Ever since, Mariah Carey’s first album came out she made it to the number one charts. I have bought every album of hers. She is a decent woman who inspired so many singing artists. Her songs have high ballads. She has the perfect voice to sing for any song. In the 90’s she had number one hits through the whole decade. She reinvented herself to look different in every music videos. The songs I love the most are Make It Happen, There’s Got To Be A Way, and I Want To Know What Love Is. Those are my favorites. She did an MTV Unplugged show of singing few of her songs in front of her fans. She is the ultimate Diva. The one song that is sang traditionally is What I Want For Christmas Is You. Before she was famous she lived in an apartment with her friends and had almost no money to live on. She was recognized by a record label when she sent her tape to the manager in person, and they accepted her to a record deal. The smart thing she did was to be an R&B singer just like her mother is an Opera Singer. She lived in New York at the time. Now all of her music are household names. Her breakthrough album was Mariah Carey, Mariah Carey. She has appeared on talk shows like Good Morning America, and The Arsenio Hall Show. Her music videos are decent to watch, and she hasn’t changed them in any other way. She married Nick Cannon a few years ago and now has two children. She is the all-time top selling female singing artist. She has appeared on music award shows, and movies. She sang I’ll Be There by The Jackson 5 on Mariah Carey MTV Unplugged. She is a legendary Icon. Her music legacy will live on.
