Whitney Houston became an international star with this album. It sold more than ten million copies around the world, yielded a string of number hit singles across the board like ''I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me),'' ''Didn't We Almost Have It All'' and ''Love Will Save the Day,'' and established Houston as the era's top female star. She later went on to more than solidify that status, with other hit albums and a budding film career. While this is a far cry from soul, it's the ultimate in polished, super-produced urban contemporary material. -- Ron Wynn, All Music Guide
