Flashback Friday: Christina Aguilera and Deborah Cox

Well, we survived the first week of 2012, let’s celebrate with some throwback hits.

Christina Aguilera, Stripped (2002)


Javacia said: This album got a lot of attention because Christina Aguilera was wildin’ out on videos and performances for the single “Dirrty.” And while Aguilera certainly decided to explore and celebrate her sexuality on this album, those songs weren’t the gems of this collection. Self-esteem anthems, soulful tracks about loving Mr. Wrong and sweet, yet sultry songs about finding Mr. Right are what make this album one of my favorites.

Deborah Cox (1995)


Edd said: Back in 1995, I thought it was my destiny to meet and marry Deborah Cox. Just look at that face! Flawless. Her debut album was pretty close to perfection too – an overlooked gem during an era of outstanding R&B releases. “Where Do We Go From Here” was even voted as our “senior song” when I graduated high school years later. I thought Brandy’s “Missing You” was more appropriate, but I think I picked Deborah anyway. Who could say no to that face?
