Mariah Carey Praised As ‘Remix Queen’ During #BlackMusicMonthChallenge

Once the discussion got rollin’, it was clear that Mariah was DOMINATING the conversation with her revamped hits, such as the “Heartbreaker” remix that features Da Brat and Missy Elliott.

Literally Mariah Carey on every single remix. She’d be the studio adding whole new beats and melodies, vocals, lyrics and features…the girls just aren’t of this calibre anymore pic.twitter.com/9YPpNgCmik https://t.co/h01hYMLt1i

Another noteworthy track that found itself in the conversation is the “Bad Boy Remix” to “Honey” with Mase and The Lox.

While listing some iconic Mariah Carey remixes, her “Fantasy” revamp featuring Ol’ Dirty Bastard (ODB) got a particularly good amount of love.

One Twitter user went as far as proclaiming, “Mariah was the blueprint for the merging of pop + hip-hop.” PERIOD!

Taking it further: a remix that changed HISTORY.

Fantasy feat. ODB stripped the pop elements of the OG to create a laidback banger. Mariah was the blueprint for the merging of pop + hip-hop; a formula artists like Taylor, Beyoncé, and Katy Perry still emulate. https://t.co/CWgTjoBVDV pic.twitter.com/NxroZcR9Mi

Aside from “Fantasy,” another fan said that an additional bop from “the remix queen” is the version of “Always Be My Baby” that features Xscape and Da Brat.

The remix queen has a few and I know “Fantasy” is going to be mentioned a few times but the remix to “Always Be My Baby,” is one of my faves. Whole new song and video for that remix. pic.twitter.com/tT04Dy7Yln

The “Make It Last Remix” to “Thank God I Found You,” which features Joe and Nas, also made the cut.

Mariah's "H.A.T.E.U." remix not being on streaming is a crime against culture #BlackMusicMonthChallenge pic.twitter.com/6opQAWb2OC https://t.co/CwQhlIkQI5

Finally, users included the “Loverboy” remix with Ludacris, Shawnna, and Da Brat.

While giving the track a shoutout, one fan proclaimed, “One thing Mariah gone do..she gone get some rappers.” IKTR!
