Mariah needs massive re-certs in South Korea, I feel. Queen of South Korea indeed.

[Shaka]

the main version (long version)... altogether, it will reach 6 million on tomorrow's update. <3

It will also probably just break 200k daily tomorrow. Numbers are looking good.

Yes!
5M the main version, that's pretty amazing!
Also daily numbers are increasing, I'm sure it's gonna surpass the 200K mark by tomorrow

[Shaka]

Mariah needs massive re-certs in South Korea, I feel. Queen of South Korea indeed.

She needs re-certs in several places tbh!

[stevyy]

She needs re-certs in several places tbh!

But so does everybody. We are lucky that Sony is currently paying for some updates of her catalogue. I feel bad for Madonna fans because she is currently getting nothing from her former labels. She deserves them re-certs too.

[Carlito]

Janet Jackson is the most successful international Western diva in South Africa , with 10 #1 singles spending a total of 35 weeks atop the chart.

Whitney Houston is second with a total of 6 #1 singles spending 25 weeks at the summit of the chart.

Céline Dion has 4 number one songs in the chart , Mariah has 3 , Madonna has none.
