Take Me Higher is the twenty-first studio album by American singer Diana Ross, released on September 5, 1995, by Motown Records.
Photographer Ruven Afanador shot the album cover and the fashion forward video shoot which Ross used for promotional purposes.
In a retrospective review for AllMusic, editor William Ruhlmann wrote that "combining the work of four separate producers who mostly tried to fit Ross into contemporary dance trends, the album did feature a club hit in the title song, while the ballad "Gone" made the Top 40 in the UK.
There are too many collaborators, too much synthetic production and heavy-handed sentiment [...] the only palpable vision is a firm eye on the middle of the road.
[5][8] Follow-up "Gone" became Ross' 54th top 40 entry in the UK,[5] while "If You're Not Gonna Love Me Right" reached number 67 on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.
