    Whitney touched many of us so deeply with’her beautiful voice & Music

    I am getting tired of this christina stan. Realy?, do u have to force her down our throat like this. Its irritating. If she will be on the same label ad xtina so what? Who cares. I m indifferent about xtina she is talented tho i am not a huge fan but u trying to campaign for her on other artist posts is pathetic. Plizzz cool it.
    Anyway, brandy did a good job.

    Who cares? What’s ur pb, what crawled up yr ass? I asked a simple question on the previous post, u could have just given a simple answer instead of starting all this drama. Lonely much?

    Oh and by the way, I’m not a stan, given that a stan percieves its idol as being flawless, but I do love my faves.

  10. YoursTruly March 3, 2012

    Um what is Brandy wearing is that a leotard?!

  11. Catepillar-man March 3, 2012

    Hahaha you can’t even hear Brandy

  12. BrealK March 3, 2012

    Brandy need to put on some clothes. These singers need to stop being half dress if they want there vocals/performance to be the center of attention. This look is tacky.

  13. truthis March 3, 2012

    that outfit is ugly….brandy girl hope this not the direction your fashion going this era!!! dont wait til your 33 to take your clothes off child!!!!

  14. 4ever March 3, 2012

    Brandy So happy to see you!! Its Coming and I know you going to go Hard!!

    On The other Hand if this was beyonce wearing that yaw would all be Hype…. Fall the flip back!! F***

  15. LouLou March 3, 2012

    The crowd was so loud! You can’t even hear her. I do not like the outfit choice at all. Leave that to the girls that can’t sing Brandy.

  16. Girrrl March 3, 2012

    Just like I said in the last post, somber Brandy needs to SAT down! I am going to buy Brandy’s album no matter when it comes out but I’m already over it. She needs to put some clothes on unless she is going to be dancing, She also needs to perform some new material and not that dumb song she did with Monica.

  17. Nick March 3, 2012

    I love love love brandy & it still hurts me thinking of Whitney

  18. vince March 3, 2012

    Hm I don’t get why this fansite is so obsessed with her. She’s good but she’s way too commercial. She’s got a good voice though but compared to all the Whitney/Mariahs or any Adele or wver she just seems SO commercial. She needs to “go back to basics” as christina would put it lol

  19. @antertain March 3, 2012

    Love the all she is giving.

    Keep it up Bran

  20. kiddontplay March 3, 2012

  21. Jessica March 3, 2012

    Aww these haters are hurting that Brandy is coming back and snatching wigs along with Monica, Lol!!! They are mad that there fav aka Rihanna and wack Nicki can’t perform s*** live!! Lol!!! Rihanna and Nicki have to do gimmicks to try to stay in the game and they are failing while Brandy and Monica been in the game for 17+ years, so who’s mad?? Lol!! Get used to it Brandy and Monica are here to stay and if they do duets together, stay mad because they are paid divas and you haters are not- sitting in your parents basement! Lol!!!

  22. voneeluv March 3, 2012

    why every performance she sound so low you can hardly hear her they need to turn her mic all the way up the music down. thought she would have sung at whitney song though. i know everyone can’t do whitney but thought she would take shot being they were close.

  23. NikkiIsChillin March 3, 2012

    Awwh, beautiflul tribute to Whitney from Brandy. Blessings.

  24. JP March 3, 2012

    B-Rocka 2012! Love me some Brandy!!!

    2-11 lets get’em!

  25. Millhouse March 3, 2012

    S** SELLS BRANDY = I LOVE IT!!!! dont let these other b****** outshine you. You better sell that s** with your beautiful self. Sometimes you need to dress a certain way to get people to pay attention…. and once you got they attention, dats when you s*** on them wit some FIYAH ass vocals… I like the direction Brandy is going in… KEEP IT UP SISTER, you will be right back at the top where you belong…

  26. Millhouse March 3, 2012

    IDK what yall talking bout. I heard Brandy perfectly fine. i thik yall need to upgrade yall computers or something…. She sang her ass off… she dont hit the highest notes but you feel her soul…. and she dont have a pitch problem like a lot of our other singers… she sounded just like the record…. no autotune needed… i like that she is feeling her songs more cuz back in the day she used to just stad there… I really hope she performs at the BET awards this year…. That would be so hot to have BRANDY, MONICA, BEYONCE, & RIHANNA all perform at the BET awards this year…. Plus you know they gona pull out some saaangers for the Whitney HOuston tribute…. BET Awards might be worth watching this year if they get their line up on point…

    @TGJ – can you do a post where you have people vote on who they want to see perform at the BET Awards this year? For some reason they always get it wrong, by having too many rappers and no singers, or just a bunch of plain ol boring performances….. I’m sure Stephen Hill be poppin up on this site sometimes, and if not we’ll tweet him a link to the post….

    Brandy is one of the most phenomenal vocalist of all time. No one can do what she does with her voice. That tone is signature and low, but her runs and backgrounds are iconic. Honestly, just being real, although her sales have reflected otherwise, she has consistently produced great material.. album after album. People just weren’t in the know.. The music has NOT been an issue for Brandy.. She marketing and promotion, (and her lack of touring) is what hurt her sales. She’s always gave quality material.

  28. Colin March 4, 2012

    LOOOVE BRAN! And the pic is a BEAUTIFUL representation of her! Thanks for getting it right, TGJ! HOWEVER, why did you select the lowest quality vid from YouTube to post??!!!

    People the prob is NOT that Bran didnt sing loud enuf to be heard…the prob is TGJ seemingly snatched the 1st vid they could find on youtube…which happens to be amateur and of very poor sound quality. There are better QUALITY/HD vids of this performance on YouTube…along with her STELLAR performance of What About US, etc. from the same night. Look them up! Bran is a VOCAL BEAST!! And she looked AMAAAAAAAAZING head to toe!
