Mariah is an icon and already a legend. You can hate on her or dislike her, or even not like her as an artist, but her status is already cemented.
She said Brandy "as a potential, yes". I love Brandy but she will never be considered an icon, that's ridiculous.
That's what we were talking about.
The long pause and her answer that had nothing to do with the question.
I think she knows that Brandy is done commercially, but to ignore her 90s legacy and only say negative things about her would be horrible. Brandy is washed up and half-crazy, but that’s not all that she is or was.
As for the pause, Dionne is in her 80s. Maybe she had to gather her thoughts? I’m nowhere near her age and have to do that. If someone were to ask me to speak eloquently about what Mariah means to me and discuss her impact, I’d have to organize my thoughts, too.
I really think y’all are seeing something that just isn’t there. She had the most praise for Mariah. Beyond her rendition of Say A Little Prayer, her being Whitney’s cousin, and her calling Nikki Taylor a hussy on The Apprentice, I don’t know much about her.

I'm surprised with the reaction from some lambs on Dionne's comments. I thought they are quite positive about Mariah....she said she likes her music, that Mariah is a great songwriter and hero is one of favs. Maybe Mariah is not her #1 fav but tht's okay. I didn't the long pause as an insult. Like what banksy said, she defintely needed to gather her thoughts just to ensure tht she said the right things?

It's easier for some of us rather than looking for the info in another thread.
We can use the spoiler option in any case.
Cool!
Hopefully the song is entering on the Rhythmic Airplay charts, so she can have that fourth consecutive decade charting on the format.
She could achieve it (maybe) with anothe track, but let's secure this!

It would be nice to reach the top 40 as Billboard's chart starts from 40.
It may have etched into top 50 this week!

That chartmariah user is something else lol. Mariah's Where I belong. It's a Busta song and she is the feature.
Cool to see this making a wave on rhythmic. Busta is pushing it a lot." And i think you should take a second just to look at your reflection
Baby maybe you're the problem "

It's the same level of ignorance... if someone would dodge around the question if Madonna were the target.. like: do you think Madonna is an icon? - "Well, I like XY song and she is a good songwriter!" - BUT Charli XCX that's... she has a god given talent in her throat and is a quadruple threat... lol.
no. Dionne was out of the loop and maybe she really doesn't know of Mariah's impact in the music industry and as a vocalist, but then that would disqualify her to even utter an opinion on either woman.
It really gets on my nerves that we have to try and find reasons of why Mariah might really not be that good... I mean we have The Rolling Stone Magazine which is consistently pushing the narrative of how Mariah is an OK singer... but not really good. We don't need that from other acts.
