On The Obsessed Podcast this week, Gareth & Ghia delve in and run through, exploring both Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston’s musical work and their relationship—balancing admiration, collaboration, and the public narrative around them:
In this episode, we dive deep into the professional & personal friendship of Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston—two icons who defined an era of pop and R&B. Often portrayed as rivals by the media, their real-life relationship told a different story, one of mutual respect, iconic collaboration, and vocal brilliance. We explore their individual personas, the legacy of their powerhouse duet “When You Believe,” and how their relationship carried on for years after working together.
.
Join G&G as they unpack the range, the runs, the shade, and the sisterhood of two legends who redefined the so-called diva rivalry and celebrate the genuine connection between two of music’s most gifted voices.
.
