Toni Braxton is a Contemporary R&B and House act. Their catalogue also touches Rhythm and blues. Their sound grew out of James Newman, Shanice, Rodney Jerkins, Joe Sample and Lucas. Those roots explain a lot about how Toni Braxton arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Mary J. Blige, Destiny's Child, Kelly Price, En Vogue and Kelly Rowland, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into GFOTY, Dinah Jane, Stacie Orrico, Alaska Thunderfuck 5000 and My All, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 70 connections around Toni Braxton, reaching back through James Newman and forward to GFOTY.
