    reinvention after you have lost lots of fans? reinvention is not that easy, especially when you don’t know how it will be accepted. On another note every artist have to reinvent some oint in their career. Go brandy, the way to go but what took you so long?

    Will you lay off Brandy for one day. You give her way too much attention and she has nothing to show for it

  6. Sleazy September 7, 2011

    For artist like Brandy. Ciara. Ashanti etc Its gonna be like starting over again! Yall aint gonna sell millions again If you don’t come hard You must bring it! And Get a Good team Let your teams take Note from Rihanna or Beyonce Team! You need to sit and think what wenyt wrong! I do how ever think Fantasy Ride & Human Was amazin Albums!

  9. TYLER September 7, 2011

    Just hurry up with a new album. quit talking about it and just do it! This is her last shot, if she blows it than her career could be over. this will be here last album if it flops. So come hard on go home! I’m and a Brandy Stan. So I want this for her soooo badly! she needs to make another Afrodisiac album with more promo. thats her best album to date!

  10. BRANDYALLDAWAY September 7, 2011

    @percy

    No the minute beyonce drops a pen for example. its a hype. Brandy is in an interview prepin her comeback, and the journeys already begun. If anyone deserves a comeback its brandy! So im happy that thatgrapejuice are givin her the time to shine!

    I’m so ready!!!

  14. THE RETURN OF THE GREAT LACEFRONCE. September 7, 2011

    Trandy = FLOP
    just like BLEACHonce and Caca.

  15. THEMAN September 7, 2011

    I think that Brandy will do well. But it almost feels like this new era has already been dragged out. It just feels exhausting.

  16. KNUCK September 7, 2011

    Brandy doesn’t have to worry about any of you haters!!!! She shitted on Drop Dead Diva and the creator has been recieving so many emails and tweets about GHANDY that you can almost guarantee that she will continue to appear next season after she finishes out this season. I know people are mad at the success and the EASE at which she can come back to TV and slay after such a long break.

    The music will slay LIVES. She has the greats dying to work with her and many already have. She’s worked with Jazmine Sullivan for sure. I can’t with the MATTED wigs on this post.

    The only thing I can agree with is that this era is dragging. It feels like the same thing is happening that happened after Dancing With The Stars. She is doing a lot of interviews but there is nothing NEW to talk about until she drops a single! At least a BUZZ single! At this point leaked tracks are her friend. It will COMPLEMENT her tv appearances.

  17. Kisses September 7, 2011

    I’m really not worried because I’m buying this album like a bought her last five. This girl is so underrated, it’s ridiculous.

  18. B_STANNING AND LOVING ADELE September 7, 2011

    WOW i forget how much i love brandy still

  19. Geronimo Deuces September 7, 2011

    m sorry but brandys time is OVA…..

  20. Bey Fan… September 7, 2011

    Love Brandy….my other “B” ….

  21. BRANDYALLDAWAY September 7, 2011

    BRandy is just begining..

    Please remember that getting a record deal down on lock, ironing out the the bits and pieces that ensures she has the right promotion and creative freedoms means we get a brandy album, we get a stronger brandy one that come back to life, and some.

    I know it feels like its dragging but, id rather things be done right than done rushed and not thought through. And shes got the team, its just a case of making sure that everyone does there jobs properly.. BTW she slays in acting, which most of these RNB chicks cant do..

  22. jbash September 7, 2011

    Brandy stop tring to be hot…just put out indie or free mixtapes for your fans…no one cared or cares about you…by you trying to please the masses and trying to be hot like Bey Rih ie you are letting your true fans down how wanna her the old Brandy not Bran-new rappin…(said with love from a fan, although as of late ain’t checkin for you eigther sorry)

  23. THE ICONIC LACEFRONCE RETURNS September 7, 2011

  24. BRANDYALLDAWAY September 7, 2011

    @jbash

    She isnt tryin to please the masses, shes giving her fans what they deserve- no way can someone sell $30 million records if they never had a fanbase or wasnt cared about. With her its just about the right material being released,

    B-ROCKA!

  33. Tristan September 7, 2011

    Brandy is one of the few artist that releases a new album and it sounds completely different than the one before and that’s the definition of an artist. From her debut to ‘Human’, though experimental, Brandy stays consistent in delivering good albums and I know the new album will not disappoint. I’m rooting for you Bran Bran!

  34. Lewis September 7, 2011

    Hahahaha

  35. BRANDYALLDAWAY September 7, 2011

    Brandy has sold 30 million. So F*** everyone who hates on brandy.. u just a hatin criket, makin small noise, but when u get close u go quiet.

  36. Nick September 7, 2011

    Look for me i’m classic and happy

  37. bey’knight September 7, 2011

    lmaooo at the two lacefronces that is if there are indeed two, that creature has mental disturbance SOS

    @lil wayne thr best rapper

    First u cant describe Brandy as overrated she hit it big, she just fell off due to circumstance thats not same as say someone like Kelly Rowland and who said Bey and Rih are selling off of soul, #stop #dont

    lmao @KNUCK no disrespect to Brandy but u said the greats are striving to work with her and then u mention Jazmine Sullivan, really?

    PS; she looks really phyne in that pic. wa was she meant to be promoting though cus they spent like 3 mins talkin about last year’s season of DWTS

  38. NikkiIsChillin September 7, 2011

    Congrats to Brandy. I wish her the best. She is an incredible artist.

  39. I’ma have to send her to her maker September 7, 2011

    It seems no one rly cares about brandy unless she is forced down ppl’s throats. I don’t know if she’ll ever have her same fame like she did in the 90s. I’m a fan. Gotta admit so many ppl have overshadowed her career like beyonce, monica, rihanna,….etc. I’m starting to lose interest in her sometimes.

  40. LMAO September 7, 2011

    LMFAO @Almond Joy how old are u 12?? Have any of you heard of RIAA brandy is one of the biggest selling artist in american history… Cleary you have never researched soundscan because she has for sure sold over 30 million records.. You people kill me with the hate.. If you dont like her just dont comment, but dont make false statements, You just confirm your ignorance.

  41. careerender September 7, 2011

    There is no way monica is greater than Brandy. Have a sit in a dark corner. Flopnica’s last hit was Angel Of Mine while Brandy’s was Right Here(Departed)…therefore Brandy >>>>>>>>>>> monica

  42. royalkev September 7, 2011

    I can’t wait for Brandy to finally hit it on the nail and give us the truly remarkable music we all know she’s capable of creating. Brandy is a talented, unique artist that still have so much more to give on her musical journey. It’s been a while since we’ve had a handful of real gifted artist out representing Pop/soul and Innovative R&B. It’s time for Brandy’s return, it’s been long overdue. She’s influenced so many (from Chris Brown to Ciara) and it’s now time for her mark her territory and spell it out for everyone that have forgotten how special artist like her and Aaliyah were to the industry. I want to see those artist again that have a true love and respect for music get the comeback they deserve! It’s sad to see most people out now jumping on every trend and sounding like all of their peers these days. Brandy always sound refreshing and I pray this one is big for her.

  43. nice_gurl September 7, 2011

    It’s going to take a lot of work for the album to sell well after being away from music for so long. She’ll have to put out some good material and promote like crazy. Can’t wait.

  44. nunu September 7, 2011

    love Brandy she is a true artist ! can’t wait for her new material to come out

  45. HALF AMAZIN September 7, 2011

    You tweens compare Brandy to Ciara and Ashanti? Puhleeeease. Brandy is one of the few people we have left who can speak of a LIFETIME of solo work without sellin out, stealing/being “inspired”, f***** for tracks, etc. Brandy has grown up into such a mature, relatable woman. Back in the day she used to be sterile and rehearsed like some of those who shall remain nameless…I like her better now. Eventhough Human wasn’t her best album I liked it and she’s shown that she is just that.

  46. b**** please September 7, 2011

    BRANDY NEVER FAIL TO AMAZE ME SO I’M SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS ALBUM AS ALWAYS.

  47. b**** please September 7, 2011

    AS FOR THE HATERZ I DON’T EVEN WANT TO WASTE MY TIME MY TINY BREATH ON YOU CUZ I JUST CANNOT….SMDH

  48. MONICASTAN September 7, 2011

    @Royalkev, well said. We love you Bran and just cannot wait.

  49. bandyfanfromuk September 7, 2011

    Go Brandy and bring it on cuz its been a long time coming. #Starz we must show em how we do it.

  50. kwame September 7, 2011

    Waving to all the #Superstarz tht are repping. Let kep it up high to the brim. Love love love brandy.

  51. Eric Crawley September 7, 2011

    lol trying to hook brandy up with her cousin..that was funny

  52. STEVOY September 7, 2011

    B’Rocka is going to bring back heavy hitting R&B music before everyone started following the pop trend. She came from such humble beginnings. She’s one of those artist who you can hear her heart and influences no matter what she sings. There’s something about a Dark Child and Brandy track, timeless. They had a branded sound, and now it’s duplicated. Her best music is when she and Dark Child do signature things.

  53. B*R*A*N*D*Y FANATIQUE September 8, 2011

    Brandy= “B”eautiful • “R”eal • “A”mbitious • “N”ever N*** • “D”iva• “Y”ep …that’s Brandy.

  54. jarel September 8, 2011

    looking forward to the musuc

  55. antertain September 8, 2011

    Get those jobs Brandy.

    Projects like that are good for her, especially with the experience she has on TV.
