"Foo Fighters blasted through Someone's Ugly Daughter with Taylor Momsen on lead vocals. They followed up with Love is a Scam as Carey sang along from her front table. Carey was honored for her musical achievements and philanthropic efforts as MusiCares Person of the Year on Friday night, two days before the Grammy Awards. The award is given in the week ahead of the Grammys by MusiCares, a charity that supports musicians in need."
"She is one of one, longtime collaborator Babyface said. Mariah, you are every songwriter and producer's dream. You strike a lot of gold. You are a blueprint of a great songwriter. Back in 1995, Carey secretly recorded and co-produced the grunge album Someone's Ugly Daughter with her friend Clarissa Dane under the name Chick. It wasn't until her 2020 memoir that Carey revealed she was behind the project, singing background vocals while Dane handled lead."
"Stevie Wonder didn't perform, but he took the stage to tell Carey, The greatest thing about you and I is we have respect and love for each other. Grammy nominee Teddy Swims tackled Without You, the Harry Nilsson power ballad that Carey took to No. 1 in 1994. That was really terrifying, he said. British girl group Flo harmonized on Dream Lover, Billy Porter lent his unique interpretation to Always Be My Baby,"
Mariah Carey blended pop, R&B, gospel and hip-hop into hit songs over five decades. She stood and applauded when Foo Fighters performed tracks from Someone's Ugly Daughter, with Taylor Momsen on lead vocals. Carey was named MusiCares Person of the Year for musical achievements and philanthropic efforts, awarded the week before the Grammys by a charity supporting musicians. Babyface praised her songwriting and production, calling her a blueprint for great songwriters. Carey secretly recorded and co-produced Someone's Ugly Daughter in 1995 with Clarissa Dane under the name Chick, singing background vocals while Dane handled lead. Performers included Teddy Swims, Flo, Billy Porter, Jennifer Hudson, Busta Rhymes, Chante Moore and Spliff Star.
