Carey, 45, who has shared a close relationship with Dupri for 20 years, has now signed music industry veteran Kevin Liles after her album 'Me I Am Mariah...The Elusive Chanteuse' did not work, reported the New York Post.
Liles and Carey also launched a beverage line together last year, Butterfly and a representative of the singer said "the record executive is consulting with her".
