The R&B diva is back with a dancefloor ready number called "I Heart You." Co-written and produced by Toni herself and Keri Lewis, the song starts off slow, with Toni singing and then the uptempo production slowly comes in. Although it lacks the punch of her earlier material, the song is a return to form especially in terms of the vocals. The Electronic production may be a bit jarring for fans of her R&B material, but it does have the feel of a number of the remixes that Toni has had done for her songs throughout the years. The beginning of the breakdown in the middle of the song bears a striking resemblance to the breakdown in the anthemic Soul-Hex mix of her "Un-Break My Heart." Perhaps an R&B version may allow this to do better on her core format. This one should smash in the clubs though.
