QuoteI grew up loving Imogen Heap and Bjork. And one of my favourite female voices to this day is Alanis Morissette. Those voices really did something for me, growing up to me they sounded like cognac and cigar smoke, they had these cool tones that worked well with rock and alternative music.  As far as what I do organically, I just go in and whatever feels good, feels good I don?t force it. Leads and adlibs are cool but my favourite thing to do when I?m in the studio is backgrounds. I can go on and on for days, there?s this sense of peace and chanting. Like an army of bad motherfuckers always behind me, like a 1000 people in believing me and 1000 people behind me every time doing these counter chants which are so African, so Creole and so New Orleans.
People want so badly for there to be Brandy-isms. I didn?t know about Brandy until college, I didn?t grow up on Brandy, I grew up on Bjork and Imogen Heap.  So there was no influence but I respect her. I think she?s one of the dopest singers we?ve ever had in our time. When I found out about her through my brother, I was like this girls voice is on a whole other level so the respect of Brandy is definitely there. She to me is the vocal bible, but I don?t necessarily take her style or influence into my music. I don?t think of Brandy when I think of the formatting of my music and I think it?s funny that only black people think that.

Come on guys.
The Bj?rk influence in "Been A While" is pretty obvious.

:jackiessales:

There is more to that interview, where she praises Brandy too. But many people ignore that part
But yeah, saying she didnt hear Brandy in her childhood, with Brandy being that huge in the 90s, I mean.... come on Dawn, lol. I get that she dislike to be compare, but... at least understand people's point, and just appreciate it, and call it a day

This is old. We already lashed her worse than Hurricane Katrina did.
