I give the album 50 points. The reason for this is because the album basically has no samples, and all the beats are made from scratch. Toni also shows her range on this album, as well as displaying great harmonies. Her vocals in this era influenced other music Divas such as Christina Aguilera, Beyonce, Monica, Fantasia, Jessica Simpson etc... Toni's tales of Love, Lust and Breakup are central themes on this album, which grabs the listeners. Making them love this album for years to come, it also helps that this album is considered Toni's best work. Two Hugely Iconic R&B singles "Unbreak My Heart", and "You're Makin Me High" were released from this album. The album is also solid from start to finish, and by listening to the intro you will be hooked to this album. Released in 1996, and still 16 years later has a fresh sound and to be highly respected is admirable. This is one the r&b landmark albums of the 90's, and should be on the top 30 list. PERIOD.
“Daydream” is the best R&B album of the 90s in my opinion. From start to finish the album really showed Mariah's songwriting skills and her keen air for music. Songs like “Melt Away” and “Underneath the Stars” will make anyone who's not in love want to be in love. And we can’t forget the song of the decade. “One Sweet Day” that is just tear jerking and emotional. The album is just epic and never gets old.
So Legendriah was the person with three albums on the countdown. I'm so conflicted!!! I love Slaydream but there's no way in hell it should have beat out Buddhafly
or that Buddhafly shouldn't be in the top 5
But the legendary Fantasysus, Underneath The Heavens, The Lord Has Set Me Free, and Melt Awaysus give this album reason to be in the top 30.
