With its seamless blend of hip-hop, jazz and quiet storm, Toni Braxton’s Secrets is a high-water mark for ’90s R&B. A hip-hop beat that feels like a slow jam, “You’re Makin’ Me High” might be Braxton’s most effortlessly seductive single. She’s authentic enough to appeal to rap fans, but her sumptuous, husky voice also suits the soft rock of “There’s No Me Without You” and the windswept balladry of “Un-Break My Heart”. The smouldering “Talking in His Sleep” leaves no doubt that she’s the decade’s most sensual diva.18 June 1996 12 Songs, 54 minutes ℗ 1996 LaFace Records LLC
