The coming months will be packed with releases from long-standing greats in the genre looking to capitalize on recent major-label deals.
Brandy
Title TBA (TBA, Motown Records)
The R&B superstar notched her debut entry and first No. 1 on the Independent Albums chart with B7 under her own Brand Nu imprint through eOne Music (now MNRK Music Group) in 2020. Yet, for her eighth album, she returned to her major-label roots after signing with Motown earlier this year — her first such deal in over a decade. "I feel like I'm reborn," Brandy said in June when the signing was announced. "I have a whole new energy, a whole new spark, to keep going, to keep moving and to keep doing what I love to do."

NO release date but its a cute little write up that is hinting towards music this fall maybe?? What do yall think
Dope :gorlonfire:
Well this is some actual news. I don't think they would be talking about it if they didn't have confirmation that music is coming in the fall

Brandyyyyy :stressed:
"I feel like I'm reborn." Not a whole new energy and spark :gorlonfire:
this is gonna be crazy

thats my thought process as well. they have to know something or why even bring it up.
Ciara is resilient
Come on Bran
Hmmm. Let's see.
Not possible music in the fall
and here I was thinking next year
She's been working huh?
:thatssowendy:
Y'all really falling for this? :dead:
And not when she's out there filming a whole movie right now. Fall is next month. The earliest we'll get an album is by movie premiere. Brandy has never been a "lemme record an album in 4 months" kinda girl.

She's doing a lot of things she doesn't normally do. Brandy is in a new era, very unpredictable in the best possible way these days!
:gorlonfire:
It could just be a single.. There wasn't a lot of information here so I'll just expect the least.
They did do that writers camp though. Who knows
Hoping for the best...

well yeah but she isnt indie anymore she is on a label. there is a deadline that some must follow. ALSO filming this movie isnt gonna take long. in the other thread i posted a link to filming times it says AUG-SEPT. this isnt a marvel movie with fight scenes behind a green scene mess and intense rehearsals lol. also you have NO IDEA when she actually started recording.

right. a single could be possible. we are obviously taking it with a grain of salt but its still some info from a reputable site. just gotta hope for the best!
I think the only Norwood/Smith that will come out this year is Ray and Sy'Rai. I think Brandy will have a single out at the top of 2023.
tbh I don't mind an official single at the top of the next year cause that's what I was expecting
but if she's gonna throw out a cute lil appetizer mess this year I wouldn't be mad lol
:traciandchelle:
If Brandy drops this fall I would gag... but I doubt it
Quote from: Harlem on August 26, 2022, 11:43:27 PMIf Brandy drops this fall I would gag... but I doubt it
Me too lol.
Well, so far Ciara is off to a bad start
I liked the snippet of Ciara's second single. When's that dropping? Not sure how I feel about this write up though. I'll let Brandy keep surprising me
STAY TUNED!
WATCH!
THIS TIME AROUND!

It looks funny by itself but I love the song.
Is she still signed to a label? I feel like she releases and then nothing happens
It's good to know Ci is COMING :ohwow:
How's jump doing chartwise?
Quote from: DemetriusRocka 🤴🏾 on August 28, 2022, 12:19:56 AMHow's jump doing chartwise?
I believe it didn't chart on anything. Didn't even bubble
The irony of billboard trying to suck up to her now that they see her momentum but the bias is clear to me. They favor certain artists and rig those charts.Not everything is the radio.

She probably got two albums done already she's on her shit lately.
I don't think Billboard would mention Brandy if there wasn't something in the works for this fall. Sis is going to gag us all still this year. Christmas Movie, First Single from B8 and who knows what else she's got up her sleeve tucked and ready to slay
:roflmao:
Yeah Bran is about to be EVERYWHERE
Around my favorite time of year too :stressed:
I pray we get atleast one Christmas song with the movie :stressed:
bvvvvcvvcc not you sneaking ci in under "r&b icons"

If Motown was smart there would be a 4-5 track Christmas EP coming out this year around the same time as the movie. With one single/ video at least.

What I would really love to see is a first and second single from B8 before the end of the year. I think it would be cool if one of the songs was a love song coming out this winter with a winter vibe.
I'm picturing Faith Evans - I Love You
That single could be included with the Christmas EP too so that it has an official Christmas song single and the wintery love ballad and hopefully also included in the Christmas Movie to be on that soundtrack too. :latisha:
:cheerup:
You guys tried the Khalifia Mints weed? :ack:

If you feel like Brandy's been doing the same ol then idk what to tell you.
I would not be surprised if she tried to match the energy that Full Moon had. I wouldn't really want it to be titled New Moon unless it's going to be similar in sound. Either way the first single will be a banger, not no ballad.
The question is, who is the producer of the new music, we have seen how brandy's music is so determined by the production team she works with
Quote from: The definition on August 29, 2022, 10:56:18 AMThe question is, who is the producer of the new music, we have seen how brandy's music is so determined by the production team she works with
Id like an era where each producer gets 1 or 2 tracks max... So that she can have some variety in production and sound on her album. I want to see some really out of left field surprises. I'm kinda hoping for a song with the band Red Hot Chilli Peppers for example (We know from the Californication era 20 years ago that they love Brandy) It would be amazing to me if one of the songs on the album was fully them playing their instruments and a feature on the hook or something.
This is just an example of how I want to be surprised and gagged by the new stuff.. Something totally different but still legendary status.

yep! and with current producers. i wouldnt mind her linking with rodney or someone like that but only for two songs. also something outta left field! like who expected beyonce to work with skirllex ? no one would of guessed that
I am all game for a album with a variety of sounds and tempos.
I have a weird feeling we're going to get a proper Brandy & Timbaland reunion on this next album
They seem to have reconnected since her Verzuz and the Beat Club writing camps have me skeptical lol

I was just thinking it wouldn't be awful to have an album splitting production duties between Timbaland and Swizz Beatz with a track or two from The Neptunes sprinkled in
