NEW YORK, Sept. 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Tamar Braxton's album, Love and War [Streamline/Epic Records], reached #1 on both the Billboard Top R&B Albums Chart and iTunes R&B Albums Chart in addition to being the No.1-selling physical album overall. It's the top R&B album in the country and debut album from Streamline Records.

She celebrated the album's release with performances on Good Morning America, Live With Kelly & Michael, and Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.

Currently, her latest single "All The Way Home" continues to soar. It serves as a fitting follow-up to the tracklisting's other smash singles "The One" and the title track "Love & War"— which climbed to No. 1 at both Urban Adult Contemporary and No.1 of the iTunes Top Songs Chart.

In addition, Braxton excitedly announces the release of her very first Christmas album, available October 22^nd. In addition to giving a variety of holiday classics the "Tamar" touch, she's recorded a bevy of originals for the set as well. She's providing a whole new soundtrack to Christmas this year with a whole lot of swagger and soul under the tree.

Meanwhile, she continues to turn heads on television as well. The second season of her Braxton Family Values spin-off and hit series, Tamar & Vince, premiered on WE tv last week to a massive audience.
