With a vengeance
Mariah Carey's "The Emancipation of Mimi" wound up selling a little over 400,000 copies this week - quite a bit more than anticipated. This is a big triumph for Island/DefJam's L.A. Reid and her manager Benny Medina. But the basic credit has to go to Mariah.
She's the target of a lot of jokes, but she did manage to stage a major comeback. Ex-husband Tommy Mottola must be grinding his teeth at night. His reborn Casablanca Records has yet to yield a hit. (Fox 411)
