<P> Carey's sixth studio album Butterfly, and the compilation album, #1's, were both certified five - times Platinum in the US; the latter remains the best - selling album in Japan by a non-Asian artist, selling 3.25 million copies . While the singer's seven studio effort Rainbow (1999) received triple platinum certification from RIAA, it was her first album since Emotions to not reach number one in the US . Carey parted from Columbia / Sony Music in 2001 and signed a contract with EMI's Virgin Records worth a reported US $100 million, the largest record contract ever signed . She released her next album, Glitter, which was the soundtrack to the film of same name . The album suffered from poor publicity and became a commercial failure . </P> <P> Carey signed a new deal in 2002 with Island Records and released her ninth studio album Charmbracelet, which also fell short of Carey's earlier success . The singer then took a three - year break to record new material and introduced a hip - hop inspired album, The Emancipation of Mimi, which became the best - selling album of 2005 in the US . It was certified six - times Platinum by the RIAA, sold 10 million copies worldwide, and produced the successful single "We Belong Together", it topped the US Billboard Hot 100 for fourteen weeks . In 2008, Carey released her tenth studio album, E = MC2, which sold over 2.5 million copies worldwide and produced the single "Touch My Body" which broke her tie with Elvis Presley for the most number one singles by a solo artist on the Hot 100 . Her subsequent release, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel (2009), managed sales of two million units, while her second holiday album Merry Christmas II You (2010) shipped over 500,000 copies in the United States . The singer's fourteenth effort, Me . I Am Mariah...The Elusive Chanteuse, failed commercially, becoming the lowest selling release of her career . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Title </Th> <Th> Album details </Th> <Th_colspan="10"> Peak chart
