AllMusic[1]

Karyn White is the debut album by American singer Karyn White. The album was released on September 6, 1988, by Warner Bros., and went to No. 1 on the R&B albums chart for seven weeks the following year. The album was certified Platinum[2] by the RIAA on April 4, 1989. It gave her four hits, "The Way You Love Me", "Superwoman", "Love Saw It" and "Secret Rendezvous". The former three were No. 1 singles on the R&B chart, and all except "Love Saw It" were Top-10 successes on the Hot 100 ("Love Saw It" never appeared on the pop chart). A re-issue in late 1989 of "Secret Rendezvous" in the UK reached No. 22, as opposed to the original top 50 placing. "Superwoman" became her biggest hit there, reaching No. 11 on the UK Singles Chart.

White co-wrote two songs on the album.
