SPOTLIGHT: Whitney Houston- My Love Is Your Love Whitney Houston's first non-soundtrack album in eight years is a tour de force that showcases in a wide array of musical genres, from pop to R&B to gospel to dance. Thematically, Houston tackles matters of the heart in a forthright, mature manner, befitting her personal and professional growth during the past decade. Highlights include opener "It's Not Right But It's Okay", "Heartbreak Hotel" featuring Faith Evans and Kelly Price, the Mariah Carey duet, "When You Believe", featured on Carey's #1's collection and the "Prince Of Egypt" soundtrack, the sassy "In My Business" featuring Missy Eliot, the title track co- written and co-produced by the multitalented Wyclef Jean, and the charming ballad "I Bow Out", one of three cuts produced by Babyface. Also noteworthy is the hidden bonus track "I Was Made To Love Him" a collaboration between Houston and the red-hot Lauryn Hill. On an album with writing and production from a diverse roster of players (from the aforementioned to Diane Warren to Rodney Jerkins) Houston keeps it all together with her spectacular voice and singular artistic persona. A return for a pop diva and an album with immense crossover potential.
