Brandy may be The Vocal Bible, but is clearly is not shy to celebrate the talent of other prolific singers.
Case, point, her impromptu rendition of Beyonce‘s 2011 hit ‘1+1’.
The songstress/actress saluted her fellow R&B game-changer while preparing for her Musicalize UK gig recently, soaring with a take on the ‘4’ cut that is easily a must-see.
Check it out after the jump…
Glory!
Ms. Norwood not only took it to church, she was preaching from the pulpit!
Surely, we’re not alone in salivating for a duet between the Bran and Bey?

B**** Shutup she could of done whatever f****** song and she would’ve still sound better than this.
http://youtu.be/MKt45NY5n2U
nothing special.
Are you speaking of Katy Perry’s live performances if so I agree!!!!!!!!!
Death.
She was just being casual, she loves Beyonce.
Shoulda sung body party boo stop singing Beyonce and R**** songs.
Why are you sooooo negative all the time???? Please get help!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im a b**** 🙂
No one is going to cover Local Party. Just came out this year and is already forgotten by 99% of the general public. Not to mention it still isn’t gold yet.
B**** its been gold for a while now do your f****** RESEARCH d***!
Kii it finally went gold after 8 months? With all that payola and about 20 performances? And her album already fell out of the Billboard 200? And she still can’t sell out a Taco Bell? A joke.
You should be glad she didn’t. She would’ve ate, chewed and shat all over Ciaras version. Brandy actually has range.
Lies^^
Brandy’s range is 3 octaves. F*** what haters think. The girl has proven she can sang. F*** a range. Her runs are so agile and on point. Go Brandy.
She’s already covered “Diamonds” and death at Brandy covering a Ci error song out of the blue. Keep dreaming. LOL.
^ the fact that she has , though
U tight bc she doesn’t cover Applause as it nose dives ? 😆
BRAN IS CCRAZY >>>>>>>>>>>>.. LMFAO
The haters coming in 1 2 3…………
YOU BETTER BOW DOWN AND SING THE GOSPEL SONG THAT IS 1+1
Don’t come for Brandy like that.
Brandy the vocal bible? Lmao since when? B**** was struggling to hit those notes.
Lol see i didn’t wanna say anything but.. i see no lies.
FOOL SHE WAS PLAYING AROUND WITH THE NOTES THATS ALL. 🙂
B**** u always dragging somebody but forget who u Stan for. Kii have a seat. @valerie (barb)
One video of her struggling. Big whoop. She is clearly a perfectionist and was just playing with the sound to see what run she liked the most. Have u seen her LIVE performances? She never struggles. Her voice is the truth of a lot of r&b singers these days. Whitney Houston obviously agreed. That’s y they worked together and were so close.
Everybody loves Beyonce I LOVE IT
This “vocal bible” could never do a beyonce song justice.
B**** STOP REACHING FOR REAL.
Its the truth deal & watch who your calling a b**** f-a-g-g-o-t!!
B**** GET A F****** LIFE!!!!!!!!!!
But how many songs can nicki do justice? She can’t even do her own songs justice. #death
well, en contraire, she actually KILLED Beyonce onl this 40 second song, you must not know who Brandy is damn shame
Aw I love Brandy. This is not really a must see though I thought it was going to be serious.
I so agree… this post is so unneccessary! I like Brandy but I just don’t get why people call her “the vocal bible” I know my ears aint playing tricks on me… she’s just okay to me; always have been. Her fans overly exaggerate her way too much till it aint even funny… thiers nuthin special or spectacular about her voice.
just stop with the shade right there, Brandy is better than your favorite singer , she isn’t just OK, stop being ignorant you seem foolish
brandy is just having fun yall need to chill acting like she sung it on stage #stop
Sing it Bran! She needs to do some covers and connect with fans online better that way! Or some acoustic versions of her own songs would be good…
Beyonce. Ha impact. She got the R&B veterans covering her songs and posting on Youtube for views.
Brandy has also sang a Rihanna song, I guess Rihanna has that much influence too huh?
Why is this a MUST SEE? Lol.. Grape juice will gas these flop ass h*** up in a minute.. Just stop.
Idiot commenters who can’t take fun for what it is. Ya’ll hateful folks need to take a gun to the head. she was having fun while giving props to another great artist. Brandy is great and she is the vocal bible. When you find another artist that says the DIDN’T STUDY to brandy , tell the world. I think you will have a hard time doing that. Search! u will find greats giving brandy props. Stop putting one down to lift another. Its entertainment, not a competition. F****** idiots. It’s people like u that aren’t inclusive. is y the world is in the shape it’s in now. Get ur lives together.
If 17mil WW off 1 album brandy is a FLOP overall.. CH!
she has sold over 30mil records (same as Rihanna)
with LESS albums !
A mess.
She was messing around playing with the notes. Stans of people who can barely hold a note have no room to talk about the Vocal Bible.
PREACH FELLOW STARZ. LMFAO
Wouldn’t just came out imply that it came out shorter than 8 months ago. STFU idiot and stop contradicting yourself.
1st of all she’s just playing. Secondly, SHE didn’t post this. Lastly, she still SLAYED!!!!
I kinda wish she didn’t do it because certain fanbases have deep insecurities and probably didn’t even hit play.
PREACH >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
YAAAASSSSSSSS. Queen Brandy singing King B song
lol you mean King Brandy singing Princess Beyonce’s song, gotcha
the h** can’t sing.
I Would Love To Hear A Beyonce & Brandy Collaboration!
If They Were To Collaborate, I Would Like It To Be Similar To “Love A Woman” By Mary J. & Bey.
These brandy stans are so annoying. she sounded a mess… the end.
A smelly Nowhereland stan critiquing Brandy’s vocals? B****, your fave got outperformed by keri hilson. Keri f****** hilson, b****. Your comment is null and VOIDED. Sit.
Most overrated vocalist on earth such basicness comes from this girl.
Her voice…. i mean I dont see how anyone can deny her talent. I actual wish she was being serious and did a cover. She KILT Diamonds…. Im sure she woulda kilt this song too
i hope the haters realised she was actually singing it in a higher key than Beyonce, i love hey naturally brandy can just sing out like that it’s effortless shes amazing!
*sighs*…know brandy vying for a little Attention these days and by singing a Beyonce song might get peeps to talking a bit..LOL but Sam this DEF not a must seee!!!!!
wasnt bad but great or good it definitely was not!!
Almost getting Sad seeing a vet in the game posting youtube clips singing current popular artists songs for hits or new fans..
Ur doin too much. Singing is her profession and she can do it whenever she feels like it cuz she’s been doing it for years. Many singers sing acapella on the spot. so what?? Take a seat and quit hating.
Hold on b****, what’s monica doing with her career? How is she advancing these days, h***? What is she doing besides breastfeeding and posting photos on instgram? Oh right, nothing.
B****, begone!
I don’t call her basic brandy for nothing.
First of all, Brandy is a helluva good vocalist and one of the best singers of this generation along with Beyonce. Her version of Somewhere over the rainbow is sickening. I don’t care if it was recorded in the bathroom! Yess, Brandy. Her vocals give me ultimate life.
Thats a f****** lie Xtina is the best vocalist of our generation Beyonce and especially brandy dont even come close b**** made f**.
I agree… many people mix Bey’s phenomenal entertainment ability with being a spectacular vocalist. Bey can sing but she doesn’t neccessary have the best tone; she’s not a Whitney nor is Brandy. When it comes to vocal talent Xtina does take the cake 4 this generation… she has the tone and control
@TheTruth thank you baby, you defiantly are the truth! Mwaaah!!
You lost me at COMPLETLEY at control. Christina has one of the worst singing techniques known to mankind. She has to strain real hard to hit notes and her lack of control is one of her biggest weaknesses. Beyoncé has excellent control, no delusion but she has one of the best techniques. (Tone is personal opinion).
@Loyalty please keep your f****** mouth shut .. Christina is known for her amazing soulful vocals while Beyonce known for shaking her ass.. Oooop
Hmm no sorry sweets. Beyoncé is known as one of the best performers of the generation. Who is much more quoted and influential than Xtina. You will deal.
Yet the media always praises xtina right you A*** H** are to delusional for me.
I cant remember the last time I saw Christina in the media. Singers, public all quote Beyoncé more though honey. People of all ages want to be like her. I barely hear anyone talk of Chrissy now. #SorryNotSorry.
@MARCUS, Yes “Love A Woman” would be the perfect collaboration. I think they should really tried and make that happen.
“Xtina is the best vocalist of our generation”? Her struggling says otherwise sweetie. A great vocalist doesn’t scream, strain, constantly raise their larynx to sing high notes, sing with a closed throat, abuse expression, and lack musicianship (etc.). She’s literally worse than most amateurs, that’ how bad she is.
One of my other favs!! It’s NO secret that Brandy stans for Beyonce!! 😉 😉
Its no secret that both are basic.
Its definitely NOT a secret that your fave is a FLOP! 😉 SHE’S DONE!
A flop is what you call brandy alien m***** looking ass lmao… Not secret that brandy performs for crowds of 40s lmao
Does anyone even want to see STRAINtina perform though?? Kii
PigTINA IS DONNNNNNNE…ACCEPT IT AND GET OVER IT!!! KIIIII
Xtina is a legend and icon cant say the same for those two black h*** you stan for lmao. F*** outta here go get my drink slavehive lololol
LOOOL PIGTINA IS A LEGEND AND BEYONCE IS NOT???? WHERE IS HER TOUR??? WHAT HAPPEWED TO THE SELLS OF HER LAST TWO FLOP ALBUMS?? WHY DID SHE DESTROY THE NATIONAL ANTHEM SO EFFORTLESSLY?? THE DELUSION IS REAL
*HANDS YOU A GLASS OF BLEACH* DRINK UP! KIII
Why does Xtina hold the title of voice of our generation and Beyonce doesn’t please explain cotton picker kiiii
LOOL YALL STILL HOLDING IN TO THAT OLD ASS RECEIPT!! BEYONCE IS THE PERFORMER OF OUR GENERATION, HAS 17 GRAMYS AND OVERALL MORE RESPECTED THAN STRAINtina!
Why isnt “THE VOICE OF OUR GENERATION” able to sell albums and remain relevant, but Beyonce can? Explain that trailer park trash! Kiiiii
“Why does Xtina hold the title of voice of our generation”? Because Justin Timberlake( who’s already a s***** vocalist himself) coined that term. Then the retarded straintina stans such as yourself spread that b******* like there was no tomorrow. The title is null and void because it was created and spread by musically retarded people like yourself.
A mild r***** can see that Brandy did not post the video. With that, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see that she didn’t post this for attn. This goes back to the fact that she didn’t even post this video. There’s a way to shut idiots down every time they open their mouth bc they always say something stupid/ignorant.
Breaynodnyce would RUN THE WORLD! That duet would give me so much life!
This is too cute. Beyonces impact has been very prevalent of late, I can see why they’re mad.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlpPsQaH2GQ&feature=player_embedded
This is too cute and they danced to my FAVE SONG!
Her face when they said shes going to meet Beyonce was priceless!
Some beyonce fans are so insecure, it’s SICKENING. And some of you wonder why people don’t like beyonce. You bees will be her downfall.
Something we can agree on the H** is very insecure.
Wait. What? Its not Beyoncé fans hating on Brandy. You are confused sweety.
LOOL anything the HIVE has to say makes them pressed!! Even if we’re just responding to shade, they only see what we said!! Kiiii The Hate for Beyonce is REAL! 🙂
It’s plenty of beyonce stans that HATE anything not named beyonce, ESPECIALLY Brandy. I don’t have it messed up, go back up and read the comments again. They’re even trying Bran on youtube too, it’s ugly! Beyonce warned y’all to calm it down, I see some of y’all didn’t listen to her.
Girl shut your sensitive ass up! ALL stans shade! But of course you only see what the HIVE says! That’s because you already dislike Beyonce! Hiw can a fan make you dislike someone? Sensitive much? Kii
So I guess you just skip past MAJORITY of the Beyoncé fans comments by Slay Hive, Royal Kev, Bey Fan and myself who all praised Brandy and instead focus on one comment out of all the other haters? You’re reaching for the moon tbh.
Didn’t a beyonce fan s*** someone because some random guy didn’t know that Beyonce and Jay Z were married? I think they did a story about it. Yeah, all stans shade but beyonce stans have a spot reserved for being some of the WORST stans of them all. No shade, but SHADE.
Royalkev is one of my favorite beyonce fans, he’s like the most objective, level-headed one of the lot. I know there are some good beyonce fans out there, but a LOT of them are NUTS. You know that saying, one bad apple spoils the bunch. But I’m not trying to come for y’all necks. I’m just gonna leave it at that.
Hun that one crazy fan DOES NOT represent us all!! Have several! Don’t let what we say affect you that bad boo 😉
The HIVE’S impact though>>>>>
Wtf does that have to do with this post! You dedicated a WHOLE comment to the Hive hating when majority are praising Brandy? Tf? Why are you worried?
No, I won’t be seated, I’ll remain standing! Thanks!
No worries over here, no need to worry!
Now let’s continue praising the Icon and Vocal Bible that is GHandy Norwood!
We were praising her more than you tbh. You were more bothered about one comment so there’s no need to direct us thanks.
No need to worry about what I’m doing!
I give her props ALL over the place. Not just
here, but thanks for your concern!
And there’s no need to worry about the Hive. Majority love Brandy OK.
Just ignore them girl. Everyone knows that Beyonce is an icon at best, not no damn legend. A legend has more than 20 yrs of experience in their field
Xtina has the title Beyonce and brandy wish they had.
Girl go to bed, then wake up and purchase as many copies of FLOPonic and Floptus as you can!! Loool
Lol you do the same with 4 sis so it can finally reach 3 million worldwide
But the sells of 4 ALONE..have outsold the last two FLOPtina albums!! Tell your fave to catch up! 😉
Lol girl bye … Beyonce still cant compete will Christina vocally so stay pressed A*** h**
LOOL TOO BAD THE GP DISAGREES!! CONTINUE TO SEETHE AT HER IRRELEVANCY!! FLOP SUPPORTING B****! GN
Sis, you need to stop trolling behind Xtina name. I wonder who you really stan for. Probably not even Ciara.
Kelly
That’s where you’re wrong. Brandy is the Vocal Bible. That title was coined for her, and no one else. No offense,but no one was thinking of christina when they came up with that.
There’s no need for her to go after someone else’s title when she has her OWN. No offense, but christina isn’t the voice of our generation. That title belongs to Whitney Houston. She was the Voice. The one and only, no one else, not mariah, not christina, but Whitney. She took that title to her grave, sorry.
Preview from her concert in Africa?
Xtina Warrior aka Xtina Love is the same person as the Ciara fans. B**** you’re not fooling nobody.
I am a Kelly fan, who respects and loves Brandy. Its not all hate Bran Bran.
In much more relevant news, Critics love Lorde – Pure Heroine, billboard gave it a 94.
I got the album yesterday and it has been on RIHpeat since I got it.
All these haters need to die or have a f****** stadium of seats.YEEEES brandy better than the original. Vocal bible! She did the damn thinnnnng!
LOL…. WTF IS GOING???
THESE LIL KIDS STILL CRYING OVER THIS UNNECESSARY POST??? THE STARZ INCLUDING ME HAVE SEEN BRANDY LIVE MANY TIMES AND KNOW FOR SURE SHE AIN’T SOME STUDIO SINGER SO I WOULDN’T EVEN WASTE MY BREATH. AS FOR CERTAIN FANS THOUGH..SMFH AND LMFAO
Such great journalism. Such prolific writing techniques. I mean, to use “is” before and after you need to. ICONIC!
I love Brandy shes an r&b legend. Don’t understand the hate.
This women can sing! her registrar is just higher, with better! Better range that’s all..
xtina is a vocalist, do doubt about it…beyonce voice cannot touch xtina…
yall claim all xtina does is scream…ummm that 1+1 song, all beyonce was doing was screaming on the track..
her voice is decent, but has zero power. all the screaming and singing loud…..if she ever did a duet with brandy, brandy would murder her..
of course as usual when ever somebody does a cover of a beyonce song, they become stans of hers..
brandy has done many covers, rihanna, so I’m guessing she stans hard for rihanna too..
Hon in Brandys own words she said shes a Beyoncé STAN not ours.
Does the Hive have a name for its fans yet? People stay stalking them and their comments.
And for those who didn’t know, the Hive don’t make s*** up like other fan bases.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R35wtq0YzGM
Beyonce on Brandy: Beyonce: “She is a great singer. I love her vocal arrangements. I love the lyrics.”
(Brandy – Focus – Afrodisiac)
I like Brandy she amazing, but saying she could easily murder Beyoncé is a stretch when Beyoncé has more range and versatility in her voice than her. They both have amazing technique though. I do love Brandy as well so its no hate.
And I don’t know why other fan are dragging Brandy when their favs are nocalists, she was clearly experiemnting.
Brandy doesn’t have as much versatility as Beyonce? STOP. I’m not trying to shade, but SHADE.
No other voice has captivated me like Brandy’s. There are so many layers and colors to her voice. Who else can create a song with multi-faced vocal tones within a multi-dimensional vocal arrangement? Who can change the texture of their voice from smokey to clear, like in “Open”? Who can use their voice like an instrument? Her voice was like a drum, doing certain accidentals in “Drum Life”. Who can make an unreleased song with no promo chart in a foreign country with NO promo? Who can use their voice to be the baseline of their song, like in A Capella (Something’s Missing)? Who can imitate the instrumental from another song, and rap over it like a pro as in “Whatever You Like”? No one but Brandy.
Songs like Nodding Off, Follow Me, Love Me the Most, Sweet Nothings, Drum Life, etc…the list goes on…Songs with deep layers and a multi-dimensional atmosphere…No one does them like Brandy. Her influence is strong, and stretches far beyond just the R&B genre. Her musical ear is UNDENIABLE…The simple fact that Two Eleven, being almost a year old yet having a HIGHER meta critic score than ANY beyonce album should tell you something. No shade, but…again!
Tf is this mess?
Brandy did that. These Beyonce Stans are a mess. i can easily name 5 woman who can give Beyonce a run for her money!
But yet she was still just playing…!Must we go back to Slow Love vocal match up ..!
That’s cute, I like “1+1”.
Maybe not one of the best on “4” but she always kills it live!
bad
I knew i wasnt going crazy, brandy doesnt stan for beyonce, because i remember kelly and brandy used to be very close, when Mathew was kelly’s manager, and
and kelly and brandy had a huge public fall out because brandy told kelly the knowles were using her, she needed to fire mathew and watch her friendship with beyonce
because like everybody and their mama can see kelly worships the ground beyonce walks on, and beyonce barely acknowledge kelly’s presence…
and kelly broke her friendship with brandy over her comments about the knowles…it was on every blog
now they’re are back to being friends…
She said on multiple occasions she stans for her.
Why is everyone so worried about the hive? Why is brandy star letting one comment spoil the rest of the good comments. I guess they jusy need a reason to talk s*** with the hive. Like seriously is their a contract somewhere saying you must talk s*** to the hive to get a reaction? Reminds me of these 3 girls on twitter plotting so they can get death threats from the hive like..tf??
I would have liked if brandy was serious though. Crazy ass lol
Aww,that was so good! Brandy killed it. And LMAO at the pressed b****** calling out the hive for everyone else’s hate. Even when we respond to shade,we are always the villains. You h*** can have several.
Reminds me of when Bran slayed her on this well.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUYb7tBQxeY
She didnt though lol.
There Slow Love and At Last. Brandy performed At Last at this club (not just in the bathroom). Brandy KILLED it.
That alien was throwing shade at Bee. She tried to be cute but her drunk act just made her look like a road killing mess.
Brandy is such a Beyonce Fan I love it ….Sang Brandy !!!
Brandy loves Bey. I cant with the ppl on this site making everything an argument when it doesnt need to be
The obsession with the Hive is real. I see Barbs, Kelly fans, xtina fans hating. And you want to focus on the Hive who are manly praising her? LMAO. They have a strange impact on some people.
First…. Your fav is a Beyonce fan… face it. Everyone loves Beyonce…with the exception of a few lessor.
Second, Most Beyonce fans are giving Brandy props. We recognize talent… which is way we’re fans of Beyonce.
Third, I dont like comparing Bey and B…i love em both. I think Brandy has a much better tone. But Beyonce has the range and versatility.
Last, Christina does have one of the best voices of our generation… however I think that she has strained it beyond belief. I really wish Christina could be a little more technical…. naw, f*** that, A LOT MORE TECHNICAL….
Beyonce has more range then Brandy… tht aint even a
2nd guess bcuz she does. Bey has better range & versatility. Bran has great technique but very little range & versatility; Brandy to sum have the better tone which i agree…
yes mam, she was having fun, LOVE IT!
Ugh, I swear all y’all that keep comparing Beyonce to every female in the game are making my ass itch!!! SHUT THE HELL UP!!! B’Rocka was clearly joking in this song just like she did with the 5 hour energy video and the subway video that is on her Instagram. Anyways, love both Bees that is all!!
LMAO..She sounds awful as usual. One of the worst singer’s in history! Vocal bible my ass LOL! Can someone please find this b****’s vocal range.
LET ME SAY THIS, all the other fan bases on here are crazy, but you Brandy stan’s take the cake for schizophrenia, you c**** lol are hearing and seeing things with this basis b**** that no sane person would LOL THIS B**** CAN’T SING!
Shame on you SAM, throwing Brandy under the bus for hits lol knowing good and well Brandys a “Kids party karaoke singer” Smh Lol
Umm
