Review of the Toni Braxton CD titled Toni Braxton

The exceptionally talented Pop artist Toni Braxton has released her CD entitled Toni Braxton. I am very confident and happy to announce that I believe Toni Braxton fans, and Pop fans alike will be pleased with this one. With the release of Toni Braxton Toni Braxton’s artistic excellence is on full display as Braxton has once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks that could very well be her best work to date.

It's a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I'm more than happy to announce that’s exactly what I must say about this one. There simply isn’t a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all.

Pop music fans will recognize some of the well known contributors on the project including Rex Rideout and Debra Killings plus a few other notables as well.

This is a first rate CD, delivering a little something for everyone. I give it my highest recommendation. It’s quite simply great listening. A must buy for the Pop fan.

While the entire CD is outstanding some of my favorites are track 2 - Breathe Again, track 6 - Spending My Time With You, and track 7 - Love Shoulda Brought You Home

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Another Sad Love Song. This is a great track!
