Undeniable is the second studio album by American singer Raven-Symoné. The album was released independently on May 4, 1999, and as of February 2007 has sold over 2,000 copies.[4] On October 31, 2006, the album was reissued by TMG Records, retitled From Then Until.

Background

After the lack of success with her debut, Here's to New Dreams, Raven was dropped from MCA Records in 1994. After a short break, she co-founded RayBlaize Records with her father, Christopher Pearman in 1996, and signed a deal with Crash Records in 1997. The song "Pure Love" was written by first season American Idol contestant EJay Day, and the song "I Love You" was written by Stevie Wonder. The album features the single "With a Child's Heart", also a Stevie Wonder song. The album sold over 2,000 copies.[4]

On October 31, 2006, the album was reissued as From Then Until by TMG Records with an alternate tracklist and cover art. The reissue managed to outsell the original by a wide margin, having sold 8,000 copies by February 2007.[4]

Promotion

Raven-Symoné was an opening act for 'N Sync's first tour, the 1998-1999 'N SYNC Tour.[5] One single was released, "With a Child's Heart", a Stevie Wonder song. It spawned three music videos, one for each version of the song.
