Oh Tamar, baby - if that really is the new cover, that's a damn shame. Looks like the cover of any random issue of "Swank" magazine, or "HoneyJuggs" or some shit. Yuck yuck yuck, and all of a sudden I'm finding her face less beautiful (in that shot) - hmmm. Disappointed. (Although I doubt she herself would have much of a say what they use.)

Wonder how the elders of Prince's church (or sect or whatever the JWs prefer to be called) feel about the new porno shot.

I have to agree. Looks like she's lubing up for some action... flowing milk is a great poetical device to remind you of the riches of the earth, but it doesn't work when you take it so literally - it just looks kind of gross, "Uggh! I've got milk over my hand! It'll stink for weeks! The honey's okay though... Arggh, a swarm of bees! Leg it!"

Tangerine17 said:

That is hideous. That's one of theose legendary worst album covers in waiting - that's if it wasn't destined to sell 10,000 copies to hardcore Prince fans and disappear from history.

Tangerine17 said:

I'm thinking Ohio Players.

I did see her live and liked what I heard so I'm gonna buy the album and judge for myself.

AndreC said:

oh my.

Prince needs his head examined.

Tangerine17 said:

Ew!

This would be an OP cover knock off, except for it isn't remotely sexy!

I'll say it again: That shit is GROSS! (c) Black Bush

yes I have. third person back from the stage in Houston like i said she HAS A BEAUTIFUL voice, but it is not very strong, and i base this opinion both off of my live experience as well as the cd experience.

Thanks for the laugh.

AndreC said:

Her facial expression isn't helping matters.
It looks as if she is disgusted herself as if she's saying
hurry up and take this picture.

God, that song is a total duff. Not Carmen Electra bad, but at least that crap was so bad it was funny. This is just boring. He really has got to stop chasing the idea of radio cred.

She blew the roof off in Chicago.

You know it's not that bad.
I've seen worse. Let's see what's inside
the package.

RosesRred said:

I know. As soon as I posted that I felt sort of bad...kinda mean. Sorry, Tamar, I'm sure your record release party will be nothing like Carrie's prom!

Oh come on guys, the girl hasn´t even released her album yet, obviously had some obstacles in her way, and y´all are dissing her for her album cover, her looks and her rapping.

Sure , the cover DOES look a bit like "Honey" by the mighty Ohio Players but maybe that´s done on purpose, you all know that Prince is a huge fan of them.

Maybe he isn´t a strict vegan anymore ?

I like Tamar´s voice, and she seems to inspire him . What they did on SNL and the Brit Awards was cool and energetic, and this time he seems to continue and finish what he started with Nona Gaye....their music reminds me of that era, the songs have a similar breezy, light and airy atmosphere and sound quite positive.


Let´s wait and see how the album will sound...up to now I kinda like her, plus she looks really beautiful.

The Honey ref is obvious...at least that's what I thought but that's not the problem..it's a good thing. People are commenting on the "milk hand". It's really really not pretty.

This is one way to go, though probably not for Tamar but at least the milk looks like milk.

If both hands were honey it could work...the color alone would be improved.
Either that or pour the milk on.

it sounds ok....I dont feel it wil be a big single or anything. beautiful Loved and Blessed I like more.

I like the face shot, but the arms dont do it 4 me. I liked the insert in the 3121 booklet or the new pic she got on her site is nice too.

I like this though for maybe an inside spread.

Looks like the Kelis "Tasty" also. Maybe the same designer?

GangstaFam said:

She tore it up in Miami too.

YUCK.

chewymusic said:

I don't think she looks attractive in this pic. Her mouth is just strange and her whole face has a 'what the hell am I doin?' expression.

Something about her teeth...and the milk arm.

OMG. H & S has to be sampling en Vogue's Hold On. If you removed her vocals, I swear you could karoake Hold On to it. (Digression--my friends and I lip synched to en Vogue for our After-Prom Party. We totally had it going on, we were all wearing these red 20s inspired dresses and were rockin it, but b/c my HS sucked we were booed off stage. ) Does anyone know if the Twinz are singing back up on any of Tamar's album?


Not feelin' the new cover AT ALL. The original one was much more beautiful. The milk arm is nasty. I even think the milk mustaches in Got Milk? campaigns look gross. Milk just does not photograph well. (that's a joke btw, I know it's not *really* milk.)

They should've just given her a Milk Mustache.

Everything will be okay.
