Mariah's Diamond Award: Best Selling Female Artist

[@jenpot25]

Without MC the music industry is boring! She deserve the fame, the awards and all because she worked hard for it. Nobody compares to her artisty!

Mariah is without a doubt a golden voice that will not be replaced anytime soon

[@victorb2696]

She is considered "The Most Successful Female Artist Of All a Time" because they formulate: Album Sales; Single's Sales; #1's Albums & Singles.. Etc. so in those terms Mariah does triumph over Madonna, but in album sales alone, then Yes Madonna has more, she actually has sold around 40 Million more albums, but you must also take into account that Madonna debuted in '84, Mariah came to prominence 6 years later.

Mariah IS a universal artist. She's sold over 200 million records during her entire career and I really doubt only 200 million Black people bought her albums. You don't have to speak a language to enjoy music and Mariah has plenty of fans worldwide. Yes Madonna has sold more but she's also been out for longer and if she had won this award you certainly wouldn't be calling it fake. You don't have to like Mariah but you can't deny her success.

@SuperBadassbarbie Oh Please just because The Dream helped her co-write her last album doesn't mean she does not write her stuff. Mariah was writing songs when the dream was pooping his diapers.

But let's not forget the fact that many Mariah's singles have sold PRETTY well honey. And that means, counting from Thank God I found you, 15 million copies old. And well, if we count from 1999, that would be 8 more millions thanks to Rainbow, and 3 million singles sold= 50 m. Taking chances just sold 3 m, 500.000 more than E=MC2.
