Mariah Carey has claimed officials at the Recording Academy "toy" with her over Grammy Awards.
During the latest episode of the Las Culturistas podcast that aired on Wednesday, co-host Matt Rogers argued that the Believe singer should have received more Grammys over the course of her career.
Despite earning a whopping 34 competitive nominations, Mariah has had only five wins.
"You don't have enough of those, by the way," he declared, to which the superstar agreed, "They scammed me. They toy with me."
Mariah went on to note that she was particularly surprised to find that 1997's Butterfly wasn't a big winner at the prestigious prizegiving.
"It definitely has very special significance to me. I think it's probably my best album," the 55-year-old revealed.
"It has zero accolades, I think," she added jokingly. "I love that album. It has a certain feeling when you listen to it. It's just got a lot of diversity. You go from Breakdown to Butterfly to My All."
In addition to her five Grammys, Mariah was honoured with the special Grammy Global Impact Award at the ceremony staged last February.
Elsewhere in the conversation, Matt and co-host Bowen Yang drew comparisons between Mariah's 2005 album The Emancipation of Mimi and her 2018 offering Caution.
Accordingly, the Emotions hitmaker indicated a follow-up could be in the works.
"I think it's coming in the future. I hope you like it," she smiled.
