Right Kev. Her first love is defintiely modern day hip hop. Cause that was even around when she was growing up, before she was making music. She saw what was moving in a popular direction and capitalized on it. She is a good business woman. Her number one inspiration is Stevie Wonder and that came directly from her mouth. Now go eat something.

So by your logic, people aren't allowed to like new music or feel inspired by new music because it wasn't around before they were born. You need to give up.

I'm not saying she doesn't genuinely love her hip hop music today. But what I am saying is her main inspiration comes from music of the 70s. Why do you think on TEOM we got ballads like Circles, I Wish You Knew, and Mine Again (though I loathe it). All very inspired by the first decade of her life.

Those songs are a far cry from "Hero" Mariah.
