#NewMusic, Toni Braxton – Deadwood

Living Legend Toni Braxton is back with her new song “Deadwood” from her upcoming album, “Sex & Cigarettes.” 

Truthfully, it took me three listens to go from “blah” to, “well okay now Toni.” “Deadwood” comes off as a mix of alternative mixed with R&B. Braxton’s tone and register has not changed, giving us true Toni Braxton style, but it is a little different. “Deadwood” is more than just a piece of a dead tree, it is also defined as “people or things that are no longer useful or productive,” which means the lyrics fit perfectly.

Get “Deadwood” here, and listen below. Is Toni back? Sound off in the comments
