8 years. Wow guys. It's over.
Listened through it once and nothing really blew me away. Say Something and No tomorrow grabbed me the most. Rather Be is still the best track. 😅
Now I'm about to listen again. Hopefully it grows on me.
Vocal vise she's just perfect.

From what was sent with the album
Sorry for my tardy
Long time
I was broken-hearted
Hearted and guarded
A target god-damn
Can we let me live Can we
Let me live?
Just cause I can sing for you
Sounds like Brandy
Candy
I'm as solid as a Roc without the boat
Kinda like The goat
But I ain't saving all my love
Verse 1
Laden
Lay my burdens
Down
Down
Down
Complicated
I hesitated
I'm always in my head
Can I get me outta here
I'm out there
Over the rainbow somewhere
Somewhere
Aggregated
Agitated
I got an attitude problem
Let's resolve it
Sorry
Hook
Sorry for my tardy
Long time
I was broken-hearted
Hearted and guarded

Kinda like The goat
But I ain't saving all my love
Verse 2
I'mMedicated
I am free to move a
About the cabin
Here I stand
Here take my hand
Hand in hand
It's different
Boy You'za liar
A liar
Throw rocks and hide your hands
I'm taking back my hand
I've been a Mississippi River
So cry, cry me a River
Or walk on your own water
Sorry
Hook
Sorry for my tardy
Long time
I was broken-hearted
Hearted and guarded

Listening again for the second time...
Vocals are really the highlight, but that's what is expected for a Brandy album.
Say Something has grown on me, it joins Rather Be, Borderline, No Tomorrow and Lucid Dreams as part of B7's wealthy elite.
The rest of it is still massively underwhelming...the production is terrible. I blame Camper.
Oh no
Please get DRAKE on the BORDERLINE remix
Can someone please PM me the link? Thanks!
On first listen, the first half of the album is really strong (no skips).
Rather Be
Lucid Dreams
Borderline
No Tomorrow
Say Something
:plzstop:
Overall, a good album. Her best since Afro...I think. I wish the sound quality/mixing was better though. And...
High Heels is fucking terrible :uhh:
Baby Mama - Still MEH
the production is kinda blah to me
but I love I AM MORE whew
Boderline is really chill and definitely a vibe
Saving all my love is a great way to open the album and definitely caught me by surprise
unconditional oceans is my fave right now
I wanna save some songs for tomorrow so I'm gonna wait to listen to Lucid, say something, and bye
Lucid is insane
Yall forgot I Am More but I agree

The album came with lyrics?
White/European Brandy fans will hate this album :dead: I just love how this one isn't pandering at GP like Two Eleven, it's truly a personal and sorta gloomy record.
I personally love the atypical song structures and melodies of this album. Bran makes them inviting and enticing unlike my experience with the current R&B gorls.
Ray J has to be on the backgrounds to BORDERLINE :plzstop:

DSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Top 5 as of now:
1 - I Am More
2 - Say Something
3 - Lucid Dreams
4 - No Tomorrow
5 - Rather Be/Bye Bipolar
High Heels really is the Turn it Up of this album tho :dead:
Lucid is THAT GORL!
It was my least favorite snippet but I'm completely SCALPED!
Top 5:
Lucid Dreams
Rather Be
Say Something
I Am More
Borderline
Overall, I am thoroughly enjoying the album. I can't wait to listen in it's entirety. I need to hear the transitions.
I can do without High Heels and the interludes, but maybe they'll make more sense as a whole.

Hmmm I can't say if you'll like it or not. Depends. But I can understand why someone wouldn't like it .... this to me is like what Solange described as "deep Brandy cuts" meaning only the most savvy brandy fans will understand what she did here. It's awkward, it's weird, it's trippy and a bit like a blur but it works for me. I love it.

The production is very minimalistic for the most part.
Bran's vocals, arrangements and harmonies are the shining point. It's an interesting listen. The song structures are so unconventional. No one could have made this album work other than Brandy. :plzstop:
It's so different and experimental yet....current sounding.

Just listened to the album all the way through. Hmm. Lemme listen again a couple more times and then form my opinion.
Anyone (like Buddha) that says this is their least fave Brandy album, not that I agree, but I can understand.
:shook:
Waiii y'all been listening 👀👀👀
A lot of people will not like this album I can tell you that much.. it's left, unusual, backwards even.. but she did what needed to be done. I fckin love it. These songs will continue to grow on you the more you listen and peel back the layers. It reminds me so much of my initial reaction of Full Moon. I thought it was awful ..the way she sounded and the production..but now .. smh

Perfect description.

"Europeans won't like this..."
yeah it's so deep that only the americans can truly understand it
:usuresis:
on a more serious note though; I'm liking it the more I listen to it. No Tomorrow and Say Something are slaying me each time.
Rather Be is just everything I wanted from Bran.

A lot of people will not like this album I can tell you that much.. it's left, unusual, backwards even.. but she did what needed to be done. I fckin love it. These songs will continue to grow on you the more you listen and peel back the layers. It reminds me so much of my initial reaction of Full Moon. I thought it was awful ..the way she sounded and the production..but now .. smh
I thought Full Moon was terrible when I first tried to listen but it became my favorite album of all time by any artist
Yeah but Rodney murked that production...
God I'm so nervous :dead: I guess I'll just see come midnight.
Glock can you post the lyrics to Say Something, Bye Bipolar and Borderline? Or just throw them all in while you're at it!
Stop messing about guys and send another link... thanks 😂😂
to everyone asking for links:
Ch just google "Brandy b7" and show the pages updated in the last hour and you will find plenty of links

That's great and I love that about Brandy but how's the production?
the album is solid like people have been saying.
I wouldn't say amazing just yet...
I need to sit with it more
High Heels should have been left off
Baby Mama doesn't fit at all
Standouts to me are: Lucid Dreams, No Tomorrow, Rather Be, Say Something, Borderline
Unconditional is dope but I need to listen more...
I like "I am More" and "Saving All My Love" more than I expected to.
A couple of the songs do get a bit boring like someone had said. And one thing I noticed...
I don't feel like there were as many WOW vocal moments. With each album there are
more than a handful of runs or adlibs that are just like "WOWWW"
The album is pretty minimalistic, which I don't altogether mind.

I think you have it completely wrong.
The songs that are left/dark like "Lucid" and "Borderline" are gonna be the favourites amongst fans and casual fans.
It's songs like "Baby Mama" and "High Heels" that will have the fans scratching their heads.
High Heels shoulda never left the booth. Hell, it shoulda remained a thought in Bran and Campers heads.

It's not about deepness Noni, sonically most of the overseas gorls rather like pop/melodic Brandy the best. That's why there's so many Human/NSN fans in those countries. Modern R&B and trap isn't really popular over there, but nu disco and other current shit are. It's obvious
And not even talking about Bsource members because we all in here know and love Bran's different phases and deep cuts

So true. This album is very dark .. almost depressing throughout but that's the point.
I'm a cracker and my fave albums are Afrodisiac and Full Moon, will I like this? 2/11 is my LEAST favorite. I love dark, moody Ghan. But I also want the production to be unique and goodT.

As left, unusual and backwards this album is I have a feeling it will
surprisingly catch the ears of the masses. This project is a weed smokers dream listen.
I don't even smoke or do psychedelics and I feel high and tripped out listening.
Unconditional Oceans is EASILY the best song on the album for me. So perfect.
I want that CD quality. It's gonna tell me everything I need to know.
Yall are blaming Camper when Brandy spearheaded this project. He only did EXACTLY what she heard and wanted him to do.
This is all Brandy telling her lil minions what to do. I appreciate this body of work just for that. It's exactly what she wanted it to be.
As an artist that is really important.

my fav !! it made me emotional i don't know why
omgggggg such a Sissy :dead: :plzstop: :plzstop: i been weak listening' to it lol maybe the joy of hearing' Queen on a nu album
So I listened... all I know is that the mixing/production girls are gonna have a field day when they listen b/c it's clear as night and day which songs was better than others
Besides that... I need more listens... my standouts are the below:
+ Unconditional Oceans - this is my SHIT (wish it was mixed better and Pamper should've had The Neptunes add production it just made sense)
+ Rather Be - is the fuckin SONG of the album too
+ Lucid Dreams - dope af
+ Borderline - was cool too but something is a little off, ima keep listening
+ Say Something - this is dope
+ I Am More - This is good too until Bran Nu popped up lmao
+ No Tomorrow - was cute too but something about it is off, maybe I'm too used to the interlude version but ima keep listening
I ain't gonna grade the album yet until I get more listens but I'm not wowed or disappointed
I'll need to listen more to SAML and UO before making a judgement, but Borderline and Lucid Dreams really catch me just after one listen.
:gorlonfire: :gorlonfire: :gorlonfire:
This is one of the most unorthodox R&B projects I've ever heard. It's almost a separate genre. Damn. She did what needed to be done here.

Its EVERYTHING. See, Im kinda pissed that Brandy felt the need to hit up Hit Boy for some uptempo track for a 1st single mess. Cause I think this woulda been a perfect single and I could actually picture Chance as a feature on THIS song. Not that it needs a feature (dont get me wrong, its perfect), but Im jus sayin.
I can just imagine a music video for this. Geesh!!! Its one of the only songs on the album with a distinct melody and chorus.
And Brandy should've kept the part of "don't get fucked up" instead of that new part in Border... it fit it better

Yeah, real quick while I get me some M&M's from the 7-Eleven

:plzstop:
c
but the way she sings it is cute
Fave to least fave:
1) Unconditional Oceans - a perfect song - a solid melody and chorus - easy to sing along to - production is solid. prob the only song on the album that is perfect the way it is to me.
2) Rather Be - needs to be 3rd single for sure - took me two listens to get it, but when I did, amazing. beat switch was cute - coulda done without it.
3) No Tomorrow - LOVE. had potential to be much better though. this is the kinda song where a simpler melody for the verses woulda been better. and the beat drop in the 2nd verse came in a little late for me. got too repetitive towards the end.
4) I Am More - prob my fave vocal off the album. Prob shoulda came in as the 2nd song on the album. Melodious. That rap at the end - why?
5) SAML - Love this. Abstract and kinda all over the place, but it works very well as an album opener.
6) Borderline - Strong song. Had the potential to be better though. I agree with Daniel Caeser - needed some editing.
7) Lucid Dreams - really like this song, but I feel like it had the potential to be much better. in a way, it sounds like the extended version of a dope interlude. the mixing on this is not my fave. the production is the highlight. would've preferred the SAML tone on this. the melody choices - its too hard to follow, which is prob my least fave part about this album.
8) Say Something - Its nice. A song that could grow on me more and possibly become a Top 5er. That damn piano playin at the beginning and ending - coulda done without it. Camper boi? Woulda liked a bridge and a slightly slower tempo.
9) Love Again - nice
10) Bye Biploar - nice - not much replay value
11) Baby Mama - loved this song as a stand alone - the album made me not like it as much cause it doesnt fit at all
12) High Heels - when it started, I was slightly boppin and as it progressed, chhhh.

!!!!!!!!!
They are going to have a field day!!!! The way people was coming at them too while they was highkey right :plzstop:
Ima little upset w/ Bran how minor stuff like this she let slip, I can see not having the right marketing team to push but mixing/mastering should never be an issue
The fact that my current fav Unconditional Oceans is not properly mixed kinda has me VEXED! 😤
Overall, I gotta say that Camper didnt come thru at all. They can never work again if thats at all possible. He needs to break her heart somehow so she can move the fuck on.
Highs:
Love how experimental she is. Her most experimental project since Afrodisiac. She challenged herself doing diff things. Lyrically, the album was pretty good overall. One of her most cohesive albums. She sounds amazing and I like that she was singing in the most comfortable parts of her range here. All these songs, she should be able to comfortably sing live without lowering keys or being hesitant to hit high notes.
Lows:
Production, mixing, mastering. Song structures, lack of solid melodies and choruses. Woulda preferred a balance of Without You, Shattered Heart, I Tried kinda records mixed with the progressive sound. A lot of the songs needed some kinda editing for me. Vocally, prob my least fave album of hers. Brandy is kinda known for not having an adlib or run outta place. With this album, there's too many little things I dont like and I think a part of it could be with the mixing and mastering of the songs. Something is off. Doesnt sound as polished. Her vocals on some songs actually sound higher than others.
I definitely would say this is my least favourite Brandy album. Not bad, but def my least fave. It's gonna get old quick. I can already tell. Too many skippable songs or songs I wont be in the mood to listen to on certain days.
On another note, it seems like this album is a compilation of her Unreleased era, which is good & bad...
ok, I listened the whole way through and then again without High Heels, Baby Mama.
I like it. I don't LOVE it.
It's a little inconsistent for me.
I'm not getting the whole "sequenced to perfection" and "beginning to end"
vibes people have been hinting at.
That being said, some of these songs sound magical to me and I will be playing this
through the summer.
Just not "beginning to end"
I'm happy overall. Congrats to bran

That's why I stayed silent. I hear what they were referring to but it doesn't make it any less enjoyable for me.

This is exactly how I'm feeling right now too... Ima still give it more time
Oh, and Borderline has me conflicted.
I like the way it starts and the way it ends.
I like the chorus.
But something happens in the middle.
I start to lose interest.
I agree with the comment about editing.
This era so far is giving cheap and unpolished for an artist like Brandy... And it's no shade at all just more of higher expectations after an 8 year wait... she just needs a stronger, fresher and smarter team & invest more budget if she's gonna be independent! or Queen it's ok if you have to sign to Roc Nation or something just negotiate a good deal to have creative control
Quote from: Rags on July 30, 2020, 12:12:34 PM
Can someone PM me the link? I don't want to wait until tonight!
Me too
I think I have to sit with it some more and have the lyrics available to fully appreciate. These were instant for me tho:
Unconditional Oceans( which was my least fav snippet)
Rather Be
Borderline
Say Something
I Am More
No Tomorrow
Wow I cannot believe that the mixing of the album seems to be an issue. Literally the last thing I thought would happen. It's so crazy cuz she specifically talked about that process. It's like she has a bunch of amateurs around her. That's disappointing.

That excites me! A lot of my favorite songs from her are from that era. "Rather Be" instantly reminded me of "Sweet Nothings," for example, which is my all-time favorite song from her. Dark, yet dreamy, ethereal sounding Brandy is absolutely my favorite.
So, my honest first listen thoughts:
- Top 3: Rather Be, No Tomorrow, Lucid Dreams.
- Bottom 3: Baby Mama, High Heels, Say Something.
- Saving All My Love is a slightly confusing opener.
- I love how the songs all blend into each other
- The beat and melody changes throughout are always interesting.
- Still not entirely sure why the interludes were needed.
- Mixing/mastering IS an issue.
- First half > second half.
- Borderline definitely could have been edited down a bit. Runs a little long.
- Rather Be and No Tomorrow are the remaining single options.
- Getting a lot of Dawn vibes from this overall.
Again, no final judgments til I have a few more listens. I feel pretty mixed right now. I'm just happy she's back, finally.
I think SAML isn't moving me as much because I'm comparing it to the yt clip, but I'm glad they included bits of the very first preview to this song. It'll grow on me eventually.

omgggggg such a Sissy :dead: :plzstop: :plzstop: i been weak listening' to it lol maybe the joy of hearing' Queen on a nu album
Its EVERYTHING. See, Im kinda pissed that Brandy felt the need to hit up Hit Boy for some uptempo track for a 1st single mess. Cause I think this woulda been a perfect single and I could actually picture Chance as a feature on THIS song. Not that it needs a feature (dont get me wrong, its perfect), but Im jus sayin.
I can just imagine a music video for this. Geesh!!! Its one of the only songs on the album with a distinct melody and chorus.
ughhhhh that song is my CRUSH ooommmmmgggg

All of this. Too much going on. Its almost like she had a whole lotta shit to say and she had to pack it all in tight.
Maybe this is one of the reasons why I am not appreciating the vocals on this album. I'm focusing more on trying to wrap my head around the song structures and some of the melody choices that I cant even focus on / appreciate the vocals at all. Of course she sounds amazing on every song, but I didnt get that vocal lashing I normally get when listening to a Brandy album the 1st time. I'm focused on too many other things. lol.
Borderline is soooooo good.
She has the best voice of the industry. Period. She way elevates everything... damn gurl.

U may be right. I mean, if Brandy was to call up certain producers like Rodney or Timbaland, they would prob wanna charge her more than what Camper would. For some reason, Camper kinda gives me rookie vibes lol. At the same time, she can find other fresh producers to really give her some heat. Even Angel from the UK I wouldnt mind working/producing some tracks for her. Its not rly the label or anything for me. Its who Brandy chose to work with in the end. Maybe she had a little too much freedom, but at the same time, I want her to. Lol.
I'm glad she's back though and I hope she plans on using some of her down time (due to COVID) to start conceptualizing the next project. I've never had to 'sit with' a Brandy album ever. This is new for me. Every album has been instant.
I'm not sure if I'm 100% on board with how she approached Lucid vocally. I would've preferred it to be softer at certain parts.

Rigggght. Her vocal approach is what is killin it for me. It needed her softer tone. I've listened to it a few times and I remember the production but could never sing it back to u or even hum the melody. Its a grower for me, but I like it.

She sounds amazing and I like that she was singing in the most comfortable parts of her range here. All these songs, she should be able to comfortably sing live without lowering keys or being hesitant to hit high notes.
Lows:
Production, mixing, mastering. Song structures, lack of solid melodies and choruses. Woulda preferred a balance of Without You, Shattered Heart, I Tried kinda records mixed with the progressive sound. A lot of the songs needed some kinda editing for me.

Or maybe she kept it exactly the 5 min length it always was.
I do think it's excessively long though. The radio version will be shorter I'm sure.
I can't put my finger on what I think about this.
And that's annoying me. :dead:
this is a very strange release for me
now I know why Buddha was so ambiguous with his
assessment
I still need to listen, but will take the time for it...
just wondering when you guys say Europeans will not get this..there is a big fanbase here for twigs... I am curious to find out if it is experimental or just a chopped & screwed mixtape kind of vibe. I guess I'll find out soon

Annie, I'm not sure how to describe the album nnn. All the songs are made to flow into each other, it just all sounds kind of... messy, overall? Some songs sound clearer than others, some songs have choruses, some have weird structures.

Hey babe
Hey!
Where have you been? And what are your thoughts?
That was my thoughts.
:omgwatshappening:
Wtf
I absolutely adore Syrais voice :wub::flamebroiled:
fasdfafdsfsd asdfs
:kii:
The dehydration on the first few pages.
I'm gonna need a lyric sheet. The Brandynese on this album - she's sayin a lot and Im missin some of the lyrics - they goin ova my head.
U can definitely tell the songs that were recorded with her 2018 tone versus the ones recorded with her late 2019 / Brandy Census tone. Of course, I prefer the 2019 tone.

I still need to listen, but will take the time for it...
just wondering when you guys say Europeans will not get this..there is a big fanbase here for twigs... I am curious to find out if it is experimental or just a chopped & screwed mixtape kind of vibe. I guess I'll find out soon
Annie dear. I wanna hear your review cuz I'm confused.
:stressed:
Even though I like No tomorrow, Say Something and Unconditional Oceans, there's just something about every track that lacks something or ruins something... I've been listening all day with a few breaks for reading but I still am not floored as I wanted to be.
Rather Be is just everything. atmospheric and vibey Bran yearning for love and affection, at her best.

:flamebroiled:
GOOD OL NASTY RAW MIXES UNDER HER IMMACULATE VOCALS AND QUESTIONABLE LYRICS...
:flamebroiled:
ISSA NEW SHIFT IN MUSIC...
:flamebroiled:
GENIUS!
:gorlonfire:
Lucid Dreams is all about her struggle with mental illness and sleep deprivation, mental distress and everything else she was going through after her breakup with Ryan and the clapback era. This album is so personal, raw, and honest that's what I love the most about it. It's flawed but I almost feel like she wanted it to be to get the message across more effectively..
But I'm gonna wait til tonight to listen to the alber
From y'all comments...I'm scared. :unsure:
I already know I don't like I Am More
And I thought the High Heel snippet was a little cute..
Bran definitely has yes people around her.
I do believe this is a good representation of what's in her head versus a reflection of Camper after listening. You literally hear her through the writing.
This foxy rap entrance ackkkk

mmm
I did too, but u cant blame us
I dont mind a long song at all. One of Brandy's best song Tomorrow is 5 minutes and 20 seconds. Longer than Borderline. If that song was cut short to 3:30 seconds, I woulda been pissed. Borderline could've worked as a long song if some things were...different.
I think the problem I have is there are so many bright spots
and so much greatness, but something compromises it in the end.
I hate when you can hear how much better something could be if only...
I don't dislike this at all. I just...iono

I'm also thinking I'll love everything more when I have the lyric sheet and can follow the melodies...like how Rather Be took me some plays to get.
BUT...we as Bran Stans want to sit and read lyrics but what about the general public? :uhh:
I'm scared for my listening party tomorrow where I practically forced my friends to attend. We will be sitting with lyric sheets in hand but I don't want to have to explain what's good about every track... :dead:

And all these comments about the mixing..mastering and production etc.
Camper did NOT need to be all over this album

I have HATED all the snippets of I am whore but I am starting to like it now that I have the full. You might be surprised as the vocals are really good on it.
I really like the High Heels beat but then I hear what she's saying and especially as Bran Nu and I die of second hand embarrassment. :usuresis:
Sy'rai sounds beautiful though :blush:

This.
I didn't want camper anywhere near brandy and I've said this on several occasions on here was accused of being "messy" and a "hater" he just isn't good and damn near bombed this project if it wasn't for brandy artistic abilities. She saved it. What a joke.
the end of Unconditional Oceans and then going into Rather Be >>>

Seriously...Brandy needs a better team and some seasoned musicians to lead her. She has the vocal and emotional gift but not the creative one.
I would like to have someone like Drake (He's great at vibey ambiance music) or heck even Beyonce being a creative stakeholder in her future projects (I'm ready for the backlash :supluv:)

Is she referencing Whitney as her fairy Godmother by sampling the cartoon version fairy godmother?
It's probably to deep for my European ass to understand...

No, it was a legitimate concern/issue. Not about to fake it for anybody.
I LOVE Brandy, she's a fave...but this era just isn't what it could have been. There's an essence of greatness, but it's just not up there with her magnum opus (Afro/FM) and I blame it on production, mainly.
On a positive note, the album does sound a lot better without the interludes, Baby Mama and High Heels.
Lucid is one of her best ever.
:blessed:
I stan for Lucid GODs>>>>>>
I think people who aren't familiar with all Brandy's past albums are gonna be pleased. This is the second coming of Brandy and for that I'm so proud.
Also. ... "Say Something" is that girl. Super relatable and catchy.

I dunno. A lot of HER songs done by Camper have more structure than these songs.
To think this is the same guy that did Tamar's Love & War and Raise The Bar, Chris Brown's Lady In A Glass Dress, Mariah's Dedicated, HER's Focus, Elle Varner's Refill. I was hopeful. Now dont get me wrong. The songs arent bad at all. I think both Camper and Bran were prob trying to do a little too much. To be too different. A few of these songs seriously sound like spoken word poetry with a lil dash of melody here and there.
OVERALL IT IS A GOOD BODY OF WORK.

With that being said I have to believe that brandy orchestrated this and not him. I have a feeling
that may be the reason they fell out the first time because maybe she did'nt give him more creative
control as a producer.

I'm sorry for turning this thread about how B7 lashed into a lashing of B7.
It's just nice to be able to vent among fellow stans. I mean who else am I going to talk to about Brandy?
:stressed:
Nothing wrong with debating as long as it's not hateful towards bran. Like I said, I felt the same way about Full Moon when I first heard it. I thought it was straight garbage, both vocally and production wise. All those electronic beats, strange melodies and goofy production. But now, I hold that as some of the greatest Brandy music in her career. I think it took me a good year or two to realize that unfortunately for me. And with her being gone for so long and all of a sudden dropping B7...this edgy masterpiece ..we're like .. :shook:
B7 is going to be an emotional journey for us and for Brandy and it's just beginning. We haven't seen the last of it and I guarantee you some who hated now will later on think it's the best album she's ever done. Watch.

Very!
But seriously can someone explain the interludes to me? I might like them more if I understand the process behind it?
DEAD ASS only she could explain those cause...idk

But I agree with you and I totally believe that I will love it after a while. I always do with Brandy music when some of it doesn't catch me immediately

Kind of ready for the next 8 year wait after that...Mentally prepared

It's my hope that she releases another next year. After having to wait eight years for B7, I'd be upset if we have to wait even just two more years for another. :hmph:

Unconditional Oceans
Rather Be
Lucid Dreams
Say Something
I Am More (without the rap)
Borderline would be better if they chopped HALF the song.
No Tomorrow was perfect as an interlude.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ACK!!! I feel the same way after listening a couple times...
Unconditional Oceans and Rather Be are the most flawless on the record.
They should have been the foundation to build the entire album upon.
They have an authentically unique sound without trying to be "alt"
No Tomorrow could have been that girl with some tweaks, but I still love.
I have side-eyed all her albums since Afrodisiac but grew to love them for what they were.
I'm sure this one won't be my least favorite Brandy album by a long shot.

Full Moon was instant to me. And I was like 12 years old at the time. I loved every single song on the album instantly besides Apart and Love Wouldnt Count Me Out. But then I eventually loved them.
Everyone is diff, but this is the 1st Brandy album Im having a hard time with. I dont think my thoughts on it will change. Its her worst album.

I was 13 when that dropped and I didn't like that album at all at first. A few years later I got my whole LIFE and I've been hooked ever since.
OMG we were THAT young when Full Moon dropped? Wow that means we are close to death and I'll be damned if Brandy doesn't give us at least 7 more albums before it happens

And yeah, if she had put this album out as a 6 EP in 2018, I woulda appreciated it more.
Rather Be and Saving All My Love are the only songs with a clear melody. The rest of the songs have the melody and hooks scattered in unusual parts of each song .. which was .. a choice. Very risky. Will it pay off? This album is so different and ambitious for her. She's trying to change the game.

I'm not sure if I'm 100% on board with how she approached Lucid vocally. I would've preferred it to be softer at certain parts.
Rigggght. Her vocal approach is what is killin it for me. It needed her softer tone. I've listened to it a few times and I remember the production but could never sing it back to u or even hum the melody. Its a grower for me, but I like it.
Yeah it might've been my favorite otherwise

When I heard the Part 1, I actually liked it when it transitioned into Lucid Dreams (the underwater effect). I was impressed by that and how it flowed so smooth into that song. It made sense.
But after that, the other parts shoulda been clearer. Or just it shoulda just been one interlude as a whole that started off clear and had the bypass / filter over it towards the end leading into Lucid Dreams and call it a damn day.
I like saving all my love........

Rather be and no tomorrow are the undeniable radio hits.....easy to digest and I would bet my money on those for radio....

When I say peers, I mean she's still serving quality whether we think it's her best or not. Many of her peers projects be horrible this long in the game...
And I don't think this album is other worldly that it's better than anything her peers or the rest of the industry can do because it's not....it's cute.....I respect your opinion.
This is def going to be an album where you have to sit and appreciate each song for what it is.
It's a grower and seems she took some new risks that may be overlooked.
First listen...very difficult to judge. I know Brandy did a great job with her vocals. She really gave it her all...(but I hope this is the only camper album tbh, I need timbo/Darkchild/neptunes or musicians like the roots)
I think Say Something is my fav so far. It gives me energy. The instruments, a bit of soul, sweet vocals. Reminds me a bit somehow of Xtina back to basics, I don't know why..some hiphop influences/sample.
Rather be is one of the best tracks as well..the last part is the creativity and experimental energy i wished for. The vocals on the beat don't make sense maybe but that is exactly why I love it. A clear/bold experimental choice..(not a 'could be experimental, could be sloppy') No tomorrow has a several chill vibe but should have been an interlude.
I was surprised by I am more, the last part is a rare glimpse of what could be a lot of greatness. Like hold uppp Bran you are killin it!
Why is it 40 seconds rushing through it while that could be a full song or a real interlude. Such a nice moment that went by too fast and deserves more space.
Rather Be is the clear "single" here. Hopefully it becomes the third one...
I really love SAML. I can see why Brandy says its one of her faves.
Full Moon was trashed when it was first released but now it's a cult classic.
B7 will be the same when people parrot off the new sound.

It's soo unpolished... I see the potential but there's something off
That's how I feel about a lot of these songs. The vision & potential is there, but it needs to be pulled together better.
Love how some of her lead vocals are in ur face with some songs and on other songs like SAML, you get super pulled back leads (i gotta get used to em) and they're entrapped in this wall of SOUND
Then Unconditional Oceans is this warbly, really cool and PRETTY fucking weird airy acrobatic and emotive vocal over a video game DONKEY KONG ass knock

DESTROY ME BRANDY
I think I need to give it more spins to really judge.
These verses and choruses are blending like the vocals were added to an instrumental. Almost like when DJ's want to make remixes? Rushed sometimes, no structure and weird timing. Sometimes amazing vocals from start to finish but somehow lost because there is no real build up. Maybe if I get more familiar with the songs I get used to it. Some songs were a but too long or repetitive but the vocals are smooth. The only song I couldn't get through was Bye Bipolar.
I was pleasantly surprised by Lucid Dreams, amazing vocals!!! The beat in the beginning is distracting, I love the second part..these bass tones without a 'snap' (why desperately try to add structure if it is such a dreamy vibe?)
I loved the Unconditional Oceans snippet a bit better (song gets repetitive) but I definitely appreciate this beat! One of the best vibes. And High Heels is also quite nice (could have used Neptunes but yeah).
All my life - I get the vibe they were going for but should have been a clear vocal. I feel like her voice is amazing and it could be a great track..not just album filler to create more tracks.

I'm really proud of Brandy for taking control on this album and went into with an approach to just make music SHE loves and wasnt tryna work with hitmakers for hits to have some form of a career comeback. The fact that this is her...I gotta give her her flowers for challenging herself and taking a risk. Its not a bad album by any means. Lyrically, she's really sayin a lot. But its getting a bit lost. I think I'll use even more once I get that lyric sheet.
Honestly, she should rly add 3 more songs to this and re-release with fresh songs. So I can remove those interludes and High Heels/Baby Mama and get a complete album.
The begging of SAML was so fckin unexpected yet a perfect way to begin the album.. she lashed me guys sorry :plzstop:

Its one of the better vocals on the album for me. Human tone. A really clear tone and its one of the better mixed songs.
She is a huge fan of Frank Ocean. I hear a lot of inspiration from him all up and through.

lol but intro and outro were pointless on human too
but she tried to give an idedicate tea and its trash
It would have been better with out the bypass filter on them. It is so thick that you can barely
make out any of it. So it's pointless to have. maybe they did that to transition the tracks from
one to the next. idk
When I heard the Part 1, I actually liked it when it transitioned into Lucid Dreams (the underwater effect). I was impressed by that and how it flowed so smooth into that song. It made sense.
But after that, the other parts shoulda been clearer. Or just it shoulda just been one interlude as a whole that started off clear and had the bypass / filter over it towards the end leading into Lucid Dreams and call it a damn day.
The effect sounds heavenly
I wish she made some Lashawn reference or something. I can't really hear what she is saying and why do I hear Camp more clearly? What kind of JLO Ashanti I'm Real Murder Inc vocal production?!
:omgwatshappening:
Borderline woulda also been better if the instrumental wasnt do damn basic and flat. Like geesh!

I'm not mad at SAML... just hate how it ends and goes into Oceans... that could've been cleaner
I was actually surprised by SAML because the snippets sounded like she was complaining, but she actually made an interesting intro song. Yes a bit more knock like Who I am. I also need some more staccato vocals..not a lot of woo woossss blended into eachother.
Its one of the better vocals on the album for me. Human tone. A really clear tone and its one of the better mixed songs.
I agree it is one of the better songs. The comment about structure is more for other songs on the album.
I can't wait to hear everything myself. Somebody call Sonja to tell her we need a remastered version lol
*mastered
This bitch fckin slayed.. is it her best album? I don't know but the fact that I'm so confused about it makes me think it is .. sorry

Quote from: Checkmate Burruss on July 30, 2020, 11:57:46 AM
I use 6 tracks out of the 15. I only use 2 of the 100%...Lucid Dreams and Say Something. The other 4 have small elements that bother me. That irregular time signature switch/stutter thing that Camper often does disturbs my listening experience here. And who TF invited Bran' Nu.
I totally get it
And yes $$>>>>
I need Lucid Dreams without the beat in the first part, then it would be perfect.

These songs will continue to grow on you the more you listen and peel back the layers. It reminds me so much of my initial reaction of Full Moon. I thought it was awful ..the way she sounded and the production..but now .. smh
I thought Full Moon was terrible when I first tried to listen but it became my favorite album of all time by any artist
But that is yearssss ago when we just finished this more soft smooth NSN era. The only bop we had was Top of the world and you don't know me. I had the same problem with Whitney's My love is your love. I was used to her pretty and jazzy ballads and then Darkchild hit me with a I bow out and It's not right. And now those are my favorites. I think we can all handle a bit more experimental sounds by now?!

I haven't heard B7 yet, but maybe it'll be something people catch on to much later, too.
Camper, in my opinion, was more focused on seducing Bran less concerned about the album. Hate him.
Say Something has a flow worth "repeat". It's my favorite by far. UO, RB and IAM are my other faves.

I just listened to this album and it's Brandy's worst album to date. This is worse than Two Eleven and Two Eleven was horrible. I don't understand why she let DJ Camper handle the entire album and the mixing is just meh. I don't get it. I'm baffled. She has the money and resources to reach out to other producers.

oh he did say that? i missed it
like in what way? like too long? or vocally?
He did. He said it was too long and needed to be cut down. And Bran was like 'Yeah, I'ma look into that and shorten it". Maybe it was 7 minutes long then :kii:
:dead:
This album will be timeless she never get old .. sorry
Guys, I want Brandy to move on from this passion project, call it a personal mixtape and gather Victoria Monet, James Fauntleroy, Candice Nelson, The Neptunes, Timbaland and Kaytranada and finally make her masterpiece

and I don't think we'll get a performance this era that's as classic as this.
Yes real talk all shit gets dull after years
but 211 is fucking here to stay
its hip its brandy its trendy its deep
its soothing and she was in love
so
b7 is what i would call an artistic growth album for her
but emphasis on the growth
more writing experience
more allocating proper resources
more meetings with mya (cause sis is there mixing and mastering herself and we dont complain about her mixes)
and for the life of fucking god on earth stop fucking trying the 90s formula its noin existent now
letting any producer with an artist like yourself take over that much of the album is so 1997
stop it

Some of you people are not gonna appreciate what Brandy is doing with this album until
all the other trash artists start trying to recreate and rip off the foundation she is laying down.
Brandy is always the lab rat! :stressed:
Brave and courageous self!! :flamebroiled:

All these mumble singers over a trap beat.
Brandy is the standard!

But I'm gonna wait til tonight to listen to the alber
From y'all comments...I'm scared. :unsure:
I already know I don't like I Am More
And I thought the High Heel snippet was a little cute..
high heels is a cute song! some may like some may not...
i find it cute and i like it... not a big fan of Bran Nu's part ...i don't know about Bran Nu on that project... it's so Unexpected... my problem with Bran Nu is that she reminds me of Ray J rapping' with a female voice i'm not into Ray J's rap style..they're both waaaaay better at singing"
despite the mixing/mastering flaw, overall i really really really love this... i just take it as it is, and not tryin' to compare it with all of her album for now...of course there are thing i don't like (example these fuckin' pointless interludes, i really don't get it..if u wanna cut them fine..but at least make them audible.. why that deaf typa effect..i don't understand...)
i really love that album !
i hope we get a remastered deluxe version with 3 more tracks to make up for the interludes...

Guys, I want Brandy to move on from this passion project, call it a personal mixtape and gather Victoria Monet, James Fauntleroy, Candice Nelson, The Neptunes, Timbaland and Kaytranada and finally make her masterpiece
:stressed:
:uhh:
If this album isn't received well critically at the least I don't see Brandy coming back for a LONG time.
If Queen knows what's better for her, she needs to continue creating and move on so people can forget quicker... letting it linger ain't gonna do her no justice... I'm telling you a short film video of Oceans and Rather Be giving BUDGET and just move on sis!
Yeah but she doesn't seem to be that kind of artist. Highly sensitive about her craft and easily discouraged. I just want her to win and stay consistent.
She did it with Afrodisiac! And she produced one of her best albums in that crunch time... she got it in her, she just needs to fire her current team and get fresh creatives on her side

Yeah but that was a different time for her. She was coming off of a platinum album with Full Moon.
Atlantic was a major push for her and she 2 more albums to push out under contract.
There wasn't so much a stake then because she was at her peak commercially and critically.
I think Brandy is just over the industry. She loves music. Would love for her to be more consistent but it is a business.

I don't understand why she let DJ Camper handle the entire album and the mixing is just meh. I don't get it. I'm baffled. She has the money and resources to reach out to other producers. Like what the fuck?
Did she not speak to you one day or something and you're holding a grudge? Literally everything you say about her is so negative these days.

Maybe I'm not fair because I've been overdosing on Lemonade, Afro, FM, Born to die, Channel Orange, FKA Twiggy...We all want brave, courageous and new sounds but production is a 🏕 and not the ritz. Brandy is the vocal bible, she gave it her all.

B7 is art. I'm happy with this unfiltered version of Brandy. She's tossed the rule book and is doing wtf she wants.
And yeah, my appreciation grows with each listen. You gotta listen a couple of times and you must use headphones.

I already have a copy coming from her online store and a vinyl.
Omg it was just released on my Apple Music now and I'm kind of living... the quality is more crisp than the download I had before
Unconditional Oceans is 🤯
lucid dreams is now 😍
im so glad I'm getting into it now
Ugh I really wish they would've added the lyrics to Apple Music. Why isn't her team on it?!? I mean how hard can it be to fill out all the details for a track on streaming platforms?

I liked the "never sang in a group with some other chicks" line. It was short and cute.
Oh wait Ghan :ohwow:

Quote from: Fuck it! on July 30, 2020, 04:08:07 PM
I just listened to this album and it's Brandy's worst album to date. This is worse than Two Eleven and Two Eleven was horrible. I don't understand why she let DJ Camper handle the entire album and the mixing is just meh. I don't get it. I'm baffled. She has the money and resources to reach out to other producers. Like what the fuck?
sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
whoa I still gotta listen
WOW!! I just heard "Bye Bipolar". Such an emotional song. This is the type of song she could sing at an award show and get a standing ovation.
So I won't say anything about the mixing quality because I'm only listening to the download links. However, I do like the content of the album. Every artist has or wants to have a dark/expressive album. I'm happy Ghan got hers out the way. The only feedback I would have that sort of bothers me is that I feel there are parts in songs where the productions takes an unnecessary turn. It's almost like Camper was trying TOO HARD to be innovative and there were moments in songs where I FINALLY caught the melody/Rythm and as soon as I did, the beat takes another change. There are moments in some songs where I feel the keys don't belong and/or are just off.
overall, still loving it. That would be my ONLY feedback so far. My thoughts may change when I hear a total HQ via iTunes tonight but...yea. On some of these tracks, less would've been a lot more.
Good or bad, Queen stood in her mess and didn't allow herself to be swayed by anyone. That's honestly big for her.
The album is an acquired taste for sure, but this also her first time doing it independently. If anything this era will be a huge learning experience for her.
I just hope it inspires her to keep creating music and exploring her art. No more long ass breaks.

!!! Proud of her. Need a new project sooner than later.
It's definitely not everyone's cup of tea. I am loving it, though. It feels super honest and is experimental in the way I've been craving from Brandy. This one just hits different.
These are my reactions that I typed in real time as I was listening nn
Saving All My Love
Intro is amazing
Second verse is disgusting. It sounds like she's slobbering. Enunciate sis. Mumbling is only cute when there's a pretty melody. All these random lyrics and punch ins and then to not be able to really make it out?
Your love, your love, your love, your love repeating was a cute moment.
This "youuuuu" at the end ?????
No replay value at all. It's just not a song to me. It has a beat, and lyrics, but it's not a song to me. Trash.
Unconditional Oceans
Mix is off yikes. Snare is loud as fuck, she sounds underneath the beat.
Wait. Oceans. Is she under water.
This PLUCK sound is everything.
Not crazy about this like everyone else. It has replay value though, it actually sounds like a song.
Lucid Dreams
These chords are beautiful. Love this vibe.
FUCK this beat is perfect I wishhhhh the lyrics had a structure.
This random high note that keeps popping out isnt it. Nnnn HEEee!
Overall I like this one. It does sound like you're floating in a dream especially the part before the second verse. The song was successful in making me FEEL what it was about.
Borderline
Standout.
Love the clear chorus. The beat is perfect to me as is, y'all crazy
I don't like when she starts with the futbaw voice.
Okkkhigh note run!!!!
No Tomorrow
I'm boppinggggggddddjdjd
this FLOW Dbbg
ACKKKK
Yessssss first verse
This BOP I'm snapping and ticking my ass
The repetitive nature works for me because the melody is infectious enough to not get tired of it. it deserves to be repeated as such.
Yessssss synth at the end
Say Something
ok, intro giving me Like This vibes
Aaackkkkkkk
KNOCK. Yes rasp!!!
fdd
Ohhhhhh yes piano softening out this hard ass approach of the first verse
OMG what's going on in the background of the second verse. YES CAMPER.
She is delivering this vocal in the verses I'm weakkk. Fav so far.
Talk back! take a bath!
Say Something is ITTTTTTTTT.
I Am More
nervous ....
Ad libsssss come thruuu
This Apart FEEL
Ack percussion midway thru the second verse.
Come on SOULLL
Omg djdjdjdjdj djdjdj she is SINGING. This is THEE vocal of the album so far. THIS is tastefully and strategically experimental. I had high hopes for this and loved the snippet and I am the fuck satisfied. Shit.
Actual fav now.
High Heels
djdjdj these adlibs Syrai about to drag Brandy
My. Jaw. Dropped. @ bippity boppity boo :uhh:
Hmmmm. This isn't as bad as y'all made it seem. I mean Bran Nu can go to hell but there's something very ..... I can't put my finger on it. It's very dark, that synth is sinister. But they sound so ... sweet. It's reminding me of some Kiley Dean or Illumeci mess.
Baby Mama.
Listening to it with the album, it makes sense but not crazy about her.
Love Again.
Cool song. Skip.
Had it not been a single, I would be praising the first listen but only against the album. When I heard it on the radio as a stand-alone, I was like meh. But On the album, it's one of the better songs.
Bye Bipolar
oh she doing her gooooood singingggg
This is a really good song.
ACKKKDDDD towards the end Ssinngggggg.
Ohhh ddddthis comedic touch at the end giving me an Erykah/Bey tea :dead:
Guys I don't have the mixing issue in my Apple Music official release. I had it in the downloaded leak version though
and to those of you not feeling B7 (like I was a few pages ago). Wait until you have the official release and give it time!
im literally living right now!!!
Def need a translator or lyrics typed up. I dont know what this album is about.
My Top 5 in order
I Am More
Say Something
No Tomorrow
Borderline
Unconditional Oceans
Its a nice alb'
Not rlly hearin tha "horrible"....
High heels can he kept tho

I'm gonna listen again when the HQ drops tonight.
I listened to it in my car and it sounded really muddled.
It just wasn't CRISP.
is that a mix/mastering thing?
There are things I love and hate.
It's not what I was expecting from her, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I just have to step outside of my expectations and give it a fair listen.
This album has sort of an unconventional Frank Ocean vibe to it, and I loved 'Blonde'. So now i'm listening with more of an open mind I'm using a bit more.

How does it sound on Apple Music? The only songs that sound mixed are the ones that have been released
I AM MORE is everyyyythingggggggggggggg. I love the rap and the way she shaded the fuvk outta Beyonce lmao
Get into it GWORLS and fall tf in LINE.
King Bitch...original since 94, ask a snitch.....never catch me in a group singing with some other chicks
:plzstop:
When the hive gets wind of that line shdjndndjfjdjdjfjf Go off, Bran! Mark your territory :dead:
n
I love how there is no big harmony arrangement on say something.
This just proves how magical her tone is because the lil touch of
harmonies she did add on the ending of the hook and 3rd pre hook
just served as a lil color but weren't exactly needed. It could have
been all melody and still dope.
im waiting till the album drops at 12 to get innnnn

and to those of you not feeling B7 (like I was a few pages ago). Wait until you have the official release and give it time!

Okay good I'm just gonna have to wait and see, other than that the album is amazing but No Tomorrow should have stayed an interlude like I TOLD Y'ALL

Brandy just said Borderline challenged her vocally. Am I the only one not hearing the challenge? Do y'all think the song is complex vocally?
:ohwow:
This album will have to grow on me it's like a different kind of r & b brandy took a BIG risk just like she did with full moon.
On my 6th listen. This just might be my favorite Brandy album.

:ohwow:
It could have challenged her to NOT do as much vocally...
That in itself is a challenge for a vocal beast like Brandy.
I can hear the challenge myself because she could've done
so many other things and took so many other vocal routes
but she didn't and honestly the song didn't need all of that
Because every song doesn't need to be over sung, so I get what she's saying.
The album is ok
This album is really UNEVEN. The second half isn't very solid tbh
Opinion may change when I get to listen to the HQ version but I didn't LOVE anything outside of Rather Be & Borderline.
I don't like High Heels or I Am More. Everything else I can grow to love

That snd some of her vocal choices on the album..it's different this time around. Dunno how to feel
Yeah Say Something is definitely one of the best songs on the album.
Seems like the album is truly mellow and not giving vocals like we're used to from her. The way she sang some of the songs are truly different and left field.
I still cannot with her going in on Ryan. :plzstop:

I've always wondered why Brandy connects to certain songs over others. It seems like the emotional connection is more important than the commercial viability and she is unable to be objective.
The more and more I listen guys, the songs are starting to sound better. The only perfectly structured song for me on the album is Unconditional Oceans and maybe Rather Be. All the other songs could've been edited a bit. I find something wrong with them. But overall, I'm getting into it more. Lucid Dreams gets better each listen. Say Something too. High Heels will never grow on me.
Based on that Live Stream though guys, people were really going UP for Tomorrow. I really think it has good potential to be a single if it was remixed and maybe be a male duet w/ Usher. I can hear it so well.
wow yall really hate high heels huh?

Its one of my least faves, but its growing on me. Its not a bad song - its just missing something, but I cant put my finger on it. The production / instrumental itself coulda been better, imo. Something about it sounds unfinished and cheap.

Between the mixing and mastering, weird vocals habits, interesting lyrics choices and the shade...the album is not good.
Borderline is a STANDOUT.
It's just not the song some were hoping for. Everything isn't a knock.
The song structures are also very different purposely. May just take some time getting used to.
Said was same about Full Moon.
GET MAD! TAKE A BATH
Stomp ... Stomp ... Stomp ... Stomp

It's crazy because the album is so weird and I can see these not being my favorite Brandy songs but its up there with her magnum opus albums. It works so well as an album.
I AM More to High Heels to Baby Mama make sense though

Y'all connecting with this album emotionally?
Every Brandy album has brought me to tears in some way.
For this one to be so personal it doesn't for some reason.
I dont get why people are comparing this album to Full Moon. This is nowhere close to Full Moon. And even if the album grows on you to where u end up loving it, it will NEVER compare to Full Moon. Just because songs like What About Us and Can We were a bit edgy and different - its not the same as lack of melody and strong choruses. All those things were present - just the beats/sound was a bit more unique on a few songs.
And not everybody disliked Full Moon or didnt get it on 1st listen. I sure didnt.
I see a lot of "same was said about Full Moon" but was it? I know FM was different than a lot of other things sonically but ya'll are saying EVERYTHING negative thats being said about B7 was said about FM. And Im like..was it..werent yall like 10? Or are there articles that support this
Brandy may just gain a new set of fans and lose the BSource ones.
Because this album is EVERYTHING

You can not enjoy the album and still not be disrespectful though. I don't believe this to be her strongest work and I strongly doubt she was shading Bey but of course that's what people want to perceive it as because DRAMA! I just want to honor her journey. This album may be a dub, but a least she's still here and still respected by many.

I still believe it was the promotion and follow thru with Full Moon, not so much the sound
this .... it's a totally different animal. I mean, I get what Camper was tryna do, I guess ...

Its too personal. Her most personal. And to be honest, her enunciation on this album is her worst and even what u can make out, she's talkin about multiple topics on the same song (like SAML). So I find myself sometimes trying to decipher what she is really saying.

Full Moon wasn't favorable with critics when it first came out.
Funny because then people felt like Brandy's voice was drowned out by the heavy production.
B7 her voice stands out over the minimalist vibe.

Right. I have nooo clue where this is coming from. And if they didnt like Full Moon when they first hrd the album, well sure ya asses didn't. U were 10 years old. :kii: Ur a full grown adult now that know R&B music and music period. Let's not compare the two at all. Cause the issues with B7 are not the same "issues" y'all had with Full Moon when y'all were in elementary school.

I get that but thats not whats happening here. Did the FANS not favor Full Moon? I remember yall loving FUll Moon (song) and being blown away with WAU especially the video. Thats not whats happening here with Baby Mama and Border, and the fans' reception.
We dont know what the critics think of B7 yet
FM had very mixed reviews when it was released. It has a 60 Metascore. Rolling Stone referred to it As "frantic, faceless fake-sexy R&B."
I think it was unappreciated because it was nothing like the popular sound of the time.
Almost 20 years later, I'm sure those reviewers are eating their words.
I was only 13 when FM was released. It took me yeeeears to appreciate it. I didn't know any better. The radio was king back then and they controlled what was "popular". There was no social media at the time, so I don't know what the fans thought.
I'm not comparing B7 to ANY of Brans previous works but I get what people are saying.

She's honestly doing too much lyrically. Victoria Monet came thru and just wrote a simple song for Bran and focused more on melody. Some of the other songs are just spoken word vomit blended w/ melodies and harmonies. Even the chorus for No Tomorrow is perfect, and then the verses are like :uhh:

There are many great albums that critics dont like. Countless even. We're not talkin about critics. We're talkin about fans. And Brandy fans loved Full Moon when the album was released. Not as much as NSN, but they did at the time. The album just didnt get as much appreciation because the era was so short lived.

The critics! :kii: The critics also gave her debut album and NSN subpar reviews. Brandy's only really critically acclaimed album was Afrodisiac. What do the FANS think? Thats what matters. Not the opinion of some Rolling Stone music reviewer / editor.

Is it Full Moon pt. 2
:gorlonfire:
Just because Full Moon didn't immediately register for everyone automatically doesn't mean that the same situation is happening now. That MAY happen (I won't say it won't, though I highly doubt it).
I still need to listen to the spotify version a few times to really come with a solid conclusion.
I think the fans who emotionally resonate with the album will enjoy it.

Well a lot of songs on 2/11 I liked immediately and don't even revisit now (except slower and Do You Know). Some things you really have to live with and others are just so straight forward they resonate a lot quicker.
But that's not to be dismissive of the folks who don't like it, I just don't want to be swayed by people's first impressions especially considering how experimental this album apparently is.

The saddest part for me is that I'll never be able to happily sing along to this.
I honestly believe this is Brandy's first attempt at the Independent route and it's an adjustment after signing with majors and having major distribution deals, but I had so much faith in Camper. I don't believe he's necessarily the producer to give Brandy that alt R&B they so were so passionate about. But again, I've yet to hear it in its full quality.

My worry is that in these times you have to grab people immediately. You can't really afford to let people get used to an album because music moves so quickly. Before streaming and you paid for an album you tried to get your money's worth. Now if I'm paying 10.00 a month for unlimited music and album has to grab me right away or I'm moving on. I have too much access to music to devote too much time to something I'm not really enjoying. For Brandy I'll give it more effort but other listeners won't be as patient.
She's clearly singing about a toxic and co-dependent relationship.

I went up for Two Eleven initially but I may only pull out 3 songs from the album nowadays. It is very stuck in 2012 IMO. I've only heard snippets but B7 DOES sound like something I would come back to.

She probably won't release again for a while

No emotional connection because you just don't like it or because you can't relate her experience?
I think that's a reach. The general consensus so far has been that it's super cohesive.
But to each their own. You're entitled to your opinion.
Quote from: CREAM. on July 30, 2020, 10:37:28 PM

I keep thinking the opposite somehow!
But it's just wishful. Knowing all the songs she has recorded over 8 years and we get these. I want to think these are the "experimental" batch that she wants to get out there and she'll have some traditional Brandy coming within a year for the conservative Brandy gors
I actually said that before "Rather Be" came out, but now look at the material.
"Need you to feel what I feel and my feelings don't lie, it's why I cry"
I mean if you know anything about being in relationships with unemotionally unavailable people..you can definitely relate to these lyrics.
Again to each their own.

I think she needs practice and guidance. For example, there were a few lines in the original or early version of BM that were replaced by worse lines. I don't know who was responsible for that, but....
...and these raps
A for ambition but this alb' needed songwriters.
And it's crazy to say that because Brandy wrote one of my Top 3-5ish songs, Follow Me :dead:

This album is very scatter brained.
It's interesting how Brandy says she's a body of work girl but in the listening party says she doesn't put much into the track listing other than listening to how the songs ends. :-/
I always believed bran could be a "creative" but she's a vocalist that needs a machine or creative team to lead her.
Some of you are fucking DISGUSTING on here. You can dislike an album without disrespecting an artist. Especially on their own fucking fan board. Let me log off and enjoy this album some more minus the negativity. Just WOW.

WHO CARES. They did the same thing to Solange "When I Get Home" and that album is amazing. I want real music and works of art, something that challenges her peers and music listeners...not just here today and gone tomorrow. If Bran didn't do anything else...she created a new sound and challenged her self. This doesn't sound like anything out and she has never sung this way.

I was about to say, but I didnt even bother. There's no comparison.
:feelinmyself: "No Tomorrow" BITCH....
that song >>>>
Honestly though, overall, I dont dislike the album like some do. I like it. It could've def been better. Every single song aside from 1 or 2 could've been edited in some way to improve it. I've never experienced this with a Brandy album before.
I was expecting a vocal lashing like "Plan B"
I just don't get it

I think it's fair to remember this is Ghan's first indie mess.
Im taking this project as a collection of new songs to vibe to. Doesn't have to be her best to date. But it's new music ...it's a vibe and I'll take it as that.
I'm so proud of her.
So you don't like the alb
I have not really listened to the album in a deeply way but that's why I wanted Camper AWAY from her...
Brandy used to work with Darkchild or Timbaland or Mike City who put a lot of stress and energy into DETAILS. Camper is just BLAND and BASIC. So many things could have been BETTER if he focused into details a little more.
It's so RAW. And her previous efforts were so polished.
I can understand why some die hard Brandy stans would be disappointed.
The regular Brandy fans won't be really bothered.
But WHEW! I'm enjoying the little previews.

this doesnt sound the same as the final version?
it had a dreamy feel in the snippet here
B7 is the unreleased compilation we've been waiting for & I applaud her for going the indie route b/c I'm sure it's difficult as much as it is liberating... just hope she's learns all the lessons and grow moving forward
cant wait to hear this album on Tidal
I love the production and her voice is so beautiful
all the mumbling and weird phrasing is not really bothering me

QuoteBR: Beautiful. Were there any songs that almost didn't make it on B7?
B: Yes. There was a song, it's my daughter's favourite song, called "Rather Be." It's a mid-slow song and it's beautiful—it almost didn't make the album. I would have been so disappointed because, from my daughter to DJ Camper, who produced it, anyone that heard it, they were calling it an air quotes "Brandy Song." I didn't buy into that, but it really is. Victoria Monét wrote it and she writes a lot of songs for Ariana Grande, and Tonio Dickson, who writes a lot with Babyface and Toni Braxton. When you have those kinds of people writing the song with you, you don't leave [it] off of the album [laughs].
Glad it did make it. Was one of the last songs she recorded I heard. Imagine if Victoria was on board from the very beginning.

That part is still in the song but its so drowned out by other production that it takes away...ugh I do wish it was still an interlude and simple as this b/c the song itself is kinda lackluster
The transition between Borderline and No Tomorrow using tubular bells...
Mix that shit in a proper way from the left to the right ear. DUH.

Quote"Rather Be." It's a mid-slow song and it's beautiful—it almost didn't make the album.

I'm sorry but Bran doesn't need full creative control over her projects. :dead:
I love that she's speaking her truth but....

"Rather Be" is so timeless. She should've did more songs with Victoria. Bran's songwriting is...out there. This was a big change for her though so I admire that.
NOW THIS!!!! I would've scrapped the rest of the album or reworked most of it once Victoria cane in the picture... she did what the fuck she had to do
Check this out. Verzuz / BeatRoute Interview:
QuoteBR: Beautiful. Were there any songs that almost didn't make it on B7?
B: Yes. There was a song, it's my daughter's favourite song, called "Rather Be." It's a mid-slow song and it's beautiful—it almost didn't make the album. I would have been so disappointed because, from my daughter to DJ Camper, who produced it, anyone that heard it, they were calling it an air quotes "Brandy Song." I didn't buy into that, but it really is. Victoria Monét wrote it and she writes a lot of songs for Ariana Grande, and Tonio Dickson, who writes a lot with Babyface and Toni Braxton. When you have those kinds of people writing the song with you, you don't leave [it] off of the album [laughs].
Glad it did make it. Was one of the last songs she recorded I heard. Imagine if Victoria was on board from the very beginning.
Why would Rather Be almost not make it and she has almost if not all control over the album??? :uhh: :uhh:
Bran wyd

If the best song on the album almost didn't make the cut imagine what songs were cut out and replaced with the ones we got.

Quote from: BORderline on July 30, 2020, 11:08:33 PM
I have not really listened to the album in a deeply way but that's why I wanted Camper AWAY from her...
Brandy used to work with Darkchild or Timbaland or Mike City who put a lot of stress and energy into DETAILS. Camper is just BLAND and BASIC. So many things could have been BETTER if he focused into details a little more.
It's so RAW. And her previous efforts were so polished.
I can understand why some die hard Brandy stans would be disappointed.
The regular Brandy fans won't be really bothered.
But WHEW! I'm enjoying the little previews.
Is the CD not out over there yet? It'll be out here in 30 mins I assume you had it for a while now

I just read the whole interview and she spoke on what I suspected. This album is so different because so many people have literally jacked the sound she created and she was trying to find her place again.

If it was intentionally RAW it wouldn't bother me as much, but since all of Camper's works sounds unfinished it just shows that he's lazy/unskilled. And for Brandy given the standard she's set for herself, that's unacceptable, at least to me. I can get down with weird song structure and strange lyrics, but make it sound good at least!

Im trying to decipher if she meant that it almost didnt make the album because it was recorded close to the deadline of the album being submitted and getting everything cleared in time. It's gotta be that. Cause if its that she purposely chose to leave it off until convinced otherwise, yeah, perhaps Black Barbie, Follow Your Heart, and a few other songs could replaced songs like High Heels.

I thought that at first but she specifically said "she didn't see that" referring to what other people were saying about it being a Brandy record. It could've been both though

Yeah I think another board would do. Must of these girls aren't Brandy fans but keep the general section going. Like the literally drag her like Monica now. It's so unpleasant and just not good energy.
I don't know if ya ever heard the early version of Borderline that leaked but it's wayyyy better than the final version
My issue is with the enunciation. It's hard to follow what some of the songs are actually about. I can't wait to read the lyrics. But I honestly feel she could pull off a few singles from this album with the right visuals.

B7 is the unreleased compilation we've been waiting for & I applaud her for going the indie route b/c I'm sure it's difficult as much as it is liberating... just hope she's learns all the lessons and grow moving forward
This is what's making me think I'm going to love the album. It's not released in my time zone just yet. Reading throughout this thread, I just can't wait to hear it for myself. :plzstop:

That's not what she meant because u gotta think the album has been done before quarantine and w/ a song like Rather Be, you wait for that mf to clear and put it on the album no exceptions.
Yessss I need a deluxe version fr w/ those songs.
LMAOOOO I already know if The Neptunes sessions ever leaked we're gonna be PISSED lmaooo... it's probably gonna be like how the Timbo sessions were for Human :plzstop:
Quote from: Camo on July 30, 2020, 10:45:47 PM
This album is very scatter brained.
It's interesting how Brandy says she's a body of work girl but in the listening party says she doesn't put much into the track listing other than listening to how the songs ends. :-/
I always believed bran could be a "creative" but she's a vocalist that needs a machine or creative team to lead her.
That comment stuck out to me too. I was highly disappointed in her response saying she doesn't really put much effort into track listing. I was very surprised like ummmm so how do you tell a story with your album to ensure it's cohesive?
Comment really caught me off guard and I'm sure she wish she could answer that differently. Didn't look good. I love my girl and she will always be my favorite artist ever but that comment surprised me.
If she sang Bye Bipolar live it would be amazing

btw i dont think she was shading "say something"
looks like she was giving a "this song speaks for itself" tea
there's no way she could be shading it.
there would be no reason for her to put a song on the album if she doesn't like it.

This tells me that there are SO many tracks that are BEAST of songs that don't make her albums. I'm sure that happens with all artist but I have a feeling Brandy left off some much better songs off b7 for high heels, BM, All my life 1-3.

YESS even the fact that she reworks so many parts of the song that already sound good... like that SAML demo I felt that shit but the final its like she pulls back with all them stacks and one low note ugh
Yeah. I have a feeling this is gonna be my fav Ghan album, judging by the taste level of some of the people I've observed here. Especially the girls who stay on the quote buttons of people who love the material. Really can't trust the opinion of someone who thinks that the Sugababes have ever made one single solitary decent song.
What's crazy is I'm not even a gorl that really pays attention to what's mixed or mastered properly :dead:
I couldn't careless. I'm just a production person..I know what sounds good to ME
But it's like blatantly obvious on this album with certain songs aren't properly serving.
And I don't like weird song structuring
Some of her placements are kinda random
In conjunction with Pamper's tired...monotone production
I'm not fully tapped in like how I want to be
It's midnight! The album is out NOW

SING GIRL :uhh:
Finished with my first full listen. Thoroughly pleased with this album.
I could do without SAML and High Heels but everything else is A1 for me. Worth the wait.
That's why I knew I would need more listens in the end

My godddddddd No Tomorrow.... lord
Very strong opener with Saving All My Love! :wub: There are some interesting soundscapes on this album. It's really unlike her previous albums, and that's not a bad thing. A part of me feels like it was the album I was waiting for from her. I just wish there were more uptempo songs to round everything out. But it's still such a heavenly album. :plzstop:
I like it more than Two Eleven, it rivaling Afrodisiac as being my favorite Brandy album. I think this will be a grower for a lot of people. I could see how someone could miss the magic in the album. This is wonderful! I just wish it was longer, honestly. Why is there not a deluxe edition? :stressed:

That's exactly what came to mind for me. It almost sounds like it was interpolated a bit.
This album is masterfully crafted. It feels purposeful everywhere. It's so musical. I'm tired af so I know it hasn't really hit me but I think I'm blown away. I know I'm proud. The only thing that's off for me is parts of No Tomorrow. But whatever.
Love you Brandy.
the lyrics really helped me make sense of Lucid and Unconditional

Thats not what some of us were saying. We're saying we couldnt appreciate the vocal moments because some songs we were focusing more on the production, lyrics and song structure.
So B7 is her best album since Afro to me.
This was a trippy experience but I think that was the POINT. I genuinely love every song except High Heels.
I'm so damn proud of this girl. This is beautiful.
I AM MOREEEEEEEEE
:flamebroiled:
Now that I have the lyrics perched, I can kinda focus more on her vocal delivery and I will say this album she's using her voice is very different ways which is dope. The way she dips in and out of different tones on Unconditional Oceans. Amazing!

resonates....my chest bitch
The last song...this was a ride! I'm sad it ended...I'm so proud of Bran! I'm listening from the download from her site, so I have to listen to the songs one by one. I'd imagine it'll sound better naturally transitioning from song to song.
Just listened through. First impressions is bby ma and love again don't sound right in the context of the album (but it could be bc I'm so used to hearing them). Bye Bipolar sounds like a Broadway musical song. I actually like High Heels, a lot, and the rapping on both songs works for me.
This is very different and obviously gonna take some repeated listens to digest. Half of me is repulsed and the other half feels like this might be revolutionary. I'm guessing the more I listen the more it'll trend toward the latter. I've been wanting something different from her, and she definitely did that.
There's stuff I don't like or feels out of place but I'm gonna try to give it time to settle before ruling out songs.
I tentatively accept 🥚, with more to likely follow.
Still hate Pampa tho :lopsided:

"Rather Be" is so timeless. She should've did more songs with Victoria. Bran's songwriting is...out there. This was a big change for her though so I admire that.
NOW THIS!!!! I would've scrapped the rest of the album or reworked most of it once Victoria cane in the picture... she did what the fuck she had to do
Check this out. Verzuz / BeatRoute Interview:
QuoteBR: Beautiful. Were there any songs that almost didn't make it on B7?
B: Yes. There was a song, it's my daughter's favourite song, called "Rather Be." It's a mid-slow song and it's beautiful—it almost didn't make the album. I would have been so disappointed because, from my daughter to DJ Camper, who produced it, anyone that heard it, they were calling it an air quotes "Brandy Song." I didn't buy into that, but it really is. Victoria Monét wrote it and she writes a lot of songs for Ariana Grande, and Tonio Dickson, who writes a lot with Babyface and Toni Braxton. When you have those kinds of people writing the song with you, you don't leave [it] off of the album [laughs].
Glad it did make it. Was one of the last songs she recorded I heard. Imagine if Victoria was on board from the very beginning.
One of The best songs of her career

Broke my heart :melmel:
I'm about to finish my second full listen of the album
Stan bias aside, I think I'd give this album a 7.7-8/10. Vocally and lyrically, this is one of her best projects to date but I do think the production on some tracks could've used some more oomph and could've been more polished. Maybe it'll grow on me but after 2 listens, I still find the production of SAML to be grating :dead: I do love the lyrics and vocals on SAML tho
Also, Baby Mama sounds much better as an album track rather than a lead single. I didn't really use when Brandy released it a couple months ago but I like it when listening to the album in full here
As of right now, here are my top 3 tracks (in no order):
- Lucid Dreams
- Unconditional Oceans
- Say Something

there would be no reason for her to put a song on the album if she doesn't like it.

The mixing is awful on Spotify too
fuckk outta here
"oceans" sounds so bad wtf
such a good song
this shit is disheartening af
I see what you mean with the mixing.
It sounds muddy? almost
Even on Lucid GOD when she sings "needed you...too" it sounds so sharp and distorted in one part
Camper or whoever mixed this could have done better there
Reading these Lucid Dreams lyrics. Whew! Is it Frank Ocean??
I will say that SAML is a bit too long for my taste, and wish it was sliced a bit to add more length to another song...still a good song imo.
I think what I love the most about this album is what I love about Brandy overall. I KNOW I'm gonna be dissecting and finding new stuff for YEARS. It's like deconstructing a complex math equation. It's so trippy and unorthodox. It never goes where you think it's gonna go. I LOVE that.

Let's all admit the album takes a few listens. It's too abstract to just get in one listen. But....it's a fucking masterpiece. 😩
I only need a one round mess...I honestly am having a hard time finding the uproar from early listeners :dead:

The album has so much potential but God is in the details.
Man oh Man...
The album really feels like a dive into BRANDY. In the most intimate of ways. There's so many moods and spaces she created with B7. Its a lot to take in at once tbh! Her vocals are so multidimensional , that it really takes a few listens to really PEEL back all that's happening on the album .
Baybeeeeee...! SCHIZOdy really pulled all the gorls out for the album: BRocka, Baby Bran, UnreleasedBran, HumanDy, Bran Nu sbdddddb ack! :dead:
But I love the journey she takes us on. This album is ART. She really threw the rule book out for what it takes to create a "song". A lot of innovation on this; as always with Queen. I love that this album is a true, independent and authentic feel of Brandy. That alone makes it timeless. B7 indeed.
Although the album lacks a bit of a "traditional" commercial feel to it; IMO— I still think she has a few songs on the album that could be huge singles for her, and are signature:
Borderline is a damn smash. This record is timeless to me :plzstop:
My God; this might be my fav mess atm :gorlonfire:
Rather Be is an instant Urban AC smash ; it's such a beautiful record. So soothing and groovy.
Say Something is amaaaaazing ; I could see this being a single too
I Am More is siiiiiiiiiickening ; definitely should be a single :gorlonfire:
I really LOVE this album ; just off three run-throughs.
And Baby Mama and Love Again still fit beautifully on B7.
Unconditional Oceans may be another fav of mine too; it's the Donkey Kong KNOCK, for me..! :stressed:
Right now; The ones that really LASHED me :
Unconditional Oceans
Rather Be
Lucid Dreams
Borderline
Say Something
I Am More
Bye BiPolar
I particularly love how beautiful Bran and Syrai sound on High Heels— They sound so sick together
Brandy should be so proud . This album is brave, vulnerable , unique , risky , and of course a vocal masterpiece. The way she gave us just about every flavor and layer of her voice on this..unreal!
So fulfilled as a fan!
I'm falling deeper and deeper in love with each listen :stressed:
I haven't even seen the video yet...

- TONE
- the call and response vocals
- ghost vocals

The album really feels like a dive into BRANDY. In the most intimate of ways. There's so many moods and spaces she created with B7. Its a lot to take in at once tbh! Her vocals are so multidimensional , that it really takes a few listens to really PEEL back all that's happening on the album .
Baybeeeeee...! SCHIZOdy really pulled all the gorls out for the album: BRocka, Baby Bran, UnreleasedBran, HumanDy, Bran Nu sbdddddb ack! :dead:
But I love the journey she takes us on. This album is ART. She really threw the rule book out for what it takes to create a "song". A lot of innovation on this; as always with Queen. I love that this album is a true, independent and authentic feel of Brandy. That alone makes it timeless. B7 indeed.
Although the album lacks a bit of a "traditional" commercial feel to it; IMO— I still think she has a few songs on the album that could be huge singles for her, and are signature:
Borderline is a damn smash. This record is timeless to me :plzstop:

That "take what I can baby" really hit me, like she was just accepting what she could and didn't know her worth
That part hit me hard. I wish this fucking girl only knew :stressed:

I may lash my Queen .. only cuz I want the best for her.. but I'll say I'm so proud of her for standing behind her release date and being confident in herself finally. I pray she holds on to this confidence and rushes another album but I'm grateful that she is back. Music just wasn't the same without my fave.
I love "Rather Be" and "Bipolar"
On "Lucid Dreams" I feel that falsetto "aaaaahhhhhh heeee" that repeats throughout the song is Syrai

No Tomorrow KNOCKS though. I do think a Kendrick Lamarr, Drake or Chris Brown feat. could be utilized on it.
This album is ART!!!
I think they waited too long for the 808's to hit on "No Tomorrow"...
should have hit sooner
I feel like I can't listen to one song without listening to the one before and after.
and I agree with others...I'm not acknowledging Baby Mama or Love Again on the alberm. Great songs on their own, but I didn't need them here.

why did this make me holler :dead:
She's #5 in all genres and #1 in R&B in France ! That's very good !
"borderline" has grown on me a bit
It's still extremely long
And the production might be lacking but it's giving me a thriller movie mess kinda
like this is MENT music
sell it Queen
Rather Be, Lucid Dreams, and Borderline are the heartbeats of this album for me. Ugh!
Very surprised no one has mentioned how Borderline gives Silent Night a bit
Love Again is much better than I remember. I couldn't get into it when it was released
high heels was good until the rap. But the rap on I am more fit well!
say something is still my fave after rather be. Borderline is third. I didn't think borderline was too long at all.
overall very cohesive album and I enjoyed it. Gonna play it all tomorrow.
I had no idea what she was saying in the first couple songs though

I'm going to be a mess all day. I'm so angry at myself for listening to the leaked version. The iTunes version sounds so DIFFERENT. It's like the leaked version was the unmastered version or something. The iTunes version is fucking AMAZING. Even High Heels sounds good as fuck. I've basically been playing non-stop since midnight. Thank you Queen.
:stressed:
So happy you enjoy the album. It's nice to see you being positive with the stuff I've seen today.

Borderline is coming for Rather Be's neck
:cmerefag:
It was my favourite from the previews. It's the perfect song to me and embodies the essence of Brandy. Tone, smooth delivery and rhythmic as fuck.
:plzstop:
Lol it's some confused folks wondering why "Bye Bipolar" is trending.

I had to take a break from the board. It was fucking DISGUSTING earlier. But it is what it is. I come here for Brandy. I wouldn't let other persons negativity influence how I view her or her music. This album gave everything I wanted and more.

IDK y'all Apple Music/Itunes quality sounds the best to me so if you don't have it then get into the mess

U know i still don't care for that beginning run but I'm all good with the rest of the lashing. Dndnfnf she was LOSING it when this came on during the live stream
It made me really stan
whew the way I block that and the rap out
I really do love that song :stressed:
On "I am More": "Never comin off the bench playin the 6th" is a basketball analogy
The sixth man is the first person off the bench and not always necessarily held in high regard cuz at the end of the day they aren't in the starting FIVE. He's the reliable .. backup player
And she ain't dumb enough to shade Beyonce on any record :kii: if anything that line of "won't catch me singin in a group with some other chicks" would be Keisha Epps shade
:dead:
Y'all forget ole girl was in Total and they had a REAL falling out. This album is too personal to be thinking about Beyonce. Sometimes it's not always what we think
So i could be dead ass wrong and Glock is right. But i really don't see it or hear it

Its fun shade and having our silly opinions but I don't think its just Beyonce but its def some Bey shade in there. "King (B)itch" ....then she talks about being original since 94....come on now
It's sounds so much more crisp on iTunes
I don't think Brandy would reference Say My Name and shade Bey on the same album
But if she is shading her, I'm here for it

"borderline" has grown on me a bit
It's still extremely long
i love that sndndn we never get long songs from her
The 2-3 minute shit is cool for songs that give radio or radio single, but this feels defiant and is maniacal in a way i REALLY use
It's like every time you think she's done, she's like
"And ANOTHER thing, NIGGA!" 🗣🗣
This album isn't following any rules or any regular or specific song structure for sure. And i know that will turn many people off, but there's another crowd that's definitely here for this kinda weird ass shit
:plzstop:
I'm here for it
Saving all my love is one I'm frustrated over because of the mixing and her choice to completely pull back on those leads. If i met her, I'd literally ask about the previous version that was shared in the studio. I much prefer that
There are parts on this album version that are prettier and easier on the ear but it didn't come all the way together for me. I'll analyze the rest of the mess some other time but I'm still on a high

The part about her shadowy less pronounced vocals on Borderline and the way that's mixed versus her leads being so in ur face on "No tomorrow" >>>>
He wrote that EXACTLY how i was trying to articulate in the earlier thread but didn't necessarily have the language to do. I love that her delivery on most of these songs make perfect sense for me personally

these two songs have made up for all the misses since 2/11 for me
Another two to add to my tp Brandy songs of all time.

ehhhh i don't wanna spend too much time on this one, but i totally see what ur saying
I just think she should be allowed to talk her shit without it having to be "omg Beyonce! I knew it! Jealous"!
She's earned the right to talk her shit in a way that's not necessarily going at anyone. She's had an amazing career and is ABSOLUTELY an original. There's no one like her
That's facts. She can say that
I'm still a bit on the edge after this borderline breakdownT

The album is a dream for anyone who see's sound and can visualize music. It's such a sensory experience. Even the things I don't particularly like I could listen to over and over because it's so cinematic. I hear all her past and future. It's so complete!
Say Something sounds so fucking luxurious :gorlonfire:
Brandy during the live stream >>>
ssddd
"I'm a body of work kinda girl"
This is meant to be an EXPERIENCE and i think she achieved that. All these sounds and these dark ass keys toward the end of Borderline ... wow

This album is a masterpiece I'm sorry, she read theeee fvcckkk outta everyone and really touched on some personal issues. She makes so many references throughout the album, even love how it starts and ends with piano and then you have familiar horns throughout certain songs ugh my Queen.
:cheerup:
These gworls couldn't deliver like you baby
THIS! All of this! And at the end of "Bye Bipolar" she sings, "I'm saying never" which is a call back to NSN

I kinda use that she released the worst song off the album first. If your worst isn't received terribly then everything else is up hill from there. Baby Mama did what needed to be done during this pandemic. Tho it's not a buzz single after hearing the album it truly seems like that.

I love this album, some cuts stand out more than others but what a dope cohesive collection altogether. She really put her everything into it

This has to be my least fave record from her. It's not too bad but it sounds a bit undercooked :melmel:
Not only is she lashing Ryan on Bye Bipolor but also SAVING ALL MY LOVE.
She is going in on this nigga
Amazon is IT. They sent me the vinyl TODAY tooooo!
B7 looks so good next to the Full Moon and the Afrodisiac vinyl. LORDT.
Imma display these 3 bitches on my WALL.
LORD HELP ME
Who is the engineer on Unconditional Oceans?! I really wanna BOX him b/c the way I feel robbed from this masterpiece right now!!!!
I'm not WOWed over these songs, but here is a list of the ones i liked..
Unconditional Oceans
Rather Be
Borderline
No Tomorrow
Say Something
I Am More
High Heels
Baby Mama
I really don't like Saving All My Love and Bye Bipolar.
Sigh... :'(
I'm so sad. Damn! :'( :'( :'( :'(
The only song that is not hitting for me yet is SAML and High Heels (well, the rap). Even that fucking Love Again that I thought was super boring the one and only time I played it sounds good here.
The rest of the songs I really like, if not love (Say Something, Bye Bi Polar, Rather Be, Borderline are my absolute faves!!!!!!!!!!)
I think the album is beautifully crafted and I can't wait to listen in the car. I know headphones is best for this but I need to listen to it without distractions and I have a long drive to the beach tomorrow which will be perfect for that.
I can see this being in my top 3 Brandy albums, but it's still too soon to tell. It's definitely better than 2/11 and Human, by a loooooooong shot.
I was worried about people saying there were no standout moments vocally. This album is definitely minimalist in every way, but I love the restraint. Everything sounds so intentional. I love that Brandy is not relying on stacking, adlibs, runs, etc. to get her point across.
I am really, really proud of this girl!

I guess that the songs lacking a normal structure sometimes makes it hard to find the typical wow vocal moments, but NO ONE could have done something like Borderline except Brandy.

IM GONNA BE COMPLETELY HONEST. I LOST ANY AND ALL ANTICIPATION FOR THIS ALBUM. BABY MAMA WAS LATE, RATHER BE WAS UNDERWHELMING (initially), AND SO I PRETTY MUCH CANCELLED THIS ALBUM.
THIS ALBUM SLAYED FROM START TO FUCKING FINISH!!!!! THIS IS BY FAR ONE OF HER MOST COHESIVE ALBUMS!!!! IF NOT HER MOST COHESIVE!! IT GIVES ME FULLMOON DOWWWWWWWN!!!!
THE WAY EVERY SONG RIDES THE FUCK INTO THE NEXT!!!!!!
LUCID DREAMS >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
HIGH HEELS >>>>
NO TOMORROW >>>>>
UNCONDITIONAL OCEANS >>>>>
I AM >>>>>>
One thing about this album.... there are no standout tracks to me, except "I Am" and "Love Again". Nothing that jumps out as "single worthy!" It's just simply a great album, great sound, great music. "No Tomorrow" should've had a feature. I can hear her and Piss harmonizing on this!!
The sound quality doesn't match up to her other albums, that's just being completely honest and transparent, but it didn't really bother me like I thought it would. The album is just so cohesive and really takes you for a ride. We haven't heard that since Fullmoon.
Lucid Dreams is absolutely my fav though. ❤️
I wish Unconditional didn't sound so cheap still :uhh: It would be one of my faves otherwise

But if she is shading her, I'm here for it

She's shading her down

Not hearing the cheap audio y'all referring to it sounds clean on my iMac.
Same. It sounds clear as fuck to me.
As much as an perfectionist she is I doubt she'd let audio quality slip through her checklist.

The last 90 seconds of Borderline
holy shit
:gorlonfire:
It's not mixed right :dead:
y'all are still stupid I see. She is clearly not shading Bey. There is only one "reference" to Beyonce (or Destiny's Child really) when she sings say my name. The line about not being in a group with other chicks is LITERALLY the same message she conveyed in List. She isn't gonna play second fiddle to someone in her romantic relationships. It is SO obvious what she's talking about given the context of the song. Stop being messy.
Guys, I am unexpectedly IN LOVE with Borderline. I can't stop listening. Like, JESUS! :gorlonfire:

She did. It's kinda CLEAR that's what she said. Dont know why people have to do this. :melmel:
As I continue to listen to this album, she really didn't need track 11-14 AT ALL. And if it was properly polished and mixed sis would've gave us something!

I love Sy'rai though, her voice is cute... it's Bran Nu that fucks it up for me :dead:
I would agree to keep Love Again but the rest of the album don't sound as crisp like that song and it being a year old doesn't sit well with me either... regardless the last tracks of the album can go except for Bye MENT
Baby Mama is really IT. Stomping out the gate with this makes so much more sense now. I hope it's not too late for it to get another boost.

IM GONNA BE COMPLETELY HONEST. I LOST ANY AND ALL ANTICIPATION FOR THIS ALBUM. BABY MAMA WAS LATE, RATHER BE WAS UNDERWHELMING (initially), AND SO I PRETTY MUCH CANCELLED THIS ALBUM.
THIS ALBUM SLAYED FROM START TO FUCKING FINISH!!!!! THIS IS BY FAR ONE OF HER MOST COHESIVE ALBUMS!!!! IF NOT HER MOST COHESIVE!! IT GIVES ME FULLMOON DOWWWWWWWN!!!!
THE WAY EVERY SONG RIDES THE FUCK INTO THE NEXT!!!!!!
LUCID DREAMS >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
HIGH HEELS >>>>
NO TOMORROW >>>>>
UNCONDITIONAL OCEANS >>>>>
I AM >>>>>>
One thing about this album.... there are no standout tracks to me, except "I Am" and "Love Again". Nothing that jumps out as "single worthy!" It's just simply a great album, great sound, great music. "No Tomorrow" should've had a feature. I can hear her and Piss harmonizing on this!!
The sound quality doesn't match up to her other albums, that's just being completely honest and transparent, but it didn't really bother me like I thought it would. The album is just so cohesive and really takes you for a ride. We haven't heard that since Fullmoon.
Lucid Dreams is absolutely my fav though. ❤️
Biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit
YES TREY!!! I know you had lowered expectations
:gorlonfire:
The only thing I remember about high heels is the beat. I only played it once zzzzzzzzxxxxbdbd
Oh, who greenlit Bran'Nu being on the mess?

High Heels is a cute little bop
Y'all need to leave Bran Nu and her early 90s flow alone. Yes, it is a bit corny but she's still palatable. She sounds like she's genuinely having fun. I honestly have no issue with the bippity boppity boo stuff. :19k:

To me, it should've been an EP with:
SAML
Unconditional Oceans
Lucid Dreams
Borderline
No Tomorrow
I Am More
And MAYBE High Heels
The other songs don't really fit the sound for me. So yeah, an EP with these, give or take, and it should've been released 4 years ago. As an EP I could've forgiven the mixing/sound issues too. But after eight years and the talk of how this is a cohesive body of work, it's just not lining up for me. Plus I'm not hearing these "best vocals of her career" y'all keep calling out?
Glad y'all are living and I hope it grows on me but I can't help but feel pretty disappointed after all this time and anticipation :'(

Honestly this is where brandy SHOULDVE been imo. This album is an extension of afro to me and I love her in that lane. Afro is kinda my favorite album
High Heels reminds me of the perfect cross between Aaliyah and Brandy. It kinda gives the vibe she was giving with Adios and other unreleased songs from that time frame. There's some Candice Nelson/Kenisha Pratt influences..I love it so much. Tim should've co-produced :stressed:

I can understand that.
For some It's not gonna be an album ppl instantly get into. It's not microwaveable music where it's instant and you love it. You're gonna have to go slow and savor it a bit
I DO think a few uptempos would have helped balance out the album a bit.
I do also understand she didn't want that and created the album she wanted.

always good to see the indie artists going tf up

Yesss. People are SLEEPING on this. If Bran put this out about 10-15 years ago y'all would be eating this up. Not because it's dated but y'all wanted this from her at some point. If she was still doing sexy choreo and splashing around a bit like in the Afro vid...lawd :scrumptious:

I'm so glad Vonc likes it. Now that he likes it I don't care what none of y'all say. Chicagoans>>>
I listened again last night.
I like it more now. Once I got over what some of the songs could have been...I got IN.
No Tomorrow is that girl
I've been playing it on repeat. :gorlonfire:
I like the way she sounds on the verses, and I don't mind the repetition.
Lucid Dreams is beautiful.
Borderline is eery and unsettling...and I love the ending. so spacey and vibe-y.
Unconditional Oceans into Rather Be is sublime.
It's a solid album, albeit flawed.
But I'm happy.
I hope it continues to fulfill her.
Proud of Bran.
My faves
Saving
Rather Be
Borderline
Lucid
No Tomorrow
High Heels is a grower
The alb is def giving me

I don't know how you can hate « Saving All My Love »
This Track is wonderful...
Even just the intro with piano line at 0.32..
What a wonderful moment..
The lyrics, the harmonies and the end with the hippy référence 🙏
Looord !!
High Heels!💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾
@ Shuji so glad you like it I actually thought you wouldn't
I can't reply to people! :uhh:
Anyways, I love the intro to Saving All My Love. She sounds good on the song, but I can't understand what she's saying. Plus, I think there are too many harmonies in to. Also, it just all over the place to me.
Is there really no quote button? Been trying to reply to folks, but I don't see one. :uhh:
I'm loving this album collectively. It flows really well to me. This is the album I wanted her to make about 4 or 5 years ago. Better late than never I guess. A few things I don't like are the interludes. I get what they were trying to do with them metaphorically, but they seem more like interruptions. I actually love High Heels until Bran' Nu pops up. Syrai was gliding just fine and then 'Nu pops up and just fucks up the vibe. I don't know why Brandy feels the need to use this abrasive/aggressive approach when she's rapping. It's just not pleasant. If she's gonna rap I wish would keep the approach she took on "Gonna find my love" in mind. The rapping really took away from "I Am More" as well imo, but it's still one of my favs. One last thing is Brandy's reluctance to use profanity. If she doesn't want to curse that's fine but I would prefer her to just change the lyrics to make sense without the cursing instead of using some corny substitute i.e. 'snitch' instead of 'bitch' or "muh fuh' like girl... :uhh: But overall I'm loving this project. Hopefully this is sign of more things to come and I don't have to wait years and years for a new project.
Saving all my love stuttering intro 🔥🔥🔥 this full moon in Avatar state whew!!

I think she wanted to shake feathers at the end of "I am
More .. it was very intentional. In my
opinion and actually this whole album is a big "fuck you" to all her critics and perhaps, even the fans on some level. It's that R&B version of Ray Of Light by Madonna. And I'm living and wouldn't be suprised if Madonna gave Bran some positive feedback now that Brandy is with maverick.

Say something! Rather be! I am more! Lucid dreams! Bye bipolar! And I hated the saving all my love snippet but I love how they slowed it down and made it more trippy.
I can honestly say I love everything but the interludes . That was a waste of fucking space! She could have put melancholy and hate that you love me on it.
High heels and Baby mama don't belong at all.
Bipolar literally brought me to tears.

Full Moon
Afro/B7

NSN
2/11
Brandy
So yea B7 has reconstructed the trinity for me. Sorry Afro. You will always hold a special place in my heart as you made me a stan, but B7 will take it from here
:feelinmyself:
Okay I'm finally getting in
SAML - love the production, love the vocal but I really can't make out what she's saying. And when I can she's repeating phrases... a lot. I like it though.
Oceans - it's a no for me, too much going on.
Rather Be - Still love it :stressed:
Lucid Dreams - Between the snippet and intro I really thought this was gonna be one. I love the vocal but the song doesn't go anywhere.
Borderline - Beautiful song.
No Tomorrow - Yesssss bitch. The phrasing on the first verse and the way it builds >>>>
Say Something - Probably the most "single worthy", love the way she sings the verses. Kinda sounds like something that would have been ok 2/11. It's so pretty.

I Am More - it's dope, no comment on that rap..
High Heels - Syrai sounds amazing. That's all I got...
Bye Boplar - I appreciate for what it is. She's gonna slay this one love.
Overall this album is solid. But it doesn't have that one song I am living for. The melodies are kinda weak and she's sangin but there aren't many vocal "moments", granted this is my first listen though I'm sure I'll discover shit later lol.
I'm a little underwhelmed but it is what it is.

Not at all. She's independent now and I feel
like this is the album she's been wanting to do her entire career, absent a major label. I bet you a hundred bucks she wrote some of these songs many, many years ago. Or at least had the concepts for them in her mind. That's how really amazing artists are, they have so many amazing ideas in their heads that they don't get to execute fully because they are under the control of a major label. Madonna is white and has the white privilege working for her to have this freedom creatively. Brandy is attempting it as a
black female artist and I can't help but respect her
for it.

Saving all my love is one I'm frustrated over because of the mixing and her choice to completely pull back on those leads. If i met her, I'd literally ask about the previous version that was shared in the studio. I much prefer that
There are parts on this album version that are prettier and easier on the ear but it didn't come all the way together for me. I'll analyze the rest of the mess some other time but I'm still on a high

After listening to the album like 15 times since yesterday, I like it a lot now. The issues I had with different songs, I've played it so much that it doesnt annoy me that much anymore. I've just accepted it for what it is. My opinion really changed when I read thru the lyrics while listening last nite.
I can say I kinda love it now. I'm gonna sit with it for another month or so to determine if it will still be my least fave of hers.

hshsgdgggg
like..
Syrais voice is so free
she sounds immaculate
Soooo ehh
I love the ways she using her voice on this album. I also really like the vulnerability that had to go into these mental health metaphors and song titles.
Not sure if I am articulating this correctly but some of the placement of vocals and production seems really off to me. Some of the songs end really weird to me too.
I am More was a standout for me--up until that rap verse
Borderline, Unconditional Ocean, and Say Something are cool
Love Again (fuck Daniel) is the most cohesive song for me.
I need to listen to High Heels more but I think I like it--up until that rap verse. It sucks that All My Life isnt a full song. I really wanted that kinda sound a bit more.
Borderline and Lucid Dreams have grown on me the most.
BIPPITY BOPPITY BOOP!

I'm sorry but YUCK!
that line is cute
its from Cinderella

Im crying though
hnkbhukugbyhhhhhhh
I kind of feel like the people on her team want "say something" to be a single and she disagrees with it so she didn't give much hype on that one. Out of all the songs she introduced she gave some kind of passion behind it but not that one. Lol silly girl :wub:

It better not be. I dont think that song could possibly be in the runnings at all. Its not single material. I'm pretty sure they'd go with Rather Be next based on the reception its received.
NOPE!
"No Tomorrow" is next!
Things you have to learn to live with. :welllol:
she went into detail with Ebro on Apple music on Say Something
I think she definitely likes it
Rather Be and No Tomorrow have to be next up. I can see somebody jumping on a remix to No Tomorrow and it getting single treatment.
I'm happy I love the album zzzzzzbzbsbzzzz maybe y'all will like the next one in 2028 🤷🏽♂️😂😂😂
No one said she didn't like it.
I would love to hear Bey on a remix to No Tomorrow. Their lower registers send me to another planet.
Oh wow this new set up is cayuteeee
Unconditional Oceans would've been so good for summer.

I kind of feel like the people on her team want "say something" to be a single and she disagrees with it so she didn't give much hype on that one. Out of all the songs she introduced she gave some kind of passion behind it but not that one. Lol silly girl :wub:
I'm sorry but she would be foolish not to make this a single.

I wouldnt mind 1 bit. If it was up to me and I heard the album before singles were chosen, that would been the 1st single (just with a bridge instead of repeating the chorus so many times). And then do a remix/duet w/ Usher.

Quote from: Luxury on July 31, 2020, 01:00:17 PM
I'm loving this album collectively. It flows really well to me. This is the album I wanted her to make about 4 or 5 years ago. Better late than never I guess. A few things I don't like are the interludes. I get what they were trying to do with them metaphorically, but they seem more like interruptions. I actually love High Heels until Bran' Nu pops up. Syrai was gliding just fine and then 'Nu pops up and just fucks up the vibe. I don't know why Brandy feels the need to use this abrasive/aggressive approach when she's rapping. It's just not pleasant. If she's gonna rap I wish would keep the approach she took on "Gonna find my love" in mind. The rapping really took away from "I Am More" as well imo, but it's still one of my favs. One last thing is Brandy's reluctance to use profanity. If she doesn't want to curse that's fine but I would prefer her to just change the lyrics to make sense without the cursing instead of using some corny substitute i.e. 'snitch' instead of 'bitch' or "muh fuh' like girl... :uhh: But overall I'm loving this project. Hopefully this is sign of more things to come and I don't have to wait years and years for a new project.
i actually love the raps on BOTH and think she did great. She has a very cali way of rapping lolz love queen .. let me go play the smash single meet in the middle real quick
Hmmm I don't know if that will happen

Say something is the best song on the album.
Rather Be should be the next single
No Tomorrow should be an interlude because it is basically rather be part 2 but less interesting.

Serious question time ddddd (Scroll past if it bugs you)
Does anyone else feel somewhat conflicted about Brandy using mental health as "metaphors" all throughout the album? I feel like if the wrong audience focuses on the lyrics they're going to drag her, especially when she's saying it's all metaphorical in interviews.
"I don't wanna be schizo no more" (Schizophrenia, not even sure how the symptoms or diagnosis would tie into the meaning of the song)
"I'm on the borderline" (Referring to Borderline Personality Disorder? That makes more sense, I guess)
"My mind is not retarded" (Dddddddd, this one speaks for itself. If some of the Twitter ments hear about this line...)
Bye BiPolar (According to the interview posted a few pages back, she isn't talking about herself, but about her ex. So she's just simply describing his behavior/mood as "bipolar"-ish?)
Obviously she's drawing from a lot of the pain she was in during the making of it (All of Lucid Dreams - abusing ambien, etc., "I'm medicated")... I don't blame her for not being more forthcoming in interviews as mental health is personal, but it would provide more context for people who might give her shit for her lyrics, instead of her basically saying she's using mental disorders at metaphors for being brokenhearted.
I don't know. I'm enjoying the music. The music meshes well with the mental turmoil in the lyrics. Just curious what you all think.

Then there's "no tomorrow" and " life again" in the 20's
Along with SAML, Say Something, Lucid dreams, bye bipolar and baby mama.

aww they could've give them more camera time
I love on "No Tomorrow" when she goes "I like it cause you know how I get down". Her tone on "down"! :plzstop: :plzstop: :plzstop:
I already had to lash someone for saying she's insensitive to real mental health issues. Let them say what they want. Brandy doesn't express her thoughts the best way sometimes. She should elaborate on what she means by "metaphor" if it becomes a real issue. I don't think it will.

Serious question time ddddd (Scroll past if it bugs you)
Does anyone else feel somewhat conflicted about Brandy using mental health as "metaphors" all throughout the album? I feel like if the wrong audience focuses on the lyrics they're going to drag her, especially when she's saying it's all metaphorical in interviews.
"I don't wanna be schizo no more" (Schizophrenia, not even sure how the symptoms or diagnosis would tie into the meaning of the song)
"I'm on the borderline" (Referring to Borderline Personality Disorder? That makes more sense, I guess)
"My mind is not retarded" (Dddddddd, this one speaks for itself. If some of the Twitter ments hear about this line...)
Bye BiPolar (According to the interview posted a few pages back, she isn't talking about herself, but about her ex. So she's just simply describing his behavior/mood as "bipolar"-ish?)
Obviously she's drawing from a lot of the pain she was in during the making of it (All of Lucid Dreams - abusing ambien, etc., "I'm medicated")... I don't blame her for not being more forthcoming in interviews as mental health is personal, but it would provide more context for people who might give her shit for her lyrics, instead of her basically saying she's using mental disorders at metaphors for being brokenhearted.
I don't know. I'm enjoying the music. The music meshes well with the mental turmoil in the lyrics. Just curious what you all think.
Have y'all ever thought that everything might not be a metaphor :dead:
Do y'all her to just come out and say she's been diagnosed? She's kinda telling on herself throughout the album dhdbdhdhd
Yeah, I thought that, but she's in interviews saying it's all metaphor, so :uhh:
She's explicitly said in multiple interviews that she's talking about her mental health on b7. The message at the end of the border literally says WE

Y'all want her to literally say it and she's NOT. Like I get it that you want her to be more transparent in the interviews but you have to take it for what it is and read it through the music. Its def not just all metaphors

Right. She's not gonna address it head on when the answers are literally in the music. I feel like her songs are double entendres. Mental health is addressed in many of the tracks, not just the obvious ones.
I saw a few folks saying the album theme was "problematic" . But if her truth is seen as problematic, then so be it.

She's speaking her truth the best way that she knows how. I think people need to stop holding others to all of these standards and taking everything so personally. She's not saying anything negative about those who might suffer from mental illnesses. And she probably does, herself, to some extent. It's not like she just used all of those metaphors just for the sake of doing so. There's a reason for it.

:nowgorl:
Y'all, I'm on like a rollercoaster of emotions :plzstop:
I can't decide how I feel :stressed:
Some of these songs are starting to sit a little better with me. I'm doing my BEST to reframe and accept this as it is, not how I expected or wanted it to be. I think after being so invested in Brandy for so long I've (and others) started to feel like I have a some sort of say in what she delivers. That's one of the problems with stanning. I was able to appreciate the music more when I just took it for what it was without all of my aassumptions about what it should be. I'm trying to get back to that mentality (not saying I'm through stanning Ghan tho :dead:)
I resent the hell out of Baby Mama and Love Again being on there still. They just feel out of place compared to everything else. Hopefully I'll grow accustomed to their flow in the album. The first half is where it's at for me right now, for sure tho. And I do feel like Borderline might end up becoming a staple for me. I get those tingly feelings when I hear it and the video sold it even more.
Thanks for putting up with me on my journey and hashing out my feelings lmao. One thing I can say for sure is that this is making me feel something, and challenging my perceptions for real. That's better than a, "oh, cute" and punch tea any day.

this is not a commercial album
GHan dug the fuck in a bit and I'm here 100% for it.
about to watch Borderline on my big screen for the first time and ready to be blown tf away
I don't mind an experimental album at all but yeah 🏕 no more camping in the future please just hire the people who did Lana's Born to die or FKA twigs if you want something progressive. Kanye's Yeezus was a surprise to many but the production is amazing. Bold choices, not messy/sloppy. Brandy's amazing vocals get lost often.. I'm glad there are some tracks (Lucid, Say, Rather) that are great but I feel like it could have been more experimental, futuristic and still showcase the vocals and lyrics. It is what it is. Hopefully it is a grower.

The mixing is awful on Spotify too
fuckk outta here
"oceans" sounds so bad wtf
such a good song
this shit is disheartening af
Just say you don't have good headphones and go. No time for the foreshadowing.
lmaooo baybee
i have my apple buds
and i have my sony mdr -7506 industry standard
and the problem is not the mix sounding good on decent headphones because that will not be everyones listening experience
if i wanna play it from my phone samsung galaxy s6 it wont sounds good and ppul will look like this :usuresis: :omgwatshappening: :overit:
and were all on here talking oh spotify has this oh apple has this like
thee mix and master should translate well everywhere like her previous albums
so dont even go there lol
one small gripe i have is that borderline is hard to follow a bit lyricly
to many added layers to lead vocals
not enough enunciating
it all kinda blends into each other
the lyrics totally left off the im sorry im sorry part
the song is more of a vibe than like a song meant to take everything in but still

Wait wait WAIT. I'm listening with my Bose headphones and there's a fucking song playing all throughout the All My Life Pt. 2 interlude that's fucking BOOKING me. It's fucking amazing. I see what they did there. There are hidden gems all throughout these interludes.

However ... progressive and experimental it most certainly IS and I'm real life stanning for my new favorite songs today

Just say you don't have good headphones and go. No time for the foreshadowing.
lmaooo baybee
i have my apple buds

and the problem is not the mix sounding good on decent headphones because that will not be everyones listening experience
if i wanna play it from my phone samsung galaxy s6 it wont sounds good and ppul will look like this :usuresis: :omgwatshappening: :overit:
and were all on here talking oh spotify has this oh apple has this like
thee mix and master should translate well everywhere like her previous albums
so dont even go there lol
one small gripe i have is that borderline is hard to follow a bit lyricly
to many added layers to lead vocals
not enough enunciating
it all kinda blends into each other
the lyrics totally left off the im sorry im sorry part
the song is more of a vibe than like a song meant to take everything in but still
YOU COMPLAIN EVERYDAY AND I JUST FEEL SORRY FOR U AT THIS POINT
I like the interludes. There's something emotional about them.

Serious question time ddddd (Scroll past if it bugs you)
Does anyone else feel somewhat conflicted about Brandy using mental health as "metaphors" all throughout the album? I feel like if the wrong audience focuses on the lyrics they're going to drag her, especially when she's saying it's all metaphorical in interviews.
"I don't wanna be schizo no more" (Schizophrenia, not even sure how the symptoms or diagnosis would tie into the meaning of the song)
"I'm on the borderline" (Referring to Borderline Personality Disorder? That makes more sense, I guess)
"My mind is not retarded" (Dddddddd, this one speaks for itself. If some of the Twitter ments hear about this line...)
Bye BiPolar (According to the interview posted a few pages back, she isn't talking about herself, but about her ex. So she's just simply describing his behavior/mood as "bipolar"-ish?)
Obviously she's drawing from a lot of the pain she was in during the making of it (All of Lucid Dreams - abusing ambien, etc., "I'm medicated")... I don't blame her for not being more forthcoming in interviews as mental health is personal, but it would provide more context for people who might give her shit for her lyrics, instead of her basically saying she's using mental disorders at metaphors for being brokenhearted.
I don't know. I'm enjoying the music. The music meshes well with the mental turmoil in the lyrics. Just curious what you all think.
Have y'all ever thought that everything might not be a metaphor :dead:
Do y'all her to just come out and say she's been diagnosed? She's kinda telling on herself throughout the album dhdbdhdhd
Yeah, I thought that, but she's in interviews saying it's all metaphor, so :uhh:
They both can be true. She's being Creative in that way. It's no one's business so she doesn't have to outright announce a diagnosis

I agree. I know this is why some people I have in mind won't like it. Like, this is why monika isn't crazy about any songs imo. She wants that standard "Brandy sound" that's not how musicians should be. Go listen to Monica or Chris Brown if u don't want musically growth. I really like the album

It gets better with each listen. I still think it could be better with some progression in the production. Like when that lil knock came in at 'I'm so dangerous, baby', a lil more knock, or beat switch woulda been nice.

Hey, everyone has a right to their own preferences. We're diff people so we're gonna like diff things. I do love that everybody kinda has their favorite, and like Brandy said, there's a song for everybody on this album.

I just don't get it. If I wanna hear a nostalgic mess, I'll listen to her old albums :dead:
I wanna hear what you give NOW. :plea:
No shade but Bey has put out some bullshit IMO and people went up for it bdndndn
The only thing I can think is that Beyoncé has evolved without many breaks, so her "progression" and her explorations as an artist may seem a bit more seamless. Bran has taken long breaks, and her "prime" was so iconic. It's weird for people to digest when she comes back as a new fckn CREATURE :plzstop:
I LOVE it though. She's like a new artist each album. I never know what to expect.

Guys, I can't fckn STOP listening to borderline. It's really damn amazing. I need a live performance now
I don't think the criticism is about Brandy's art, if it's commercial or not, Bran experimenting or wanting the old albums. Vocally Bran is the best ever. It is the production, the beats, timing. She deserved better. It is not about wanting the same Bran but seeing all this potential and amazing moments go to waste. But maybe B7 is just a start, I hope so. So yeah maybe she needs to talk to Drake or Timbaland for a next album. But I'm glad everyone found at least 1-2 tracks they really love.

I'm dealing with this feeling a bit as well but I think the best approach is to accept her art as it is. Sure, it's a little rough production-wise, but that's where she is/was at. It's easier to be at peace and enjoy when you let go of the expectations. Not saying it's easy, cuz they still pop up for me. But I'm able to appreciate it more now that I'm not worrying about Pamper and what he shoulda did.
Camper said Brandy calls Syrai boop so that's where that line comes from
The writing reminds me of Amy and how a lot of it doesn't make sense to the listener because the references are so specific and personal
"Say Something" is also giving me a little

And Border is a lot different sounding than I expected from the vocal clips we heard. Much more mellow. I was expecting a mid/ballad knock, kinda like I Tried. But somehow even with subverting my expectations it's quickly becoming one of my favorites :plzstop:
!!!
Snippets really messed me up. I kinda HATED the SAML snippet from Pamp's live, and I didn't use the Lucid or Bye Bipolar snippets at ALL and they are all some of my favs from b7 :plzstop:
I was so nervous pressing play. I literally just had to let all my anxiety go and listen to the album as it was. And I loved it :stressed:

Border is just ok to me. It's gotten better. I wasn't using at all at first.
lmao its gotten better
the song didnt change hun
I think Oceans is one if my favorite Brandy songs ever
I really, REALLY love borderline...
Whewwwwwwwwwwwwww
I'm also not understanding why people think she might be mocking mental health issues dbdnnfnd
she's literally advocating. I'm assuming they do not recall her clap back era? The Snapchats? I knew then that something wasn't right. To see her in this space now and working through her healing just makes me so...:stressed:

I'd rather her collaborate with The Weeknd as opposed to Drake, honestly. I know they're similar, but The Weeknd has a better overall sound and quality of music. Drake has been a little stale lately.

Bran and Pamper SHAT. The only thing I would change about B7 is the mixing on some songs and toss High Heels. Everything else is perfect and I'm tf PLEASED :feelinmyself:

Karin...this album is just IT for me. I was so nervous. I was scared about her songwriting, playing with song structures, Pamper. But when I let it play and be wtf it IS...I am just in LOVE.

I heard so many things going into it, but there are some GEMS, and outside of the mixing and mess, I USE some of these songs...hear me, Borderline!!
I wanna hear her do this live. I'm interested in seeing her emote it because I know how excited she is to perform this new music.
Okay, Corona, you can leave now...

Borderline seems like the departure point for the album. I believe she said it's the first full song she recorded for the project. It seems (mostly) everything flowed from there. It's one of her best tracks ever tbh.

So overdue! A simple nomination will probably do so much for her confidence.
But we all know mutha hates the industry and politics, so she won't do any pandering. We'll see :ermm:

The more I listen to Border...it sounds like something she could've written with Stacy Barthe.

Brandy just moved up to #8 on the Apple Music streaming chart. She was #10 earlier. Keep streaming! Also, Alanis is nowhere to be found even though she's #2 on iTunes so Brandy has a great chance of pulling ahead on Billboard.

Like this may not be your favorite album of hers to you but as far as the quality and storytelling and conception...beats etc its up there...like its her LEMONADE.

Unconditional Oceans sounds good to me and it gives Little Mermaid tease. The fact that she makes her voice sound underwater and like she's floating omg this QUEENNNNNNN.
She's speaking on some heavy stuff and how this unconditional love for a man helped restore her. Is she speaking to God when she says "fair is my religion....wonder why you sent it to me if you were just gonna ruin it (relationship)" ughh

Keisha Epps better stay there and get that lashing.
They were so close tho. It will never be fixed. When you were close like this and someone betrayed the other one, it's over for good.

I would be pissed if someone sang about me tho. I mean, music is eternal... to know that there is gonna be a song out there lashing my back until I die... What kinda vengeance.

How the hell did Bran do schizophrenic runs at the beginning of Borderline like that—the scaled-up one sounds happy and the lower one sounds sad. Like :uhh:
It's like she had a psychotic break in the booth

Kelly Rowland is stanning in her IG story
whew
So yea b7 is just fckn IT.
Welcome to the elite 3
:feelinmyself:
Tweet is stanning too
Wow wow wow
bran is really queen huh
This is her absolute best creation. The instrumental that starts off the album is absolutely gorgeous that leads into SAML. This whole song kinda prepares us for all the material for the album. It gives just enough without giving too much for the album starter. From there, I feel like I'm just FLOATING along the music, the melodies, her VOICE. Literally floating with the atmospheric sounds that are throughout these songs.
I love how these choruses aren't just copy and pasted throughout the song. There is truly something special and unique added each time, a harmony added/removed for another purposefully placed note. Good GOD.
The vocal is stellar. Every song. These lows. We all know, as fans, how she owns the lows but lows are never appreciated as much as the high notes to the average/casual music listener. I think those casual listeners can listen to this album and finally see and appreciate those vocals that we have always known were amazing.
If I had to pick my top 2 songs, it would be "Rather Be" And "Borderline". RB is definitely the highlight and probably top 5 songs she has ever delivered. I'm actually surprised that I love "Borderline" as much as I do. Usually when you have vocals like Bran, I get mad about the singer's voice being altered and almost too computerized. But it WORKS with the song's content and structure. Nothing in this song is over done. Perfectly connects. The melody and "...I'm the most jealous girl" has been stuck in my head since first listen.
SAML, Lucid Dreams, No Tomorrow, Say Something, I Am More... sooooo much replay value. "Bye Bipolar" is EMOTIONAL and I absolutely love it but can't find myself to play it over and over like the others because I have yet to listen to the song and NOT get teary eyed. So imma leave that song to listen to when I want to put myself into that kinda mood. The only song that could have been left off, and should have, is "High Heels". I realize she wanted her daughter to shine, but this wasn't the time. And Brandy even said herself that Bran'Nu should have never happened and was shocked to hear her make an appearance, and a cringe worthy one at that.
Minus the one flaw, this is her absolute best. This is what happens when the singer is INVOLVED and invested so much into the project. We just needed her more hands on!
I love this Brandy!
I now hear how Say sumn could be a single. This album is everything. I'm even kinda warming to HH
After finally listening with earphones, Borderline gets knocked out of my Top 5.I love everything about it except the drunken voice she's using on "Got another lady" .What was the point of that.

Some of y'all are damn psychos I swear.
That's not the point. As a real Brandy fan I don't see how you can't understand what she did with this album and her voice...where is his EAR at that we are all supposed to have. To say this is her worst album got me looking at him sideways and that's just that....NO MAM

I like a that BranNu got to make some appearances. Y'all will not hate. I think she only said she was killing BranNu because of some of the fan's reactions. BranNu has made it onto 2 albums since Brandy said she was dead. And she's not becoming a rapper. She's still a songstress. She just has a good flow, and it's cute. It adds a little spice to her music every now and then.
The way she uses her voice on b7 makes it my favorite vocal performance of all her albums. It wasn't about the big notes, but the the way she literally moves in and out her phrasing, her cadence, her tone switch up, the precision. She fckn PERFORMED. There's usually a specific tone for each Brandy album, but she gave us all the previous ones AND more on this project. I just...

Her biggest commercial success was a pop album—NSN. There were elements of RNB throughout but was definitely more pop, and a predecessor to human.
Human is a great album. It was a missed opportunity for her.
Human's best song is "Shattered God"

That's the problem, Brandy has never just been an R&B artist and y'all like to keep black artist in a box. Bran is really that weird ass girl who just happened to become famous but u can hear it in her unreleased. I would love to have seen the Human era where she was standing in it with full confidence. I love when Queen gives pop, I would even like to hear those songs with some bass drops and gogo influence as well.
Maybe Queen can redo Human and add some more flavor to give the gworls what they want. #JusticeforHuman
:oof:
Honestly speaking, I'd love for Brandy to continue exploring this more experimental sound.
Keep Camper and bring in a few more producers. Also some people to help polish the sound a bit.

I didn't use SAML at first but now I love it so I can see how the regular gorls who aren't brandy fans may be confused.

Who said she didn't have any vocal "moments" on this album?
:uhh:
there are moments all over it
say the only vocal moment was at the end of " no tomorrow "
what?
I can see Brandy walking up to that Grammy stage in tears. Fabric just breezing behind her. I can really fucking see it!

Unconditional Oceans sounds good to me and it gives Little Mermaid tease. The fact that she makes her voice sound underwater and like she's floating omg this QUEENNNNNNN.
She's speaking on some heavy stuff and how this unconditional love for a man helped restore her. Is she speaking to God when she says "fair is my religion....wonder why you sent it to me if you were just gonna ruin it (relationship)" ughh

I agree. I know this is why some people I have in mind won't like it. Like, this is why monika isn't crazy about any songs imo. She wants that standard "Brandy sound" that's not how musicians should be. Go listen to Monica or Chris Brown if u don't want musically growth. I really like the album
hmmmm, you have me all wrong in how I see Brandy as an artist. I love experimental Brandy, and I have always said that. That's what I love about Brandy is that she is album to take R&B to another level. I love all kinds of music, and I love Brandy as an vocalist. Thats why I like for her to be experimental. She shits!
Now, this album is mixed. To me, it has R&B, Pop, Rock and so forth, and I love that now. I was thrown off because the singles are R&B but the other songs are Popish. I was expecting a Brandyish R&B album, but I now appreciate the art Brandy put forth. She fuckin' slayed!
Lucid Dreams is just! :'( :'( :'(

I just don't get it. If I wanna hear a nostalgic mess, I'll listen to her old albums :dead:
I wanna hear what you give NOW. :plea:
No shade but Bey has put out some bullshit IMO and people went up for it bdndndn
The only thing I can think is that Beyoncé has evolved without many breaks, so her "progression" and her explorations as an artist may seem a bit more seamless. Bran has taken long breaks, and her "prime" was so iconic. It's weird for people to digest when she comes back as a new fckn CREATURE :plzstop:
I LOVE it though. She's like a new artist each album. I never know what to expect.
this bitch is amazing! SAML is amazing! She sounds so beautiful! :plzstop: :plzstop:
I think the unconventional song structure is what's throwing some people off. I have to remind myself of that when I'm talking about this album with folks who haven't followed her as long as I have. As far as recreating old albums, it's something Marsha Ambrosius once said that made it all make sense. Some people want Brandy to recreate old albums, but the person she was then compared to who she is now aren't the same people.
I change my mind, Brandy fuckin' did that!
Unconditional Oceans! :plzstop: :plzstop: :plzstop:
I absolutely love this song! The lyrics, and beat, the way she's singing it! Bravo, Brandy!
I went back to listen and this album is really good!
i went a spontaneous family visit only to realize i won't be able to listen to b7 in peace once it's released. so i only got home some hours ago and got to hear it just NOW! how fucking crazy is that, but i really didnt want anything between me and my BRANDY moment. i'm still confused and happy and amazed. i need to re-listen but she's on some next level shit for sure. the borderline video just lashed me aswell :'( this legendary queen

THIS deserves a SONG OF THE YEAR Grammy nom, not just the R&B categories. Wishful thinking....
Oof I PRAY that they recognize her next year. It's so so soooooo well overdue.
So overdue! A simple nomination will probably do so much for her confidence.
But we all know mutha hates the industry and politics, so she won't do any pandering. We'll see :ermm:
haha, Brandy and Camper are gonna DEF submitt this album for Grammy nominations!

These are my least favorite too
I hope the album will grow on me. The production is flawless but most of the songs are lacking great melodies.
This is my least favorite Brandy album but it contains some gems like "Borderline", "Love Again", "Say Something" and "Baby Mama". I'm also liking a lot "No Tomorrow" and "Rather Be".
I avoided snippets and interviews so I went in not knowing what to expect. The album was disappointing on the first listen. It is growing on me now. I might end up like it more than Human.

I definitely don't want to judge anyone's taste, but it's very weird hearing Brandy stans not respond well to b7 because to me, it encompasses everything that I stan about her :dead: like I listen to it and I'm like "THIS is Brandy." It's a mix of her BEST work, released and unreleased, plus this commitment to move the needle. I'm just amazed.
Then I see people who don't use but go up for Two Eleven and it's like...it appears you were a fan of a bunch of demos more than Brandy herself. There were very few moments on that album that felt authentic or true to Brandy.
I'm glad she got that out her system and people can go back to that if they feel they must, but I'm so looking forward to this girl who has completely found her artistic freedom.

I'm so looking forward to this girl who has completely found her artistic freedom.
Very well said Lee
You just lashed me bro :flamebroiled:

I understand why people drag it...it's not an easy digestible album...
It's different for sure, and I could absolutely see average listeners being thrown off, but I think it's way easier to digest if you don't go in wishing and hoping it sounded like something else :dead:
I know musicians and singers who are going TF UPPPPP, but that was expected lol

I definitely don't want to judge anyone's taste, but it's very weird hearing Brandy stans not respond well to b7 because to me, it encompasses everything that I stan about her :dead: like I listen to it and I'm like "THIS is Brandy." It's a mix of her BEST work, released and unreleased, plus this commitment to move the needle. I'm just amazed.
Then I see people who don't use but go up for Two Eleven and it's like...it appears you were a fan of a bunch of demos more than Brandy herself. There were very few moments on that album that felt authentic or true to Brandy.
I'm glad she got that out her system and people can go back to that if they feel they must, but I'm so looking forward to this girl who has completely found her artistic freedom.
I'm really starting to warm up to this record. That being said, it doesn't remove the fact that there are serious issues with the production and mixing/mastering quality. It becomes even more apparent when you shuffle these songs on a playlist with other current releases. I ripped the CD to FLAC for my car and it's still very obvious. I'm accepting it as it is because I appreciate her art and vision for this project, but I can understand people's disappointment at least in that regard. Especially when her past works have been so excellently produced, overall.
All that being said, Borderline is one of the best things she's EVER done. I don't know how a true Brandy Stan could deny that.

I love the album minus two songs
So happy you like it.
:guys:
n I love it too
I'm going tf up in full stan mode! What the hec Queen just did with this album, I don't understand. If you don't get it, you just don't get it. Most people don't open up their hearts and ears to real music anymore just the same robotic shit. These lyrics are lashing me one by one, Bran really put her all into this and I'm stanninggggggggggggg.
Queen is trying to change the game.

Also I need her to start pronouncing her words clear...When people listen to a song they listen to the words they don't wanna play the guessing game ( lyrics would help ) saving all my love is my shyt but it seems as if they slowed it down or something.

I really think some of that is the mixing. There definitely needed to be someone other than her as EP to mix right. The album is a really good definitely would love a deluxe version and maybe fix the mixing with the bonus songs

The only thing that's preventing me from being able to FULLY get in. I hope someone communicates this to her (constructively, lol) so that moving forward she gets someone to take care of that. The curious thing is that Baby Mama and Love Again are mixed well, and by the same crew as the other songs. So I'm not really sure what happened...

it was mixed by one of the top mixers in the business. Jaycen Joshua (sp?) Brandy and camper weren't just mixing all these songs and/or going the cheap route. I think the mixing was intentional.
I personally heard and understood her fine first listen.

Why would the engineer intentionally mix it poorly? That doesn't make any sense :dead:
I think the more likely explanation is that he just didn't give his best effort. A lot of this era has given budget b/c of her indie status, so I'm thinking whoever was responsible didn't pay top dollar for mixing allocations. The quality gives me unreleased/mixtape. Same sound as Freedom Rings. I guess some people are ok w/ that or wanna make excuses but I'm struggling to see why they would choose to make it sound rough on purpose. Like, Aaliyah's "Messed Up" is an example of this similar sound but still mixed very well. So it achieves the intention of being weird/progressive while sounding professionally done.
I'm not trying to piss anyone off but I'm also not gonna color it with roses and rainbows. The art here is beautiful, and there are still areas with room for improvement.

I'm not saying there aren't some problem areas in the mixing but I honestly think some of the stuff Brandy wanted a certain effect with her voice and sound. Not only that, its all the stacks and intricate harmonies that sometimes clash with the beats (SAML)...she's breaking all the rules on purpose.
And finally, Brandy doesn't always enunciate her words that great and that's how she has trained my ear over the years. When I listen to the album now I can pretty much hear everything clear besides some stuff. I do wish High Heels was clearer, Unconditional and SAML as far as her singing voice on some parts

There's a way to do this that still sounds professional, is my point. Like, Unconditional Oceans could have had clean, clear production with her vocals muted/filtered to give it that underwater sound eveyone is claiming was the goal. I love that song but it and High Heels probably sound the worst in terms of quality.
Either way, it's what we got, so I'll accept it as it is and hope that going forward she pays more attention to quality in this area.

There's a way to do this that still sounds professional, is my point. Like, Unconditional Oceans could have had clean, clear production with her vocals muted/filtered to give it that underwater sound eveyone is claiming was the goal. I love that song but it and High Heels probably sound the worst in terms of quality.
Either way, it's what we got, so I'll accept it as it is and hope that going forward she pays more attention to quality in this area.
I hope all of this is a learning experience for her

I'm not saying there aren't some problem areas in the mixing but I honestly think some of the stuff Brandy wanted a certain effect with her voice and sound. Not only that, its all the stacks and intricate harmonies that sometimes clash with the beats (SAML)...she's breaking all the rules on purpose.

Took me a minute to get into Lucid Dreams. I didnt like the tone she was using at first. Perhaps still woulda preferred the Borderline/SAML tone on it - would've been more ethereal. But I dont mind it at all now. When I read the lyrics while listening, it changed the whole experience for me.

Ok I gave it time and listened with good headphones.
My favorite song is definitely SS, i love the energy...best track. I love List Brandy.
The vocals on Lucid are amazing. The raw vocals definitely hit me... and it reminds me of binaural beats. Definitely a song for meditation.
Unconditional is another highlight. Even tho production is a bit sloppy and I don't hear what she sings..I do love the energy.
I'm happy Borderline grew on me. It is still a very long song but it is nice vibe. (They should have made two songs or something...make the end the intro or interlude.) I'm not mad at it. I like that her vocals and lyrics sound very personal.
yea Ryan is foine tbh
Saving isn't growing on me.

This was a dark time
I want to like SAML..sometimes it hits me and sometimes I get distracted by production..piano reminds me of when I used to play around in fruity loop computer beats maker. It is a bit long but I can see this one growing more. I really feel the lyrics 'can we let me live'..
Rather be is definitely a nice single choice. The vocals are amazing. I like the beat change. (I'm scared I will get bored after too many plays tho) No Tomorrow needs to be an interlude, way too long and repetitive (smooth vocals, very chill sweet song but I'm going to fall asleep).
I think it really depends how you listen to it. Some songs are not really for sitting and listening. More for when you're doing something in the meantime. Or just floating away in a meditation. When I focus hard on lyrics and mixing it gets difficult. I can see why people who really love it think it is healing music. (Especially first half)
I don't really care for the rest. Maybe I will play BM every now and then. That song surprisingly grew on me. The interludes seem like fillers to create more tracks after our complaints. We just needed her clear vocals and it would have been so much better.
I thought I would like I am more & high heels better but after a couple of days I changed my mind. I am more is just bit too Hannah Montana pop (I miss instruments, would have been cute for Human era) and high heels also sounds a bit dated (nice song for Sy'rai, love her voice, needed neptunes). The rap is cringeworthy. I'm sure there are a lot of people who love it but yeahh..maybe not edgy or authentic enough after big statements like Borderline & Say something?
Love again is one of the few songs with great quality, production and instruments. This song should have been earlier on the tracklist. Too slow for the end of the record...it is drowning and deserves more attention.
I forced myself to sit through Bye Bipolar..wow so difficult to digest. Human vibes but I'd rather hear the song Human. BB is so long and draining..cringe cringe. How many times repeat cried and cried, lied and lied. No thank you.
Back then I couldn't take no chances. Karma is a bitch baby :feelinmyself:

"Deepest Thoughts" could have been on this album
Unconditional Oceans is lashing me.
This breezy weird lean.
That ending....
:flamebroiled:
"Unconditional Oceans" has grown on me a lot.
I'm returning to UO, Border, and starting to appreciate SAML a little more. Those are on repeat. The rest is meh and feels kinda basic by comparison. That and these are the songs where her vocals are most pleasing to listen to, for me. Can't stand that forced, takin a dookie vocal approach she gives on the back half of the alber.

lmao you love Brandy in her baby tone at all times :plzstop:
The more I listen to the album, the more I fall in love. I've always stanned her voice and her music, but idk if I've ever emotionally connected to a Brandy album like I have b7. On an emotional level, it's been mostly her unreleased stuff like Follow Me, Sweet Nothings, This Must Be Love, Escape, etc. So to have these feelings connected to an official project is almost surreal.

How long have you been a fan? Have you really dug into Full Moon? Bc if so I don't see how there's any comparison vocally.
But I guess it all just boils down to taste. I like SAML, UO, and Borderline because her tone and phrasing are clean. Bye Bipolar by contrast sounds forced and heavy, not in a good way.
And me not liking the song doesn't mean I'm not happy she's getting her flowers :dead:
I need y'all super stans to stop equating dissatisfaction with malcontent.
Aside from the album, she definitely needs to submit Rather Be, Borderline and Bye Bipolar for nominations....they have a great chance at winning

I don't really care for the rest. Maybe I will play BM every now and then. That song surprisingly grew on me. The interludes seem like fillers to create more tracks after our complaints. We just needed her clear vocals and it would have been so much better.
I thought I would like I am more & high heels better but after a couple of days I changed my mind. I am more is just bit too Hannah Montana pop (I miss instruments, would have been cute for Human era) and high heels also sounds a bit dated (nice song for Sy'rai, love her voice, needed neptunes). The rap is cringeworthy. I'm sure there are a lot of people who love it but yeahh..maybe not edgy or authentic enough after big statements like Borderline & Say something?
Love again is one of the few songs with great quality, production and instruments. This song should have been earlier on the tracklist. Too slow for the end of the record...it is drowning and deserves more attention.
I forced myself to sit through Bye Bipolar..wow so difficult to digest. Human vibes but I'd rather hear the song Human. BB is so long and draining..cringe cringe. How many times repeat cried and cried, lied and lied. No thank you.
Whewww girl ur energy is just negative, you aren't even in the place to receive this music. Borderline isn't long enough for me, them 5 minutes go by so fast b/c I'm so mesmerized by the lyrics, the approach, the stacking and harmonies smh. Did you really listen to Bye Bipolar, its one of Bran's best vocals and truest songs and it isn't repetitive.
:ohwow:
I'm sorry but this is a lie. The lyrics may be true/deep but this is one of her worst vocals for me. Ugly tone, running all over for no reason. Literally all of Full Moon and Human beg to differ :uhh:
Stan out but don't be ridiculous.

Ur ears just aren't working sweets, you've been a negative Nancy for over 100 pages now let it go. Her tone is beautiful and husky without too much rasp. Bran comes on so clear and the emotions that she evokes is out of this world. The song isn't meant to be pretty, its her final release and I love it. THIS AIN'T FULL MOON OR HUMAN...that voice is multi-faceted and sitting in 2020 pooh.

:dead:
Well gor you gon cry and cry and cry and cry and cry cuz that ain't happenin
:watchit:
At this point I'm convinced that some of y'all are just listening to a different album :plzstop:
Brandy vocally clears the whole industry on this song ALONE, not to mention the rest of the album :dead: :dead:
So glad I won't have to play catch up...and I'm loving the fact that so many musicians and singers are giving Bran her flowers. Whew what a privilege to have working ears :feelinmyself:
How long have you been a fan? Have you really dug into Full Moon? Bc if so I don't see how there's any comparison vocally.
But I guess it all just boils down to taste. I like SAML, UO, and Borderline because her tone and phrasing are clean. Bye Bipolar by contrast sounds forced and heavy, not in a good way.
And me not liking the song doesn't mean I'm not happy she's getting her flowers :dead:
I need y'all super stans to stop equating dissatisfaction with malcontent.
I've been a fan of Brandy for almost 20 years and Full Moon is my favorite album :plzstop:
Nobody is super stanning. I just think it's amazing that respected artists are really embracing what she did on this project. I personally don't care whether people on here like the album or not bdndnd I'm just saying the nitpicking is LATE. Seeing other people stanning for the album/song and coming in with the
"well actually" :plzstop:
I love that I can take a new album from Brandy and hear her do stuff vocally that I've NEVER heard from her. If I wanna hear her do Full Moon stuff, I'd just go listen to that album :dead:
Her vocal approach changes literally every single album and she gave me more styles on b7 than I've heard on any other project. It's like she morphed into a different person on each song and I love it. And I think her vocals on Bye Bipolar are stellar. Similar to Lullaby, which I also loved.

Well good for you boo. I'm glad everything's working out in your favor, but after 8 years I think it's fair to nitpick. There are plenty of fans who aren't exactly pleased with this album but keeping it to themselves. It wouldnt be such a big deal if she released something new in two years but that seems unlikely, especially the way she's talked about approaching this like her final album. So after 8 years of waiting and most likely at least several more before something else new, I think it's fair for people to be disappointed. And seeing as this is a message board, it's not unreasonable to share those feelings here.
I love how the album cover just screams classic. Queen. Whew. Lemme start from the top again.

I just told you half of the songs grew on me :dead: Bran's vocals are amazing
Am not the only one who thinks part 2 of the album is difficult to get into
I've been overdosing on old albums were all the amazing vocals and runs didn't blend into eachother so much and there was a buildup or something in production/beat to keep me curious. I miss that precision. I only want the best for Bran when it comes to the people she works with.
I am very excited she is back
or else I wouldn't be on here
Say Something alone >>>
enough to make me stan
And I give the album a lot of spins on Spotify and see if songs grow..hopefully this will also help with her streams

I love no tomorrow but it's interesting how such a short song can feel so long just because she's repeating the same lyrics over and over again in the second half. A remix with another artist would really elevate it before it is launched as a single.
Unconditional Oceans is starting to lash me - I love the chorus. The beat is trippy and took time to get used to it
Not understanding the lyrics to SAML is preventing me from fully getting in. I love the production though. Is it me or is this song meant to be somewhat a tribute to her discography with the Broken-hearted reference and the emphasis when she sings and repeats the word "down"
Borderline is something tf ELSE

And Borderline is the best song on the album after Rather Be
Borderline may be slightly better from an artistic standpoint though

I listened to the album all weekend and I can honestly say it's growing on me!...I do hate the mixing tho. How can brandy and her team allow this? Also I need her to start pronouncing her words clear...When people listen to a song they listen to the words they don't wanna play the guessing game ( lyrics would help ) saving all my love is my shyt but it seems as if they slowed it down or something.
I really think some of that is the mixing. There definitely needed to be someone other than her as EP to mix right. The album is a really good definitely would love a deluxe version and maybe fix the mixing with the bonus songs
!!!!
The only thing that's preventing me from being able to FULLY get in. I hope someone communicates this to her (constructively, lol) so that moving forward she gets someone to take care of that. The curious thing is that Baby Mama and Love Again are mixed well, and by the same crew as the other songs. So I'm not really sure what happened...
I think her team just like saying YES YES YES...smh
Baby mama was remastered for the album
But i think because these are really non camper tracks that they are treated a but different
Camper is credited for keys and programming on love again but i think a different team handled his project
Nuch like a different team handled baby mama
But a mastering plug in was added to all the tracks for uniformity i guess and it impacts different tracks in different ways
Baby mama is not the single or video version
The final album mix is compressed to sound even

I appreciate what's she's saying but her tone on it just really grosses me out. There's parts of I Am More that are similar, where she does that deep, heavy, slurring vocal that is just super grating. I know it's on purpose but I can't bring myself to appreciate it :dead:
Glad the top half of the album is cleaner vocally.

Regardless I do think a lot of relevant artist/producers are going to reach out to Brandy to work. Hopefully she uses this time to mastermind some collabs that can keep her going even when the album dies down.

I am more is perfect! it's for sure a single
Album is still slaying me. My favorite track changes every day. I'm starting to warm up to lucid dreams more. It didn't slay me off the jump but it's getting there.
Lucid Dreams is IT! That shit need a well executed visual hands down
Unconditional Oceans: lorddddd do you guys hear the under layering vocal slayage at 3:15 when she sang so conditional and then again at 3:21 when she sang you are unconditional...... OMG I hear something different with her every time I listen to the song. My god this lady is amazing.

The bridge on Unconditional Oceans is one of my favorite things... "used to be a mess, had no heart to heal, was a self sabotaging, problem"
The way she sings sabotaging and problem :wub: :plzstop:
Weird beat, but with structure and layers >>>>

so B7 is predicted to have a 22-25k 1st week sales (Album Sales + Streaming) .... ugh for an indie it's not that bad but i expected a lil more ... like 30k
if i remember correctly, 2/11 was at 60k 1st week ..(yeah i know that was a decade ago but..yeah)

black is king.. is.... ok (to me)
The visuals is beautfil, costumes colors , african art etc..and the message is cute but sometimes i was lost between the lil boy's storyline and the album...
i enjoyed it cause i really adored the album and i know it by heart but for the people who havent got into the album...it could be a lil yawning lol

I can't believe Victoria really gave her Rather Be & Brandy almost didn't put it on the album :uhh:

A mini movie of UO, Rather Be, & LD leading up to Borderline
No shade but y'all still want her to shoot more videos after viewing BM and Borderline? :unsure:

I do want Frank Gatson gone, but I doubt that's gonna happen this era.

I'm grateful that she even gave what she did tho so I don't wanna complain. I'd be perfectly fine with videos like she did for GMA tho or acoustic stuff as opposed to concepts/budgets..
So did Bran lose #10 spot or nah?
not the beginning of SAML being reminiscent of an updated Charlie Brown intro :plzstop:
I knew it reminded me of something :plzstop: :plzstop:

Just the song structure in terms of the verses and possibly having a bridge as well... I thought it was gonna be more sensual too but it came out more "fun"
"Never ever cheat, never lie to me. I'm the most jealous girl, in the whole wide world."
I love how she saus that! :gorlonfire: :gorlonfire: :gorlonfire: :gorlonfire: :gorlonfire:
"Oceans" is lashing me rn...something about how she sings between that snare and bass is so familiar...it's just signature Brandy. 🔥

This album is still knocking me around. I want queen to grab so many awards for this damn GEM. The more I listen to it...the more I think they should submit it for Best R&B album instead of Progressive R&B at the Grammys. I think that's an automatic win for the WEAKnd's trash mess. She probably has a better shot in the other category.

It is soooo damn goooood. I thought it was okay the first couple listens. I drove to the beach to it a week ago today and it while some songs I loved it still hadn't fully settled into my spirit. I was listening with a critical and cautious ear then; now I'm just letting it use me. I'm listening to it now on the way back and it's crazy how much deeper it resonates. I literally pump my fist in the air when certain songs come on because I know what's in store.
I still don't want to rank it in in her discography yet, but it's easily top 3 for me now and it could go higher. This is the realest and most experimental she's ever been. I feel like Brandy is truly at the forefront of this album when in the past it was more the producers vision.
I am the fuck fed!!!!

I love all these pictures! :wub:
When she sings "...No one's there for the show" after the second verse in "Say Something" I always hear Baby Bran. LOVE when she sounds like that!
"Unconditional Oceans" has really grown on me. It's so unassuming in structure and overall exection. It's just damn beautiful.
Lucid Dreams is moving up to one of my faves on the album.
i'm so happy for brandy. this album is a true labor of love. she really executed the vision she wanted and i am very proud of her. this is the most "brandy" album she's released since afro imo. the other two albums in between still have special songs on them. b7 just feels more like her than they did.

This song is fighting for dear life to be my fav... the way this shit been LASHING me!!! Especially b/c it's so abstract that you have to listen over and over again to find something new and to get it!
:gorlonfire:
I didn't think I really liked this one but the melody has been stuck in my head the past couple of days and I keep waking up singing it. That "oh my looooord" part :plzstop:
Let it use you
I loooooove the way she sings "oh my lord"
It's crazy how a song will hit you in a specific moment and change the way you feel about it. It's like hitting a switch.
I did not care for lucid dreams when I first heard the album but I slowly started to like it. Yesterday I picked up on the car fog lyric when I was listening to it in the car and I felt it on a different level. Been my favorite song ever since.

I'm trying! I listened to it again today but then I got to the "
wahhaahhhhaahhuuhhuuuuhhuuuuaahhhh" part that's all deep and slurry right before the chorus and it pissed me off :dead:

:gorlonfire:
That line punches me in my gut for some reason.
Lyrically this is her best album. The way she paints these realities
:stressed:
It's definitely my fave on the album right now.
yesssss! I love the lyrics, and the way she sings many of the verses. It's like she's voice acting. You remember that part on "Lulluby" where she goes, "No! Don't take my priiiiide and jooooooy"? It was sooooooo fitting for that part!
The way she sings the first verse of "No Tomorrow"! :stressed:
"Said you need signs from the LooooOOOrrrd..." :plzstop:
The "Used to write our names in car fog" always makes me think of the "Bad Girls" video by M.I.A. ... I would live for a video for Lucid Dreams that actually features some stunt driving! Brandy has always had incredible vehicles in her videos.. stunt driving and writing her name in car fog for real would be the dopest shit ever! And true evolution for her videography too :wub:

She emotes downe and the lyrics are so relatable. I also think they hit a bit harder because we kinda know when she was going through this period.
What is she about to feed us with this deluxe later??

Y'all need to learn how to deal with ppls criticisms :dead:
It doesn't take away from your enjoyment of the album if others find parts of it lacking. This is a discussion forum so if y'all can sit and praise camper down for his muddy beats then others can say they don't like them.

Nobody has a problem with criticism. I think it's gotten to the point where the album was released two weeks ago and ppl are still complaining about something that is NOT changing. Like...let it go. If you don't use, why even enter a thread of people praising? It looks goofy as shit :plzstop:

I guess I'm asking why do you care? If nobody truly had a problem then they would pay the comments and punch (and some do). Complaining into an empty void gets old and people would eventually stop.
It's the defensive responses and also the over the top "
best album ever! best producer ever!" posts that elicit that response. Ppl give a :calmdownsis: who aren't totally sold and I think that's fair.
Either way, someone else's opinion, good or bad, shouldn't matter to whether you like or dislike the album. I'm working on that myself tbh. But if you're really tired of the comments about not liking the album and want them gone then just ignore them. People eventually find somewhere else to complain or move on.

That's fine love but at the end of the day you don't get to police what other people say. You can only control yourself so mute if you must and then move on. We have all been waiting a very long time for this album. For some people it met their expectations, for others it was a bit of a let down. This should be a place where both points of view can be discussed. People who are disappointed in the album are still huge Brandy fans (for the most part) and come here because they love and anticipate her music.
And TBH I think people are fuming at others praising so much probably b/c they are upset and wish they could get into the album like that. I get it. It irritates me when I see people saying how immaculately produced this record is when that's my biggest complaint :dead: But it doesn't and shouldn't matter either way. I am genuinely happy for you and others who really love the album. I'm glad it's giving you what you needed :wub:
But I'll still check you when ur capin a bit TEW hard for Pamper :watchit:
J/k it's all love

Annie you don't like the album. We get it.
Hdndnn
Not being PISSED Brandy loves her own work
!!!! :uhh: Like the album is done. Onward.
All I wanted to say was please just put All my life with these clear vocals on the deluxe. I stan for the snippets in the studio. I thought the topic was what we wanted for the deluxe...But anyways if that's too much to ask and it needs to be dipped in Camper sauce I'll just accept and keep it moving.
Sorry if it bothers people so much if I criticize Camp.. I see potential and get disappointed. But I've seen other people stan for the clear vocal version too. I don't remember people getting offended over people not liking what Timbo did with Turn it up, Sean Garrett or Kanye's productions but ok. Maybe it is different because it is basically a full Bran Camper album and criticizing production means criticizing Bran to some? I love Bran so much. And I appreciate a lot of songs on the album and her creative expression, but I get it my opinion doesn't matter. I apologize if I'm killing the vibe, I will shut up.
I'm thankful for Bran for sharing her beautiful vocals. She is and will always be the Vocal Bible.

Because it has the clear vocals and I like to hear Bran sing. That's all. And I get people only remember the negative, I actually said a lot of positive things about this project, fell in love with a lot of songs and will continue to Stan for Bran. I even love Baby Mama now, it is a miracle. But I'll shut up, I don't want to offend anyone. I'll enjoy the album in my own way.

If you want them to count toward her album sales more than once you need to buy each separately. I've driven to like 4 different targets to buy copies already :plzstop:
I went to a couple different Targets and rung them up Separately if that counts :diddraispoot: and i'm streaming my Brandy playlist on repeat :blush:
Yep as long as they're ring up separately! I'm gonna grab 2 more today since it's payday lolz
Had Bord' on repeat on my way home from picking up my food and decided to go for another drive to play the album from the start.

Now that we've heard the album, I think that Freedom Rings actually fits pretty well within the project, both in context and sound. The vocals and production sound very similar to what's on B7. I wonder if she'll include it on the deluxe.

It doesn't take away from your enjoyment of the album if others find parts of it lacking. This is a discussion forum so if y'all can sit and praise camper down for his muddy beats then others can say they don't like them.
:hmph:
Yeah but every single thread about the B7 album Annie comes in and repeat themselves at least 10 times about how they don't like it... That's annoying as fuck! We get it. You don't like it. OK... The threads that are made are to praise the album and Annie only comes in with the negativity... It's not necessary.
:plzstop:
So are you suggesting that if someone has something negative to say about the album they start a new topic about it? Yeah, I'm sure that would go over swimmingly :plzstop:
The reason people are posting their dissenting views here is bc it's the only thread discussing the album :dead:

Nobody has a problem with criticism. I think it's gotten to the point where the album was released two weeks ago and ppl are still complaining about something that is NOT changing. Like...let it go. If you don't use, why even enter a thread of people praising? It looks goofy as shit :plzstop:

Same people who say to me the album is done stop with suggestions are now making threads about I wish this song was on b7 or the deluxe. Let me liveee can y'all let me live :dead:
I'm glad brandy is getting the praise and I'm proud of her. I'm glad that I love a big part of the album. I'm not blindly stanning (in the past I really wanted to love everything), I will be honest..i guess I'm just not a camp fan but last time I checked this wasn't Camper Source. I hope this is just a start for her, she deserves the attention she gets and her growth has been amazing.
Anywaysssss

I LOVE it now. I even replayed it today.
The uptempo records are literally the weakest on the album. "I Am More" could've been that girl with a little more working.
Nonetheless, it's a solid project. Not my favorite release of Brandy's but I appreciate where she is/was creatively and I'm proud she was able to tell her story. "Borderline" is record of the year. She might turn 2020 out with that.

Ugh and remember when Kevin McCall send her that goodbye message (threatening suicide), those things must affect Bran.
So glad she left him, he was no good. Eva said he looked up to his friend who killed himself and his gf. It is really scary
I'm a jealous GIRLLLLL!!

Borderline swooped in to KNOCK me upside the head this morning
:stressed:
And then I just looked and it's her 3rd most popular song on Tidal :stressed:
After TBIM and IWBD
This record is TIMELESS BRANDY
:stressed:
Guys, is Brandy gonna shoot videos for Rather Be & No Tomorrow?! Like there's no way she can end the era without video treatments for those
