Toni Braxton Artist Snapshot:

Not since Whitney Houston has a female singer reached the top of the charts with such a sultry and sexy voice as Toni Braxton. Beginning with her 1993 self-titled debut she has been one of R&B's most consistent hit-makers. Braxton is also one of R&B's leading female sex symbols, known to cause a stir just about anywhere she appears, from the red carpet to the video soundstage to the very covers of her albums. Despite some financial troubles, dwindling sales in the early 2000s, and various label switches, Braxton proved a survivor and remained a viable artist in the years to come.

Q (4/00, p.106) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...beautifully sung and still sounds fresh as when it was first released....containing 2 massive hits in 'Breathe Again' and 'Another Sad Love Song'....Not difficult to see why it sold millions."

Toni Braxton won the 1994 Grammy Award for Best New Artist, and "Another Sad Love Song" won the 1994 Grammy for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance.

"Breathe Again" won the 1995 Grammy Award for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance. "You Mean The World To Me" was nominated for Best R&B Song in 1995.

"I Belong To You" was nominated for a 1996 Grammy for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance.

TONI BRAXTON is a smashing debut. One of the best vocalists to break through the glut of R&B divas, the sultry Braxton gives the pretenders to the diva throne cause to re-evaluate their careers. It's going to be hard to compete against this stylist.

Concrete songwriting also helps the album rise above the others. Songs like "Another Sad Love Song" and "Seven Whole Days" are perfect vehicles for her dynamic vocal gymnastics, while the subdued ballad "Best Friend" comes to a slow boil, after simmering for 4 and 1/2 minutes.

Braxton's unique voice combined with original, impossible-to-label songs like the sexy standout "Breathe Again" show what magic first-rate producers like L.A. Reid and Babyface can do with an extraordinary singer. The proof is in the sales and the awards generated from this album; Braxton won the coveted 1994 Grammy Award for "Best New Artist."

Braxton caresses her lyrics with jazzy, Anita Baker-ish embellishments, slurred phrasing, breathy come-ons, and leaping octaves. She swings, sways, wails and wallops her way through this outstanding showcase.
