2012 may have seen R&B veteran Brandy land a starring role on BET’s ‘The Game’, but when it comes to vocal displays, we all know, she. does. not. play!  As if there aren’t already a wealth of performances and recordings to reiterate such, the songbird took to Los Angeles’ ‘Sing-A-Rama 2012’ recently (an event she annually guests) to sing ‘His Eye Is On The Sparrow’.

Previous years have seen Ms. Norwood turn the event out with her stunning vocal demonstrations, but none quite like this!  Get an eye and earful of the ‘Long Distance’ diva in this short clip after the jump:

‘Stay With Me’ singer Ne-Yo has certainly stayed low-key as of late months after swapping mixtape plans with the preparation of a full LP.  Despite generating moderate buzz for his Trey Songz-assisted single ‘The Way You Move’, the R&B crooner has remained fairly mute on the musical tip since the under-performance of 2010’s ‘Libra Scale’.

Albeit reportedly readying his return to radio later this year, Ne-Yo starts off his 2012 with his cinematic debut in the George Lucas-directed ‘Red Tails’.  The semi-biographical film, boasting an all-star cast featuring Terrence Howard and Cuba Gooding, Jr., sees the crooner take flight in new ways as the group have joined to depict the famous story of the Tuskeegee Airmen.

Already jetting up the promotional trail for ‘Tails’, last night saw the singer drop by Jimmy Kimmel Live to give fans a few sneak peeks of the film.  Also, chatting it up with BET, watch this clip and find out what Ne-Yo had to say about divas Beyonce, Celine Dion, and Mary J. Blige after the jump:
