Mariah Carey Scores A New Bestselling Album As Her Comeback Single Drops
Mariah Carey's The Emancipation of Mimi debuts on the U.K.'s albums downloads chart thanks to its ... More twentieth anniversary reissue. Mariah Carey on 2/3/92 in Chicago,Il. in Various Locations, (Photo by Paul Natkin/WireImage) Mariah Carey has been working long enough that almost every year, there's something to celebrate from her past. While she continues to work on new music — including the recent release of her highly-anticipated single 'Type Dangerous,' which kicks off a new era — she's also been refocusing in recent years on celebrating her most popular works, the releases that helped make her the global superstar she remains today. As the next chapter of her career begins, she's also simultaneously revisiting one of her biggest. The Emancipation of Mimi debuts on one ranking in the United Kingdom this week. The set opens at No. 68 on the Official Album Downloads chart, reaching that tally for the very first time. As it arrives, It marks the Grammy winner's sixteenth career placement on the list of the most downloaded albums in the country. Carey has been steadily collecting new entries on the Official Album Downloads chart, but not with entirely new releases. 2025 is now the fourth year in a row that the singer has debuted a title on this ranking, despite not having released a new full-length in more than half a decade. Instead, anniversary editions of her past works have pushed older projects onto the tally — many of which never had the chance to land there when they were new, since the chart itself didn't exist at the time. This trend began in 2022, when Butterfly launched at No. 45 following its twenty-fifth anniversary celebration. The next year, Music Box appeared in the same position for one week, marking its thirtieth birthday. In June 2024, Rainbow earned a one-week star at No. 79 as it turned 25. The Emancipation of Mimi was originally released in April 2005, meaning it recently turned 20. Several versions of the album were reissued, including vinyl and box sets that featured remixes and other bonus content, which became must-haves for superfans in a variety of formats, including downloads. The album helped Carey bounce back from one of her first periods of commercial downturn, thanks to massive singles like 'We Belong Together,' 'It's Like That,' and 'Shake It Off.' In the years since its release, The Emancipation of Mimi has come to be recognized as both an artistic triumph and a hugely influential pop project.

Tickets are expected to sell quickly once released, given Carey's enduring popularity and the anticipation surrounding her return to Australian stages. Meanwhile, the iconic pop star recently revealed what's bugged her most throughout her decades-long singing career. Speaking with People, she admitted that upon its release she felt 'annoyed' that it was referred to as a 'comeback album.' 'At the time, it annoyed me when they called it a comeback album,' she told the publication. 'But now I'm just like, 'Oh yeah, my comeback album.'' The project — which featured collaborations with Snoop Dogg and Jermaine Dupri — was released just three years after 2002's Charmbracelet, which received mixed reviews and debuted at number three on the US Billboard 200 chart. Despite the success of The Emancipation of Mimi's predecessor, she said the 'comeback' description is 'somewhat accurate.' Carey expressed her frustration as she asked rhetorically, 'It's like, how many comebacks do I have to have?' She noted that if people 'know the album, then they usually are fans of the album.' 'But not everybody knows that album,' the entertainer explained. 'So people can discover various songs and kind of get to know the feeling of that album.' Acknowledging the milestone anniversary on social media last week, Mariah wrote to her 14 million Instagram followers: 'Happy 'Mimi' Anniversary!! I'm excited to celebrate this one with you.' A special edition 20th anniversary iteration of the LP will be released on May 30. Mariah added in her Instagram caption, 'While working on #Mimi20, I got to relive all the memories from this pivotal moment in my personal and professional life. 'This album has some of my biggest hits to date, as well as some personal favourites that are very special to me. Let me know what your favourite Mimi lyric is and stay tuned for more surprises yet to come! Love, MC.' In a video shared by Spotify days ago, Mariah stated, 'The Emancipation of Mimi represents an incredible part of my life — obviously the music and the songs and just where it took me as an artist and as a person.' She named Fly Like A Bird as one of her favourite tracks from the album, calling it 'the vocal take that I'm most proud of.' 'It was such a strong message that I was kind of writing to God, to myself, to my fans. It still feels that way to me,' Mariah said of the soft and uplifting R&B tune. The album went on to sell 10 million albums worldwide, with six million purchased in the United States. The star was married to Nick Cannon from 2008-2016 and they share 13-year-old fraternal twins Moroccan and Monroe.
