context_page_description: Me. I Am Mariah... The Elusive Chanteuse is the fourteenth studio album by American singer-songwriter and producer Mariah Carey. It was released on May 23, 2014, through Def Jam Recordings. The record had been in development since 2011; during its production, Carey hired friend and collaborator Randy Jackson to manage her career, before replacing him with another frequent collaborator, Jermaine Dupri. The album consists of guest appearances from Nas, Miguel, Wale, and Fabolous, as well as gospel and R&B duo Mary Mary, in addition to Carey's twins Moroccan and Monroe. On the deluxe edition of the album, Mary J. Blige made an appearance on the remix of "It's a Wrap" – taken from Carey's twelfth studio album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel. These remixes were originally intended to appear on Carey's canceled remix album, Angel's Advocate.
  Previously titled The Art of Letting Go, the album was originally scheduled for release in 2012 following the single, "Triumphant" featuring Rick Ross and Meek Mill. However, after the song's underperformance, additional songs were recorded for the album, causing the release date to be pushed back several times throughout 2013 and again in 2014.
