| Toni Braxton and Babyface reunite for a duet album. |
The veteran R & B producer and crooner reunites with the pop singer to record a duet album.
The Island Def Jam Music Group now has control over the Motown Records label.
Love, Marriage & Divorce includes eleven tracks including their Adult R&B #1 single, "Hurt You" as well as the second single "Where Did We Go Wrong". The album was originally due for release on November 25, 2013, although its release was delayed until the week before Valentine's Day.
The album is Babyface’s first new studio album in nearly seven years and Toni’s first new album since 2010’s Pulse.
Toni announced that she was returning to music with a Summer Tour and that she was in the studio working on her eighth studio album. She also stated that the album will not be a traditional album but rather a collaboration album featuring long-time collaborator Babyface. The album will entirely consist of duets between Braxton and Babyface.
