WE BELONG TOGETHER
7X PLATINUM

As part of the MIMI20 celebrations, Mariah Carey’s “We Belong Together” was officially certified 7× Platinum by the RIAA — three years after it reached 6× Platinum. The new milestone not only underscores the song’s enduring popularity but also reaffirms its place as one of the most beloved and culturally impactful ballads of the 21st century. Two decades after its release, it continues to resonate with listeners, a testament to Mariah’s timeless artistry and emotional storytelling.

IT'S LIKE THAT
PLATINUM

Also during the MIMI20 celebrations, “It’s Like That” was newly certified Platinum by the RIAA, nearly two decades after it first lit up dance floors and radio waves. As the album’s bold opening statement, the track marked a powerful shift in Mariah Carey’s career — fun, fearless, and unapologetically in control. The long-overdue certification is a reminder of its impact, not just as a comeback anthem, but as a defining moment in 2000s pop and R&B.
