  • Summary: The R&B singer returns with a follow-up to 2000's 'The Heat' which sees her moving in more of a hip-hop direction, with production help from hitmakers Rodney Jerkins, Babyface, Irv Gotti and the Neptunes.

    While her wailing contemporaries go off the rails with exaggeration, Braxton merely tightens her groove and rides these mellow, meaty melodies. [#13, p.91]
  2. If there's any problem with More Than a Woman, Toni Braxton's fourth album, it's that its so consistent, so much a continuation of its predecessor, Heat, that it may be hard to pinpoint distinctive characteristics.

    Despite a late lapse into mediocrity, the good here far outshines the bland. [Feb 2003, p.96]
  4. Braxton has gotten brave and ratcheted-up both the attitude and tempo.
  5. All this anger's not just therapeutic--it also makes her transition to hard hip-hop diva seem sensible, instead of just a marketing move, by grounding it in something real.
  6. In her bid to be a little bit of everything for everyone, some of the unique flavor that has made her a star is sadly diminished.
  7. It's so predictable and so painfully trendy that More Than a Woman might as well have a former Mouseketeer's face on the cover.
