Tamar is the name of three artists: Tamar Braxton, Tamar Kaprelian, and Tamar Davis.
1. Tamar Braxton was born on September 25, 1977 in Severn, Maryland to Michael and Evelyn Braxton. The youngest of the Braxton’s six children, Tamar started singing as a toddler. Evelyn, herself an opera singer, recognized her children’s talents when one day, Tamar, sang “Can you please get me some toilet paper!” Evelyn quickly started training her girls, and eventually enrolled them in singing lessons. The Braxton children also would eventually enter in their church choir, where Michael Braxton was pastor.
Brought up in a strict Christian household, secular music was initially frowned upon, causing the children to sneak and sing along to Soul Train when the parents were out of the house. They would soon start harmonizing, forming a girl group. Tamar says of this period “I was always the highest note.” Her voice was in sharp contrast to her older sister’s husky contralto.
One day, Toni (who had no real aspirations of show business at that point) was pumping gas at a local gas station while singing along, when she caught the attention of a producer. He heard her sing, and decided to pull the five sisters into a group; he envisioned a female version of the Jackson 5. They released a single on Atlantic Records in 1990 as “The Braxtons,” and caught the attention of producers Antonio “L.A” Reid and Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds. The two had just started a then flegling record label, LaFace, with Arista Records. The guys passed on the group, as they had just signed a new trio named TLC, but they were looking for a solo female artist. So the girls talked it over, and Toni decided to embark on her now famous solo career.
