Mariah Careys career is truly the stuff
of legend. Since she began her career,
Mariah has since become the
best-selling female performer of all
time, with an incredible 15 #1 singles
and two Grammy Awards. Along the way she
became the only artist to top the
charts in each year of the 1990s, and,
with "Heartbreaker," she pushed ahead of
the Beatles as the artist with the most
cumulative weeks spent atop Billboards
Hot 100 Singles chart.

Possessing a spectacular five-octave
range, Mariah has proven that she is
equally at home with sweeping ballads
and pop, often incorporating elements
of dance and hip-hop into the mix.
Perhaps even more impressive, she composes
all of her own material.

In May 2002, Mariah signed an
exclusive recording contract with the
Universal Music Group's Island Records.
In addition, Carey has formed her own
label, MonarC Music. The first release
for MonarC Music will be Mariah's
forthcoming studio album set for release
on December 3rd, 2002.

Mariah's new album features the
songstress writing and co-producing
with such a-list names as Jimmy Jam and
Terry Lewis and Jermaine Dupri 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, the
sweeping epic ballad, "Through The Rain"
which is a perfect example of what
Mariah does best.

Born in Long Island, NY, as the daughter
of a former opera singer and vocal coach
-- and named after the song "They Call
the Wind Mariah" from the popular
Lerner and Loewe musical Paint Your
Wagon  Mariah began singing at the age of
four, and was writing her own songs by
the time she was attending Oldfield
Middle School. She moved to New York
City, the day after graduating from
high school. Honing her songwriting
skills and lending her vocals to several
local acts, she first garnered industry
attention when singing backup for
Brenda K. Starr, who gave Mariahs demo
tape to Sony Music Entertainment chief
Tommy Mottola at a party. As legend has
it, Mottola played the demo on his ride
home and ordered his driver to
immediately return to the party so that
he could meet the young singer. Soon
afterwards, Mottola signed Mariah to a
Columbia Records contract.

Mariahs self-titled Columbia debut,
released in 1990, spawned an extraordinary
four #1 singles: "Vision of Love," "Love
Takes Time," "Someday" and "I Don't
Wanna Cry," and led to Grammy Awards
for Best New Artist and Best Female
Vocalist. The following years album,
Emotions, was another smash, with the
title track scoring her fifth
consecutive #1 single and two other
titles  "Cant Let Go" and "Make It
Happen"  reaching the Top Five. Her next
release, 1992s MTV Unplugged EP, scored
another #1 with her cover of the
Jackson 5s "Ill Be There."

Music Box (1993) became her biggest
seller to date, with "Dreamlover" and
"Hero" again topping the charts, and was
followed by 1994s Merry Christmas,
which contained another hit with "All I
Want for Christmas is You." Daydream
(1995) contained the club-friendly
"Fantasy," which debuted at #1  making
Mariah the second artist in history,
and the first female performer, to
accomplish that feat. The follow-up
single, "One Sweet Day" (recorded with
Boyz II Men), followed suit and stayed
at the top of the charts for a record

Butterfly (1997) revealed an even
greater hip-hop flavor than its
predecessor, scoring hits with "Honey"
and "My All." The following year
witnessed the release of greatest hits
collection #1s, which included a new
song, "When You Believe" (from the film
The Prince of Egypt), a duet with
Whitney Houston which paired the two
most successful female recording artists
in pop history. Rainbow, with its
chart-topping tune "Heartbreaker,"

In 2001, Mariah signed with Virgin
Records, which released Glitter, the
soundtrack album to the film of the same
name, with Mariah in her first lead
acting role. She has also been featured
in the films The Bachelor (1999) and

Mariah has garnered many accolades
throughout her career including 2
Grammy Awards, 8 American Music Awards,
Billboard's "Artist of the Decade" Award
and the World Music Award for "World's
Best Selling Female Artist of the
Millennium" to name a few. Mariahs many
accomplishments and unprecedented career
success stand as a testament to her
creativity and talent. That they
represent only the beginning is all
the more impressive.
