Carey's music has been influenced by Rhythm and blues, Pop, Gospel, Hip Hop, dance, Soul and Rock. Her singing and songwriting are structured around her wide-ranging voice, which spans five octaves. Her melismas, vocal swoops, trills, and jumps between octaves have become easily recognizable features of her distinctive sound. She has produced every one of her ten studio albums with the exception of her debut and directed music videos. Since 1999, she has occasionally worked as an actress and supports a variety of charitable organizations.
