Guaranteed is the third solo album by the American R&B singer Morris Day.[3][4] It was released in 1992.[5] The album adopted a different sound than Day's previous efforts. Focusing on new jack swing, it had more input from outside producers and composers than Day's previous projects. It was commercially unsuccessful. Big Daddy Kane raps on "Angel Don't".[6]
The Indianapolis Star wrote: "Day has a new set of priorities on his third solo disc, trading his cartoonish, mirror-toting image for one closer to that of a hip, socially conscious adult."[8] The St. Petersburg Times concluded that, "minus his royal slyness, the material slumps by on a tepid serving of refried new-jack beats."[9] The Orange County Register determined that the "wan funk and tepid R&B balladry only shows that the sun has set on this Day."[10]
