First Listen: TONI BRAXTON & BABYFACE – ‘HURT YOU’

Toni Braxton’s hiatus from music is officially over. The Grammy-winning singer, who had previously said she was retiring from the industry, returns with “Hurt You,” a collaboration with Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds.

The tender love ballad marks the first single off their joint album Love, Marriage, Divorce, due Dec. 3 on Motown Records.

The R&B diva and legendary producer team up on the smoldering duet, which finds Toni in top form. “God knows I never meant to hurt you/ I never meant to break your heart,” they sing on the chorus.
