Insightful, touching and inspiring

Let’s be honest, we would listen to her read a phone book in talking or singing voice. The depth and intelligence both mentally and emotionally are very apparent in her body of work and the breakdown of her lesser known songs is a rare look inside her life.

Portrait of a Songwriter

A great insight into Mariah’s creative process with a fantastic new version of her song Portrait.

An inside look at some deep cuts

Really fun and insightful share from Mariah on some of her more emotional lyric. Her catalog is so big she could do a series all by herself. Also really fun surprise at the end describing her dance remixes over the years which she rarely talked about in any other interview. Portraits is a touching song and the dance mix is great.

Love this we need more moments like this 💗 🐑

Hearing Mimi speak and go in depth about her lyrics is everything love it 🥹this audible is so beautiful the song writer you are mariah wow 👏🏻I truly can’t wait for the movie or series about your life ⭐️

Natural

She’s so natural, just speaking to us like we’re a friend. She expands on her music and touches on the feelings experienced which led to the creation of them. As a Lamb, it’s everything I wanted to hear. Give us more!!!!
