Mariah Carey recently talked about her career success in an exclusive interview with Billboard on May 23, 2024, stating,
"I think that’s amazing. Depending on who I’m writing with or just writing by myself, it’s something that I love to do so much. Sometimes I just don’t care [about credit], because I know what I do."
The singer later talked about her chart success, responding in answer to a question regarding how she felt about having 19 Billboard Hot 100 chart toppers:
"I don’t know what I think about that! [Laughs] I don’t know. I think it’s astonishing. On one level it’s like, “[I] don’t really care.” But it’s not. To have 19 No. 1 singles and be one away from The Beatles … I don’t know how I can’t acknowledge that. One away from The Beatles … that’s a lot. I think it’s a little hard to wrap my head around."
Mariah Carey also talked about her career and songwriting process, stating:
"It’s hard to explain … and that’s the first line of the song I wrote called “Outside” [from Carey’s 1997’s album Butterfly]: “It’s hard to explain.” It’s really something that … I wouldn’t be happy with my life if I didn’t do. And I don’t just do it for the credit or anything else. I do it because I love to do it."
She later talked about the process of writing successful songs, stating:
"I think so. I think I would always be like, “I want to write a song like this,” and then take my time, do it and luckily have a moment that was very successful. Then again, I would have a song like “Butterfly” and it didn’t get released [as a commercially available single at the time] and it didn’t really do any kind of big numbers on the charts..."
Mariah Carey released her tenth studio album, The Emancipation of Mimi, on March 30, 2005. The album remains one of her more successful albums, surpassed only by earlier albums like Music Box and Daydream.
