brandy seriously as much as you want this album and your self to be successful this time around please don't look to other artist as an example. look in yourself for that added inspiration. i no it will be hard because of the success of some of the artist that you might look up to but don't strive to get their success but the kind that will came from your doings, your ideas, your team. don't rush-even through i would love some new music from you-be 100% sure and certain of the people that will be surrounding you as your strive to succeed your goal for this album. if you want to go back to your early r&b era go there and if you want to incorporate your new passion(rap) do it. bring something new to the industry, not something recycled. i have faith in you whole-heartedly b-rocka. GO FOR IT. DON'T HOLD BACK AT ALL BABY! 2012 IS YOUR YEAR! BELIEVE IT")
