[edit] Dropped from Casablanca?

Tamar Braxton has since been dropped from Casablanca Records. <-- WHERE IS YOUR SOURCE?

I cut this since I am not sure she was dropped and another editor added the request for a source. Antares33712 14:31, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

There is no source that Tamar Braxton signed with Casablanca Records. Please provide one Riker5589 10:04 P.M., July 17, 2006

[edit] Doubts to her coloratura?

It doesn't take a published source to hear a whistle note. Buy a copy of her album and lsten to track 4 (approximately 2:42 seconds into the song). Enjoy Antares33712 14:02, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Voice and sourcing statements

Before anyone restores comments on her voice, please read WP:LIVING. As Youtube accepts submissions from all members of the public, music or videos posted up there cannot be used as verifiable sources. Surely such things as the statements that have sadly had to have been removed have been said in interviews? LinaMishima 17:03, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Many singers just sing and are unaware of their note ranges..--I'll bring the food 17:21, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm sure of that. But there has to be comentators, djs, professors... someone who has made such comments. It seems to me that we have an unfortunate situation. certain facts may be considered unnotable to those experienced in the field (eg, a musician's vocal range) and hence never get written down. However to those who are interested but not experts, such information is desired. LinaMishima 18:22, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

I think requiring an outside person to see if a note is whistle register is like needing someone to tell me the grass is green or whether the sky is blue. But I don't care anymore. This has convinced me its time to leave Antares33712 19:50, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

She is known as the highest voice out of the sisters with Toni as their lowest. Her note in Money Can't Buy You Love is D7. Thats pretty high in the whistle register. Thats the top of most Coloratura's ranges. I'm pretty sure she knew how high she was singing. Myke 00:04, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Switching Sisters???

Which sister are we talking about here - Toni or Tamar?

When I read the beginning of the second paragraph ("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 text referred seemingly to Tamar's sister, Toni Braxton.

Also, the organization of the article shifts haphazardly from Tamar, to Toni, to The Braxtons (sister group), and back to Tamar without a focus squarely on Tamar herself. This organization makes the article look as though it was put together in a piecemeal fashion.

Also, I could swear that I saw some of this content at another site online some time ago (in a promotional writeup for Toni Braxton's bio?), so I'll check later for a source to see whether parts of this article suggests a possible a copyrighted violation.
