Toni Braxton certainly wasn’t a stranger in Moscow when she touched down in the city hours ago.

There, accompanied by some of her sisters, the ‘Spanish Guitar‘ chanteuse delivered an electric show at the Crocus City Hall for some of the fans who helped her cross reported global record sales of 200 million units.

Catch more of the ‘Breathe Again‘ vocal wonder after the jump…

    Im not interested in her collabing with her sisters. I need another solo album again but with more spice like “The Heat”.

    • Ohaute November 10, 2015

      yes! I fvck with ‘The Heat’!

    She mumbles live and after that boring baby face cd. It’s a wrap for her

    • Cassandra November 9, 2015

      It more like a wrap for you, you are the only boring ass right now. It’s quite clear you don’t know good music and u can only identify with trash. Continue tho.

    • Erik November 9, 2015

      A boring album that not only won a Grammy but is certified PLATNUM in the US and DOUBLE PLATINUM Africa…its never a wrap for THE Toni Braxton..

      • MIA November 10, 2015

        Sorry Angry Ga_ys. I saw her live in concert and was extremely disappointed that her voice was not on point. We were expecting to get a greatest hits show full of great vocals and what we got was dramatic diva moments WITH NO VOCALS. we could barely understand what she was saying and she dodged all hard notes.

        She is very lackluster vocally live.

    When did she sell 200 million units? That “Chanteuse” word is used alot now. Never even knew about it, until you know who used it… Anyways, I love Toni! Her voice is still intact. Low notes on fleek. Her debut album is a R&B bible, I swear. Babyface gave her all the damn hits. She looking really good too.

    • Lisa0954 November 9, 2015

      SHE NEVER SOLD 200 million only MARIAH and MADONNA

    • Chile, leave my weave at the door and don’t steal it like those broke ass barb stans November 9, 2015

      Stephy, Mariah has been EVERYONE’S vocabulary teacher since the 90s. No one even dared to look up “Chanteuse” in a dictionary before that Queen even used it. Who needs phonics, when Mariah is still able to teach?

      • MIA November 10, 2015

        Toni stays in her lane. Even TAMAR bows down to Mariah.

        You Gays tried it.

        Toni will never belong to the 200 million club – Mariah, Madonna, MJ.

    • Toni Time November 10, 2015

      Notice he said “record sales” and not album sales. And used the word “reported”

  5. iSpeakTruthNoFallacy November 9, 2015

    TGJ Y’all dry as fvck today huh? Y’all gutter reporting from Moscow on a broad that hasn’t been relevant since the invention of the internet…

    • iSpeakTruthNoFallacy November 9, 2015

      —–SIDENOTE: This is no disrespect towards Toni Braxto; I love her. Her voice alone can get a n*gga hard. I’m just commenting on this blogs’ “journalism.”

      • Cough Cough November 9, 2015

        Girl please, Toni will always be a more acclaimed, more talented and more renowned artist then rIhanna will and can ever be. Hellllll girl, even Trina, Towanda and Traci put Miss Femty to shame on a vocal front. Just stop.

      • Erik November 9, 2015

        Yeah. Correct your disrespect because Toni is STILL relevant 25 years later. Still selling platinum albums and winning Grammys. All y’all that have so much negativity to say about these legendary artist fail to realize they will NEVER be irrelevant. Toni Braxton will live on and will be remembered FOREVER…#FACTS

      • iSpeakTruthNoFallacy November 9, 2015

        @CoughCough You’s a damn lie! Toni’s backup singer/sister do not have a voice that comes close to Rihanna. Toni is the ONLY one in that family that has a professional voice. You know damn well Tamar can’t sing no Diamonds…She can barely sing Love & War. Furthermore, I’m dissing TGJ trying to scramble a post and using Toni for “Hot Shots.” Where were all the posts promoting Toni’s album with Babyface the same way they promote Rita Whora and more recently that bish Adele?

      • iSpeakTruthNoFallacy November 9, 2015

        @Erik My disrespect is towards TGJ for using Toni for some “Hot Shots” when they rarely talk about her any other time. Toni is a legendary singer that has a voice that will last in R&B forever. With that being said, she is not culturally relevant today. If she had a residency in Vegas I’d go to see her for sure after Britney…

      • cassandra chen November 10, 2015

        Boo just say Toni is not relevant to YOU. Some of you really confuse popularity with relevance. Toni just toured SA, NZ, Australia etc with sold out shows. Most of these 90s superstars were very low key their work and accomplishments did the talking. Toni also producing her biopic and working on a solo album, her albums are classic therefore her relevance is intact!

      • Toni Time November 10, 2015

        Lol!!! They lack “journalism” because they as an r&b site wrote about an R&B singer? Go find RDela8 sis.

    • Cough Cough November 9, 2015

      @iSpeak hahahahaha hahahahah Tamar can outside Rihanna with bronchitis. Rihanna is at the bottom of the vocal list: Toni, Trina, Tamar, TowandaTowanda, Tracy, jasmine, Brandy, Beyonce, Mary j, Keyshia Cole, Monica, Adele, Amy Winehouse, Ariana grande, pink, Christina aguilera, Megan trainer, Mariah Carey, Celine soon, Patti labelelle, Alicia Keyes, Sadé, change Moore, Faith Evans, kelly price and so on and so forth about 100 other names I can add to that list that have more credible and renowned voices than Rihanna. Rihanna’s vocal peers are Madonna, Katy perry, Nicki Minaj, Taylor swift and the rest of the non vocal girls. Just stop it.

      • iSpeakTruthNoFallacy November 10, 2015

        You said it exactly right! Tamar can “outside Rihanna” as in sit outside in the parking lot of her sold out arena. Yes, ALL of those singers you listed have much stronger voices than Rihanna EXCEPT for the Backup Braxtons… Them broads can’t sing. There is a reason why L.A. Reid dumped them and only signed Toni. He’s the same man that signed Rihanna. He just knows greatness.

    • Erik November 10, 2015

      I completely understand what you are saying. Commercially Toni Braxton is not relevant. Children are NOT checking for her. However, within her demographic and the generation that grew up listening to Toni, she is still very in demand and is one of very few artist from the 90s who continues to be successful. So in that since, she is still relevant…and are you suggesting that TGJ should only post about artist that are commercially successful? Real R&B fans want to hear more about artist like Toni and less about artist such as Rihanna and whomever else is “Commercially” successful in today state of music..

      • iSpeakTruthNoFallacy November 10, 2015

        No! TGJ should post ALL elements of black music whether its coming from global megastars to a guy with 5 songs on SoundCloud. I love Toni and respect her. I have a problem, because I didn’t see much promotion during her album with Babyface. Now, when its a slow new day, a “hot shot” of Toni. I wish I could see more posts of Toni actually not just two photos.

  6. Gee November 9, 2015

    200 million units who put this article together because whoever did is reporting inaccurate information Toni has sold over 60 million albums worldwide not 200. Also can we please use another word besides chanteuse I understand the MC influence.

  7. Chile, leave my weave at the door and don’t steal it like those broke ass barb stans November 9, 2015

    I don’t care what anyone says, for her to go double-platinum AND win another Grammy in this state of the music industry, despite her age and lack of appeal on behalf of the young people, that’s very impressive! She’s the queen of being first (before Adele) to have three #1 Hot 100 hits from a diamond album. She HAS TWO DIAMOND ALBUMS, YALL! TWO!

    • MIA November 10, 2015

      Diamond CD? When? 20 years ago. Gurl bye; She can’t sing live. You Gays are totally on some Fraud S_hit.

      • cassandra chen November 10, 2015

        Your hearing is so use to trash you cannot identity with quality live singing. I am happy we live in a time were there are proof all around the net when concert occurs, have a seat! Her shows are awesome, people would not be travelling all around the world yearly to see her in concert if her vocal was not good. Lying ass…try again

      • Lmfao_Hoe November 10, 2015

        You think your funny, they said the same bs about Whitney, Mariah, Toni, and ect. What makes you think they won’t say the same s*** about Adele when she gets older? Including Ariana both whom are already showing signs of vocal difficulties. Her first performance of Hello was good but was average, she’s not powerhouse like Whitney, Mariah, Lisa Fischer, Monica, Tamia, Jill Scott ect blow the roof off.

      • Chile, leave my weave at the door and don’t steal it like those broke ass barb stans November 10, 2015

        Girl, you closeted-case cowards think you know it all. Do me and yourself a favor and pay a visit to RIAA to see those certifications. You’re welcome! BOTH “Secrets” and “Self-titled” have been certified 8x platinum SINCE ’97. THOSE ALBUMS ARE DIAMOND NOW AND YOU HATERS WILL LEARN TO PUT THAT HATE ASIDE AND BE PRODUCTIVE SOME OTHER WAY. Please and thank you!

    • coolness November 10, 2015

      I love your commentary but Diamond album? I thought Secrets has only been certified 8x? Still a legend nonetheless.

      • Erik November 10, 2015

        Those records were certified 8x platinum way back in 97!!..Secrets was only out a year at that time and was certified 8x platinum..over 20 years later BOTH those albums are CLASSICS and continue to sell. Its pretty obvious that theyve became Diamond selling albums since 97 sweet heart..

  8. Erik November 9, 2015

    Yes, its true. Mariah made the word “Chanteuse” relevant. Toni however, can still be considered a Chanteuse.. #noshade

  9. What now November 9, 2015

    She still looks great. Face a lil puffy but I’m sure it’s the lupus. My Mom actually passed away from lupus so everyday I see Toni alive and doing well makes muah genuinely smile. RIP Maman . Je t’aime et je souhaite que vous étiez toujours là .

    • Chile, leave my weave at the door and don’t steal it like those broke ass barb stans November 10, 2015

      I’m genuinely sorry to hear that. I hope you’ve been doing well and progressing much better each succeeding day. I also think it’s pretty cute that you know French. Such a cute language to speak with your loved ones.

  10. Barb-wire November 10, 2015

    Queen!!! Still very relevant and still winning.

  11. shakira stan November 10, 2015

    Just another has been diva on a fast lane to bankruptcy .( yawns )

    • cassandra chen November 10, 2015

      You are a nobody who live in someone past, only an idiot does that..yawn 2016 is approaching stop being lame come up with a new quote, overplayed!

  12. coolness November 10, 2015

    Ah, the woman whose photo currently occupies my avi, the iconic Toni Braxton, (or is it Halle Berry? Lol) is looking great! I chuckle whenever I see Rihanna fans try to form an opinion on talent be it singing or performing because they’re fav is pretty much at the bottom of the totem pole as far as that factor is concerned. Stick to debating single sales and her red carpet looks because that’s pretty much all she’s good for.

    • shakira stan November 10, 2015

      I ain’t no rihanna fan ,keep trying

    • coolness November 10, 2015

      I don’t remember replying or directing my comments towards you so run along now…

  13. Ohaute November 10, 2015

    I LOVE her so much!

  14. Kay for tonibraxton November 10, 2015
