Reliable sources have confirmed that Mariah Carey has signed a revolutionary multi-album contract with Gamma, an independent music company led by Larry Jackson. Carey is preparing her first studio album in almost a decade, an endeavor that will significantly impact the music industry.
Carey, a five-time Grammy Award winner aged 56, has recently released “Type Dangerous,” the first single from her forthcoming 16th studio album.
This remarkable initiative marks the beginning of a new era for Carey, who now shares the Gamma roster with prominent artists such as Usher and Snoop Dogg.
“What Larry Jackson is building at Gamma is beyond music. It’s a cultural shift, and I’m excited to be part of something that honors legacy while pushing boundaries,” Mariah Carey disclosed in an interview with Forbes.

Carey added, “This next chapter is about owning my narrative and creating freely on my own terms.”
While the title and release date of the ground-breaking album are yet to be revealed, Carey confirmed her collaboration with long-standing associate L.A. Reid, who will be the executive producer of the record. Fans are theorizing that Reid, who signed Carey to Island Def Jam in the early 2000s, will repeat the success of her 2005 album ‘The Emancipation of Mimi,’ which sold over 10 million copies worldwide.
This innovative project will be Carey’s first full-length release since ‘Caution’ in 2018, which made its debut in the top five on the Billboard 200 and earned critical acclaim for its production quality and vocal performances.
Gamma, established in 2023, has rapidly evolved into an appealing platform for seasoned artists seeking creative autonomy and ownership.
The company’s strategy emphasizes artist empowerment and cross-platform storytelling.
Mariah Carey’s remarkable agreement heralds a new phase in a career that has spanned over three decades and yielded 19 No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100.
The release date for the transformative album has not been disclosed yet.
