2/11 was the greatest album of 2012 in my opinion. I listen to it now and bish..I just don't know what happened.

:uhh:

like I pass damn near every song.

I still use half of the album, but the only songs I really go back to are Without You, DYK and WYLA.

Honestly, Two Eleven wasn't ground breaking but it was fire. Only song I skip, which has always been a skip imo, is No Such Thing as Too Late.

I hate most things by Rico Love...basic ass

pop

She made the right album at the right time ... it's was one of the best album of 2012,, she couldn't make no creative album that would've been to risky 2/11 did what it had to do to prove Bran could make a album
with a current sound

BrandyFromTheFuture

My favorite 2/11 song is Wildest Dreams and that is a modern day Brandy classic. Fight me!

There were no bad songs but nothing that really sticks with you or makes you want to revisit often.

WITHOUT YOU was the standout when the album came out but I wore it out that first week. But the rare times I go back to listen to it (which may be only a couple times in the past year) I really live for it.

The songs are just forgettable basically. But if I put it in I'd listen to it.

Slower
DYKWYH
PID
Without you
Hardly breathing
Wildest dreams

Dass it. It does not hold up to the rest of her catalog.

Human>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Two Eleven in every single way possible.

!!!!

Yeah, 2/11 is by far her worst album. It just feels like a bunch of songs thrown together to sound current. Human may have been too AC/poppy but it still felt like more of a Brandy album, with the effort put into it. Anyone could have released 2/11.

I'm listening to 2/11 right now, I don't agree with the last part of your comment. 2/11 is still a BRANDY album. I can't think of another artist who even has the same musical ear as brandy. Like she finds hidden places to tuck harmonies and notes lol. 2/11 still has some good Brandy elements in it vocally. She MADE those songs. But I can agree that I feel like they wanted it to be a current sound of R&B at the time
Two Eleven is NOT a Brandy album. That album is her worst album period.


Not when Human exists  :shannonsmissing:

In reality, Brandy has no bad album but Human is her weakest.
