Title: Brandy & Camper Have Chosen the First Single
Post by: Magic on May 07, 2019, 01:30:55 PM
Camper confirmed yesterday that the first single has been chosen for Brandy's new album.

Sources have said the album will arrive sometime in August/September.

Brandy and Fantasia share the same label and management. They will focus on Fantasia's June release first and then prioritize Brandy's release afterward.

A lot goes into releasing a lead single, at least if u do it the right way. The label has to hire a director to do the video treatment. The Urban department of the label has to create a satisfactory radio and digital campaign to promote the release of the single. Art work. Her mgmt and publicist has to negotiate promo air time for radio and television interviews and performances. Venues need to be booked for a tie in tour. Spotify, iTunes and Apple Music need to guarantee visibility for the single.

A lot of fans think Brandy can just drop a song and it automatically charts. The planning and prework for a successful single is tedious and expensive. Especially when the artist hasn't been out in a while. If the first single fails, that comes out of the album's budget and reduces the chances of multiple follow up singles.

We just gotta be patient. It's coming. Very soon.

i have an idea of how it works..but thanks... :-)

ol' girl still have had a whole lotta time to drop her track...  and we're tired of waitin'...every other artist drop songs left and right and albums too..it's not like it's impossible but when it comes to our girl it always takes centuries to finally give up on the project after the 2nd single...
so much for preparation and promo... lol  just sayin'..
she might as well release
at this point, promo or not, people just want her music, if it's really good the work might speak for itself and catch attention...
oh and promo is not the only key... to me it's the single choice 1st... if ur single sucks compared to the other songs of ur album people won't be interested in ur projet even with good promo..
so yeah that single better a great representation of the body of work she took 6+ years to deliver...

would be great to do it back to back... and not have a 3 month gap in between like before... it's 2019 people's interest when it comes to music don't even last a month..

so she should come prepared and be reactive cause ...

lol

It's like y'all forgot that she was legally unable to record and release music from 2013-2017. She was stuck in a bad contract fighting to get her career back. It wasn't by choice.

She's new to eOne and Primary Wave as well. Why do y'all think she has been performing all over the country for the last 2 years? Part of that money is funding this projext and the numbers from those shows will help book the headlining tour that y'all cried so much about not having last era.

The music is coming. Brandy deserves a good set up for this project which is something she really hasn't had since the Full Moon era.

we havent forgot...

well we all wish the best to our baby...we're all just tired of waitin' and being' teased with no music coming' out months after month...and we as fans have also the right to feel that way cause at the end of the day we support her craft...
of course the set up has to be right etc... but come on, time to serve us some music.
Get a plan and stick to it till the end...dont just drop the ball after a couple of singles when ur albums are full of single-worthy tracks... get it together Bran...
