Toni Braxton and Babyface blend their A-star talents together for upcoming album ‘Love, Marriage & Divorce’.
Preceded by Urban radio hit ‘Hurt You’, the album -which is billed as a musical drama-saw its accompanying cover unwrapped earlier today.
Due on November 25th, the project marks the first time the pair have sung on a record together in over 20 years, and 13 since they collaborated in any capacity (on Braxton’s 2000 LP ‘The Heat’). Prior to the then, the duo cooked up chart landmarks such as ‘Breathe Again’ and ‘You’re Making Me High’.
Speaking to ESSENCE, Toni said of their new album:
“I think because Babyface and I have both gone through divorces, we can relate and we can collaborate together on this topic and make it so others who have gone through this situation can relate”.

Having heard a sizeable amount of the album, we’re oh so amped for the full course. Fans of the pair will be elated to note that the project isn’t the standard run-of-the-mill duet LP. It’s a qualitative, sonically rich, and a stellar addition to their respective catalogues. Very grown and sexy. We can’t get enough of a track titled ‘Steam’. Remember where you read that first!
These two are so into each other… they need to get it over and done with
Queen Toni!
Too bad it will flop;
Tamar will never push Toni’s numbers and Tamar will NEVER be the legend that is Toni
Sit you ass down…Do you know who Toni Braxton and Babyface are? I am not the one to shade Tamar neither. I know real talent. Tamar would shut you up in a second.
HOT cover! I mean Toni Braxton can rock that look from 20 years ago like it´s nothing. So s*** and classy.
Weird album title though. Hope the music is great.
Thought she retired.
Thought overdose would slay…
cantwait for the album to drop out! Toni is so talented and yet so underrated! I feel like people nowadays cant recognize TRUE TALENT! and REAL SINGERS!
I am so rooting for this project! I just hope the label promotes it well. Promoting on blogs are nice but nothing reaches the masses like television and radio.
I’ll buy two copies for my mom and aunt. They’re Toni fanatics! I’m not into adult AC music, but Toni is a legend. Best of luck to her!
I’m XD

I can’t wait for the album, this cover is everything!! Remember to ✔Share & ✔Like The video it’s BEAUTIFUL
