American singer and songwriter Mariah Carey has released fourteen studio albums, two holiday albums, one soundtrack album, one live album, four compilation albums, one extended play, and one remix album. Carey is one of the best-selling music artists of all-time, having sold over 200 million records globally.[1][2][3] She was presented with the Millennium Award at the 2000 World Music Awards for becoming the best-selling female artist of the millennium.[4][5] According to the RIAA, she is the third best-selling female artist and sixteenth overall recording artist with shipments of over 63.5 million albums in the US.[6][7] She is also ranked as the best-selling female artist of the US Nielsen SoundScan era (from 1991) with album sales of 54 million.[8] Her albums Mariah Carey, Music Box, Daydream and The Emancipation of Mimi are among the top 100 certified albums according to the RIAA.[9]

In 1988 Carey began recording music for her self-titled debut album, which was released in June 1990. The album was certified nine-times Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), denoting shipments of over nine million copies in the United States. Additionally, the album spawned four consecutive US number-one singles. In September 1991, Carey released her second album, Emotions. It was a commercial success, selling over eight million copies worldwide. By 1993, Carey released her most successful studio album to date, Music Box, which was certified Diamond in the United States and topped the charts in many countries around the world.[10][11] Music Box is one of the best-selling albums of all time, with sales of over 32 million copies.[12][13][14] In 1994 Carey released her first holiday album, Merry Christmas, which became the best-selling US Christmas album of all time. It contains the worldwide Christmas classic "All I Want for Christmas Is You".[15][16][17] After Carey's success in Asia with Merry Christmas, Billboard estimated Carey as the all time best-selling international artist in Japan.[18] By 1995, Carey released her fourth studio album, Daydream, which became her second Diamond certified album by the RIAA, with worldwide sales of over 25 million copies.[19]

Carey's fifth studio album Butterfly, was released in 1997. The album introduced a new musical direction and style, as well as the video for "Honey" portraying Carey in revealing clothing for the first time in her career. Butterfly and Carey's next release #1's (Carey's first compilation album) were both certified five-times Platinum in the US; the latter remains the best-selling album in Japan by a non-Asian artist, selling over 3.25 million copies.[20] Rainbow, Carey's sixth studio effort, was released in 1999 and received triple platinum certification from RIAA. But it was her first album since Emotions to not reach number one in the US. In 2001 Carey parted from Columbia/Sony Music and signed a contract with EMI's Virgin Records worth a reported US$100 million,[21] the largest record contract ever signed. She released her next album, Glitter, which was the soundtrack to the film of the same name. The album suffered from poor publicity and thus became a commercial failure compared to her previous efforts.[22]

Carey signed a new deal in 2002 with Island Records and released her seventh studio album Charmbracelet. The album's sales were an improvement over Glitter, however, still failed short of Carey's earlier success. The singer then took a three year break to record new material and introduced a hip-hop flavored album entitled The Emancipation of Mimi, which became the best-selling album of 2005 in the US, being certified six-times Platinum by the RIAA, and selling over twelve million copies worldwide. The Emancipation of Mimi produced the successful single "We Belong Together", which topped the US Billboard Hot 100 for fourteen weeks, and reached the top five in many worldwide markets.[23][24] In 2008, Carey released her ninth studio album, E=MC², which was certified Platinum by the RIAA, and has sold over 2.5 million copies worldwide. It produced the chart-topping single "Touch My Body" which broke her tie with Elvis Presley for the most number one singles by a solo artist on the Hot 100. Her subsequent release, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel (2009), managed sales of two million units[25], while her second holiday album Merry Christmas II You shipped over 500,000 copies in the United States. The singer's fourteenth effort, Me. I Am Mariah... The Elusive Chanteuse failed commercially, becoming the lowest selling release of her career.[8][1]
