| | Whitney Houston Just Whitney... CD Whitney Houston Discography of CDs
(23 Customer Reviews)
Unsurprisingly, this defensive attitude continues to pop up whether it's in the line "I'll live my life the way I feel/ No matter what I'll keep it real" punctuating "Try It On My Own" or the stand-by-my man Bobby Brown duet "My Love." Even ... Full DescriptionHouston's cover of '70s schmaltzfest "You Light Up My Life" seems like an attempt to capture lightning in a bottle a la "I Will Always Love You." JUST WHITNEY proved to be a nice rebound for a massive talent whose recent public attention revolved far too little around her God-given musical talent.
Scads of personal drama may have been central to Whitney Houston's life subsequent to the release of 1998's MY LOVE IS YOUR LOVE, but 2002's triumphant JUST WHITNEY proved to be a nice comeback. Surrounded by a top-shelf talent pool of producers including Kevin "She'kspere" Briggs, Babyface, and Missy Elliott, Houston struck gold. Highlights range from the playful "One of Those Days" (featuring a sample of The Isley Brothers' "Between the Sheets") and juicy Missy-penned-and-produced slow jam "Things You Say" (featuring harmonies by Tweet) to the defiant "Unashamed".
Personnel includes: Whitney Houston (vocals); Michael Thompson, Greg Charley (guitar); Greg Phillanganes (piano); Wayne Linsy (Fender Rhodes piano); Teddy Bishop (keyboards, programming); Nathan East, Reggie Hamilton (bass); Ricky Lawson (drums); Babyface, Kenya Ivey, Gordon Chambers, Tweet, Sharlotte K. Gibson, Gary Houston, Sheree Ford-Payne, Latrelle Ford-Payne, Sonnie Giddieons, Antonique Smith (background vocals).
Entertainment Weekly (12/13/02, pp.79-80) - "...In her third decade as a diva, Houston remains a formidable role model for IDOL wannabes, proving that a great voice goes a long way toward kicking adversity in the butt." - Rating: B- Hide Description Whitney Houston Just Whitney... Songs Just Whitney... Music Review Average Rating: (3.9 out of 5 stars)    List All Reviews FAR FROM HER BEST WORK Whitney is exteremely talented. However, this certainly not her best work. The only outstanding track on this album is "Tell Me No." Please understand I am not saying you should not but this cd. Unfortunately, I do beleive this cd is best if left for her most loyal fans to purchase. Submitted by Jon (Long Island, NY) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No 1 of 1 found this helpful.
Whittney Tells Everyone Like it is!!! Maybe this album will shut everyone up about her personal life! In this album I believe she's telling everyone she's human just like you and me and she doesn't have to explain why she's still with Bobby Brown. They've been together 10 yrs and he and she aren't going anywhere - go on girlfriend -:)

Only Whitney this one of the best comeback albums I've heard ina while. However it lacks some vocal ablility of the "Original Whitney" it still provided enough for us to say she's back. Inspiring us with "Tell Me no." and leaving us with a beautiful rendition of " You light up my life." my hats off to you "Only Whitney Submitted by Marcus (Birmingham, Al, USA) Was This Review Helpful?

Just Leave Whitney Alone!!! Fans, the woman has a very good voice. The personal problems that she has nothing to do with her music. She music for the most part is very good. The opinions about her marriage and other things are a separate issues. The fans should not mix personal and business together. Whatever is going on in Whitney's life is her business and not mine. Let's keep it that way. Submitted by jejr9 (Irvine) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Back Off Whitney has more talent in her pinky than most artists have in their entire bodies. Today most female artists are selling their six packs, breasts, thighs and buts but not their voices. Whitney’s voice is beyond comparison and she will always be treasured as one of the greats. Whitney has what some female artists’ lack “TALENT.” Just Whitney is one of her greatest releases to date. The CD has great depth, spunk, and personality. Criticism of the album is not based upon her talent as much as it is her personal life which is tragic because had Whitney released several tracks on this album say 3-5 years ago I’m willing to bet it would have gone double platinum.

Just Whitney... CD music
$9.35 DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE won the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary R&B Album. "Dangerously In Love" won for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance. "The Closer I Get To You" won for Best R&B Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals. "Crazy In Love" won for Best R&B Song and for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration. The song was also nominated for Record of the Year.
Besides deft, pitch-perfect hit songs, the talented if volatile Destiny's Child was remarkable for its unpredictability, not always a defining characteristic of mainstream R&B. While there was certainly a formula at play in the songs, the structure was subtly unstable, never following standard progressions. Yet most of their singles flew to the top of both the pop and R&B charts. While DC was generally a collective, Beyonce Knowles ...
