'''MonarC Entertainment''' was an American [[record label]] formed by [[Mariah Carey]], under [[Island Records]]. The name comes from Carey's well-documented fascination with butterflies. The only albums released with the Monarc Entertainment logo were ''[[Charmbracelet]]'' and ''[[The Remixes (Mariah Carey album)|The Remixes]]''. In the summer of 2004, Carey reportedly shut down her MonarC label, as her subsequent releases were released under just Island Records alone.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://popdirt.com/mariah-carey-shuts-down-monarc/31787/|title=Mariah Carey Shuts Down MonarC?|date=11 August 2004|access-date=17 May 2016}}</ref> The label was founded by Mariah Carey and longtime music business executive Jerry Blair, supported by A&R power player Faith Newman, and radio promotions handled by veteran promoter Rick Hendrix.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.aol.com/entertainment/jerry-blair-radio-promotion-executive-011702079.html#!/|title=Jerry Blair, Radio Promotion Executive Who Championed Ricky Martin, Dies of COVID-19 at 60|
