DESCRIPTION:
2xLP Soul / R&B LP - Released in 1993, Toni Braxton introduced the world to Braxton’s rich, velvety voice and established her as a defining figure in the R&B genre. Featuring iconic tracks like the smash hit “Another Sad Love Song” and the powerful “Breathe Again,” .
The self-titled album.effortlessly blends smooth soul, heartfelt ballads, and contemporary R&B influences. The album’s lush productions, characterized by intricate melodies and sophisticated arrangements, showcase the talents of notable producers like Babyface and Antonio Reid.
Before the machinery really kicked in, Toni Braxton seemed to just "appear": a low-voiced outlier of early-90s r&b, closer to adult soul than New Jack swing, her debut album landed in 1993, breaking from her family group, and was recorded between Atlanta and LA after she relocated with barely a year left on a music teaching degree. Released via LaFace and steered by Babyface and LA Reid, 'Another Sad Love Song', 'Breathe Again' and 'You Mean The World To Me' framed her contralto as a commercial risk that would pay off slowly, climbing charts over months not weeks. It became Braxton's first Billboard number one, though the industry corruption behind her contract would soon begin to fester.

In the late 1980s, Braxton began performing with her sisters as a member of the R&B group the Braxtons, who were signed to Arista Records. After attracting the attention of producers Antonio "L.A."

Her debut studio album, "Toni Braxton" (1993), reached number one on the Billboard 200 and sold approximately 10 million copies worldwide. It produced the singles "Another Sad Love Song" and "Breathe Again" and earned her three Grammy Awards, including Best New Artist.
