  The Emancipation of Mimi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Emancipation of Mimi is the fourteenth album and ninth studio album by American singer Mariah Carey.
Carey also explained that "Mimi" is a nickname previously used only by close friends and relatives, adding that she wanted the title of the album to be "representative of where I'm at as an artist....
Critics tend to agree that her previous albums, Glitter (2001) and Charmbracelet (2002), were generally uninspired, and have hailed The Emancipation of Mimi as a return to form.

 Emancipation of mimi
The titular "Mimi" of The Emancipation of Mimi is, by all accounts, an alter-ego of Mariah, a persona that captures Carey's true feelings and emotions.
Mimi, or at least the sound her emancipation, sounds remarkably like Beyonce, too, working a similar sultry, low-key, polished club groove.
And that's the main story of The Emancipation of Mimi: since the reserved, tasteful adult contemporary pop of 2002's Charmbracelet failed to revive her career, she's done a 180 and returned to RandB, in hopes that maybe this will create some excitement.

 Slant Magazine - Music Review: Mariah Carey: The Emancipation Of Mimi
hough she's been "emancipated" before (first with Butterfly, then with Charmbracelet, her first album recorded free of Sony's watchful eye), Mariah Carey claims she titled her new album The Emancipation Of Mimi because she finally feels free to be who she really is, no apologies.
Ironically, Mimi is Mariah's least personal album since the milquetoast Music Box, for which Tommy Mottola allegedly ordered her to tone down the vocal acrobatics, as if she weren't already as easy to swallow as vanilla ice cream.
Despite its 14 tracks, Mimi clocks in at a full 15 minutes less than Charmbracelet, a testament to the unfussiness of the songs—few even contain bridges of any kind.

 theurbanwire.com: the 17th edition - Mariah Carey - The Emancipation of Mimi (Universal)
After 3 years since the release of her last album, Charmbracelet, Mariah Carey returns with The Emancipation of Mimi – a soul-baring offering that could quite possibly be 1 of her best albums to date.
The Emancipation of Mimi (‘Mimi’ is what Mariah’s closest friends call her and serves as a symbolic gesture to all her fans as an invitation into her life) starts off with the first single, “It’s Like That”;; a club jam that’s already rocking radios across the globe.
It’s also a little ironic that the emancipated Mimi still feels the isolation in her celebrated independence, as she sings on “One and Only”, “Every time I turn around I find my heart in pieces on the ground.

 Mariah Carey: The Emancipation of Mimi - PopMatters Music Review
With Mariah Carey's latest album, The Emancipation of Mimi, Carey not only puts to rest the rumors of a career gone sour, she also, probably unknowingly, settles a debate that has been going on since she stepped on the scene with a "Vision of Love".
Back in the early '90s, Carey was one of the poster girls for all that was a diva, but she was forced to share the spotlight with another diva that already had a few years on her named Whitney Houston.
This is not to say Carey did not deserve the critical assault she received for the Glitter soundtrack and Charmbracelet, both albums were failures both musically and chart-wise, but it is fair to say Carey didn't have it all together and therefore the previous two efforts suffered.

 Mimi Madness   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
The success of Mimi (in my heart) was going to be outstanding but sadly, critics are buttheads, and with the "disaster" of 2001's movie and soundtrack "Glitter" and the non-exsistant "Charmbracelet" still lodged in their brains, considered Mariah to "give it up".
But all in all, Mariah proved the critics wrong and when Mimi was released it brought forth Mariah's 16th #1 single, "We Belong Together" and bringing Mimi to the #1 album posistion.
"Emancipation" is Mariah's best if not best ever, she is simply flawless on this, not oversinging ANYTHING and maintaining some tight beats and funky rhymes.

 Echo Online :: Arts & Entertainment :: Re-emancipation of Mimi
"The Emancipation of Mimi" marks Mariah Carey's 10th studio album, which was being promoted as "The Return of The Voice." The album has sold 4 million copies, and is Carey's best-selling album since her 1997 release "Butterfly."
While most artists who re-release their albums do it because the poor sales, of the initial release, like in Simpson's case, "Mimi" is one of the best-selling albums of the year.
In Carey's case, she had other songs that could've gone on a follow-up to "Mimi," but she chose to re-release her current CD with the new jams and special features instead of waiting.

 Rolling Stone : Twista: The Emancipation Of Mimi : Music Reviews
Those back-to-back flops suggested that her famous multioctave voice was shot, her judgment impaired and her decade-long pop dominance as over as the Nineties.
But contrary to its claims, The Emancipation of Mimi doesn't free the diva from what constricts her: There aren't any great songs among Mimi's club tunes and pop-chart-conscious tracks, and Carey is still suffering from a serious crisis of confidence.
THE EMANCIPATION OF MIMI is one of the best albums Mariah has made and as she keeps on going, she'll get even better.
