The Cash Money and No Limit Verzuz at ComplexCon delivered plenty of surprises — but none had social media buzzing quite like Tamar Braxton and Birdman’s onstage moment. The event, which took place Saturday night (October 25), featured appearances from New Orleans legends and nostalgic performances, but it was Toni Braxton’s absence and Tamar’s presence alongside Birdman that stole the spotlight.
Birdman, who has had an on-and-off relationship with Toni Braxton for years, appeared onstage without her by his side. Instead, fans were stunned to see her sister Tamar step in, even playfully wiping sweat from the Cash Money CEO’s head during the set. While the moment seemed lighthearted, the internet immediately began dissecting the optics — especially given the Braxton sisters’ well-documented history of sibling tension.
Many fans questioned Tamar’s decision to attend, calling it “awkward” and “messy,” considering her sister’s romantic ties to Birdman. But Tamar didn’t hesitate to respond. After a fan on X asked why she was onstage with her sister’s man, she clapped back directly:
“Cause she couldn’t be here and she love her husband so ima hold it down for HER AND MY BROTHER!!!! TF!!??”

Her confident response didn’t stop the conversation — but it did make her stance clear. Despite fans’ mixed reactions, Tamar made it known she was there out of love and loyalty to both Toni and Birdman.
The Verzuz event itself carried other major highlights, including the release of The No Limit 5K Mix: Lost Tapes, Master P’s surprise album featuring 25 unreleased tracks alongside a roster of hip-hop heavyweights. While fans appreciated the nostalgic energy of the night, the unexpected family dynamic between the Braxtons and Birdman added an extra layer of intrigue.
Whether this moment signifies closer ties between Toni, Tamar, and Birdman remains to be seen — but one thing’s certain: the drama didn’t stop the show from being one of the most talked-about Verzuz events in recent memory.
