IMore Than A Woman/I is the sixth album from sophisticated R B singer Toni Braxton. Whether she's writing about her own anguish or interpreting someone else's, Braxton has a way of cutting straight to the soul. It's why her signature hit "Un-Break my Heart" was a smash, and why IMore Than a Woman/I is such a terrific album: she's angry, and she's skilled enough in R B soul to exorcise those demons. The soaring and sassy he-done-me-wrong lament "Lies, Lies, Lies"--its chorus powered by thickly layered vocals--is utterly irresistible. "Give It Back" similarly scolds a cad caught stepping out on our gal. Braxton also finds success in happiness: the lilting, Spanish-flavoured "Me My Boyfriend" is a joyful ode to being together, while the swooning, synth-juiced "Tell Me"--despite its soft, innocuous exterior--finds Braxton seducing a lover by checking off her attributes (hard body, wearing a thong) while offering a private dance. Braxton's husky voice continues to make hairs stand on end, and while IMore Than a Woman/I doesn't find her busting down doors stylistically, loyalists will find plenty to praise. I--Kim Hughes/I

This album has not had many glowing reviews but it's not a bad album it's a different side of toni braxton it's really hasn't got any love songs the only love songs here are always lies,lies,lies rock me,roll me but the rest is more hip hop it's a mix of both my favorite tracks on this album are me boyfriend Hit the Freeway tell me let me show you the way out always and i love you and i like all the rest of the album only get this if you are big toni braxton fan if you are the ballads type best 2 forget about this one i think this is one of the best rb hip hop albums ever overall i give it a 10/10 must buy if you are a toni braxton fan if you liked this album go for Libra or The Heat both by toni braxton or try Just Whitney by whitney houston an just to let you know more than a woman only got #13 in the US albums chart.

This is a really good album . All the songs are good especially let me show the way ( out ). There wasn't a song I didn't like. I loved a better man because it had a lovely melody. If you buy this album I'm sure u'll definetly love it trust me.

This album is a changed in direction for Toni although it's not a radical change she is still sticking to her soulful roots. This is more hip hop orientated, there are less love ballads like her previous albums more sassy tracks. Her voice sounds huskier than usual but that does not mean it is bad or does it have a reflection on the quality of the songs. brThe tracklisting is:br1)Let Me Show You The Way(Out) (9/10): The best track on the album that contains a Curtis Mayfield sample is produced by No I.D. It is a hip hop flavoured song about a woman kicking out her cheating man.br2)Give It Back (6/10): Produced by Manny Fresh who also raps on the song is about a couple going their separate ways. It is more RnB that the previous song.br3)A Better Man (7/10): Another song about a woman leaving her cheating man, this song is slow but blends nicely into the next song.br4)Hit The Freeway (9/10): The second best song on the album produced by The Neptunes featuring Loon. It is an uptempo RnB song again about a relationship gone bad.br5)Lies Lies Lies (8.5/10): Written produced by her husband Keri Lewis his strongest song on the album. It is a rock sounding RnB midtempo song probably a future single.br6)Rock Me, Roll Me (5/10): An averaged ballad about treating a woman the way she wants to be treated.br7)Selfish (5/10): Produced by Brandy's husband Robert Smith, a ballad that is not as good as the rest of the songs on the album.br8)Do You Remember When (7/10): Written produced by Rodney Jerkins it is an uptempo love song with a classic soul feel to it.br9)Me My Boyfriend (8.5/10): This song based on "Me My Girlfriend", by Makaveli also the same as Jay-z Beyonce's, "'03 Bonnie Clyde". Which caused a controversy in the states these two songs are not unlike but Toni's version is good.br10)Tell Me (5.5/10): A RnB song with an 80's feel to it. It is quite average.br11)And I Love You (8/10): The only song written by her long time writer Babyface, this is the best ballad on the album the most reminiscent of the previous albums.br12)Always (5/10): A ballad to end the album but it's not her best, maybe this could have been left out.brAll in all i give this album 8/10, every Toni Braxton should buy it also fans who never bought her albums but like soulful music should buy it you probably won't be disappointed.
Toni's still on top. January 26, 2003

... Whilst More Than A Woman is less obvious than The Heat Secrets, it has great potential. I remember buying The Heat and thinking oh dear, but it grew into an passionate and strong album. So, on hearing this and thinking uh-oh, Toni's lost the plot, I thought I should give it a while. brAnd boy was I glad I did. I can't get enough of it. It's a lot darker and a more subtle angle on the female RB scene. But she manages to sink her teeth into some real funky beats with the help of Neptunes (Hit The Freeway the obvious single) and catch some great grooves on Give It Back and Let Me Show You The Way (out). Her effortless voice seduces sedcutively from the speakers n Me My Boyfriend, and whilst laying down the law on Lies Lies Lies and Selfish, she masters a deep soul that a lot of people can only dream of.brMy advice - buy this CD and give Toni a chance to prove she's most certainly still ahead of the game.

The single "hit the freeway" sounded very appropriate in a world filed with very commercial RB singles. I have always admired Tonis' range and this album seemed to reflect her true nature. I must admit, it lacks the ground breaking tracks such as "breathe again" and "unbreak my heart" but it is much more soulful and constitant than her previous work. The album starts of very hip-hop orientated which reflects the brilliance she possesses of adapting other styles to her music. This then follows by a sweet RB collection of grooves. The highlights are the hit single, "let me show u the way", "rock me roll me" and "selfish". The album is certainly worth buying if u are tired of all these newcomers who do not know how to sing and be original.
