Mariah Carey - Butterfly Butterfly is the sixth studio album by American singer-songwriter and producer Mariah Carey, released on September 16, 1997, by Columbia Records. The album contained both hip hop and urban adult contemporary sounds, as well as some softer and more contemporary melodies. Throughout the project, Carey worked with Walter Afanasieff, with whom she had written and produced most of the material from her previous albums. She also worked with many famed hip hop producers and rappers, such as Sean "Puffy" Combs, Q-Tip, Missy Elliott and the Trackmasters. With the latter acts producing most of the album, Butterfly deviated from the contemporary sound of Carey's older work All good Cd s are repaired and tested so they should play well, if the cases are cracked or broken we replace them with another case, the art work is what we received on the purchase,some may be near perfect some may be front artwork only, some may have been replaced by the previous owner , so we can not guarantee the art work on any used cd. cd4-000131-gd
