To me Face has never been a great vocalists...ever, like his voice is like the oppesite of Bey in my opinion, wheres he doesn't have a ton of range and he's not a great vocalists, but I think what gets him the acclaim is the emoting and personality in his voice. But yea Toni just slayed him in this song, but I thought she did in Give You My Heart and How Could An Angel Break My Heart.

Just heard the full version. Production is weak but Toni's vocals are sublime - as usual. What has happened to Babyface' vocals? I've never heard his music tbh but I've heard his voice before and it sounds...flatter.

He didn't take care of it like Mariah Carey :shifty: Tho I haven't heard it in a while..

That's how I always felt about his voice, BF can emote his ass off, but his range aint that great, and he has a whiny tone (a huge vocal turnoff for me with male singers). But sometimes his voice works

A Chris & Mariah duet....There can't be a God vengeful enough to let that happen, even with her voice today.

I need to hear more of his stuff - I only noticed it with this song but it really is whiny. I don't remember it that way on Whenever You Call.

LOL! Lord I will not let that happen. NEVER.

My 2 favorite Babyface songs (That I always recommend): (Give U My Heart is my most fave Babyface song)

They're whiny but their good songs. To be quite honest, keeping it 100, I prefer his background vocals/harmonies for the artists he worked on & his own songs, 1 of my fave things about the songs he produced/wrote in the 90's was you always heard that male background vocal and it was HIM and it was good. His background vocals in Whip Appeal is my fave of his own songs

PRRRRRRRREACH, you know I know it. It's like if Face had the range and power to his voice he'd sound like his brothers. Like I say don't get me wrong I can dig Faces voice sometimes, but of his brothers his voice is the weakest. Kevon's voice is so much like his tho but better

(I think Kevon is the 1 who does the 2nd verse of this song......this song that I love more than any solo Babyface song honestly lol)
