I really think that Brandy is being misunderstood. She worked with Darkchild (Rodney Jerkins). They have a past and considering that their sound was drastically different in comparison to her previous projects it's plausible that she may feel that their chemistry was off due to his lack of intrest in making her album. Brandy's music on "Human" wasn't well rounded and though the album contained songs with plenty of depth and inspiring messages the sound was missing her usual grit and innovative style. During that time Darkchild worked with several artist that year (Janet - Feedback , Pussycat Dolls - When I grow up, just to name a few) that seem to boast the melodically contagious formula he uses in collaborating with Brandy. I just believe that Brandy felt as if she was being slighted. She have developed a strong working relationship with Darkchild and I think anyone would feel how she does if they feel that the energy in their creative work wasn't a priority.

Some of you speak of how disappointed you are with Brandy talking numbers, when that's the name of the game. There has to be some level of success in order to see an artist continue to make albums and see them evolve. It's not that she has to compromise who she is as an artist, she has to fight to remain relevant! It's not like she said she wanted to sell 3 million(she said platnium folks - she wants to produce albums that generate sells to keep the label happy). I swear some of you don't think! I'm sure next week some of you will be giving us a rundown of some other artist on a different post stats! Don't act like it won't happen. Don't trip when you see me do it either - because I'm telling you now, that I will.

Anyway, what you want to do is marry art and financial gain! Brandy has always done this and there's nothing wrong with this being what you set out to do!
