"Mariah Carey's MTV Unplugged concert was taped at the Kaufman Astoria Studios in New York on March 16, 1992, and premiered on May 20 on MTV. “Unplugged is an artists' show and Mariah goes well with its concept,” said Joel Gallen, the program's executive producer. “I can safely say she's the best singer we've ever had on it — she just shines.” After its massive success, Sony decided to release it as an EP on June 2, 1992. MTV Unplugged debuted at number eight on the Billboard 200 after selling 67,000 copies and peaked at number three during its third week. It was certified 4x Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America on December 13, 1994."
