Mariah Carey, widely known as the \u201cChristmas Queen\u201d and one of the most iconic voices in music, is now in the running for a spot in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The legendary singer received a nomination for induction in 2024, and she recently shared her thoughts on this milestone with the Associated Press. While she acknowledged the honor of the nomination, Carey emphasized that she\u2019s not getting too carried away.<\/p>\n
She explained, \u201cThat\u2019s a huge honor. I don\u2019t know if I\u2019m going to win it, so I don\u2019t want to get too excited about it. So, I just want to say that, again, it\u2019s a huge honor, and I guess I didn\u2019t expect it. I wasn\u2019t really thinking about it. And here we are.\u201d It\u2019s clear that Carey, ever humble, is grateful for the recognition but is keeping her expectations in check.<\/p>\n
When asked about the long-discussed grunge album that fans have been hoping for, Carey seemed enthusiastic but cautious. \u201cI really want to, but I want to do videos, and I have just so many ideas for that,\u201d she said. While fans might have to wait a bit longer for a full album, Carey teased that she may release a few songs from it. \u201cI don\u2019t think I\u2019ll be able to pull it together by the summer, but maybe, maybe I\u2019ll release a few songs from it,\u201d she added, offering a glimmer of hope for her fans.<\/p>\n
Though Carey is more associated with pop and R&B than rock, she recognizes that the music landscape is evolving, with people now being more \u201copen to all different genres.\u201d She also reflected on how she sometimes feels like a rock star herself, jokingly saying, \u201cBut I feel like a rock star sometimes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Whether or not Carey ends up in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, it\u2019s clear she continues to push the boundaries of her artistry\u2014and her fans will be eagerly waiting to see what she does next, whether it\u2019s in rock, pop, or something entirely new.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
