Tracie is the third and final studio album by R&B singer Tracie Spencer released on June 29, 1999. It was her first album in nine years on Capitol Records. The primary reason for the length of time between her studio albums was due to Capitol's constant changes. At the time, the label went through several CEO's and eventually shut down their urban music division from 1996-1999. When the record label got a new president in former Arista Records executive Roy Lott, he revived Capitol's long-struggling urban music division. Spencer acknowledged the changes within Capitol in the liner notes of Tracie. She stated: "I have seen a lot of changes occur at the tower, but that's just the way life goes. I have nothing but love and respect for my record company. Change is good".

Spencer acknowledged the changes within Capitol in the liner notes of Tracie. She stated: "I have seen a lot of changes occur at the tower, but that's just the way life goes. I have nothing but love and respect for my record company. Change is good". Although this is Spencer's first album in nearly a decade, this was not her first recording of new material. She recorded a couple of songs for the soundtracks of two films from the late 1990s. She sang "I'll Be There For You" for the 1997 Nickelodeon film Good Burger as well as the DJ Quik produced "The Rain" for the 1998 Maya Angelou directed film Down in the Delta. She worked with the Danish R&B production team Soulshock & Karlin for all but one song on Tracie, with Dallas Austin protege Arnold Hennings providing his lone contribution "Love To You". Two singles were released from the album in 1999 with "It's All About You (Not About Me)" and "Still in My Heart", aided by music videos directed by Francis Lawrence and Kevin Bray, respectively. Tracie went to #114 on the Billboard 200 and #19 on R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart becoming her highest charting album on that chart. (en)
  • Tracie är den amerikanska sångaren Tracie Spencers tredje studioalbum utgivet av Capitol Records den 29 juni 1999. Albumet tjänade som uppföljare till Make the Difference (1990) vars framgångar cementerat hennes status som en "tonårssensation" vid 16 års ålder. Tracie beskrevs som en viktig milstolpe i Spencers musikkarriär då den var en comeback efter nästan ett decenniums frånvaro men också ett försök att utveckla tonårsstilen till ett vuxnare uttryck. Spencer inledde ett samarbete med den danska produktionsduon Soulshock and Karlin för att skapa ett "moget" och "råare" album med inslag av hiphop som blev en tydlig artistisk stiländring från hennes tidigare musik. Hon skrev sju låtar till albumet själv och samarbetade även med textförfattare som Tamara Savage, Andrea Martin och . Vid utgivningen möttes Tracie med generellt positiva recensioner av professionella musikjournalister. På amerikanska albumlistan Billboard 200 blev albumets framgångar dessvärre små. Den nådde som högst plats 114 och föll snabbt ur några veckor senare. Albumet presterade bättre på Billboards Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums där den nådde plats 19. Fram till november 1999 hade Tracie sålts i 120 000 exemplar. Två musiksinglar släpptes från projektet. Huvudsingeln "It's All About You (Not About Me)" blev en hit som nådde topp-tjugo på amerikanska Hot 100-listan och topp-tio på förgreningslistan Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. "Still in My Heart" gavs ut som albumets andra och sista singel år 2000 och nådde topp-fyrtio på R&B-listan. (sv)
