Mariah Carey - Rainbow
Deadline: Monday, April 8, 2019
11:59 PM Eastern
And now onto an album that is sure to be even more divisive than we’ve seen. Rainbow is the seventh studio album by Mariah Carey and was released on November 2, 1999. 2019 marks the 20th anniversary of its release so its fitting for us to be ranking it this year. With Urbanriah fully in the driver’s seat this point, Rainbow contains a mix of hip hop-influenced R&B jams, as well as a variety of slow ballads. On the album, Mariah worked with David Foster and Diane Warren, who, as well as Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, replaced Walter Afanasieff, as the main balladeer.
On Rainbow, Mariah collaborated with several artists such as Jay-Z, Usher, and Snoop Dogg, as well as Missy Elliott, Joe, Da Brat, Master P, Eve, Lil' Kim, 98°, Phil Collins and Mystikal. Rainbow was well received by critics, who generally praised Carey's embrace of R&B and hip hop in her music. Five singles were released from the album. The album's lead single, "Heartbreaker" featuring Jay-Z, became Mariah’s fourteenth number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100. "Thank God I Found You," featuring Joe and 98 Degrees, also topped the Hot 100. The next two singles, "Can't Take That Away (Mariah's Theme) and "Crybaby" featuring Snoop Dogg, were released as a double A-side. The final single was Mariah’s cover of Phil Collins' "Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now)" with Westlife.
Below is the list of songs to rank as well as Spotify and YouTube playlists. Please note we are NOT ranking “Vulnerability”. We ARE ranking "Rainbow" and "Do You Know Where You're Going To", however. It is included below as its own YouTube video for your consideration.
