Miami New Times

Miami New Times Miami's independent source for news, criticism, culture happenings, and more since 1987. And of course it moved to a Latin beat. There is only one daily paper.

Today the Latin beat remains, but a couple of other things have cha

nged. The median age has dropped dramatically. Tourists come to play all year round. South Beach's nightlife scene is world famous. And Miami New Times, now with a circulation of more than 70,000, has become the region's essential compendium of news and information for residents and visitors alike. Drawing on the talents of an accomplished editorial staff recruited from all across the country, New Times has established a reputation for compelling stories ignored or overlooked by major media, for insightful coverage of local arts and entertainment, and for unflinching exposure of Miami's steamy political life. That reputation for high-caliber journalism has spread beyond South Florida. The paper has won more than seventy first-place awards for editorial excellence, statewide and nationally. Miami New Times is still young and dynamic. And of course, like the city it serves, it moves to a Latin beat.

Back in December 1988, Mariah Carey attended a holiday party at Media Sound in New York with singer Brenda K. Starr. She brought with her two demo tapes featuring seven original tracks written with collaborator Ben Margulies. One tape famously ended up in the hands of Tommy Mottola, then head of Columbia Records, who signed Carey soon after. The other, however, went to legendary Miami-based producer Arthur Baker, who instantly knew he had hit a goldmine after listening to just the first three songs.

Baker tucked that tape away... for decades. That is, until recently.
