Actually Jermaine praised Taylor in that interview. He said she is an amazing artist and really intelligent. He also said that Taylor is able to sell loads of albums these days and the fact that no-one else can just shows that Taylor is a star and there no other stars around currently.

So while you attempt to drag Taylor in this thread, it fails because Jermaine clearly complimented Taylor twice in that interview alone.

It also shows Taylor's impact such that King specifically asked Jermaine Dupri a question about Taylor. He didn't ask about Katy or Miley or Gaga.

The interview was just another example of Taylor getting more praise from her industry peers.

Can she have #1 albums and songs in other parts of the World beside America and Europe? No

Can she produce her own songs? No

Can she stop following trends and use mainstream producers (Martin, Shellback) to finally reach global success? No

Her music has no originality and is not innovative.

OT: Why would you compare a legend to Taylor She doesn´t have the ability to sing.

[AxelFox]

No but she's the first Taylor Swift and she's doing it very good! They're different artists with different type of music!

[IVY]

i do not know why larry brings Mariah's name??!! they r nothing alike.anyway.............

NO she won't simply because she can not sing, write, produce music as well as Mariah, and we all know that Mariah is not creditted enough unlike taylor where she is over loaded with praise by the powerful white lobbies of media and critics. we know the whole story and it is not a taylor case. this always happens in the show business .saying this does not mean that one can deny Taylor massive success and her impact on her target audeince she is after.

[Rumbler]

No. Mariah is a singer-songwriter, Taylor is a songwriter.

[Grown K]

Never.

So you dont even have to sing anymore to be the new Mariah

since the "new" mariahs of the past couldn't do the trick: Ariana, Leona

the industry is clinging to all possibilities.. like. "we take anybody at this point, even not so great singers as long as the success comes remotely close, we like"

Mariah had 9 consecutive 3xp albums in the 90's. 6 consecutive studio albums to be certified 4xp or better. 5 consecutive albums being certified 5xp or better

what kind of string: The consecutive best sellers

3xp: 9 (1990,1991,1992,1993,1994,1995,1997,1998,1999) all releases
4xp: 6 (1990,1991,1993,1994,1995,1997) studio albums
5xp: 5 (1993,1994,1995,1997,1998) studio albums + compilations

Taylor could win more awards, sell more albums, even get more #1 singles (which she won't), she will NEVER be the next Mariah.

No one will ever be the next Mariah.
