Taking to press Friday (September 30), the RIAA announced the GRAMMY-nominated song – which served as the lead single from her 2013 R&B chart-topping album of the same name – had crossed its threshold for Platinum certification by selling one million equivalent units in the United States.

The triumph comes as a career milestone for the diva it’s the first time she’s logged a certification of any kind from the RIAA over her 23-year solo career.

At the peak of its popularity, ‘War’ peaked at #57 on the Hot 100 and remains her highest-charting solo single on the tally.  Most notably it topped the Adult R&B Songs chart for a whopping 9 weeks – one of the chart’s longest-running reigns.

The report comes as the singer’s dedicated fans, affectionately called #Tamartians, await official news on her yet-titled fifth traditional studio album which she says has been delayed due to some unexpected behind the scenes action.

      • Malik October 8, 2022

        Black women are just more masculine by nature due to the higher level of testosterone their bodies produce, which is also the cause for their higher aggression. It’s just biology.

      B****es sound illiterate! Go get a hobby lowlifes!!!

  8. eric October 8, 2022

    Songs with this kind of melody are still few and far between. Speaking of the Braxtons, I want to see Toni tour again.

    • Peaches 🍑 October 8, 2022

      She’s busy playing quarterback

    • Ryder October 8, 2022

      Toni has Lupus. A full blown tour wouldn’t be wise. But she still has shows here and there. Her last tour was a few years ago before CØVID.

      • marilyn monh-O-E ® 👠(#1 DIVA) October 8, 2022

        Flop💅🏾
