since many lambs are ranking mariah’s albums in description, i will do the same (thread)

13. e=mc2

easily her worst album and the beginning of her artistic decline

vocally this album isn’t the most challenging as songs like touch my body and i’m that chick don’t really have much belting

the production is cheaper and lyrically this album is okay but not amazing

i don’t really enjoy any of the songs even though there are some nice songs like cruise control, migrate and i’ll be lovin’ u long time... the only einstein song in my playlist is cruise control

best song: cruise control
worst song: too many to name

i will say i do like how e=mc2 experiments with some new sounds that mariah hadn’t tried out before

12. miamtec

this album is vocally mariah’s worst as it’s her introduction to autotune... the belts and whistles just don’t sound real

production wise this album is also awful and cheap

songwriting wise this album isn’t great either

i ranked this album above einstein because there are actually some enjoyable songs like beautiful and the art of letting go

11. caution

this album is definitely overrated by lambs... it’s a huge improvement from miam but i’ll go over my issues with it

production wise this album is way better than her last 3 albums but i hate how she layers her whispering over her singing in the lower register

her singing in the lower register and her whispering doesn’t mix well together anymore... it ruins songs like with you

vocally this album is also a huge improvement from miam... same thing with the songwriting but i just don’t enjoy the album that much... it aged quickly

overall the album is ruined by the vocal production... i also really hate a no no

best song: giving me life
worst song: a no no

10. music box

this album was a very important part of mariah’s career and doesn’t deserve the hate it gets from stans... that being said, the album is boring for the most part

it’s great in terms of vocals, songwriting and production

but the instrumentals overpower her vocals at many times... the ballads can be very repetitive but some of the dance tracks are nice like i’ve been thinking about you

best song: without you/hero
worst song: all i’ve ever wanted

9. glitter

this album is a soundtrack and it’s also her most experimental

there are some great songs like if we, never too far and reflections but a lot of the upbeat tracks are messy and mariah is overpowered by the features

mariah being overpowered is noticeable on tracks like don’t stop and lnadjsml but loverboy, if we and the ballads are all great... if we is one of her best songs
vocally this album is fine... some tracks aren’t great vocally but she hits a g5 on loverboy

there are many covers on the album so not much can be said about songwriting but the songs she wrote are just fine

the production on the upbeat tracks is messy and could be way better

best song: if we
worst song: lnadjsml

8. memoirs of an imperfect angel

the production on this album is extremely cheap and this is her worst album production wise

lyrically this album is great and one of her best

vocally this album is good as well but could be better

the 2nd half of the album is very nice and i love the use of preludes/interludes... this album would’ve been one of her best if it had good production

best song: it’s a wrap
worst song: betcha gon’ know

7. the emancipation of mimi

i didn’t expect to put this album so low in my ranking but i prefer the upcoming albums more

the production on this album is great and a huge improvement from charmbracelet
the vocals on this album are good and a huge improvement from charmbracelet

fly like a bird is vocally one of her best... fly like a bird is her all time best song

the songwriting can be rather generic on some tracks but this album was made specifically for a commercial revival so it doesn’t matter too much

all of the songs are very nice

best song: fly like a bird
worst song: it’s like that

i would like ilt if jermaine/fatman weren’t overpowering her

6. charmbracelet

i initially didn’t like this album but it grew on me a lot and it is one of her most personal... it has some great songs

production and vocal wise... this album isn’t great but it’s manageable

songwriting wise this album is great and one of her best

best song: subtle invitation/through the rain remix

worst song: through the rain (original version)

5. daydream

this album is another very important part of mariah’s career

everything about the album from production and songwriting to vocals is great

the tracks very much resemble a daydream in terms of lyrics, vocals and production

my only criticism of the album is that some of the tracks can be a bit repetitive

best song: long ago
worst song: forever

4. emotions

i don’t tolerate emotions slander... this album is vocally her best and has so many great songs

the songwriting and production are great as well... my only criticism of this album is the same criticism i had for daydream

best song: can’t let go/make it happen
worst song: and you don’t remember

3. mariah carey

one of the best debut albums of all time... this album really is the blueprint for vocals and has so many great songs

some of the production/songwriting lacks in some areas but the songs/vocals make up for it

best song: i don’t wanna cry/you need me
worst song: prisoner

2. butterfly

one of the best albums ever made... it’s phenomenal in all aspects

best song: my all/outside
worst song: the beautiful ones

1. rainbow

her best album without a doubt... it has the perfect mix of upbeat songs and ballads... it is also her most personal album

her crying while performing petals should say something

best song: all of them
worst song: none https://twitter.com/thnkgodifoundu/status/1248528863988035585">https://twitter.com/thnkgodif...
