Late 2017 saw Toni Braxton reemerge onto the R&B scene with word she was hard-at-work on her 7th solo studio album, currently titled ‘Sex & Cigarettes’ (reportedly due February 2018).  As the cut’s lead single, ‘Deadwood,’ earned its fair share of thumbs up from critics and her legion of staunch supporters – affectionately called #ToniTigers – the Grammy-winner is undoubtedly hoping to use some of that momentum to fuel interest in other releases leading up to the launch of ‘Cigarettes.’

Tapping ‘Baby You Can Do It’ co-star Birdman to assist, it appears the two have done it again thanks to the hip-hop fueled cut, ‘Heart Away.’ Produced by London On Da Track, the tune – a cover/remix of Derez Deshon‘s ‘Hardaway’ – hears Braxton spit some of her most braggadocious lyrics to date.
