The Message is the sixth studio album by American singer Chi Coltrane, released in 1986 by German label Teldec. "I Didn't Want to Fall in Love" was the sole single to be released from the album.
In a retrospective review for AllMusic, critic Charles Donovan wrote that "The Message follows the same pattern as Ready to Roll – a grab-bag of uptempo, synth numbers, and languid ballads.", adding that "As before, nothing here wrenches the heart in the way Coltrane's first few albums did."[1]
