Mariah Carey Vs Ariana Grande - Same Age Vocal Battle (28 Years Old)

[@rt7776]

I do like Ari's singing voice. But Mariah's singing voice is on another level.

[@hunterchampion5433]

Mariah just has so many tones it's truly incredible. Her ability to command airy and vocal weight is insane.

Ariana is great, but Mariah's voice and tone are so unique, she's legendary.

2 totally different singers. A chest singer w/ nodules vs a heady mix singer without nodules. I'd say the mixed high notes & head voice goes to Ariana Grande. The lows, chest dominate belting voice & whistles goes to Mariah Carey.

Low notes: Mariah easily Ariana's lower register improved a lot, she has really solid lows for soprano, but Mariah is much better, her voice is much deeper than Ari's so it even makes sense. Mid Belts: Mariah Ariana's mid belts got a lot stronger with better support, but still not on Mariah's level. Upper Belts: Ariana Ariana's ease is unbelievable and her technique here is also ok, Mariah may has better technique but not enough ease and consistency like Ariana Falsetto+Head Voice: Ariana Ariana's falsetto is best in music industry right now, her and Xtina's. Mariah's head voice is also beautiful but upper register is Ariana's thing Whistles: Mariah Do I need really explain? Mariah is queen of whistles, Ariana is princess of whistles Ariana is slowly coming into her prime right now, she barely performed these last 2 years, which is such a shame because Positions is amazing album that deserved much more. This battle could've been more interesting if there were more examples for Ariana. Hopefully AG7 era will be full of concent.

​@@gooddool429 I 100% hold her accountable for that. While she stopped engaging in blackfishing years ago, she is, indeed, guilty of it, contrary to what most other Arianators think.

A real Asian would know that this is a case of stereotyping. Olivia Rodrigo is an example of a celeb who is of actual Asian descent and Ariana looks nothing like her.

Interesting to see that Ariana, though possessing adequately healthy vocal chords, has rasp that seems to be creeping in her upper belts (Mainly in E5/F5, and even in her D5 notes here), unlike pre-2018 where she would virtually have no rasp even throughout her belting range. I feel that since Ariana is such a light soprano voice, the more she pushes for "power" the more her rasp will creep in. Mariah's case at 28 was... As every lamb will resoundingly echo... REST!! 1997-1999 is when we needed Restriah? But give Mariah credit for still giving iconic vocal moments and an impeccable tone despite overworked vocal chords. One last thing... I have yet to hear a singer replicate Mariah's Tone.. But there are plenty of girlies who replicate Ariana's tone pretty well, however, much credit to Ariana for being the current pop singer who is unmatched in belting ease in that arena.

She could be leaning into it for all we know, unless she herself has stated that she does it intentionally. imo, I think she may benefit from embracing a more naturally raspy tone in her upper belts because now her belts have more emotiveness to them.

5:25 is really good... Haven't seen that!

[@felixney2412]

Mariah always. 😍

[@disgusttt4087]

i love ari and mariah so much

[@mysterycharm03]

ariana has single texture in her voice, mariah's countless like it mutates beautifully everytime she hits a note.

[@onedollarbleach6891]

Lows: Mariah no contest Belts: Ariana (they were tied until like C5/C#5 but after that definitely Ariana. Honestly, Mariah was just overly raspy, off pitch, and too constricted/tense here) Hv: Tie Whistles: Mariah Now based on the categories alone Mariah took more technically, but in general tbh I think Ariana took this as a better vocalist overall. Ns but she just was in a better state vocally than Mariah was at 28. The consistency and control was lacking but I will say when butterflyriah was on, *SHE WAS ON* If the whole era was filled with performances like if only you knew/somewhere over the rainbow, to be real, and chain of fools it would’ve been over for Ariana Lmao

And the technology between these decades. Don't forget that. Back then you couldn't hide every imperfection easily.

[@Gievyji]

Tbh Ari won this one. Mariah was doing good up to C#5 but then Ari well preserved mix took over. Those D5’s 2:21 and E5’s 3:49 are legendary. Mariah was unfortunately struggling with her mix during this time. A very chest dominant mix and nodules had began to take their toll.

[@elastictears]

This would’ve been more matched if there were other performances besides the vevo one Low notes:Mariah Mid Belts:Tie Upper Belts:Ariana Hv/Falsetto:Ariana Whistles: Mariah and it’s not even close😭

[@what2549]

Falsetto - Mariah High Falsetto - Ariana

[@elastictears]

@@what2549 yeah looking back mariah won head voice

[@regularwhitneyfanhatingonm5050]

it's clear that Ariana's voice is healthier. She wins in most high belts. But Mariah was great with what she had at that moment. That tone is still unmatched

[@Gui-mt2wu]

Mariah won lows, whistle, agillity and mid Belts…(up E5) and she won in some of the. F5!! Since she can have support on all then even the F#5

[@gillianomotoso328]

0:34 - Ariana actually sings an E3 here.

Ariana grande 🔥 Mariah sound strain above Eb5

[@jayb.6705]

The first low note you showed for Ari was an E3, not a Bb3, and I think the first low note for Mariah was a C3 not a Bb2 but I may be wrong on that one

[@vanish8295]

for mimi it was a bb2 actually

[@TheQueenOfLambily]

Ari yes,Bb2 IMO is correct

[@zorroluffy3483]

Arianna is awesome but Mariah makes her sound basic. Nonetheless I love both. It is almost like you compare by similarities and Mariah is the greater of the two. Maybe Arianna is as distinct to me.

[@musicboxcarey1993]

Mariah❤❤

[@Riah-bw5tk]

0:30 Ariana’s note there is an E3!!!! not a Bb3

[@imaginevocals400]

I remember when Ariana started back in 2013 ppl was always saying "she's gonna lose her voice in one year singing like this, with this bad technique" and look where we are now, 28 and her voice still preserved, still resonating, her notes still bright, ease and with full vocal chords conection, meanwhile Mariah was completely shaky even at mid belts, her voice was dry, her belts couldn't resonate, her vocal chords couldn't close properly, she just wasn't vibrating. YEAH she had nodules, but she had nodules BC of her OWN technique, it was destructive. And even puting both side a side, hearing Mariah strugle with painful dry notes and no proper vocal chords vibration ppl still assume her technique was better than Ariana's. I absolutely LOVE both, yes i'm an arianator but Mariah is without a doubt the artist i listen the MOST, she's my favorite vocalist... but in studio versions. Her voice became so inconsistent bc she overused with a destructive technique (in a long-term), which doesn't mean she's a bad singer, I'm completly sure that her voice and technique was way more DEVELOPED than Ariana's, BUT both techniques are different. Mariah gave her all, her full capacity, she literally sacrificed her voice to be the best she could be bc that's what she WANTED, and she did it, she was, she was untouchable and still.... in her prime, bc that sacrifice had a price and it came early. With Ariana we always felt she was holding herself (still), her full potential, with a light voice with ease approach to reach those notes, some hate that approach bc "sounds boring, she lacks power, lacks depth, she lacks soul"... but we just can't deny that this is what is preserving her voice and that's what she also always WANTED. There's no right or wrong, there's choices, they did their best to reach their goal and each goal had its prize, but also its loss. Ariana will NEVER top Mariah's vocal prime and Mariah will NEVER top Ariana's vocal longevity. we should respect their choices bc both did an amazing job reaching their goals *just clarifying, for any grammar or english mistake, english is not my first language

[@emekajohnson2630]

You remember when the lambs accused her of faking her whistles? The lambs have always wish for her downfall. Ari vocals age like fine wine. Ariana is resting and taking Broadway vocal lessons. Her next performances are gonna be killer.

[@EricSmith-qc6oy]

This is the most insightful comment I've seen in this thread. 👏🏾 I swear people like to put down Ariana without using common sense.

[@bridgethuggins-brown7641]

I think this is an unfair comparison because ariana singing is studio recorded, and mariah carey is unclear live performances so It's harder to hear her, but I've seen Mariah Carey's incredible performances and she will always be my fav

[@Gievyji]

Ariana’s clips are all live, they’re just better quality than Mariah’s obviously because hers were recorded on old cameras

[@Gievyji]

3:34 is so resonant

[@clndion3478]

Wow! I actually consider this era of Mariah as one of her worst vocal moments. But I didn't even think that it could still match Ariana, considering that Ari has no vocal issues. Wow, Mariah!

[@Sttephy30]

That's bc Ariana has a weaker chest voice. Mariah's voice, even in 1998, still had a solid chest pull with weight.

[@axelito6342]

Butterfly is actually REALLY REALLY GOOD vocally !

[@emekajohnson2630]

@@Sttephy30 Mariah vocals are way more fragile. She sounds like this after doing only 13 shows (Daydream era) compare to Ariana 101 shows.

[@Sttephy30]

@@emekajohnson2630 Ariana still has a weak chest voice w/ no weight. Her doing over 200 shows, should've made her chest voice stronger but it hasn't tbh. That's bc Ariana really doesn't sing in full chest, she stays in heady mix, which is what allows her voice to do many shows. Ariana would never be able to sing HEAVY chest.

[@emekajohnson2630]

@@Sttephy30 How would you know? Also listen to her at age 28 compare to Mariah? If not singing chest voice and restraining from belting is preserving her voice then what’s the problem? Mariah vocals are extremely fragile, she has said it herself. I mean, look at her at Ariana age, she sounds a mess and her performances were inconsistent. Ariana technique is working for her, the evidence is right there.

[@kuroror847]

If I have to make an objective judgment... I simply can't make an objective judgment... When Ari is involved, I think as an arianator and I always support Ari!

Not trying to disrespect Ariana since she's also a very talented singer, but Mariah helloooooo...!!!! She's the blueprint for so many female singers that come after her. Without Mariah, there would be no Ariana and that's a FACT!

[@lulubrazy]

which recording of my all is this from at 2:02

[@np4511]

its so hard to compare because these are both gifted women singing songs in two completely different generations. with that comes different styles of songs, singing, runs etc. if they were both the same age in the same era of music it would be an easier comparison. i heavily believe if ariana was 28 in the 90's, she would produce very similar songs to mariah and hence they would be on par in terms of musicality/wonderful runs/great head voice. despite this, i think they're both the best female singers within that generation, mariah being the best in the 90's and ariana being the best in 2022.

[@Catastrophèé25]

Mariah Carey is a masterclass vocalist and she proved her musicality already throughout her career, on the other hand Ariana is also a great vocalist.. but MC is incomparable! that's it.
