Japan / New York

Mariah Carey, född 27 mars 1969 eller 1970 i Huntington, New York, Under inspelningen av skivan började Carey lämna pop- och R&B-genrerna för att istället skapa hiphop-influerad musik. Den nya riktningen märktes tydligt vid utgivningen av Butterfly, som lanserades i samband med skilsmässan från Mottola 1997.

Carey lämnade Columbia år 2000 och skrev på ett kontrakt med Virgin Records värt 100 miljoner dollar. I samband med skådespelardebuten i filmen Glitter (2001) fick hon ett nervöst sammanbrott och fick läggas in på sjukhus på grund av utmattning och dehydrering. Glitter blev en kommersiell flopp och Carey tvingades lämna sitt skivbolag, något som ledde till en nedgång i karriären. År 2002 skrev hon på för Island Records och efter en mindre framgångsrik period återvände sångaren till toppen av försäljningslistorna med albumet The Emancipation of Mimi (2005). Skivans andra singel, We Belong Together, blev Careys mest framgångsrika under 00-talet och den utnämndes till "Song of the Decade" av Billboard. År 2009 återupptog hon skådespelarkarriären i filmen Precious; Carey hyllades för sin gestaltning och hon tilldelades priset "Breakthrough Performance Award" vid Palm Springs International Film Festival, samt nominerades till flera utmärkelser av Black Reel Awards och NAACP Image Awards.

Under sin karriär, som pågått över två årtionden, har Carey sålt över 250 miljoner skivor och hon rankas som en av världens bäst säljande musikartister. Vid World Music Awards 1998 korades hon till 1990-talets bäst säljande artist och hyllades även som millenniets bäst säljande kvinnliga artist 2000. Enligt Recording Industry Association of America är hon den tredje bäst säljande kvinnliga artisten i USA med 63.5 miljoner certifierade album. Efter utgivningen av singeln "Touch My Body" (2008) fick Carey sin artonde listetta i USA, vilket är fler än någon annan artist. Utöver sina kommersiella framgångar har Carey vunnit fem Grammy Awards, 17 World Music Awards, 11 American Music Awards och 31 Billboard Music Awards. Carey är i grunden en klassiskt skolad sopran. Hon är känd för sitt exceptionellt stora röstomfång och blivit välkänd för sitt så kallade wailande (improviserad koloratur). Carey har erhållit titeln "Songbird Supreme" av Guinness World Records. Hennes röst och sångstil har haft en betydande inverkan på många av dagens pop- och R&B-sångare.

Biografi

Tidiga år och motgångar (1970—1987)

Carey föddes i Huntington på Long Island i delstaten New York.

Efter separationen flyttade Alison med sin pappa medan de andra två barnen fortsatte att bo med sin mamma.

När Carey studerade i high school blev hon tillsammans med Gavin Christopher som delade hennes drömmar om att bli musiker. Låtskrivarduon behövde en assistent som kunde spela keyboard: "Vi ringde till en person som inte kunde komma. Av en slump hittade vi Ben

Karriärstart och debut (1988—1992)

Allteftersom Careys vänskap med Starr växte, ökade samtidigt hennes intresse för att hjälpa Carey.

Carey påbörjade arbete på sitt andra studioalbum Emotions 1991.

Liksom efter utgivningen av debuten, undrade kritiker om Carey skulle turnera för att marknadsföra sitt material.

Hennes första äktenskap, Music Box och Daydream (1993—1996)

Tidigt under 1993 började Carey arbeta på sitt tredje studioalbum Music Box.

Music Box tillbringade en längre period på toppen av albumlistor i flera länder och blev, efter en tid, en av de bäst säljande skivorna i värlshistorien med en internationellt försäljning på 32 miljoner exemplar.

Careys fjärde studioalbum, Daydream, släpptes 3 oktober 1995, och var en kombination av pop-influenserna från Music Box med långsammare inslag av R&B och hiphop.

Skilsmässa, ny image, Butterfly och Rainbow (1997—2000)

Efter utgivningen av Daydream och framgångarna som följde började Carey fokusera på sitt privatliv som föll samman.

Vid sekelskiftet började Carey arbeta på flera olika projekt.

Under våren 1999 började Carey arbeta på sitt sista album enligt skivkontraktet med Sony, hennes ex-makes skivbolag.

Glitter, Charmbracelet; personliga och professionella motgångar (2001—2004)

Efter att hon fick en Billboard Music Award med utmärkelsen "Artist of the Decade" och en World Music Award i kategorin "Best-Selling Female Artist of the Millennium" avbröt Carey sitt samarbete med Columbia och skrev på ett kontrakt värt 100 miljoner dollar med Virgin Records (EMI Records).

Den 26 juli samma år las hon abrupt in på sjukhus på grund av "extrem utmattning" och ett "fysiskt och mentalt sammanbrott".

2002 fick Carey en roll i independentfilmen WiseGirls och skådespelade tillsammans med Mira Sorvino och Melora Walters vilka spelade servitriser på en gangster-ägd restaurang. Filmen hade premiär på Sundance Film Festival och mottog mestadels negativ kritik. Trots detta prisades Careys gestaltning och Roger Friedman ansåg att hon var "nya millenniets Thelma Ritter" och skrev: "Hennes repliker flyter på och hon lyckas få publiken att skratta på alla rätt ställen."

Återvunnen popularitet med The Emancipation of Mimi (2005—2007)

Under 2004 fokuserade Carey på att skapa material till sitt tionde studioalbum, The Emancipation of Mimi (2005). Hon jobbade mest med Jermaine Dupri men även Bryan-Michael Cox, Manuel Seal, The Neptunes och Kanye West.

Den 25 september satte Carey ett ytterligare rekord när hon blev den första artisten att samtidigt ockupera de två högsta platserna på Hot 100-listan (R&B-sångaren Ashanti nådde samma bedrift redan 2002 men krediterades endast som en gästartist på andraplatsnoteringen). "We Belong Together" behöll förstaplatsen medan uppföljaren , "Shake It Off" intog platsen under.

För att marknadsföra skivan åkte sångaren ut på sin första turne på tre år; The Adventures of Mimi: The Voice, The Hits, The Tour. En live-DVD, The Adventures of Mimi, släpptes i november 2007.

E=MC², sitt andra äktenskap, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel och skådespelargenombrott (2008—2010)

Under våren 2007 hade Carey börjat jobba på sitt elfte studioalbum, E=MC², i en privat villa i Anguilla.

E=MC² debuterade på förstaplatsen på Billboard 200 med 463.000 sålda exemplar; hennes högsta första veckas försäljning i sin karriär.

Den 20 januari 2009 framförde Carey "Hero" när Barack Obama mottog presidenttiteln i USA.

Under 2009 sågs hon som en socialarbetare i filmen Precious en tolkning av novellen Push (1996) av Sapphire. Filmen och Careys prestation, mottog övervägande positiv kritik av recensenter.

Merry Christmas II You och moderskap (2010—2011)

Efter inställningen av Angels Advocate meddelades att Carey skulle börja jobba på sitt trettonde studioalbum.

I maj 2010 avböjde Carey sin planerade roll i For Colored Girls, en filmatisering av pjäsen For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf och meddelade att hon istället skulle fokusera på sin hälsa.

Efter födseln avslöjade Cannon i en intervju med Billboard att Carey hade påbörjat sitt arbete på ett nytt album och att hon inspirerats av sina första två studioalbum.

I oktober 2011 meddelade Carey att hon återinspelat sin låt "All I Want for Christmas Is You" tillsammans med Justin Bieber till hans julalbum Under the Mistletoe.

American Idol, fortsatt filmkarriär och The Art of Letting Go (2012—framåt)

Den 1 mars 2012 deltog Carey i konserten Plot Your Escape vid New Yorks Gotham Hall med endast 50 biljetter tillgängliga att köpa.

I en intervju berättade Carey om sitt fjortonde studioalbum: "Jag samarbetar med mina favoritpersoner och mitt huvudmål är att inte följa någon särskild trend. Jag vill att skivan ska bli väl mottagen. Jag vill vara sann mot mig själv och musiken och göra mina fans glada."

Walmart avslöjade titeln på sångarens fjortonde album var The Art of Letting Go, vilket också bekräftades av Careys vän och samarbetspartner Jermaine Dupri. Skivan gavs ut i maj 2014 under namnet Me. I Am Mariah... The Elusive Chanteuse.

Artisteri

Röst och musikalisk stil

Mariah Carey har ett röstomfång på fem oktaver

Kärlek är huvudämnet i majoriteten av Careys låttexter men hon har även skrivit om rasism, alienation, död, världssvält, och andlighet. Hon har sagt att mycket av hennes arbete är självbiografiskt men Time Magazine skrev: "Om Mariahs musik ändå hade all den drama som huserar i hennes privatliv. Hennes låtar består istället av sliskig och konstlad NutraSweet-soul. Hennes liv har passion och konflikter." Han noterade dock att efter varje album visade sångaren på mognad med musik som blommade och innehöll mera meningsfulla låttexter.

Careys musik består främst av elektroniska musikinstrument så som trummaskiner,

Influenser

Under sin barndom influerades Carey av Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughan och R&B- och soul-sångare som Gladys Knight och Aretha Franklin.

Under Careys karriär har hennes sångstil och musikaliska stil samt hennes kommersiella framgångar jämförts med Whitney Houston, som Carey också omnämnt som influens.

I would then play it back and then she would say, 'Yea, that's good' so it instantly becomes this partnership where eventually she'll have a melody and then the melody would prompt her to start thinking about this feeling she wants to put into words. This would eventually become the theme of the song."

At that point I really believed that I was going to go back to the marriage – I didn't think I was going to leave forever. But then the things that happened to me during that time caused me to not go back. Had it been, 'Go be yourself, you've been with me since you were a kid, let's separate for a while,' I probably would've."

Nowadays it's the Christina Aguileras and Jessica Simpsons who awkwardly oversing, while the women with roof-raising lung power keep it in check when tune or lyric demands."
