Whitney was written all over Mariah's first three albums. She was a clone from the start. But after she left Tommy, she began to follow trends and lost a great percentage of her audience when she tried to be "Black" to appeal to that market.
But if we're talking overall impact, Mariah doesn't come close to Whitney's.
