Toni Braxton is unbreaking the hearts of her legions of fans.
Today, the soulful contralto confirmed that she has a new album in the works.
Details in earnest after the jump…
The legendary diva revealed that the project her first solo release in seven years, is christened ‘Sex & Cigarettes’ and will be arriving in early 2018.
Its lead single, as we reported, is indeed titled ‘Deadwood’ and will be dropping imminently.
As for why the LP is titled as such, Braxton touted the fact that she’s grown and keen to talk about grown topics.
‘Sex’ follows 2010’s ‘Pulse’ and 2014’s Grammy winning collaboration album ‘Love, Marriage, Divorce’ with Babyface. It also comes after a lengthy hiatus, during which the songbird contemplated retirement and focussed on her acting endeavours.
Watch below as the 49-year-old expands on what she’s been up to.
Yes, yes, and yes!
Toni is a tower of talent and possesses a creative consistency that is hugely underrated.
Her confidence when explaining the project’s title excites us most; after a few years of uncertainty, it’s great to see her confident in her craft and assertive about her output.
Now THIS is an Album title! No shade Tamar. Excited for both!
Cant wait to hear it. This just confirms more that Tamar is rushing an album out to compete with her sister. Tamar is a fale, cold, ghetto hoodrat i will never support. I definitely will be buying Toni’s album though.
Agrees with you there!! ??♂️
Preach, high-fiving yah!
Tamar has been working on her album for a while now I doubt this has anything to do with competition it’s great to see both Toni and Tamar releasing new material as there is room for them both.
Yes it does. Tamar is very hateful and spiteful. Look what she did to her sister Traci when Traci had an album coming out (releasing a single same day and spreading those autotune rumors like Travi cant sing). Look how she tried to block the Braxton’s Christmas album from being released by only recording one track on ot and complaining that the christmas album release would interfere with her Calling All Lovers sales. All of this stuff was yelevised on BFV so i cannot pretend like i have not seen her sisters confront her on her evil ways. That is why Tar has no real frienda anymore too. Tamar is a low down evil person thirsty for stardom when she was never meant to be a star in the first place. Toni is the real star in that family and not Muppetface Ernestein Herbert.
Girl shut up. Are you an insider? Oh you know the Braxton’s huh. All the tea huh girl? Try hard..
@Cough All of this was shown on Braxton Family Values. Don’t come for me b/tch. It is not my fault you are slow!
Don’t worry, sis. Tamar will never be at Toni’s level, even during toni’s pre fame
I think something is seriously wrong with Tamar. Who acts like her? I wouldn’t buy her music, but I would pay her to never utter another word in her life.
What a naturally elegant woman! I see this time around Toni wants to be a little more risque, but I’m here for it! The video looks promising and Toni always delivers vocally! She never makes bad albums!
@Cough Cough Everything the person said was facts. It came on TV so stop being delusional. Tamar album should have been out months ago. I don’t know what is holding it up, but she always make stupid decision when releasing..my man come and went. Toni just finished shooting a movie, soon release her single and album will be in the early part of 2018. Tamar is taking too long to release so some will lose interest and not eager to purchase after release. Her die hard fans need not to say anything because they wont change the result. Tamar has been doing interview about this album from February, it’s now September..
She’s one of the bast Soft/RnB singer I’ve ever non , I can’t wait for the Albam
I’m. Waiting to hear some good music Ms Baxton (Toni) this is good news.
Can’t wait!
Why is there even comparism between 2 sisters? They are in different lanes. Both want to use BFV to promote their new album cos they are shooting new episodes. Let’s just support them because they are both talented and deserve to shine.
Tamar deserves nothing! She has a dreadful personality. Why do you want disgusting people like her to be successful?
Tamar is a shallow, star-seeking, horrible human being. She does not deserve any type of fame, but in this “everything-that’s-bad-is-good” society she probably will become famous. However, at some point, she will be cut down to size, trust! KARMA!
It is difficult to believe that Toni is related to Tamar the terrible!
