The blockbuster record spawned "We Belong Together," which was crowned "SONG OF THE DECADE" by Billboard Magazine just two years ago.

"A multi-talented artist of Mariah's caliber should be doing everything imaginable. I'm sure others have said this but not the way I intend to do it. For me, it's about the execution," says Dupri.  Carey adds, "We have a bond that surpasses music. I am super excited about our merger because we have so many innovative ideas that I know will come to fruition."

Mariah's rep, Cindi Berger, who was in the studio with her the other night, says, "I've never seen Mariah so passionate about what she will be revealing to her fans very, very soon."
