Amazon.co.uk Review
After a nearly four-year absence from recording, Toni Braxton returns with IThe Heat/I, her third album. Full of drama--sometimes melodrama--it unsurprisingly puts Braxton's rich voice and command of nuance front and centre of one state-of-the-art track after another. Unfortunately, IThe Heat/I plays up her taste for ballads to such a point that the disc bores itself into a quiet-storm rut. The big exception is the Rodney-Jerkins-produced first single "He Wasn't Man Enough". The song's smouldering rebuff and Jerkins's measured funk make a perfect match for Braxton's matter-of-fact hauteur. She also delivers a tough take on reality with "Just Be a Man About It", which pits her against Dr. Dre in a breakup scenario that carries much more force than weightless trifles such as the filler sex-me-up "The Art of Love" and Diane Warren's "Spanish Guitar". I--Bob Roget/I

Okay it's not as good as Secrets but it's not awful it's still a five star album well that's waht i think anyway the singles are fantastic best tracks from the album Spanish Guitar and He Wasn't Man Enough this album has fantastic tracks that are not singles too you know like gimme some i'm still breathing never just for a ring and the heat overall i give this album a 10/10 must buy! if you liked this album buy Libra More Than a Woman Daydream / Butterfly The Emancipation of Mimi: Ultra Platinum Edition.
A great voice and a great album January 3, 2004

Toni Braxton's unique voice and the talent of Toni and her songwriters gave us an unique album again. The highlights are definitely the hip-hop hit "He Wasn't Man Enough" and the two Diane Warren ballads, "Spanish Guitar" and "I'm Still Breathing" (my favorite track on the album). Other good songs are "The Heat" with a hot summer athmosphere, "The Art of Love", a sensual song with almost no lyrics (written by Toni and her husband), "Maybe" with a little resemblance to Mariah Carey's "Breakdown" and the sad songs "Fairy Tale", "Speaking In Tongues" and "Never Just For A Ring" with pleasant melodies and heartbreaking lyrics. Has some fillers, still "The Heat" is a classic Toni Braxton album and a must have for not only fans but for anyone who loves beautiful ballads.

i don't have any toni albums but this, so i have nothing to compare with, but what i can say is that i have this c.d for about a year and a half and i still love it, (which is great about c.d's!!! long lasting joy!!!).pmost of the album is very chilled, and her voice is very deep and beautiful. the singles are great, but there are many good songs in here, even excellent!pmy personal favourits are: he wan't man enough, fairytale (this has been on repeat in my stereo!!!) and many more. pa good, long lasting album with some great tunes. recomended to r'n'b lovers. (but don't expect a juming album!)
Hot indeed! January 15, 2003

Excellent album from Braxton. Only drawback is that there isn't more uptempo tracks like 'He wasn't man enough'. She won't make songs like this forever, but for now they'll do just fine. Nevertheles when you have ballads of such high quality as 'I'm still breathing' (My favourite), 'Speaking in tongues', 'Never just for a ring', Spanish guitar(Unbreak my heart Part II)and 'Just be a man about it', you cannot really complain.
The best album of the year! September 5, 2000
What a return! This album is amazing! I love all the tracks! My favourites include The Heat, Maybe and Speaking in tounges This CD did not come out of my player for a very long time!
