Tamar Braxton

Starting her career as a member of The Braxtons with her sisters (Trina and Towanda), they released their debut album, So Many Ways, reaching 113 on the US Billboard 200. She obtained a record deal in 1999 with DreamWorks Records, after meeting producer Tricky Stewart. She released her debut solo record in 2000, called Tamar. Four tracks that didn’t make the cut were released in an EP prior to Tamar. After a few features after the album’s release, DreamWorks Records dropped her in 2001. From 2002-2010, she was constantly looking for ways to get back into the music business, either by writing songs (for Toni), going from label to label (where she only released singles) and being a background singer (for Toni). In 2011, things started to look up, when Braxton Family Values premiered. She got a record deal soon after in 2012 just before the beginning of the second series. Her second solo record, Love and War, was released in 2013, reaching number 2 on the US Billboard 200, four successful singles, over 120,000 copies in the first week and a Grammy nomination (for Love and War, the lead single). She has gone on to release three more albums and is becoming ever more successful with the Braxton show, a Braxton family album (for Christmas in 2014), The Real (2013-16) and her son Logan.
