"Heartbreaker" is a moderately slow pop track, with hip-hop and R&B influences. It is written by Carey for Rainbow and features a guest appearance from Jay-Z. The singer wrote the song, initially planning for it to be featured in a movie project. However, the project was postponed, making Carey include it on her then-upcoming album.
The track was released in 1999, as the album's lead single to mixed reviews from music critics. Nevertheless in the United States, the song became Carey's 14th number 1 single and brought other new feats to her career. Its music video portrays a cinematic plot where the singer is shown as two different women. It is one of the most expensive ever made, with a cost of US$2,500,000 and remains as one of her fan favorites to date.
