Tank Rethinking Retirement After Seeing Babyface in Action

R&B mainstay Tank recently said he was retiring his recording career, but after soaking up Babyface’s star-studded album release party … he’s beginning to rethink that decision!!!

TMZ Hip Hop pressed Tank about throwing in the towel during ‘Face’s “Girls Night Out” shindig, and he sheepishly admitted seeing the legend pull off a new album didn’t make him feel legit.

In fact, Tank credits BF’s ‘89 album “Tender Lover” for giving him his formal introduction to the world of song … especially since being a church kid made it impossible for him to consume secular music at the time.

Tank says he was in awe of the room — highlighted by the presence of Chris Tucker, Jordin Sparks and Kim Kardashian — and gained a newfound inspiration from the night alone.

His 10th album “R&B Money” dropped back in August, and while he claimed it would be his last … Tank’s fans will likely lean into what he told us.
