About Mariah Carey
Born and raised in New York by her mother, a former opera singer
with the New York City Opera and a vocal coach, Mariah Carey began
singing at age four. By the time she was in junior high school, she
had begun to write songs. After her high school graduation, she got
her first big break, singing backup for Brenda K. Starr, a break that
led to her signing with Columbia Records.
Mariah Carey?s 1990 debut album launched an unparalleled unbroken
string of successes. Mariah Carey has sold more than 12 million albums
worldwide, was certified 8x RIAA-platinum and yielded a record-setting
four consecutive #1 singles: "Vision of Love," "Love Takes Time,"
"Someday," and "I Don't Wanna Cry."
The title track of 1992's quadruple-platinum Emotions generated her
fifth consecutive #1 single, placing Mariah Carey in the Top Ten
All-Time achievers of Most Consecutive #1 Hits. Emotions earned Mariah
Carey two Grammy? nominations ("Best Pop Vocal, Female" and, with
Walter Afanasieff, "Best Producer") and an American Music Award
("Favorite Female Artist, Soul/R&B"). On March 17,1992, Mariah Carey
appeared on MTV Unplugged, leading to the release of Mariah's sixth #1
single ("I'll Be There") as well as an EP which has been certified
triple platinum in the U.S. and has sold more than five million copies
worldwide.
In 1993, Mariah Carey released Music Box, an album which has sold more
than 24 million copies worldwide, has been certified ten times RIAA
platinum, and generated her seventh and eighth #1 singles "Dreamlover"
and "Hero" as well as the Top 10 hit "Without You." Mariah Carey
followed up with her holiday album, Merry Christmas, which sold eight
million copies worldwide shortly after its release in November 1994
and has been certified quadruple platinum by the RIAA.
Mariah's 1995 album, Daydream, debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200
Albums chart; generated three consecutive #1 singles -- "Fantasy,"
"One Sweet Day" (her duet with Boyz II Men which, having spent 16
weeks at #1, still holds the record as the longest-running #1 single
in history), and "Always Be My Baby" (Mariah's ninth, tenth, and
eleventh #1's) -- and has been certified 10x platinum. With Daydream,
she became the first female artist in history to have three studio
albums to each sell in excess of eight million copies.
Mariah Carey 's 1997 album, Butterfly, a heady sensuous mix of
contemporary R&B and pop, generated the #1 hits "Honey" (featuring
Ma$e & The Lox) and "My All" (her twelfth and thirteenth #1's).
Butterfly has been certified quadruple platinum.
In November 1998, Mariah Carey released her #1's album, a collection
of 13 of her chart-topping mega hits as well as four brand-new bonus
recordings: "When You Believe (from The Prince Of Egypt)," a duet with
Whitney Houston; "Whenever You Call," a duet with Brian McKnight; "I
Still Believe"; and "Sweetheart." #1's has achieved RIAA triple
platinum status.

Her 1999 release, Rainbow, featured Mariah Carey?s 14th #1 Hot 100
single "Heartbreaker," which also became her 6th chart-topping R&B
single. Mariah Carey has had more #1 singles than any female artist,
surpassing both the Supremes (12) and Madonna (11), and more #1's than
any currently active recording artist. She has had more #1 singles
(14) than any artist during the 1990s and seen more singles (3) debut
at #1 than any artist in history. With more #1 albums (4) than any
female artist in the 1990's, Mariah Carey was the first female artist
to see two of her albums (Music Box and Daydream) reach the 10 million
mark in sales and is the only female artist to have eight albums
certified triple-platinum or better (in Mariah's case, her entire
album catalog has achieved RIAA multi-platinum status).
In fact, Mariah Carey is the only artist to have had a #1 single for
every year of the 1990's. The last decade to have an artist hit #1
every single year was the 1920's when Paul Whiteman & his Orchestra
hit the top slot each year. (By the end of the 1920's, Whiteman had
become a Columbia Records artist.) With the exception of Merry
Christmas (from which there was no single release) and #1's (a
collection of her first 13 chart-toppers), Mariah Carey has hit #1
with the debut single from every one of her albums.
With the exception of her cover version of the Jackson 5's "I'll Be
There," Mariah Carey has co written all of her #1's, including
"Heartbreaker." With the exceptions of "I Don't Wanna Cry," "Someday,"
"Love Takes Time," and "Vision of Love," Mariah Carey has co-produced
all of her chart-topping singles.
Mariah Carey received 1990 Grammies for Best New Artist and Best Pop
Vocal Female ("Vision of Love"). The same year, Mariah Carey picked up
three Soul Train Awards: Best New Artist, Best Album (Mariah Carey)
and Best Single, Female ("Vision of Love").
A perennial favorite at the American Music Awards, Mariah Carey won
Favorite Female Artist/R&B in 1992; Favorite Female Artist, Pop/Rock
and Favorite Album, Adult Contemporary in 1993; Favorite Female
Artist, Pop/Rock in 1995; and Favorite Female Artist, Pop/Rock and
Favorite Female Artist, Soul/R&B in 1996.
Mariah Carey picked up her first Billboard Awards in 1991 for Top
Adult Contemporary Artist, Top Pop Artist, Top Album Artist, Top Pop
Singles Artist, and Top Pop Singles Artist/Female. In 1996, she won a
Billboard Award for Hot 100 Singles Artist of the Year and, with Boyz
II Men, a Special Hot 100 Singles Award for "One Sweet Day."
At the 1998 World Music Awards ceremony, Mariah Carey won an award for
Best Selling R&B Artist and the Legend Award for World's Best Selling
Recording Artist of the 1990's. She won her first World Music Awards -
World's Best Selling Pop Artist, World's Best American Recording
Artist, and World's Overall Best Performing Artist - in 1995. The
following year, she was presented with trophies for World's Best
Selling R&B Female Artist of the Year, World's Best Selling Overall
Recording Female Artist of the Year, World's Best Selling Pop Artist
of the Year, and World's Best Selling American Female Artist of the
Year.
Mariah Carey was presented with the Aretha Franklin Entertainer Award
and named Entertainer of the Year at the 1998 Lady of Soul Awards.
As of September 1999, Mariah Carey had sold more than 120 million
albums and singles worldwide and earned an astounding 84 RIAA gold,
platinum, and multi-platinum certifications for her singles, albums,
and videos. As one of the most popular recording artists of the 1990s,
Mariah Carey has provided an ongoing soundtrack to the decade. With
the arrival of Rainbow, she continues to give voice to the emotions of
our age.
