In 2022, Minaj revealed that she wanted the “All the Way Home” songstress and her sister to contribute to her next project. During an Instagram Live session, she shared, “Y’all know I love Toni Braxton, and I also love Tamar. That’s a great idea. Their voices together, what do you guys think about that? Go and ask Toni and Tamar if they could both sing on my album.”
Subsequently, Tamar wrote on her Instagram Story, “Send me the track, sis! I got [you, Nicki Minaj].”
In 2021, Minaj also teased an unreleased song that featured Brandy, Tamar, and Keke Wyatt. The caption read, “Thank you ladies so much. This is just a lil’ taste. I might share more with the fans as more vocals come in. These were the three [people] that initially came to my mind, so this is so dope.”
