I hate that everyone tries to stick Brandy into the R&B category. Sure, her first two albums were mostly R&B but her music has had pop elements as well.

I'm a big Brandy fan, and I prefer her more pop influenced songs. It has nothing to do with trying to get her a quick hit. I prefer Brandy doing more pop and that's just my personal opinion. I def don't agree with her doing 100% pop, but I like her songs that heavy pop elements.

If she does a track with Nicki Minaj...that's her decision, but it has nothing to do with her trying to score a hit. Nicki Minaj is relevant right now, so speaking of what will possibly be in two years is irrelevant at the moment. I'm not the biggest Nicki Minaj fan, but some of her stuff is very catchy.
