''Love and War'' was met with generally positive reviews from [[music journalism|music critic]]s. Andy Kellman of [[AllMusic]] gave the album three out of five stars, saying "Indeed, ''Love and War'' plays out like it's designed to contend with the likes of [[Ciara]], [[Rihanna]], [[Trey Songz]], and maybe even [[Keyshia Cole]], rather than those who came up around the same time as Braxton. Slower, more atmospheric productions like 'Stay and Fight,' 'All the Way Home,' and 'Sound of Love' suit her the best and display her considerable skill -- by now, given some of the artists who have come and gone since 2000, she should have at least four albums in her past. The lighthearted numbers -- like the Keri Hilson castoff-level 'Tip Toe,' the mind-numbing 'Hot Sugar,' and the Mike Will knockoff strip-club track 'She Did That' -- are no match for the fully formed songs that seem rooted in Braxton's life experiences."<ref name="allmusic1"/> Kathy Iandoli of ''[[Vibe (magazine)|Vibe]]'' gave the album a positive review, saying "''Love And War'' is at times all over the place, but that's perfectly fine.

Untitled

Love and War is the second studio album by American recording artist Tamar Braxton. The album was released on September 3, 2013, by Epic Records and Streamline Records.[1] It is the first album by Braxton in 13 years.[2][3] The album was a success, debuting at number two on the US Billboard 200 chart selling 114,000 copies. Eventhough plans for a re-release of the album with a full version of the song "She Did That" and a rap remix of "One on One Fun" in 2014 with additional songs were announced, the idea was eventually scrapped as Love and War was never re-published.[4]

Singles

The album's title track "Love and War" was released on December 6, 2012 as the lead single from the album.[5] On January 17, 2013, the music video was released for "Love and War". "Love and War" officially impacted US Rhythmic radio on March 26, 2013.[6] On May 7, 2013, the second single "The One" was released.[7] On May 30, 2013, the music video was released for "The One".[8] " All The Way Home" was sent to Urban Mainstream radio on August 21, 2013 as the third single from the album.[9] On October 17, 2013, a music video was released for "Hot Sugar".[10] The music video for "All The Way Home" was released on December 4, 2013.[11]

I feel like it was only a couple thousands between us, and really, honestly she has like 10 million followers, I have like 800.000 followers and that speaks volumes, my audience is not as big as Ariana's [...] I feel like the attention that Love and War has gotten so far, was the right attention [...] and no one is looking at the charts, after that my album outsold her for three weeks
