Review

'Music Box' showed us a whole new side of Mariah Carey in 1993, trading her earlier energy for something way more chill and grown-up. I'm obsessed with how she blended pop and R&B on this one - it's literally the perfect soundtrack for late-night feels 😭. Her cover of 'Without You' and that iconic 'Hero' track let her flex those insane vocals while hitting us with all the emotions. The way she connects through these ballads? Pure magic!

Though most of the album keeps things slow and sweet, Mariah didn't completely abandon her upbeat roots. Tracks like 'Now That I Know' and 'I've Been Thinking About You' give us little bursts of that classic Mariah energy we first fell in love with. This album was totally a game-changer for her career, helping her reach so many new listeners who might not have vibed with her earlier stuff. Sales went through the ROOF worldwide, making 'Music Box' one of her biggest commercial wins ever! This is Mariah showing she's not just a voice - she's a whole mood. 💯 - Eva
