Description: Mariah Carey's
#1's is as much a time capsule of '90s pop and R&B as a record of one woman's chart toppers: the disc chronicles a shift from the sweet, nearly '50s-style "Vision of Love" to more recent hip-hop-lite grooves featuring heavy input from Puffy Combs ("Honey"), Jermaine Dupri ("Sweetheart"), and O.D.B. ("Fantasy"). Some hit, some miss, but all feature the fluttery swoops that Carey substitutes for expression of feeling. Depth is beside the point, but few of these tracks are even fun. Still, after eight years, there seems to be no stopping her, and this album will hardly break her streak of successes.

This is another great Mariah Marey album. #1's really shows Mariah's outstanding vocals and how they have stayed extremely strong for the whole of her career. She is an artist I truly admire because of her vocals and singing, she writes her own songs (or co-writes) most of them, and I think she is just great. I have been a Mariah fan for quite sometime now, round about 7 years but I am only 13! I will grow old listening to her music because she is excellent! I'd reccommend her other albums too!
Most of the songs from this album were #1's in the US yet this album was not a #1 in the US! Nor was it in the UK, but i'd still reccommended you pick it up weather you're a Mariah fan or not! Buy it now!!!!
Also look out for Mariah's other albums:
Mariah Carey (-1990-)
Emotions (-1991-)
MTV Unplugged EP (-1992-)
Music Box (-1993-)
Merry Christmas (-1994-)
Daydream (-1995-)
Butterfly (-1997-)
Rainbow (-1999-)
Glitter (-2001-)
Greatest Hits (-2001-)
Charmbracelet (-2002-)
The Remixes (-2003-)
The Emancipation Of Mimi (-2005-)
Greatest Hits is another Hits album from Mariah which includes most of her singles (not just #1's) and may include more songs from the albums Rainbow and Glitter.
I'd reccommend all of Mariah's albums but if you're stuck on which ones to get, choose between The Emancipation Of Mimi, Music Box, Daydream and Butterfly aswell as the Greatest Hits compilations! Mariah is a great singer!
THE TITLE SAYS IT ALL.
AS MARIAH'S LEGEND GROWS, (SHE'S GOT ANOTHER #1 ALBUM THE EMANCIPATION OF MIMI RELEASED THIS WEEK) THIS #1'S ALBUM WILL BECOME MORE AND MORE TIMELESS...IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON IN 90'S MUSIC, THIS IS A MUST HAVE. TO SAY MARIAH RULED THE CHARTS WOULD BE PUTTING IT LIGHTLY...SINCE HER 1990 DEBUT, MARIAH CAREY HAS REMAINED ON THE BILLBOARD HOT 100 CHART A STAGGERING 46% OF THE TIME.
