What better way to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's 5th Studio album 'Daydream' than but unpacking and giving you another album review?!
This week on The Obsessed Podcast, Gareth & Ghia dive deep into Mariah Carey’s landmark 1995 album Daydream.
Unwrapping the era that changed the game—when Mimi effortlessly bridged pop, R&B and hip-hop and handed us anthems that still glow today.
.
From the unforgettable hook of “Fantasy” to the heartfelt balladry of “Always Be My Baby”, and the record-shattering collaboration “One Sweet Day” with Boyz II Men, to the album’s lush production and fearless vocal runs — we cover it all. We’ll explore how Daydream marked a turning point for Mariah as a songwriter and producer, how it expanded her sound palette, and why its impact still reverberates in today’s music scene.
.
Whether you’ve been a Lamb from day one or you’re just discovering the magic, this episode is packed with nostalgic feels, passionate takes and deep-cuts seen through two very different Lamb perspectives.
Lambs! Grab your butterfly wings, press play, and let’s revisit the classic that dared Mariah to fly before
