WELCOME BACK LAMBS!
This week on The Obsessed Podcast, Gareth & Ghia dive into one of the most revealing and emotionally charged chapters of Mariah Carey’s autobiography, ‘The Meaning of Mariah Carey’ — the section known as “Sing Sing.”

This part of the memoir doesn’t literally center on prison, but the title evokes something just as intense: emotional confinement, control, and survival. Mariah opens up about a period in her life where fame, power dynamics, and personal relationships created a sense of entrapment that was both psychological and deeply personal. It’s a raw exploration of what it means to lose autonomy while the world sees only glamour.

We unpack how Mariah uses metaphor and memory to describe this chapter, highlighting her resilience, her evolving sense of identity, and the quiet strength that carried her through. The conversation also touches on how this period shaped her artistry and public persona — and why reclaiming her narrative matters so much.

Expect thoughtful analysis, a bit of Lamb perspective, and an honest look at the complexities behind one of pop culture’s most iconic voices. This isn’t just a story about fame and fortune — it’s about survival, self-definition, and ultimately, freedom.

This episode of The Obsessed Podcast, Gareth and Ghia dive into the news that Mariah Carey has listed her iconic New York City penthouse for sale.
.
The legendary status of the apartment, especially after THE unforgettable appearance on MTV Cribs in 2002
Mariah’s over-the-top luxury aesthetic, from the famous candlelit bathtub moment to her glamorous closet.
.
The emotional significance of the home, which she bought in 1999 and lived in for decades but now selling the property—reportedly for around $27 million

G&G also reflect on how the penthouse became part of Mariah’s mythology as the “elusive chanteuse,” symbolising her rise, success, and unapologetic extravagance.
