*Tamar Braxton says she loves her some Rihanna, but her “Unapologetic” album should not have been nominated in the Best Urban Contemporary Album category at the Grammys.
“She doesn’t sing R&B music. She’s a pop star,” the youngest Braxton sister told Power 105.1’s Angie Martinez on Monday (July 20). “I had an issue with that a little bit. I love her [though]. Glad she won.”
Asked what she considers R&B, Tamar said: “It’s called Rhythm and Blues. Ribs and Barbecue. It’s not pop pop pop tat uh tat tat tat. It’s soulful. That’s R&B. Every song of hers I’ve gotten my complete and utter life to… twerking. I’m just saying. I love her; I’m one of her biggest fans period, but that’s not R&B music.”
Tamar also talks about ending her beef with K. Michelle at the BET Awards, her facial expressions from that performance being memed, accidentally riling up Kylie Jenner and much more in the interview below. (The Rihanna talk begins at 8:25.)
