Album Review: #1 To Infinity - Mariah Carey (Sony Music)

 
Mariah Carey releases for the first time ever a greatest hits album that features chronologically all her hits. The album released on 18 May contains 18 of her American #1's, 17 of which were written by Carey. Most of the tracks have been Top Ten hits in the UK too.

She was always seen as the white version of Whitney Houston but she soon came into her own light. Vision of Love was her statement of intent and was a great first single. You tend to associate her with ballads but Emotion and Endless Love show her in a more upbeat style.

She likes to duet and on this album there are tracks with Jay z, Bots 11 Men AND Luther Vandross.

The album closes with her new single, Infinity which shows that there is still more good music to come.

4 out of 5.
