The Emancipation of Mimi is the tenth studio album by American singer-songwriter Mariah Carey. It was released on March 30, 2005, by Island Records. Its widespread success—following the critical and commercial disappointments of her film Glitter (2001) and its soundtrack, as well as her ninth studio album, Charmbracelet (2002)—led many to deem it Carey's "comeback" album.
