Mariah's career is legendary. She scored a number-one single every year of the '90s, duetted with the biggest names in music — from Ol' Dirty Bastard to Luciano Pavarotti — and she'd sold more than 70 million albums by the time she was 26 years old.

Moreover, she wrote 17 of those number-one hits, created a genre of music, and inspired a generation of singers.
