There have been murmurings for sometime now about Brandy starring in her own reality show. As it turns out, the Grammy Award winning singer will be joining her brother Ray J, as well as their mother and father – Sonja and Willie Norwood, in a new VH1 reality show. Check out the synoposis below (spotted over at our good friend’s Concrete Loop):
Siblings Brandy and Ray J Norwood are famous for their incredible vocal talent on the stage and screen. But they wouldn’t be anywhere without the support and guidance of their parents – entertainment manager and mom, Sonja and talented musical father, Willie Norwood. Viewers will get a first hand glimpse into the lives of the Norwood family unit and their family business – Rn’B Productions. Run by Sonja, Rn’B Productions features an impressive roster of musical artists including Brandy, Ray J and their father Willie, who also serves as the company’s vocal coach. But with Sonja ready to take a step down, Brandy and Ray J will have to fill her shoes quickly all the while taking the family business to the next level. Will they have what it takes to continue to stay in the limelight while growing an entertainment empire?
The reality route seems to be the way to go for many an artist these days. Let’s just hope the show, which debuts April 11th at 9pm, is more in the vein of Monica’s or Fantasia’s, than any of Ray J’s VH1 outings.
R&B siblings Brandy and Ray J were spotted celebrated Ray J’s 29th birthday at Wonderland nightclub recently. As reported earlier, the duo are currently developing two shows via their new company, R&B Productions. Peep more pic below (courtesy of NecoleBitchie):
In a recent interview with Vlad-TV, R&B crooner Ray J elaborated on the decline of his sister Brandy’s singing career. Ray noted that his sister is currently waiting on the right deal from a label that will grant her freedom in her career for the right payment. The singer went further to divulge that he is collaborating with Brandy to develop two new shows through their new production company, R&B Productions.
It goes without saying that Brandy is one of the most talent and technically skilled singer sin the game right now. Her rare vocals are easily distinguishable amongst the filth that has been clogging the airwaves in recent years. However, although I understand that she is trying to ‘get hers’ by waiting on the right cheque, the current industry has become increasingly competitive with little room for complacency. Regardless of how big her career used to be, the fact remains that her last album was commercially unsuccessful and many labels will be uncertain about how to handle her.
Hopefully she is able to work something out soon because after listening to her amazing vocals on the ‘Human‘ LP, (especially ‘ A Capella/Something’s Missing’) I felt insulted the next time I heard a certain singer chant “eh eh eh” on the radio.
The Soul Train Awards were held at the World Congress Centre in Atlanta, Georgia. It’s great to see that this show is still going strong after all these years. Peep some of the excitement below:
Diva Toni Braxton and Trey Songz a performance of their new song, ‘Yesterday’. I hope Trey had 911 on speed dial just in case Toni’s husband came up on stage lol!
Actress Taraji P. Henson, who hosted the show with actor Terrence Howard, did an amazing Diana Ross impersonation.
Songstress Chrisette Michelle is working that hair style for all its worth.
Singers Keri Hilson and Monica share a moment backstage. They both look like they could be fashion models!
Fantasia looked stunning while walking the red carpet.
R&B singer Ray J decided to go old school with his outfit for the night.
Finally, we have the legendary Chaka Khan and singer Musiq Soulchild who both looked great.
Whitney Houston and Ray J were snapped getting pretty ‘close’ when leaving the Villa Lounge in Los Angeles, California this past weekend. This has, is and will continue to be the random-est of pairings IMO. Each to their own, I guess…
What do you think of the pics?
Terrible. Whoever gave him the ‘ok’ to do this obviously doesn’t care for him that much, as that was painful – just as expected. Ray J’s voice is distinctly average at best, so performing such a weighty song made no sense at all. Pitchy, strained and an overall mess. SMH…
What do you think of the performance?
Whitney Houston and rumored boyfriend Ray stepped out together for the second time this week, heightening speculation that they are, indeed, a couple. The pair posed for pictures while sitting front-row centre at the Hopkins vs. Calzaghe boxing match in Las Vegas, Nevada last night. While, I’ll reserve my judgement on them dating, it’s great to see Whitney looking happy and healthy. Tidbit: Whitney’s daughter Bobbi Kristina also accompanied her mother.Any thoughts?
