Mariah Carey generally received positive reviews, with critics praising Carey's vocal performance and technique, but were ambivalent towards the songwriting. Together with Carey, they conceived the album and reconstructed her original demo tape. Mariah Carey featured production and writing from Rhett Lawrence, Ric Wake and Narada Michael Walden, all of whom were top record producers at the time. Aside from Margulies, Carey worked with a range of professional writers and producers, all of whom were hired by Columbia CEO, Tommy Mottola. After Carey was signed to Columbia, all four songs, after being altered and partially re-recorded, made the final cut for the album. Originally, Carey wrote four songs with Ben Margulies, which solely constituted her demo tape. Its music incorporates a range of contemporary genres with a mix of slow ballads and up-tempo tracks. Mariah Carey is the debut studio album by American singer Mariah Carey, released on June 12, 1990, by Columbia Records.
