Labels Lining Up For Mariah Carey At Cheaper Price

Sue Zeidler of Reuters reports record industry sources say Mariah Carey is being courted by Island Def Jam, RCA and Elektra, who are interested in her but not at the huge figure Virgin records gave her. One label exec told Reuters, “She doesn’t need a lot of money at this point. She just needs someone to distribute her music. People still think she’s a very marketable brand.”
