  • The single was released on August 3, 2012. The song was written & produced by Mariah, Jermaine Dupri & Bryan-Michael Cox with additional writing credits by Meek Mill & Rick Ross. Mariah revealed that she wrote the song during difficult and personal experiences in her life and that through writing, it helped alleviate the pain. She later stated that "Triumphant (Get 'Em)" was written when her husband Nick Cannon was in the hospital with acute kidney failure in early 2012 and was also inspired by the death of her past collaborator and friend Whitney Houston. The song is a midtempo R&B and hip hop ballad that "mixes a soft beat with piano accompaniment." The lyrics convey a message of self-worth and perseverance with Mariah urging listeners to "Reach for the stars/ Be all that you are." "Triumphant (Get 'Em)" little impact commercially. Many felt that Mariah was overshadowed by the hip-hop duo and should have had more presence on her comeback single. Two accompanying versions were released alongside the original, titled the "Pulse Club" and "Vintage Throwback" remixes. Like the reception, commercial impact has been generally low. Most critics attribute this to the song's low appeal to Top 40 formats and mainstream channels. An accompanying music video for "Triumphant (Get 'Em)" was shot in New York City & directed by Mariah's husband. On August 21, 2012, it officially premiered on Mariah's official website and the following day digitally. The video (featuring a victorious boxing theme) portrays Mariah and Rick Ross as promoters as they cheer Meek Mill during his match. The clip was generally well received, due to its cinematography and ties with the song's theme of perseverance and being "triumphant." On September 5, 2012, Mariah performed the song live for the first time at Rockefeller Center. The performance marked the beginning of the new NFL season, starting with the New York Giants Vs. Dallas Cowboys game at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
