Towanda braxton
Her musical journey begun in Church and of course the time that R and B became popular. People were using the church when it comes to their first few performances. The church has everything when it comes to showcasing your talent. And the type of voice that you need to sing Gospel. And that’s why many people that started singing in church have such good voices. And they tend to do really well. They all also grew up in a strict religious household. And they valued Music. In the late 80s she also became part of The Braxtons. At that time Toni Braxton was coming up in the Industry.
The time that they were starting out they were dropped from Arista Records. This was hard for the Sisters because they obviously wanted to make a name for themselves and Toni left the group. To pursue a career as a solo artist. Their debut song was released in the year 1990. At this time they had fresh competition. And it was TLC. It would be difficult when it comes to competing with people like this. TLC had hit songs back to back. And because of the age differences between the sisters it was even difficult to market them. When you look at the age gaps.
Who would they market to? The group. The Braxtons didn’t achieve mainstream success. This was hard on the group. Because their sister’s solo career was skyrocketing. And they also had their own dreams when it comes to achieving success as well. And this could have worked out really well for them. It was good for them to release their own project because the public will then have an idea what type of sound does the group have. And what they have to offer. After Toni Braxton pursued a career as a solo artist. The dynamic changed when it comes to the sisters. They all became backup singers for Toni.
They appeared in her Music videos and were featured on her tours as well. This was interesting because Toni went solo first and achieved a lot of success. This can sometimes make Sisters jealous when it comes to seeing their sisters achieving so much success during the 90s and it was back to back. And in June 1996 they released an album. The album also featured a remix from Jay-Z and their song was used as a movie soundtrack for High School High. Their song “Only Love” reached number 52 on the Billboard chart. They were introduced to the public. The Braxton name at that time became very mainstream.
And when they heard Braxton they knew that they had to be related to someone famous. And in 2011 they were featured in a reality TV show called the Braxtons. This gave an idea for the public to see what type of people the sisters are. And whatever project that they have. They could show it to the world. People got to see the family dynamic. And also when it comes to the reality TV show it gave us an idea of what was going on in the 90s. The sisters’ relationship and their mother’s and also father as well. Their brother wasn’t featured in the show that much.
Toni Braxton was also featured into acting as well. When singers are going their own thing as a group. They could also be involved in different projects like Hood Riches, Gangster Daughter.
Acting is good and it makes sense for Towanda to want to do it because she has been featured in a reality TV show. And from that opportunities can come from doing hosting, producing, music, movies. And it could work out really well. She comes from a famous last name and sometimes it’s hard to find your own identity and people only see you for that when that happens.
They may see you as being associated with your sister Toni Braxton. And that can be hard when it comes to moving on from your last name and carving out your own identity. It can be really hard to find your own voice. Because that’s what people see you as. That’s why reality show it’s good because it can really help out when it comes to creating your own lane. Some people may say that you have benefitted from your sister’s fame. And sometimes that can be true. However, you need to make sure that you’re working hard for people to see you for you. And that can be hard to move on from that image.
There has been a transition in her journey when it comes to doing backup to doing her own thing and being featured in a reality TV show. Since then she has lost a sister called Traci and it was from cancer. She hasn’t released any individual project yet. It would be interesting because the sound from the 90s to now has evolved and it’s very different from what it used to be. And should people keep up when it comes to the sound right now. There are some people that may say yes or even no.
That may work out. However, when it comes to your audience you need to figure that out when it comes to it. The Braxton family have made an impact from their music or even their reality TV show. The sisters have been doing their own thing for a while. Music wise they released a Christmas album in 2015. And this was a project in a long time that we got to hear the sisters together. And it’s amazing to hear their project together. Many people were excited to hear them working together again. It was a very long time and this was definitely needed. And the fact that it was a Christmas album that was really good.
Toni Braxton also released her own Biopic. And she featured her sisters when it comes to her journey. This allowed people to see what really happened when it came to her journey and it was interesting to watch when it comes to the sister dynamics. They have such an interesting thing to be seen. So many good things have happened when it came to it. And it gave an opportunity for people to see the sisters evolved. And the sisters have evolved well when it comes to the sisters doing their own thing. And figuring out themselves and who they are. And it’s been amazing to see.
