{"product_id":"calling-all-lovers","title":"Calling All Lovers","description":"Photographers: Robert Ector; Marcelo Cantu.\u003cbr\u003eTamar Braxton's return to music in 2013 could not have gone much better. Love and War debuted at number two, featured a number one R\u0026amp;B hit and two additional singles that either scraped or peaked near the Top Ten. Three Grammy nominations resulted. Follow-up Calling All Lovers is wrapped up like it offers even more theatrics. Braxton isn't smiling in any of the photos contained in the booklet, which is made to look like a newspaper titled Tamartian Times. (Braxtonian Beacon was likely never considered; \"Tamartian\" is a nod to her followers). The album starts in scattered fashion with some neo-reggae, a retro-modern midtempo groove that evokes breakbeat-driven early-'90s productions, and a church-ified ballad. After those three songs, the album stabilizes, sliding between a number of plush ballads and sophisticated but bumping slow jams. Heartache prevails during the first half and crests with \"Never,\" an authoritative and elegantly paced kiss-off of an inappreciative lover. The latter half is mostly about devotion and awe, while the back-to-back \"Love It\" (all booming bass, tapping keyboards, and rattling percussion) and \"Must Be Good to You\" (light and springy disco-funk) turn it up several degrees with Braxton offering firm declarations of her sexual power. Calling All Lovers doesn't merely offer more than what its packaging suggests. It might not feature a single as big as \"Love and War,\" but it tops that song's parent album. ~ Andy Kellman","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52510743953695,"sku":"888750389626","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/edc50f619a2a4f91adac5ad5e4a8c507.jpg?v=1777823748","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/calling-all-lovers","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
