Toni Braxton

I miss her. She could really sing - without oversinging - and she could do a wide range of material. I really consider her one of the better urban soul singers of the 90's, but one relative flop (More Than A Woman) and she's without a label. But Ashitty is on her 3rd album...HOW?

P.S. I've re-evaluated The Heat recently. It's a really great record, kind of works its groove into your subconscious, which is why I hadn't pounced on it right away. "Maybe" is a really underrated slow jam.

This might be the wrong forum...unless she's an outspoken damn liberal! And I think she was signed to Blackground, Alliyah's old label, and I heard there was supposed to be a record out last year...Hmmmm....

Not only that.

The way the dress is designed, if she accidentally stepped on the front of it,
not only could there be a serious wardrobe malfunction she might end up with a broken neck in the process. doh!

Of course i do , unless it's about
Beyonce , Destiny's Child , Bono , 50 Cent ,
P Diddy , Pink , Toni Braxton or Usher

And before you say anything about Madonna ;
i acknowledged the fact that she deserves some credit
for her producing and songwriting skills

Is her latest turd, I mean album, out yet? If it is, it must have tanked hard. That has got to end soon. It just has too. Too many people just dislike her. I don't think the second album did very well.

I LOVE "The Heat" she and her husband Keri made some helluva joint. Thats my FAVE album from her.

As for her dressing,,,live & let live you gues, coz thats her OWN grown pussy & ass when its all said and done so leave it alone.

My favorite album is her first. Lots of classic '90s/Babyface slow jams on there.

Im not really sure if she took any actions. But she said she was upset at Vibe and embarrassed because her father was upset at the cover.
Thats why she made a deal about it,because her dad was concerned.

No, Dewrede never has anything positive to say. Once again an org member is slamming a RnB performer who can sing. Nevermind all the pop singers who sound like dying cats. (LOL)
