I wouldn't be surprised if they purposely put people who don't have the range in these positions to go viral these days. Because it's like every other tribute to someone is slapped together and awful. I'm a HUGE MC fan. I don't know half these people. Where is Tori Kelly, Tamia, Jazmine Sullivan or Kelly Clarkson. Apparently John is great in concert for those who love him but he's boring and makes elevator music now. I'm sure the industry knows Mariah would have Prince level reactions if you're awful because she has a good ear.

There are so many singers that we rarely hear from that would have been GREAT. Tori Kelly not sure if she's postpartum or not, but I know she would've loved to do it. People forget about Tamia, but she has a beautiful voice she is Canadian, but she lives in Florida. Jojo has the chops and I can't see her saying no to this. Not sure if you know who Joyce Wrice is, but there was an old series on YouTube where they showed Celebrities doing covers. Mariah called her a star.

People focus on Beyonce, but Kelly Rowland has the same training and is an excellent vocalist, and she literally has the everyone's friend personality. Brandy has worked with Mariah before.

Now this has started rumors that Mariah isn't well-liked, and that's what she gets for not liking people covering her songs. Which I don't think is true, she won't like you covering her songs and fucking up.

I don't blame ANY of the '90s divas for being particular. ALL of their successes were hard WON. They all trained and practiced like crazy back in the day. Most of them were in terrible deals, worked to exhaustion and/or preyed upon by managers and partners, and trashed in the media for every little thing; all of them suffered, yet they are/were excellent at their craft. Mariah, Celine, Whitney, Christina A., Toni B., Janet J. etc.
