Her debut album is FLAWLESS in my opinion! I like every song from it!

Secrets is great too, there are some tracks I can't get into but I absolutely ADORE "In the Late of Night"/"Toni's Secrets". I've cried to it a couple times when I first heard it...

The rest of her discography is a bit hit or miss for me. I recently picked up her new album

[gaz_uk]

I absolutely adore Toni Braxton - she's easily one of my favourite artists ever. Every album she's released has been solid (though not always spectacular I guess).

The Heat was the first Toni album I ever bought and it's still my favourite today. It has the perfect mix of club bangers, sultry mid-tempos, and of course Toni's signature power ballads.

But like I said before, every album has been great and enjoyable in its own way.

Agreed.

I love Toni!

[Charmbracelet]

I discovered Toni when I got my PS3, and was searching around on Vid Zone (an online music video player) and He Wasn't Man Enough rang a bell from my childhood so i played the video and the song is now in my Top 10 songs ever.

I picked up her first 3 albums from CEX and 'The Heat' is my favourite, and I got Pulse when it came out, I love that aswell.

I don't know why Get Loose wasn't included on the album though, that song is almost up there with HWME

[Tiger]

Wow Toni Braxton used to be really good... everthing Post-Heat except Yesterday seemed very lazy to me...

[GetBack]

I've been a fan of hers since "Un-Break My Heart". That was such a huge song here. Been a fan ever since. I feel sad that by the time More Than a Woman came out, there was zero interest towards her music already.

My ranking of Toni Braxton albums:
1. Secrets
2. Libra
3. Toni Braxton
4. The Heat
5. Pulse
6. More Than a Woman

Totally agree

The album Toni Braxton is great followed by Secrets

[Charmbracelet]

Oh my gosh since my last post in this topic I have become such a Toni stan! Here's my album ranking:

1. Libra
- the following 4 are pretty much at the same level for me
2. Pulse
3. The Heat
4. Toni Braxton
5. Secrets
- there is a gap here, I never really got into this one
6. More Than A Woman

[Star]

My first TB album was More Than A Woman - I was in love with Hit The Freeway at the time. And I Love You, Me & My Boyfriend <3

Please is another smash!

[Oo567oO]

I love Toni! I agree that her debut album is amazing! Brings back memories. And I find her last album "Pulse" pretty great as well

[bumbuclat]

I love her new Show "Braxton Family Values" it is hilarious. Do you guys already know about Tamar Braxton? She is fabulous

[jpguy]

I LOOVE "The Heat" - Amazing album!

[GetBack]

I love The Heat! She should have released "Maybe" and "The Heat". Those are so hot tracks!

[naughtynae]

I love Toni I grew up on that debut album my mum had it on repeat! Been a fan every since I loved all the albums up until Libra. I hope she can regain some success she deserves it.

[preyan]

Ooh, I love me some ratings!!! Before I do so, I just wanna say that Toni is the only "diva" from the 90's to remain true to her voice and sound! Her only other competition is Mariah and Whitney, and both those ladies lost it vocally (and otherwise)!!!

Toni's sounds the same as she did from the start!
As for my ratings, this is honestly very tight because I adore everything from her debut to her last album, Pulse:

1. Secrets
2. Libra
3. Toni Braxton
4. Heat
5. Pulse
6. More than a woman

I wish she could have a comeback like the Mimi album!

[GetBack]

I agree with you, preyan! And we have the same ranking! I remember listening to Pulse and Toni's vocals are still the same!

[GetBack]

Just listened to her whole discography and I just realized LaFace never gave her a proper greatest hits! All her hits are scattered in 7, yes, I repeat seven different compilations!

[Wmosi]

Seven Whole Days is, in my opinion, her best song to date.Plus i love the Black & White themed video ...with the old-school background singers.

Toni is so underrated.

[firefairyangel]

Toni is an amazing artist, and too underrated. The entire Libra album, especially. I was disappointed when she re-released it because it meant I missed out on some of the best tracks (Suddenly) since I wasn't willing to buy it again.

I even liked More Than A Woman. It's not her best album, but it's solid. And of course, Secrets is a classic. The Heat has some amazing stuff too.

Some of her best songs are ones that are lesser known: In The Late Of Night, I'm Still Breathing, Never Just For a Ring, etc.
