FULL CIRCLE INFINITY

Mariah Carey has officially returned to Sony Music, where she began her illustrious career in 1990. Signed to Epic Records by CEO L.A. Reid, the best-selling female artist of all time will unleash her smash-packed greatest-hits package with 18 #1 songs. The set, titled #1 To Infinity, hits on May 18 via Epic/Columbia Records/Sony Legacy. Also included will be the brand new single “Infinity,” which arrives on April 27 with a video directed by Brett Ratner.

Meanwhile, Mariah is readying her Vegas residency, MARIAH CAREY #1’s, at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. The AEG Live production opens on May 6. A Ken Ehrlich-produced TV special capturing one of her Vegas performances is in the works.

All this coordinated activity serves as part of an aggressive new blueprint to relaunch a second half of Mariah’s career after a few years of missed connections like the underperforming album Me. I Am Mariah... Chanteuse, which sold less than 250K. By focusing on her incredible musical legacy instead of competing with artists half her age with brand new songs, Mariah and her team are trying to reshape the conversation about who she is in the music world.

“I couldn’t be more thrilled to be back together again with Mariah,” said Reid. “There is really no one who comes close to Mariah as both a songwriter and a singer, and as the world knows, her vocal range is legendary and truly incomparable. Her music is indelibly etched into our culture, and she’s shattered so many chart records that she’s now firmly entrenched in the history books."
