Secrets is the second studio album by American recording artist Toni Braxton. It was released in the United States on June 14, 1996 by LaFace Records. In all album sales in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei and Australia, she was awarded 13 × platinum with the officially labeled Sony Music Entertainment. After selling eight million albums domestically of her debut album, earning several awards—including Best New Artist at the 1994 Grammy Awards—, and having consecutive top ten singles on both the Billboard Hot 100 and the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, a lot was riding on this project. In the fall of 1996, Braxton kicked-off the Secrets Tour playing dates in America and Europe. The album was nominated for Best Pop Album at the 1997 Grammy Awards. Secrets has been certified 8× platinum for shipping 8 million copies in the U.S. and has sold over 15 million copies worldwide.
