Tamar Braxton’s Black Pride Performance Sparks Debate Over Her Vocals: ‘Tamar Has No Business Singing Like This’

Tamar Braxton’s performance at Global Black Pride in Atlanta hit a sour note with fans.

The 47-year-old singer and reality star drew criticism from fans after her set over the weekend, where she performed Let Me Know in a black mesh bodysuit paired with Chanel accessories.

Despite her stylish outfit and energetic dance moves, social media users were quick to critique her vocals after a fan-made video of the performance circulated.

On X (formerly Twitter), reactions varied. One tweet highlighted a perceived irony in the situation, referencing Tamar Braxton’s past criticism of fellow singer Kandi Burruss:

“Not the universe swinging back at Tamar Braxton for calling Kandi Burruss ‘Billy Goat Voice’ last year and now she went to a festival with vocals winded and fried to the mic.”

In contrast, another user defended Tamar Braxton’s talent, stating:

“Tamar Braxton is a vocalist through and through. All singers have bad days but let’s not get it twisted, the girl is TALENTED.”

A third comment shifted the focus from Braxton, humorously suggesting that her fiancé, Jeremy “JR” Robinson, was responsible for her performance:

“I blame that white man. Tamar ain’t got no business singing like this. As many times she went a cappella on BFV.”

Despite the criticism, Tamar received the Ultimate Icon Award at the event and took to Instagram to express how she feels blessed and is moving forward, posting:

“Y’all, the future for me is IT! I’m so excited and blessed about what God has in store for me and how the devil lost! Ahhhhhaaaaaa! No ties to the past—everyday FORWARD.”
