Her whole catalog of music is great (amazing in my opinion), but it's nothing different OR original. Mariah has always followed trends, made radio friendly singles and albums, and done whatever was needed to sell big.
Mariah will always be remembered as one of the greatest vocalists of all time, though. But a music legend? No way.
That word is thrown around so much here.

Awww. isn't it cute how ignorant + delusional you are sweetie
Her vocal style and singing ability have significantly impacted popular and contemporary music.
Her song "Vision of Love" been credited with bringing the use of melisma to modern music and for inspiring several artists to pursue a career in music.
Her influence on pop and R&B singers and American Idol / X Factor / other show contestants is undeniable
And you have the nerve to say that Mariah ain't original. Mariah writes + produces every song that she sings. Bitch she invented original.
"Due to the success and influence of Fantasy (remix), Carey is credited for introducing R&B and hip hop into mainstream pop culture, and for popularizing rap as a featuring act through her post-1995 songs." ---> whay you say again about her following the trends ???
