This week saw ‘All The Way Home’ hitmaker Tamar Braxton watch her new album ‘Love & War’ take off all the way to the top of Billboard charts.
Skyrocketing to Billboard 200’s #2 (R&B: #1) spot(s), the songstress fended off competition from the likes of Robin Thicke, Jaheim, and John Legend (whom she is due to tour the States with in the coming weeks).
Seemingly winning on every front, as she is also in hot promotion of season 2 of hit WeTV series ‘Tamar & Vince’, today SHE was given a new notch to add to her winner’s streak after Billboard unveiled a chart record she set.
Find out what it was below and hear Tamar sound off on her new album, tour with John Legend, and so much more:
“The youngest sibling of R&B icon Toni Braxton first appeared on the list with “Tamar” (No. 42 debut and peak) on April 8, 2000. 13 years and five months later, Braxton sets the female record for longest time between an initial chart listing and a first No. 1 in this chart’s SoundScan era (December 1992 to present).
The record was previously held by Angie Stone, who waited eight years and two weeks (1999-2007).”
Tidbit: Elsewhere on the R&B charts this week, John Legend‘s newest project ‘Love In The Future’ sold 68,000 copies to land at #2 on R&B charts while Jaheim‘s ‘Appreciation Day’ clocked 58,000 to land at #3.
Congratulations are in order to all!

Who is this?
Someone who’s outselling Ciara. Ooops. Everyone is. I should be more specific. Someone who is outselling Ciara, didn’t put out 10 “buzz singles” ahead of the album release, and doesn’t have a prostate.
lmao Kiiiii!
YASSS!! SLAY VINCESS HERBERT!! FCKIN SLAY!! YOU BUY YO WIFEYS ALBUMS I AINT MAD HONEY!!
He aint buy s***!! She actually sold that many copies. Buying albums equals cheating & Nielson would not allow that maybe RIAA but certainly not Soundscan… Also, if Vincent bought all her albums how tha f*** they gonna make REVENUE!!! Ps. If my husband is Vincent THE HERBERT & has all that money, if he would’ve bought all my albums it wouldve went number 1… Congrats Tamar HATTERSSS

But it’ll sell 30K to 35K next week tho
So what? How’s Llama’s album doing? 🙂
I dont know IT!
Bet you it well sell in between 20-25k next week.
And you’re still a broke SON OF A B****
WRONG!!! Soundscan era begin in 1991 of March… Idiots

FLOP FLOP FLOP, and it’ll get worse after tonight. FOX will most definitely cancel FLOP Factor, and this is after Kelly NowhereLand twerks for Simon to keep a job that is no longer guaranteed.
I guess she should have remembered she has an album out.
Kii
how is this relevant to the conversation?
oh a katy stan. its hilarious even typing that. let me hit up my homegirl bonnie who writes the hits for katy to discuss her next single.
back to the tamar braxton sales. we KNOW this was doctored a little. i’ve heard the album. its paint by numbers r&b thats been done before and done better by someone that shares some chromosomes with this chick.
on a more important note whats goin on with mr. legend? he may need a hiatus to rediscover his mojo. i haven’t been crazy impressed with his s*** since the save room era.
Katy co-writes all of her songs you flop. She even wrote Thinking of You, her best song by herself. Not many pop stars do that
Please that show isn’t going anywhere and neither is Kelly Rowland! 6.8 million isn’t all that bad and its second in its timeslot! Its not Kellys show! People will get use to the new format and drama free judges!

Nope it’s projected to sell 30-35k next week you’ll are really mad f*** off plus it may exceed with the show coming on tonight new fans etc fall back haters
she didn’t set s***.
TAMAR BRAXTON IS A LESBIAN
her husband is gay, her sister is broke, what’s new?
old ass lesbian
What about ur mom????
I don’t see how this is a record to be proud if but congrats I guess.
Good Morning;
If you don’t like someone why even get on here. especially to be the first or the second person to say something. go and get on something that you like. can any of you actually sing yourself. and why haven’t we not heard of you.
Why can’t you just leave people along. Tamar can sing and Kelly can sing too.
WHERE’S ROSIE?
All i’ll say is that if her husband was gonna buy her albums for her, I would think he would buy more than 117K copies LOL
no one is checkin for you, go away Tamar. send back Toni; she’s the better sibling.
She hit a record for waiting too long to put out music? Wow
Why is she lying. Tamar didn’t write love and war she didn’t even like the song at first.
I want to like her, but something ain’t right…and not to mention she put down several vet rnb stars when she made her comment about selling 100k+ first week. she out sold a lot of other artist than just K michelle, so she shouldn’t have said that…
that’s cocky, and she will b humbled.
Braveheart, as in Ashanti? girl here –>> _/
