My Love Is Your Love is the fourth studio album by American recording artist Whitney Houston, released worldwide on November 17, 1998. The album was her first studio album in eight years, since the album I'm Your Baby Tonight, although Houston released several movie soundtrack albums during the time between the two albums. My Love Is Your Love is composed of mid-tempo R&B, hip hop, ballads, urban-dance, reggae, and torch songs, produced by different musicians such as Rodney Jerkins, Soulshock & Karlin, Missy Elliott, Wyclef Jean, David Foster, and Babyface.

Although the album only peaked at number thirteen—her lowest position at the point—on the Billboard 200, and it sold less than Houston's previous albums in the US, it was a hit globally, with a successful world tour in support of the album. In particular, it was a hit in Europe, topping the charts in Austria,^[4] the Netherlands,^[5] and Switzerland.^[6] It also reached the top five in other European countries such as Belgium,^[7][8] Denmark,^[9] Finland,^[10] France,^[11] Germany,^[12] Norway,^[13] and the United Kingdom.^[14] The album generated several hits worldwide, and in the US on the Hot 100 chart: "When You Believe", a duet with Mariah Carey which also won an Academy Award at the 71st Annual Academy Awards ceremony; "Heartbreak Hotel" , which featured Kelly Price and Faith Evans; "It's Not Right, But It's Okay"; the title track "My Love Is Your Love", certified platinum by the RIAA and became Houston's third best-selling single ever;^[15][16][17] and "I Learned from the Best". Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI, Europe) certified the album 4× platinum for shipping of four million copies of the album in the US in 1999 and 2002, respectively. My Love Is Your Love is notable for introducing elements of hip-hop into Houston's work, only sparingly used in her previous material.^[18][19] Worldwide the album has sold over 13 million copies.^[20]

My Love Is Your Love received rave reviews from many critics, often regarded as one of her best releases.^[21] At the 42nd Grammy Awards of 2000, the album received seven nominations, including Best R&B Album and two Best R&B Songs. Houston won for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance for "It's Not Right But It's Okay",^[22] giving her her sixth Grammy Award.

Commercial performance

In the United States, My Love Is Your Love was released on November 17, 1998 when major records were released simultaneously for the holidays by high-profile musicians like Garth Brooks, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, Jewel, Method Man, The Offspring and Seal besides her. Time magazine wrote, "Music-industry folks have dubbed it Super Tuesday because more than ten major pop acts issued new CDs on the single day, making it the heaviest release date ever."^[23][24] The album entered the US Billboard 200 chart at number thirteen, which was the peak position of the album, and her lowest chart position at that point in time, with sales of 123,000 copies in its first week.^[25] That result was disappointing because the release was Houston's first non-soundtrack album in eight years and was highly anticipated. But eventually, the album became a commercial success, thanks to a series of hit singles, her energetic promotions and a successful world tour. My Love Is Your Love was present on the Billboard 200 chart for over a year, at 75 weeks, and on Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart for 79 weeks, peaking at number seven.^[26][27] The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) certified the album 4× platinum on November 1, 1999, for shipments of four million copies.^[18] According to the Nielson SoundScan, the album has sold 2,753,000 copies.^[28]

Across Europe, it was more successful than in United States. In early times of its release, the commercial response for the album was short of expectations. But its sales rose sharply during the European leg of the My Love Is Your Love World Tour, which was the highest grossing arena concert tour of 1999 on the continent,^[29] and consequently My Love Is Your Love became the second best-selling album of 1999 in Europe, behind Cher's Believe,^[30] spending more than one year on the charts in many countries. In the United Kingdom, it reached number four on the albums chart^[14] and was certified 3× Platinum for shipments of 900,000 copies of the album by the British Phonographic Industry(BPI).^[31] In France, the album peaked at number two on the albums chart,^[11] and was certified 2× platinum by the Syndicat National de l'Édition Phonographique (SNEP), selling 700,000 copies.^[32][33] In Germany, it climbed to the number two on the albums chart on its 35th week and has sold more than 670,000 copies.^[12][34] The album reached number one on the albums charts in Austria,^[4] Switzerland^[6] and Netherlands,^[5] and the top five in Belgium,^[7][8] Denmark,^[9] Norway^[13] and Finland.^[10] My Love Is Your Love was certified 4× platinum by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) for shipments of four million copies of the album in Europe.^[19] Worldwide, the album has sold over 13 million copies.^[20]

Upon the album's debut, the album received rave responses from music critics. Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone magazine commented that "It's easily her most consistent album ever— in fact, it's her first consistent album",^[40] and praised her mature voice as follows:

The former ingenue has some grown-up scars now, singing the marital blues with a bite in her voice that she's never come close to before. Did you think she'd crumble? Did you think she'd lay down and die? Then check out My Love, pal, and hear Houston prove beyond a doubt that she will survive.^[40]

— Rolling Stone

Jon Pareles, in his review for the New York Times, praised her fully developed voice, too. He stated that her sound was "supple and devout", comparing Carey's fidgetting sound with every phrase in "When You Believe", and commented "Ms. Houston used to be similarly showy and disjointed, but now her improvisations bring emotional coherence to technical feats."^[39] With expressing his interest about any connections between her troubled marriage and her new materials, commented "Lest anyone draw other conclusions from the songs, the album carries a disclaimer."^[39] Also, he was almost positive about songs such as "It's Not Right But It's Okay", "Heartbreak Hotel" and "My Love Is Your Love".^[39] In Billboard magazine's review, the issue dated November 28, 1999, the magazine called the album "A tour de force that showcases her strengths in a wide array of musical genres from pop to R&B to gospel to dance."^[36] The publication also opined: "On an album with writing and production input from a diverse roster of players, Houston keeps it all together with her spectacular voice and singular artistic persona", declaring the album had "immense crossover potential"^[36]

Mark Bautz of Entertainment Weekly gave the album B+, calling My Love Is Your Love "A schizophrenic album" and "A primer on today's hip-hop/R&B scene: the good, the bad." by reason of the unevenness of the album.^[37] He commented "Wyclef Jean's gorgeous reggae-tinged title song and three funky cuts by Rodney Jerkins showcase the 35-year-old Whitney Houston in all her creative, soulful maturity. In contrast, a trio of schmaltzy Babyface-produced tunes expose her as merely a gifted interpreter of bland radio-ready fare.".^[37] Similarly, TIME praised some new songs, calling the title song "superb" and Houston's remake of Stevie Wonder's classic "fabulous", but criticized the old-fashioned songs of the album sharply, commenting "The problem is with the Old Guard: producer David Foster's work is dull, and Dianne Warren and Babyface, who both wrote tracks, have better work on their respective resumes."^[23]

Writing for USA Today in November 1998, Steve Jones made a favorable comment on almost every song whether it is a ballad with her formula for success or a new styled song produced by hot, young producers who've updated and diversified her sound, stating "There's something here for just about everybody, whether you favor R&B, pop or adult contemporary radio."^[41] But he chose the remake "I Was Made To Love Him" as the best track of the album, complimenting the song highly, "The rollicking, gender-flipping remake".^[41] Stephen Thomas Erlewine from Allmusic, who gave the album four out of five stars, called it "easily ranks among her best" and complimented the musical diversity "Houston has never been quite so subtle before, nor has she ever shown this desire to branch out musically."^[35] But he also wasn't positive for adult contemporary ballads of the album, stating "In fact, the songs that feel the stiffest are the big production numbers; tellingly, they're the songs that are the most reminiscent of old-school Houston."^[35] Los Angeles Times gave it three out of four stars, writing "[It] reflect her growth as an artist and as an individual."^[38]
