In November 1999, Mariah Carey released her seventh studio album, Rainbow.

In May of 1990 Long Island native Mariah Carey “realized a dream, and visualized the love that came to be“. “Vision of Love,” her “first single – ever,” was released in advance of her self-titled debut album. “Vision of Love” spent 4 weeks at #1 on the Hot 100 that summer, the […]
In the spirit of Justice, the #Lambily got Mimi’s E=MC² to the top of the iTunes Albums chart this week and now it’s time for another underrated piece of Mariah’s iconic catalog to get the same treatment: Charmbracelet.
