Mariah Carey launches Butterfly MC Records
|
Mariah Carey has launched her own label, Butterfly MC Records, and announced that the company's first release will be her latest album later this year. "I am putting my heart and soul into making more new music," said Carey, who was raised in Greenlawn. "I am so thrilled for this next chapter and to continue working with, and for, everyone that I love."
Butterfly MC Records will be a joint venture with Epic Records and will continue her collaboration with L.A. Reid, Epic's chairman and CEO, who signed Carey to the label in 2015.
"To continue working with Mariah Carey at Epic has been another rewarding chapter of my career," Reid said in a statement. "Mariah's incomparable talents as a singer, with her vocal range that is nothing short of legendary, are matched by her brilliance as a songwriter, producer, and performer par excellence. Mariah's chart records have established her enduring place in music history, a position that is cherished and supported by her loyal fans worldwide. I look forward to building upon all of Mariah's success for years to come."
Carey, the female artist with the most No. 1 hits - including "One Sweet Day", the longest-running chart-topper of all time, and "We Belong Together", which is tied for the second-longest run - is set to tour arenas with Lionel Richie this summer, including a stop at Madison Square Garden on August 19. The tour, which was originally slated for this spring, was postponed so that Richie could recover from knee surgery.

I hope this doesn't turn out like her previous attempts aka Crave Records and MonarC. I liked the name MonarC better though.

As much love and respect as I have for Mariah, Butterfly MC Records is a horrible name for a record company. If I was wanting a label to sign me, I'd skip over it simply because of the name. How can anyone take Butterfly MC Records seriously? This whole era is a mess still. "Me. I Am Mariah" was such a masterpiece that didn't get 5% of the credit it deserved. "Mariah's World" was enjoyable for me as a fan, but as a lamb, it did nothing for me. If Stella is truly behind this mess, lose her. If she did dump Bryan to focus more on family music, she needs to continue dumping people and get people who are really there for Mariah and not themselves. Mariah is a living legend and it is sad to see the mockery she is becoming - possibly because of Stella. I hope she gets it together.

Looks like 2017 will be counted as the first delayed push back date, then 2018. I suspect new album in 2019.
