Mariah Carey’s newest single from her RIAA platinum album E=MC², the #1 Most-Added “I’ll Be Lovin’ U Long Time,” will be the subject of a unique competition. Beginning July 15th, the “Mariah Remix Contest” will allow fans and remixers throughout the world to create distinctive new mixes of the song, using individual tracks from the master sessions of “I’ll Be Lovin’ U Long Time.” The “Mariah Remix Contest” is being launched by MariahCarey.com, in conjunction with UltraStar Entertainment, the digital media company behind her official site and fan club, and IndabaMusic.com, the leading music collaboration website and online community for musicians.

Submissions will be accepted through August 28th, with online fan voting beginning the next day, and ending on September 12th. The 10 remix finalists, as voted by fans, will be judged by the celebrity panel of Mark Sudack (co-executive producer of E=MC2), Kerri Mason (Dance Columnist, Billboard), and Mantis Evar (EVP, Indaba Music).

The grand prize package will include $5,000 cash, the winning remix posted on Mariah’s official website, www.MariahCarey.com, her record label’s website, www.IslandRecords.com, and MySpace page, www.MySpace.com/MariahCarey, and the winning remixer featured as Mariah’s ‘Top Friend’ on MySpace for one month.
