"The Distance" is a song by American singer-songwriter Mariah Carey featuring fellow American singer-songwriter Ty Dolla $ign. It was released by Epic Records on October 18, 2018, as the second promotional single from Carey's fifteenth studio album Caution. It was included with the pre-order of the record.[2] A lyric video was released on November 16, 2018, along with its parent album's release.[3] "The Distance" was written by the artists alongside Skrillex, Poo Bear, and Lido, with the latter three producing the song with Carey.
The song is described as being "sleek, slow funk", with Carey speaking out against the detractors who doubted her relationship with her lover would "go the distance", setting the song during the "warm days" and "cold nights" of "late October". The song received positive reviews from critics and charted at number 13 on the US R&B Digital Songs chart.
Slant Magazine called the song "the album’s most radio-friendly offering so far".[4]Rolling Stone mentioned that the song "boasts a triumphant R&B vibe".[5] In 2020, Billboard ranked it as the 92nd greatest song of Carey's career.[6]
