Tamar also adds a Broadway debut in Motown, the Musical (Diana Ross u/s, Esther Gordy, Gladys Knight, Gladys Horton, Lula) to her lengthy resume. Tamar has toured with Tyler Perry's Madea Gets a Job prior to touring with Madea’s Big Happy Family, Laugh to Keep from Crying, The Marriage Counselor, and A Madea Christmas; Lions Gate productions set to home DVD rentals.

A graduate of University of Southern California’s Thornton School of Music with a Bachelor in Music Business, Tamar was honored as a Presidential Scholar in the Arts while attending Houston's High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, where Tamar also received 3 Gold medals in the NAACP ACT-SO competition. In 2010, Tamar initiated and created Syren Music Group, LLC: a music entertainment company that specializes in the advancement of independent music and live entertainment which was funded through personal finances acquired while on tour and starring in Tyler Perry’s stage-play The Marriage Counselor as the only nuanced lead (New York Times).

Through the creation of Syren Music Group, LLC Tamar launched two independent albums My Name is Tamar (3/24/11) and I Am the Storm (9/30/16), whereas the former album garnered sales from Japan, Belgium, Barcelona, the United Kingdom, Canada, the Netherlands and the United States with additional article write-ups from Glamour magazine, VIBE magazine, the New York Times, US Weekly, Sophisticate's Black Hair and the Vegas Tribune, with complementing appearances on Great Day Houston, Saturday Night Live, Good Morning America, and the BET Awards.

During SuperBowl LI, Tamar successfully re-introduced her philanthropic and educational initiative: the “College, Career, and Empowerment Summit.” This monumental achievement was an inspiration to Houston’s youth about the importance of attaining a higher education and was successful through the partnership with Houston Community College and Stewart Cadillac (just to name a few).
