she has no label her webmaster stated 3 big companies are after her but she may just start her own label to release but i think thats a bad idea with her situation.

i was listening to her CD "Secrets" the other day and it's definitely one of my all time favorites. Is she still beefing with Babyface?

^^ two amazing tunes. Libra is such a good album. 'Please', 'Trippin' and perhaps 'Take This Ring' could have been very nice hits had they been properly handed and promoted. I'm sure that album could have sold 1,5 million AT LEAST with decent promotion and support. She is in Vegas, she will be until August I think but hopefully she will be in a new label. Hopefully Def Jam but girl has a problem with everyone at every side of the bussiness oh snap!

"Midnight" and " i wanna be your bay" I think Midnite was Soulschock and Karlin.. I Wanna Be Your Baby is definitely Babyface.

Vocally Toni needed to step it up. "Trippin" dragged and got boring as hell. Mary vocally killed "Be without you". Toni's song didnt come close.

I think lyrically and musically, "Trippin'" was the superior song. It's just that the understated vocals made it somewhat easy for the song to fly below the radar - but it's still a great song, and the realness in it outdoes that of "Be Without You" threefold, at least.
[To clarify, when I say lyrically, I'm referring more to the lyrical context, as opposed to the words themselves.]

Yeah, she definitely has some major labels after her but she's apprehensive because she feels like she's been burned by the majors too many times before. We'll see what happens, though.

LOL @ the thread title. I actually thought it was real at first. I miss her too, but she's kinda been going downhill IMO. I liked "Trippin" from her last album, but other than that, the last song from her I really liked was "He Wasn't Man Enough".

The ballads on Libra were really solid...
It was the mid-tempo jams that were a bit off.....
I can see her maybe possibly pulling it off with another album effort...
Everyone is allowed their Charmbracelet....

I bought the "Ultimate" 2 CD comp a few months ago...it has just about everything of hers you'd want EXCEPT nothing off "Libra". I know she released that through another label, but I thought they might have added at least "Please"...
