen of touring, but Imo, Whitney (1st) and Mariah (2nd) are the true queens of album sales. Madonna sold more because she has released much more material. And Celine? that b**** has like 30 French/English albums and barely sold more records than Mariah.
Mariah’s discography is longest than Madonna’s and in less short of time. Don’t fool yourself.
Are you trying to say Mariah released more material than Mariah? You’re wrong. I’m not just talking about studio albums…
Are you trying to say Mariah released more material than Madonna? ****
Yes, more albums overall in a short time, it takes Madonna a lot to released 12 f****** studio albums.
You didn’t really get my point. If you look at the individual sales of each album, you can clearly see Whitney was the top female albums seller. If she had stayed on the right track, she probably would have become the best selling female of all time.
Madonna and Celine has released many records and that is why their record sales are so high.
Okay now i get it but every artist has THOSE golden years and then….BOOM not anymore, Whitney and Madonna and The Beatles share the same title “MOST ALBUMS IN THE LIST OF BEST SELLING ALBUMS OF ALL TIMES, WITH 3, EACH ONE, MJ has 5, Madonna has 4 but RAY OF LIGHT isn’t certified enough, MARIAH and BRITNEY both are there too with 2 ALBUMS, so i think no matter how much Whitney albums sales were big, we should also count singles and Madonna wins in this, CELINE has also big sales when it comes to albums, so those LEGENDS are all there when it comes to sales, STELLAR.
PAYOLA??no offence but when your faves have no album on the soundscan top selling albums of all time,you have no room to point fingers at MC….I don’t get the hate especially from WH stans,bitter since 1990?I think so…
*plays vision of love*
Whitney Houston will always be the Queen of Vocals to me. She had soul, power, and was an entertainer. She put on a show with her voice. Mariah, in my opinion, never sang with soul. She’s a different type of singer as someone already mentioned. They’re both great in their own ways and I’m glad Ariana looks up to both of them. She is a well trained vocalist already but she can learn alot from them, Whitney especially.
Girl you really want here to learn a lot from Whitney? Lol JK.
So this post is really becoming a stan war between Mariah and Whitney??? lol ok. As if we were in 1994 or something. And it didn´t make sense back then either.
Whitney and Mariah are that kind of untouchable queens. Deal with it. Can´t undertand how anybody can like one of them and hate on the other one???
Some news with more common sense: Celine Dion´s new single debuts tomorrow!
30 year career? What? Sure, let’s round the 23 years since the debut and make it 30, okay.
She is in her 24th year now.
