With a career spanning over 25 years, Mariah Carey has enjoyed success in the 90’s, 00’s, and the current 10’s.

Having fallen on tricky terrain once again though, Carey re-teamed with Reid over at Epic Records earlier this year with a view to revive her career fortunes.

And while it’s clear an all-out approach is being taken to the Resuscitation of Mimi (as evidenced by the push for her Las Vegas residency and new greatest hits collection ‘#1 To Infinity’), Reid’s comments on her comeback will certainly set tongues wagging.
