The Emancipation of Mimi [CD]

Mariah Carey's career is truly the stuff of legend. Beginning her recording career at the age of 20, Mariah has since become the best-selling female performer of all time, with an incredible 15 #1 singles and multiple Grammy awards. Along the way she became the only artist to top the charts in each year of the 1990's, and with 'Heartbreaker', she pushed ahead of the Beatles as the artist with the most cumulative weeks spent atop billboard's hot 100 singles chart. Mariah's new album features the songstress writing and co-producing with such a-list names as the Neptunes, Kanye West, and R. Kelly among others. The album, which is lyrically very personal, showcases Mariah's stunning voice, prolific songwriting and incredible versatility. This is fully evident on the first single, 'It's Like That'. Island. 2005.
