Alright, Queen!
Not the Different World theme song forcing her to do a full voiced lead vocal
Come on BRAN! She regaining her confidence
That's amazing. Aretha's version is classic. I hope Brandy's is just as iconic.
Queen
So Bran has done the theme song for
Moesha (duh)
Zoe (duh)
Family Business
Sesame Beginnings
The View
Now A Different World
am I missing any?
Baby this will be iconic. All of our black sitcoms have amazing theme songs that we cherish
Rather have her on the show but cute!!

I was literally just coming on here to post this. I'm kinda SHOOK tbh. They got Aretha to do the other and BRANDY to do this one. She really is a mf legend huh

She just might make an appearance!
Yes Queen. Booked self.
She sounds great! Not the production style I was hoping for but it doesn't sound like she did too much with the backs so I'm happy.
Bitchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Brandy being asked to do it really puts her in the Aretha-ness of it all.
Reminds me of when Angie Stone said she knew Brandy was the next "little miss Aretha Franklin" in terms of influence when she heard "I Wanna Be Down."
Legend self.
:blessed:
Such a fkn flex!!! And Aretha absolutely adored Brandy and would approve!!!!
:flamebroiled: :gorlonfire: :flamebroiled:
Things are finally coming full circle for Brandy
I get the production critiques but to me the production is very NOW and I see it being very fitting for this version. Does anyone know if its gonna be JUST sitcom or will there be a dramatic aspect as well?

You gotta get with the times baby...even the way she is singing it is intentional as we all know she could've taken the Aretha route but this hits

I don't think it's sitcom, especially with the type of camera they used...just a dramatized version
Yassssssss bitch sang!! Gag us

yea I'm feeling a dramatic element as well. It fits imo
I liked Boyz II Men's version of this too
SING BRANDY!!!
Aretha's version was the BEST from the original series. I believe she recorded it in one take.
BIIM was good too, however, I didn't particularly care for Phoebe Snow's version.
OK BRANDY!!! Love this for her!!!

Issa diffrin whirrrlll :stressed:
Boyz II Men's version is my least favorite of the three previous.
Boyz 2 men is my least favorite.

I never got to get into this show, and for some reason I feel like it's "before my time" a bit

When I was younger I felt the same way. I used to change the channel quickly. I had no interest then, however I rediscovered it while attending college and fell in love with it and the characters.
Does she not realize this is where her voice shines?? Sometimes less is MORE :wub:
Yea I was proud of her when I heard that ONE sustained background "ha" and that one run afterwards. nnnnn

She doesn't. That's why she needs people around her who have a clear objective of what they want.
If Brandy's team is on her...pitch her to do a full soundtrack for a film or something.
This is so iconic and legendary! I love this for Brandy. Love that she is taking all of opportunities that have been coming her way.
I do wish she gave a Moesha or collegiate styling for this to fully connect the dots... some braids, a Hillman crew neck, varsity, or cardigan... her branding be off 😭
They had my bitch sanging alongside that MAGA Doll. I wish they kept this intro

You're LOST, hun. 🧠
Clearly Netflix, Bran, and producer of this version are attempting to capture the younger audience with this reboot.
Hence the theme song being converted into a Trap version :uhh:
i'm not lost babe. i understand exactly why it's that
i just don't like vccx :uhh:
pls don't become unnecessarily defensive over this. it's dope that bran will be doing the theme ✨
kwee sounds and looks amazing :stressed: booked n busy self
https://youtu.be/LopZDwJztlk
So that lack of enunciation/mumble singing stuff she has been doing is by choice.
Got It!
I understand her so clearly here. :flamebroiled:

their voices don't blend at all. Nicole's tone :uhh:
But it kinda worked out at the end when she's belting

That's better cause I hate clicking links and clicking out :dead:
Bran just release a belting/soulful version to shut these hags up. They keep mentioning Fantasia, Keke Wyatt, Jennifer and Jazmine...these hoes only know them same 4 singers that they call for every tribute but when they drop an album it sells 4K copies.
:overit: :roflmao:
The outrage be so fake

I HATEEEEE seeing Jen being apart of any tribute. Like hateeeeeeee. It's automatic don't watch if she is included
It's also super annoying how some act like bran can't sing and every song has to be screamed the fuck out Loud.

Girl yes...be the same ppl selling out shows for Sza, Summer Walker and Mariah the Scientist...like in what universe are we living in right now that you think a shows theme song centered around Gen Z would have all that yelling
The gorls tend to act like they have AMNESIA when it comes to Brandy and the topic of power/vocal ability.
As if "Beggin' & Pleadin'" doesn't exist 🙄
