The album debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 chart, with first-week sales of 114,000. Tamar Braxton talking to MalcolmMusic about the commercial performance of Love and War I feel like it was only a couple thousands between us, and really, honestly she has like 10 million followers, I have like 800.000 followers and that speaks volumes, my audience is not as big as Ariana's I feel like the attention that Love and War has gotten so far, was the right attention and no one is looking at the charts, after that my album outsold her for three weeks
