Brandysource has turned into the Shaderoom, So much negativity. If I was her and came to a board that was ?dedicated? to me and read all these nasty comments I wouldn?t rush to put out anything either. You guys will be ungrateful either way...
I think about this quite often. She used to visit here, not sure if she does anymore. I?d hate for her to see some of the negativity/messiness here. I do, however, think people have every right to be upset. But some do too much. The constant complaining and tepid dragging just becomes corny after a while.
I mean I get being mad at her for a missing the show. But it?s been happening before that as well. This board is where Brandy is supposed to be able to come and feel positive about her fanbase.
Brandy has fucked over her fanbase time and time again. Blind loyalty is dead at this point. If brandy comes here and has an issue with things that are being said then she should blame herself. People have reached their wits end and this is where we all are, sorry. This was essentially a relationship that we were in with her. U dont get to do people any kinda way and expect them to still be there when u need them. I wouldve never thought id be where i am with her but it is what it is.
I?m not going to say she?s been the most transparent or the best at communicating, but I wouldn?t say cancelling one shows equates to her fucking over her fans. This is the same woman who learns fans? names by heart, invites some of them into her life, have given some of them her direct contact info, takes the time to sing with them, has taken the time to meet each and every one of them after shows ?when most stars charge for meet and greets. I think we tend to constantly look at this through a very narrow lens. At the end of the day, I doubt she?s sitting somewhere asking herself how can she make her fans angrier. I get the frustration for the music, most of us get to that point. I, myself, make jokes about the #summer2014 thing. But at the end of the day, the music business is still a business and she had contractual obligations and other people signing the checks when it comes to her project and it?s promotion. It?s pretty well documented that she tried to work on an album since 2/11 but the label she was signed to wouldn?t put up the money and she couldn?t release anything until that court situation was over. None of us know the real details of the settlement; it could be that she had to give up the rights to everything she recorded since 2/11.
I stopped getting excited about coded social media posts and fan speculation a long time ago. It really helps with getting over the disappointing moments.
