Sis, I love you, lambs and Mariah but that numbers are inflated as f÷#$. These would probably true if you combine the albums and singles in that era. Example. Music Box actually sold 27-28 million in hard sales worldwide but if you include the accompanying singles of that album, total record sales for that era would be 30+ like what Mariah said in one radio interview where she said "records". And she probably meant the combined sales of albums and singles from that album which is 32+ million. 27-28 million in album sales and 4-5 million in single sales.
Based on certifications, educated guesses, Mariah's album sales stands at 150-160 million range, 50-60 on singles. So she's probably max 225 million in actual sales somewhere along the lines of 210 million if not inflated.
I feel you but this makes me actually sad.
