Mariah Carey, known as the "Songbird Supreme", got candid about the time when she released her album The Emancipation of Mimi.
The 56-year-old songstress was “annoyed” when her classic album was labelled a “comeback” by music lovers, as dished by People.
Mariah reminisced about the time she was not ready to call the 10th studio record her return to music career because: “how many comebacks do I have to have?”
With the passage of time, the five-time Grammy winner accepted the description, calling it “somewhat accurate.”
The legendary musician disclosed that the “very special” tracks, which turned 20 on April 12, are not well-known. She believes “people can discover various songs and kind of get to know the feeling of that album.”
In an episode of Footnotes, the All I Want for Christmas Is You hitmaker opened up about the process of creating one of the songs We Belong Together with Jermaine Dupri. The video was a continuation of the love triangle introduced in It’s Like That.
The Yes, and? crooner was “excited to be able to tell a story that spanned over two music videos,” by bringing two “sonically different” melodies together.
Mariah Carey became famous due to her exceptional vocal talent. The American singer is notable for her five-octave vocal range and distinguished singing style. She usually uses her signature whistle register.
The diva has been awarded with several awards including Billboard Music Awards and five Grammys.
