Mariah Carey Albums Ranked: Thread
So for this Ranking I am going to be doing all of the studio albums and not the Christmas Albums (Although this will include Glitter but it is treated as a Studio Album). So Let’s get this started with The Lowest album and that is....
13. Glitter ✨
I personally don’t like this album at all. Besides Everything going on at the time and the Movie, This album is just not that good in a sense. While some of my favorite songs by Mariah have Features, None on this album are good to me ESPECIALLY LOVERBOY (1/2)
I know I’m gonna get some hate for this but Loverboy to me is her worst song. It sounds like a mess and it sounds super annoying. The only complement thing I could say about this album is that Lead The Way is the only good song on here. Overall it’s a Bad Album. (2/2)
12. Emotions 💧
I was originally gonna keep this one short because I don’t have a lot to say about this album. It’s an Okay Album but there are songs that I would skip when I listen. For the longest time Emotions was the only good song to me on here and it took maybe 3 or 4 (1/2)
More listens for me to like more songs. But it still is boring to me as it feels like it’s much longer than what it is and a few other albums I’ll talk about have this problem. Overall it’s an Okay album. But I will skip this album (except for Emotions) (2/2)
11. E=MC^2 💯
This was the first Mariah album that I listened to Fully. In fact this album has the first song by Mariah that I listened to that wasn’t AIWFCIY and that is Touch My Body and it’s still one of my favorites by her. That is as much good things I can say (1/2)
About this album because It’s not really all that. Besides TMB only 3 other songs I actually like. The rest of the album is something I definitely don’t want to listen to. There aren’t really tracks that stand out to me that I don’t like. (2/2)
10. Memoirs
Now I can finally give these albums some praise. This was originally supposed to be Higher up the list but it does have 1 major problem. It’s the fact that I feel that it’s too long as this is one of her longer albums. While I like all the tracks on this album (1/2)
Except for Standing O, It just feels that some songs of this album feels like Filler such as Inseparable and MTJF. Those songs feel like they are just there to take up more space. But besides that it’s a Good Album not the best but Good. (2/2)
9. Me I Am Mariah
This album gets a lot of hate by the Lambs due to the Era being a Mess and a few other things. But in reality this album is Pretty Good. Sure there are songs like Cry. And Supernatural that I don’t like but it makes up with songs like Faded and You’re Mine (1/2)
I honestly don’t have anything else to say about this album other than that it’s Better than what people make it out to be and while there are some bad songs there are more songs that make up for it.
On a side note I really wish they had this album on Vinyl. (2/2)
8. Mariah Carey
When I first listened to this album I thought that this was her worst album to date. But then I listened to it more and I missed so much magic this album had. The only songs I don’t like are AIYM and Prisoner (Not a Fan of Mariah Rapping). Besides that (1/2)
It’s an amazing debut album with classics like Vision Of Love (which inspired many Famous Singers today) and My Favorite off the album Someday (which Mariah Hates). Overall it’s one of the best Debut albums of all time (2/2)
7. The Emancipation Of Mimi
Originally this album was going to be lower on this list but I decided that for this album and another album I’ll be talking about later that the Era’s of them would be a factor in where they place. But nobody can deny how popular this album is. (1/3)
And I can definitely see why it was popular as this is another Amazing album. This album was needed after everything that happened before and with 2 commercially Failed albums. It made Mariah a Legend again and she did it with a good album. (2/3)
There is only 1 song I don’t like which is Get Your Number and this has some of my personal favorites by her like Shake It Off and It’s Like That. There are some underrated song too like Say Somethin and Stay The Night. This is one of the Best Comeback Albums Of All Time. (3/3)
6. Charmbracelet
This is an album that has Mixed Responses when it comes to the Lambs. Some like it some Don’t and I’m with the ones who like it. Just like with Debut I didn’t like this album at first but it grew on me as this is very personal to Mariah. (1/3)
But I will say this I can see why this album flopped but I personally think had it been released 1 or 2 years later it would have been a hit. There are tracks like MSG and YGM where I don’t necessarily like them but then there are songs like Clown and The One that are (2/3)
Underrated. In fact this entire album is underrated and should have had Justice like how Glitter did. But that’s for another day. But overall it’s a Masterpiece that was overlooked due to things that happened with Glitter. (3/3)
5. Caution
I Don’t Have anything to say for this album but just that it’s what we needed after MIAM. It’s a Perfect Modern R&B Album. I love all the songs. Not a Single Skip. And That It. (1/1)
4. Music Box
So I Said earlier that there would be 2 albums that would also be ranked on Era’s. This is the other album. I originally wanted to have this as Number 2 on this list. But I realized that this Era was more of Tommy’s (her ex husband) Vision of Mariah (1/3)
This wasn’t really a Good Era in terms of Mariah to me. But besides the Era as a whole I absolutely love this album. It gets WAY too much hate but it’s mainly cause of the Era. I like All of the songs on the album. Everything Fades Away is Okay. Do You Think Of Me is (2/3)
My 2nd Favorite B side. Dreamlover is one of my Favorite #1s and one of my favorite songs by her. There is no Bad songs and every song is a Bop. Overall it’s an Overhated album that is deserving as the title of Best Selling Mariah Album. (3/3)
3. Daydream
This One is Definitely up there. Its one of the most Iconic Albums of the 90s and for good reason. Some of her most well known songs came from here like Fantasy and ABMB. Even the B Side song Slipping Away is praised with the Lambs (Also My Favorite B Side) (1/3)
And some of my Favorites songs come from this album Like Fantasy, Long Ago, and Melt Away which I feel on a really personal level especially with someone I have a crush on. However, there are 2 songs that are Bops but at first I wasn’t big Fans of them, OSD and WISY. (2/3)
I even went as far to say that OSD was her worst song. But I don’t think that now but I think this album could have been done without this (besides another song would have topped the charts as long from this album). Overall I absolutely love this album and it’s So Iconic. (3/3)
2. Butterfly
This album is widely know as her best album and is usually on the Top of People’s list. This album has so many good songs including what I consider to Not Only Be Mariah’s Best Song and my 2nd Favorite song by her but also the Greatest Song Of All Time which is(1/3)
BREAKDOWN!(Yeah I know y’all like The Roof more but this is what I find better). There is no bad song on this album and this has her best songs. Maybe not The Beautiful Ones but the problem with that song is that it’s too long and it should have been 4 minutes.(2/3)
I also didn’t Like My All when I first listened but then it grew on me and now I like it. But besides that it’s an amazing personal album By Mariah. It’s mainly due to her having more Freedom around the time. That’s all I need to say but I do find 1 album better than this. (3/3)
1. Rainbow 🌈
This is what I’d consider to be my Favorite album by her and her best (drag me). This album is so hated by the Lambs like on rare occasions would there be someone who likes this albums and then other just not like this album due to the “rushed” production. (1/4)
Sure this album was made faster than any other album by her but I don’t see where it’s rushed. Sure you could say Did I Do That? definitely sounds rushed and I still don’t see it. It’s mainly cause of that song is why this album gets a lot of hate. But in reality (2/4)
There is not a bad song on this album (Once again I’m Finna get dragged). I personally find Heartbreaker to be the best song on the album and my Favorite song by her of all time (MY OPINION). This album is also personal to Mariah with songs like Petals and CTTA. (3/4)
Songs like TGIFY, How Much, and X-Girlfriend get so much hate as well but I love these songs and don’t see the hate behind them. We even have Bliss which is a song Mariah can only sing (and many other song are like that). But overall This Is An Overhated and Underrated Album(4/4)
And that’s it with this Thread. So Tell me what do you guys think of this ranking. Is it Good or does it officially make me the most tasteless lamb out there? (I might get some hate for not going more depth on some albums but this is my first Album Ranking so Cut me some slack).
