Mariah Carey‘s hit album The Emancipation of Mimi will celebrate it’s 20th anniversary this year and Carey has announced several releases to celebrate the milestone.

A post on Instagram reads: Happy “Mimi” Anniversary!! I’m excited to celebrate this one with you 🥰 While working on #Mimi20, I got to relive all the memories from this pivotal moment in my personal and professional life. This album has some of my biggest hits to date, as well as some personal favorites that are very special to me. Let me know what your favorite Mimi lyric is and stay tuned for more surprises yet to come! Love, MC 🦋💞✨

Carey has personally compiled a collection of songs from Emancipation into a five-LP vinyl box set arriving May 30, featuring the original tracklist of hits including “It’s Like That,” “We Belong Together,” “Shake It Off,” “Say Somethin,’” “Fly Like a Bird” and “Get Your Number.”  The special edition will also house dozens of bonus tracks, past remixes and collaborations with other artists, instrumentals, a capella takes, live recordings and more. There’s also a brand-new remix of “Don’t Forget About Us” by Kaytranada, which is out now, and a 28-page booklet that includes a personal letter from Mimi.

Mariah shared in a statement, “While working on this edition, I got to relive all the memories from this pivotal moment in my personal and professional life. This album has some of my biggest hits to date, as well as some personal favorites that are very special to me. Forgotten gems, unreleased bonus tracks and different remixes with incredible collaborators – all of these and more are now available in one place for the first time ever!”

A deluxe two-LP vinyl version will also be released, as well as an extended digital deluxe edition, with a selection of songs from the box set; both will be released May 30.
