My Love Is Your Love is Whitney Houston's first album in eight years. In those eight years she focused more on a career as an actress. She has starred in The Bodyguard (1992), Waiting To Exhale (1995) and The Preacher's Wife (1996). My Love Is Your Love is a contemporary record filled with 90s r & b with a hint of hip hop. The opener It's Not Right But It's Okay, a song about the infidelity of
… a husband, seems to suit her. Also notable is her, considered impossible, duet with rival Mariah Carey When You Believe. The better songs, however, are the ones she recorded with younger artists such as Wyclef Jean (My Love Is Your Love), Faith Evans and Kelly Price (Heartbreak Hotel) and Missy 'Misdemeanor' Elliott (In My Business, Oh Yes). Something from the 'old' Whitney Houston can be heard in powerful ballads like I Learned From The Best, Until You Come Back and You'll Never Stand Alone. (CK)more
