March 17 may be Tamar Braxton‘s birthday, but it looks like she’s the one handing out gifts.

After ample teasing over the last year, the youngest of the Braxton clan has finally lifted the lid on new music – her first official release since cuts found aboard 2017’s ‘Bluebird of Happiness’ album (excluding features, soundtrack, and specialty offerings).

Titled ‘Changed,’ the tune – which incorporates elements of SWV‘s classic ‘Rain‘ – tells the tale of a love gone all sorts of wrong.

“I thought you were the man of my dreams / So how the hell was I wrong? / I gave you all of me, oh / Boy it coulda been you / I thought you were the guy of my dreams,” Braxton croons the Donald “Hazel” Sales-produced cut.

A fitting tie-in to the GRAMMY-nominated diva’s current reality show venture ‘Queens Court’ (which she recently spoke to That Grape Juice about in a sizzling exclusive), hop inside to hear ‘Changed’ in full.

Being one of her generation’s most celebrated vocalists, Tori Kelly is no stranger to heavy demand for new music.

But with four years separating music lovers from a traditional studio album of hers, their high anticipation turned into impatience – a state the GRAMMY-winning songbird addressed cryptically in the last months of 2022 before offering a surprise announcement earlier this year about her next musical offering.

Cue ‘Missin U‘: her debut single for new label home Epic Records.

“I miss that feelin’ you would bring / I miss the way that you would make my sidekick bling and bling / I look at my fingers and think about rings / Yeah, we had a good thing,” she coons on the Jon Bellion-produced tune.

Announced March 8 (as we reported here), ‘Missin’ not only marks Tori’s long-awaited return to R&B but also signals the beginning of an edgier era as alluded to by the once-blonde diva’s dark locks.

Ahead of the arrival of its official music video Friday (March 17) at 11am, hop inside to hear ‘Missin’ in full.
