UMMMM... Sam im wit you.. cause i didnt feel a connection with any of the songs besides Fall, Long Distance.. im sorry to say( and i could be wrong which i doubt it) but Afrodisca is by far the best CD!!!! And this i know want top that cd at all....

lol.. ^^ Everybody knows "Full Moon" is her best cd to date, so you're wrong already..

When did Sam say he didn't like it? He said it was sounding great.

I'm not going to listen because Brandy has always been so much about building harmonies and quiet storm production that I don't think 30 seconds does anyone any favors. Nothing but full for me.

Wow...this by far has got 2 be brandys weakest project. Ive always been a fan of hers...so much that i cant say if i like Never Say Never Full Moon or Afrodisiac better. I love ALL 3 and i seem 2 have a hard time choosing which one i can call my fav.

But this...its boring, its weak, they all sound the same. Something is soooo diffrent about her this time, i cant put my finger on it, i think its because of the accident but this stinks.

Shattered Heart sounds good but the rest isnt that great. IDK whats up with great artists putting out bad cds, between her and this new beyonce garbage...im scared 2 see how Keyshia Cole will turn out becuase im a very big fan.

Sorry Brandy, wont be picking it up...think shes played out as bad as it may seem

I like brandy and all but, she went kinda hard on the pop sound didn't she?? i mean, i honestly can't say i will be buying this album...the sound is kinda boring to me. i guess pretty soon here real R&B music will be non-existant, with everybody trying for the pop appeal and all. that really hurts my heart. i wish her the best though

What is this garbage?!? Brandy...Babygirl...what in hell?!? She has sold her soul to the pop devil. R&B this is not...I have to agree w/ many here who says it sounds like ONE LONG SONG. OMG...w/ that voice of hers...the sky is the limit. And she comes back w/ this...4 YEARS waiting for new music & you come back w/ this piece of ISH!!
I'm beyond disappointed...Britney Spears came back harder than this & she went full out crazy. No,No,No..this is not my Brandy. Usually I hold judgement until I hear the whole album...but, i wasn't connected to any song. 1st & love heard already(I do like that)...the acapella thang was nice...but, overall it was just blah.

Did yall hear the VOCALS, THE ACAPELLA WITH HER DOING ALL THE PARTS, EVEN THE DAMN BASS. THIS GIRL DESERVES HER GROWTH AND SUCCESS. Oh but I forgot, yall want Rihanna and Ciara LOL. KEEP DOING YO THANG BRANDY, YOU SOUND GREAT!

I'm a hugh Brandy fan and I've bought ALL her albums but I will pass on this one. The songs sound all the same and I'm not feeling this "pop" sound she has going on with this new album, I guess she trying to crossover. Sorry, but I want the old Brandy back...

WOW, I must say Im really impressed, its a major change for Bran,but it shows the diversity she can pull off in music, and how strong her voice is,and how she wasn't lieing when she says "Im here for a purpose" she is really going to change peoples lives,with these songs. A beautiful woman to marry, and an inspiration to look up to. Im luvin A Capelle, Long Distance, True, Fall, 1st & love, and the intro the most!

I have no problem w/ experimenting & trying different genres. Its about growing & evolving as an artist. But, the overall sound on this album..sounds the same. No one has mentioned about Brandy can't sang...it's more Brandy ain't sanging the hits we love. It is straight up POP...nothing even hinting at some R&B vibe...which I slowly dying & is in dire need. She had a spot to fill...looks like Keyshia Cole or Monica will have to fill it.

Uhm ya'll crazy....This album sounds amazing...I have to agree i did and still do want the R&B old brandy back and i thought i wasnt gonna like this album that much. But after gearing the snippets i think its another brandy masterpiece. I love the concepts, and shes actually singing about something worth listening to and relating to.
Its sad cause people are so caught up in the auto tune/euro ectro pop untempo shyt, their ears have been completely closed.
Brandy most definitely did her thing on this project!

I am definitely supporting brandy I have been a fan and i think that from the snippets this album sounds GREAT!!!!! whether it sounds too "POP" i love it her voice is amazing and all the songs just seems to fit. All the ones that saying they cannot relate are probably listening to the production instead of the words. She only "HUMAN"

I must say................. Not happy at all, I have all of Brandy work, all of her work, but what the hell i this??????

I'm really bout to cry cuz I love her so f n much, and all the best song all the R&B song didnt even make the cut!!!!!







Procelain Doll didnt make the cut

The List didnt make the cut

Lately didnt make the cut

Throw it all away didnt make the cut

Drumlife didnt make the cut

Deepest thoughts didnt make the cut


Those songs r the best songs but yet they didnt make the cut.

Its seems to me that her target is not black people, its pop, country, white people.

R&B is what got her on the map, but this album is everything but R&B!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Top of all that shit, she sounds too studio, she sounds like Brittany Spreas.


Brandy love u dearly..........................

But try one more time.

I don't know why there are some that are suprised at the pop sound of the album. Brandy has NEVER been pure R&B. I think she sounds great!! You have to open your mind to new sounds from you favorite artists. I'm sure the artists themselves get tired of the same sound and being put in a box musically. A more universal sound seems to be what's popular now. You can't not support your favorite singer because they decided to try something different

I have to say that I am really excited about this album, I think that the new pop sound is great for her cross over appeal. I really like the direction she is going in with this one. Every one of the songs sound absolutely beautiful. From the ballads to the up beat songs. I love her voice and her runs. I can tell already that this album is going to be way better than Beyonce's. Yes I said it. There are definetely doubters on these comments and I have to say that it is really unattractive, yall didn't even hear the whole album and yall call yall self fans. Yall want her to do 90s R&B, hell no!!. Brandy this album sounds great and I will be buying 2 copies. I love you Brandy!!!!!

I think the pop sound is good it show that she can do more than one song. People lets be Real the money is in pop. Alot of artist that just come out with a rnb album only go gold, just like afrodisiac. Change is good.

That is right Brandy has always been hailed as a very pop artist with hints of R & B PLUS people are overreacting about artist wanting to do pop. Brandy made a very R & B record with Afrodisac so why we should want to do that same thing???? (PLUS stop getting tripped up over genre and just ENJOY MUSIC goodness peoplecan be SOOO close-minded) I am loving what I hear brandy music ministers to me this time around. I am sooo grateful for songs like "Long Distance," "Fall," and "Right Here" they have that message/meaning and inspiration that ALOT of the music out does not have anymore. I LOVE YOU BRANDY!!!!! Thank you for bringing QUALITY music back.

Okay, to those of you who are dissapointed, some of the songs do kinda sound the same on the first listen, but you have to listen to each snippet a few times. I waited a few hours and then listed again real closely and I must say I like a most of the songs so far! Brandy's songs have always, always had to grow on me but after hearing it in rotation 4 or 5 times they become my favorites! Just give the woman a chance. I bet you will be harmonizing and singing along and grow to love this side of Brandy as well!! Love ya Brandy & I know I will love the new album! Come on ya'll, let's support our girl!!!

Oh dear! a bit sedate and somewhat lacking in... something. People are talking about 30sec, but this is when you will usually like a song or not, if you think about all the songs you like, when you hear the intro is when you know, same as when in a club it's that intro that always does it for you. I have to say that i have every album but this one is doing her no favors, there is not one standout track or potential next single its almost if the record company are setting her up to fail.

Well her label and Beyonces label were on same page. Both albums are Pop/folk/atl./country and designed for more POP/White Audiences not Urban. Its a nice Album like Beyonces...again best RNB album of year is Ushers Here I Stand/Mariah's E=mc2 although its a lot pop has the most RnB on it from any female artist this year.

Just because one doesn't like one or two "bad" albums by an artist, doesn't make them less of a fan. The songs she & her team decided to leave on this album, most aren't that different and in a matter of weeks, they will be forgettable. Beyonce & Deborah Cox's new CDs are forgettable album. Must be something in the air because the artists that have been around more than 10 years seems to have lost their "spark".

Let me start off saying I am a VERY big fan of brandy. I liked her every since her first album. theres something different in her that i can not pin point. I was forced to like right here, and i was quite forced to like long distance. this is not the brandy that i fell in love with. you see the problem is all the money is in the pop field so it seems as all r&b artist are fleeing over there. Including beyonce thats why her fans are bitching about her new album. wheres the rhythm in this album bran... like i cant believe im honestly sayting this when i seen her at 106&park a few dayz ago and was crying. im going to buy the album regardless and leave it sealed to just push her record sales but i can honestly say that this gonna flop. brandy is getting her personal spirtual life too involved in her music now. i feel that its her job to put out great music not a story. ill go buy a book for that. i cant believe im sitten here saying this for somebody i deaply love and i feel that all those other post are not being as hated i feel its just a true opinion. u can love your mother to death but when she does sumthin wrong u will let her know. i just wish brandy would break away this pop vibe and think about her fans back in 1998 when she released Never say Never and it pushed over 5 million copies and won her a grammy. that obvious thats what her fans want because full moon just barely sold over 1 million and afrodisaic wasnt even near the 1 million mark. Plz brandy....
