Keeping the Braxton Music Legacy with Tamar

tamar

They say that sometimes, talent runs in the blood, and this is attested by how sisters Toni and Tamar Braxton reached success in their careers. Following the footsteps of her older sister, Tamar Estine Braxton-Herbert, or more popularly known as Tamar Braxton, made an icon out of herself by focusing on almost the same genres as Toni, namely R&B, pop and soul.

Like any other music-inclined family, Tamar Braxton set out on a journey with her sisters as The Braxtons, which left an impressive foothold in 1992. Technically, this was Tamar’s first exposure to what the music industry is all about and she, together with two of her sisters, managed to release an album entitle ‘So Many Ways’ which can be remembered through songs like The Boss, Slow Flow and Only Love.

Despite the small claim to fame garnered by Tamar’s group, she decided to go solo in 2000, which immediately sparked up DreamWorks Records’ desire to aid a budding diva in her persona.

From her feisty start with DreamWorks, Tamar Braxton’s musical career went wild and she managed to release a total of four albums ‘Calling All Lovers’ as the latest. Aside from her singing passion, Tamar Braxton also ventured into other forms of performing arts such as being a television host and a reality television personality.

Generally, Tamar’s exposure matches her older sister’s range, and music experts say that this is better provided that she remain in the loop for years to come. Since 2012, Tamar Braxton put her faith on Epic/Streamline Productions for her musical venture, which also introduced the talented singer into submerging herself into concert tours such as the Black Panties Tour (with R. Kelly), Promise to Love Tour (with Kem) and the Love in the Future Tour (with John Legend).

On her second album, Tamar solidified her fan-base in online music streaming upon the release of title track ‘Love and War’, which immediately became a download favorite in 2013.

Overall, the albums that have been officially released by Tamar are as follows: Tamar (2000), Love and War (2013), Winter Loversland (2013) and Calling All Lovers (2015).

During the course of her long career, Tamar received a couple of accolades from huge award-giving bodies such as the BET Awards where she won the Centric Award in 2013, several nominations from the Grammy Awards for Love and War (Best Urban Contemporary Album, Best R&B Song and Best R&B Performance) and the Soul Train Awards where she got the Song of the Year and The Ashford and Simpson Songwriter’s Awards for the song ‘Love and War’.
