Singles obviously not

'Mariah Carey' was the best-selling album of 1991.
'Music Box' was the 2nd best-selling album of 1994.
'Daydream' was the 2nd best-selling album of 1996.
'The Emancipation of Mimi' was #4 on year-end list, but #1 selling album of whole 2005 calendar year.
She's had 4, going on 5 great sellers -- but Mariah just about matches her success with her 4 peaks. + she has 10 more albums which end that competition, and the singles only put Mariah up, up, and away from comparison.
Mariah is the more successful US female artist.
