The queen of Christmas

The queen of Christmas

Mariah? Now I am intrigued. I've heard of the name Darlene Love only in this thread. Who is she? One of Mariah's background singers? An aunt she mentioned in her memoir? The kids' nanny?

And why would YOU claim that she was the queen of christmas? Last time I checked you'd need to be in the Christmas entertainment genre in order to be labelled that.

Please tell me what you are talking about. I couldn't find anything when I googled that name either.

Everyone is selling their masters, and Mariah is buying them back from Sony. She is the best music act to stan for at this point. I hope she won't sell them to anyone in the future.

I hope the effect on streaming and sales will be massive with this type of virality.

MC owns her masters?

"I'm here to do anything we need to do. I own all my old masters," Carey says. "I don't think it's about 'cast the girl who sings the Mariah Carey style,' whatever that is. It's about casting a great actress with a somewhat similar look and just making sure the acting is there. Because we have the music – they can sing along to it."

Technically, that would mean she's a lot richer than people think, considering the masters ownership worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

For instance, Bruce Springsteen has sold his entire song catalogue to Sony Music in a deal worth $500m, according to anonymous sources speaking to Billboard and the New York Times.

The sale, which encompasses his recorded work and his songwriting, will give Sony ownership of one of the most admired bodies of work in pop and rock: over 300 songs spanning 20 studio albums plus other releases.

Yeah, I read that she now owns all her masters and that's insane.
Way to go Meemz.

[SomeonesUglyDaughter]

I guess its confirmed she has project with Peloton this Christmas they just retweeted her...

If Mariah has full ownership of her masters and will be using her own vocals to her songs in her biopic, then she should let JLo play her.

It is 7.7M in just 12 hours so it is very likely.

This looks like it's trending bigger than last year's I think... the original one she made a few years back is at 20 million.
Seems like this has a big reach as well.

It is now a cultural thing. She didnt even put the disclaimer about Thanksgiving like last time. She's owning it!

Maybe she didn't buy them. Someone here said Mariah's contract specified that her masters would revert to her full ownership after a certain number years. If that's true, then it would make sense for her to wait it out and only pay for what she created when she was with IDJ.

When she says that she owns all of her old masters, I think she means all of them, not just her Sony recordings.

The ITS TIME video is viral!

[Mckenry]

Lowkey wishing It's Time is a real song. An upbeat like AIWFCIY or CBPCH.

The ITS TIME video is viral!

I wish her new releases would get as much attention as well… 16.8 million views in 24 hours is insane!

Speaking of biopic, I think Leona Lewis would be a good choice to play Mariah.
