The Heat is the third studio album by American recording artist Toni Braxton. Released in the United States on April 25, 2000 by LaFace Records, the album marked Braxton's departure from her ballads in favor of a more urban sound. Most of the songs (including the nearly instrumental &The Art of Love&) were written and produced by Braxton and her husband Keri Lewis (a former member of Mint Condition), two ballads were penned by Diane Warren, and collaborations featured rappers Dr. Dre and Lisa &Left Eye& Lopes. The Heat opened at number two on the Billboard 200 chart selling 194,448 units its first week. It was certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on October 13, 2000, with sales of over 2.2 million copies within the U.S. Additionally, the album was nominated for Best R&B Album at the 2001 Grammy Awards, while lead single &He Wasn't Man Enough& won for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance and was nominated for Best R&B Song.
