    K. Michelle and Tamar Braxton’s on-again, off-again issues with one another were on-again this weekend after the “Tennessee” songstress called out the Braxton sister for what she believed were subliminal shots thrown her way during a recent interview.

    The Calling All Lovers singer appeared on the 100th episode of the We Sound Crazy podcast last week, where she was asked her thoughts on Beyoncé’s COWBOY CARTER album and Black artists within the country music space

    “I think that Black country is so necessary. I’m so happy that people with talent, who can actually sing country music that are Black people, are finally getting the recognition they deserve,” Braxton, 47, began. “I just really appreciate Beyoncé for opening the door for all the other Black artists that have rode that wave behind the floodgates.”

    She then went on to compliment three Black country artists , though she couldn’t recall their names, before adding, “because there was some who should not have been singing country Black music that was awful, and it was concerning for me. I’m not trying to be funny, it just didn’t sound good. And you got to make sure, if you’re going to step into a new genre of music and represent for us, you gotta represent, it gotta be right.”

    Check out Tamar’s statement below.

    Considering their past tension and K. Michelle’s years-long pursuit of country music, many, including the “Country Love Song” artist, assumed Braxton’s remarks were about her.

    “Imagine you keep playing with someone who’s minding they business, then BOOM. They sick of you. One tweet and screenshot and it’s over 4ya,” K. Michelle, 42, tweeted Sunday (April 28). “I don’t pull stunts Raggedy Ann, I pull cards.”

    She then tweeted “Loud Cackling hyena” before sharing a photo of a muppet, an insult she used to hurl at Braxton regularly during the peak of their feuding in the mid 2010s.

    After fans began to tag both ladies within the thread, Tamar replied to a follower who came to her defense, explaining that she was not referring to the former reality star.

    “@TamarBraxtonHer’s not talking about @kmichelle. We’ve been down that road before, and I’m sure neither wants to revisit that,” wrote the fan, with Braxton adding, “I absolutely was not!! I said a FEW artists! I paid homage to Beyonce 4bringing positive attention to country music. There are people who i don’t address n don’t mention/shade to keep mess away… where was all this chatter when my song went #1. I mind my business and go to work.”

    Braxton went on to reply directly to Michelle, “I wasn’t speaking about you. I would have said your name. I was speaking of country “black” music that I have heard before that I didn’t enjoy. I wish you the best on all your future endeavors. I only want to beef with the devil. The End.”

    While Braxton attempted to move on from the tense moment, K. Michelle took to TNT ‘s comment section to call out the “Notice Me” singer for throwing stones, and then hiding her hands.

    “Y’all know I wouldn’t be saying anything. She knows exactly what she’s doing,” Michelle began. “She’s been going on for months now , well years, she’s just very hurt acting out . It has to stop TODAY.”

    The Southern songstress added of Braxton, “She continues to bring me up in some way, throw her shade, then play victim. I’m just not going to keep playing with her. It’s played out, but she WILL stop. I can overlook negativity all day but don’t keep poking at me even at shows.”

    After adding that she has information on Braxton the singer would like to keep under wraps, she continued, “There’s no reason for you to continue subs and jabs. It’s like you have to be seen even if it’s shading and negativity. Bitter Betty. Live in your talent, not in your drama. Lesson I had 2 learn and worked out 4me. I have a right to defend and be sick of your sh*t.”

    “I finally say in front of everyone LEAVE ME ALONE or else. I stand on that, you should try it. Your 9 whole years older than me, you should set an example of some sort. Now go play victim.”

    The back-and-forth comes weeks after K. Michelle was sent a bouquet of flowers from Beyoncé , wishing her the best on her upcoming country release.
