K. Michelle Goes In on Tamar Braxton Over a Comment She Made About ‘LHHH’ Checks

The feud between K. Michelle and Tamar Braxton seemed to be never-ending after the Memphis singer slammed Braxton for speaking out about “Love and Hip Hop“‘s payout.

K. Michelle never holds back in speaking her mind, and she had more than a few words for the “Let Me Know” singer on Monday.

K. Michelle blasted Tamar after the “Love and War” singer seemingly shaded the “LHHH” franchise during a conversation involving “Braxton Family Values.” Tamar got into a back-in-forth with a fan who accused the star of being mad because Traci Braxton decided to film the family’s reality show without the sisters. The fan wrote, “They had no problem leaving Traci when they signed their record deal and she got pregnant!” Another added, “Say it again for her sisters in the back. Traci like F’ dat imma get my coinz.”

Tamar chimed into the conversation and responded, “Ain’t no coin tho!! She is getting LESS than lahh!! Facts BASICALLY NOTHING!”

Nevertheless, K. Michelle got word of Tamar’s comment and did not take it too lightly. The “Crazy Like You” artist slammed the star for her ‘LHHH’ money remarks

“That ‘Tae Muppet’ talking about what we make on ‘Love and Hip Hop’… Girl you ain’t paying your coins either. … You getting kicked out of your house, you on getting too much on WE,” K. Michele said during an Instagram Live video.

Fans chimed in under the comments and had slightly mixed reactions.

“But you’ve been on 3 different love and hip hop’s .. sit down 🙄,” one person wrote.

Another added, “Naw y’all making yourself look bad,Tamar can’t even treat her sister decent,but y’all worried bout. Y’all Look bad.”

One fan wrote, “CTFU!🤣..Kimberly always gonna keep it 💯!.. Love her.”

K. Michelle and Tamar’s feud began after season 1 of “Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta” when K. Michelle confessed to Rasheeda Frost that her former boyfriend and music producer Mickey “Memphitz” Wright physically abused her. Rasheeda refused to believe K. Michelle and accused her of lying. Tamar then inserted herself into Frost’s and K. Michelle’s beef and sided with Frost. K. Michelle became angry and accused both women of “hating.”

Tamar publicly apologized to K. Michelle in 2015 after they performed together at the BET Awards.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
