Maybe so but Whitney's voice is much more likable universally and at her peak can sing circles around Mariah.
Sadly though, people prefer a voice that doesn't sound like it has a race, if you get what I mean.

Whitney could yell circles around Mariah. When it came down to TEH TECHNIQUE, Whitney was good, but Mariah was better. Whitney was a screamer for a good portion of her career. Mariah never was.
Whitney Houston is who she is because she created a pop-gospel singing style. The sensibilities of a pop balladeer and singer, but with the ability of a gospel singer. That's why her voice was universal.
Whitney and Mariah both have good technique. Whitney was never a screamer.
Dude,
Whit whit was a technician before. But she deteriorated into a screamer for the new millennium. Mariah Carey has also deteriorated, but she never became a screamer.
I go for the former, ATRL goes for the latter unfortunately.
Me too. Being a great singer is more important than being a great voice and vocalist. That being said, Whitney and Mariah are two of the greatest singers ever, but Aretha is just....
Mariah's voice is also much more diverse than Whitney's was. That is also something to put into play when judging their voices. Whitney's voice is unmistakable had almost unmatchable power in it's peak but Mariah's voice excels in more areas than Whitney, in my opinion.
