"So Lonely" is a song written and produced by American singer Mariah Carey and producer Rodney Jerkins. It is a duet between rapper Twista and Carey, featured on his album The Day After and Carey's The Emancipation of Mimi (Ultra Platinum Edition). Officially released in 2006 (see 2006 in music) as the third single from The Day After, it serves as a sequel track to "One and Only" (also featuring Twista), another track from The Emancipation of Mimi.
The single unofficially impacted U.S. radio on January 18, 2006, but it had already been added to many radio station playlists and internet websites well before this date (in late September 2005). The single was introduced to iTunes as a digital download in late 2005. "So Lonely" reached number fourteen on Billboard's Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart, which represents the twenty-five singles below the Billboard Hot 100's number 100 position that have not yet appeared on the Hot 100. It failed to reach the top forty on the Pop 100 or Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks charts, though it appeared on the Rhythmic Top 40. There was no official music video for the single.
There are two versions of the song: one from The Emancipation of Mimi, which has an extended intro and an additional verse by Carey, and one from Twista's The Day After.
