LOS ANGELES (CN) - Pop singer Brandy sued her record label for $1 million Tuesday, claiming it refuses to let her record or release an album, to "bully" her into signing a contract that will let Chameleon Entertainment double dip at her expense.
Brandy Norwood sued New York-based Chameleon Entertainment and its owner-CEO Breyon Prescott in Superior Court.
She claims Prescott, who also works for Epic Records, is trying to double dip: force her to sign with Epic and release her records through Chameleon, so he can profit twice.
She demands $1 million in compensatory damages, plus punitive damages, for intentional interference with contract, interference with business relations, and business law violations.
Norwood, 37, claims that Chameleon is contractually obligated to record and release her albums but refuses to do so unless she signs a "terrible deal."
She says Prescott is doing this in "a blatantly unlawful attempt to bully Norwood into signing a new recording and distribution agreement containing terms far worse than her current agreement. Defendants have made clear through their actions and words that, unless Norwood capitulates and signs this terrible deal, she will remain 'trapped' with a label that won't let her record or release music."
Represented by Allen Grodsky, Norwood says Prescott's "outrageous actions are based on nothing more than greed."
"Prescott owns and operates defendant Chameleon and is employed full time by Epic Records and head of urban A&R," the complaint states. "The new recording and distribution deal that he is trying to force Norwood to sign is with Epic, which allows him to 'double dip': if Prescott can force Norwood to sign the new deal, he will profit both as an owner of Chameleon and through bonuses and other benefits he will get from Epic."
Given this "despicable conduct," she says in the complaint, she has "every right to terminate, and has now terminated, her recording contract with defendants."
Grodsky is with Grodsky & Olecki, in Santa Monica, whose office was not open early Wednesday when this article went to press.

this is some fucking MESS
Not breyon wanting a double coin
she should've never signed that fckin deal
so basically she can't release and album until this is settled right?
He's fuckin TRASH!!!
Expose this bum ass nigga Ghan, expose this nigga!!!!
that is why Slayana came into place. a lot is starting to make sense
and yeah he's really dirty for this.
Wow
OMG :uhh:
Given the bad rep Breyon had in the industry, I was a bit concerned when first learning that Brandy signed with his label. While I think he did extremely well getting Brandy in with the right people and creating a new sound for 2/11 - he's been known for shady business practices.
That said, you ain't hear it from me, but I hear that Jeff Robinson has also been known tone a shady character. I hope for Brandy's sake though, this isn't the case, but only time will tell.
Lastly, aside from personal issues that Brandy may have been dealing with (breakup, depression, etc.) this also partly explains the significant holdup in a new album and/or EP.
Oh he is fucking TRASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is why she was probably trying get around the curb and just release an EP in the meantime!!!!!!!!!!!! BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WANT THIS FAG'S HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok, this one is the real joke or fanmade right?
right???
right????
ok, let me read, because...
Damn, this sucks.
What in the fckin JoJo mess? This can't be happening!
oh wow
so she can't release any new project until she signs the new deal with Epic?
Now everything is making sense, the indie label, the I'm free from her snap chat, No E.P., etc. He better not fight this. Just let her out of the deal.
This is why Ghan ain't sign with Epic either, she got her Sonja on and prolly read that contract to a T smh
I feel so bad for Bran
noooooooooo :'(
OMGGG not Breyon pulling a Dr. Luke... ughhh no wonder Bran was one of the first celebs to join the #freekesha movement
[youtube autoplay=1 width=1 height=1]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0F-IHwgC-Q[/youtube]I hope her lawyers are ready to BATTLE :ohwow:

!!!! but i wonder how she was able to release B&P with no issue
the article says that Brandy has the right to terminate the recording deal. If thats true... it shouldnt take too much time in court right?
He's a piece of shit for this.
This is the last thing she needs right now, but hopefully it ends up becoming a blessing in disguise.
they couldnt find any other pics to use for the article though lol
U knw wh, this makes alot of sense. I wonder if EPs fall under this. I wonder how she got around this for begging and Pleadin then
wow
this explains a lot
no wonder why she empathizes with Ke$ha
I wonder how this will turn out, I hope to God she wins
This isn't good

I guess it depends on how restrictive was the deal she signed on first place.
Do contracts use to block artists to release a song by themself? I mean, is the current label the total owner of her voice and future songs?

She may be able to terminate this deal, but it's possible that it could cause trouble for her if she tries to sign another deal elsewhere, which is probably why she's doing this independent thing. I hope that's not the case.

That's a great question. I dunno, but she might have been like fuck it.
Ch...being a Brandy stan is like a damns roller coaster ride :plzstop:
on other hand..... something tells me Brandy will now go harder than ever with her music career, just to prove none can stop her ever.

Right like :shannonsmissing:
Any court filings are public record unless the case is deemed high interest or contains sensitive information. This is just the filing which means her lawyer has started the process, so Breyon will be getting his chunky ass served any day now.

never understood why y'all were taking issue with her when it was clearly business-related, why everything was delayed
Like I said earlier, this may turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Labels aren't doing shit for artists anymore nowadays. So her going independent might be exactly what she needs, if only for the artistic freedom alone. Without this whole Breyon mess she probably would have never even considered it.
What does this mean for us fans? Can we not get an official album until this MESS is settled? then after it's settled another 3 years until she's signed a new deal and starts recording an album?
I'm a bit worried right now....Ghan just release free EP's then in the meantime gurl.
I know Sonja is HOT!

isnt this a place to have some fun, without rules? me no entender lol
Brandy just needs to hire Sonja back and call it a day.
Now her tweet supporting Ke$ha makes sense. She's going through the same thing
agreed about the free EPs, if this becomes a long process

that phagg Breyon set this up perfectly.
But wait ... Wasn't this around the time her boo Ryan was still handling things
WTDF is going on
I'm PISSED you guys
This crap almost made me quit stanning
And it was all this phaggit Breyon's fault from jump?!!!
I'm so sorry Brandy
:loose2when:
I will say this. Brandy is a seasoned artist. There is no WAY On earth Sonja woulda allowed her to get wrapped up in a janky deal! I know brandy wants her mom to be her mom and not mix that with business but SONJA is the business brain behind the force that is brandy
What in the absolute fuck?!
Why do yall swear sonja can fix evrything :plzstop:
This is a label issue not a management one. Her management seems fine tbfh :dead:
Like everything is gonna somehow become NSN all over again. Who managed her during Full Moon? Afrodisiac?
Well, if she can't release music through a label all the more reason to the release EP...
Sooo Brandy is still signed with Chameleon Records and is still with Breyon? And I hope J. Rob secretly doesn't have anything to do with this mess and tryna be shady as well towards Brandy

folk LOVE to comment on what they don't know.
The music industry is poisonous. There are so many ill-willed dynamics in it. I pray she wins.
And people were dragging her for no damn reason, I knew Brandy wasn't just sitting around making the same mistakes she may have made in the past. Never did trust that Breyon nigger.
And Kwee' has been so professional about it. :'(

That Jeff Robinson stuff is partially true because K. Michelle left him for some dirty shit.
And this whole thing explains why she hasn't been to release the new music

But at the same time.... idk.... it just seems like she should be a little more wise and aware of her decisions by now. Half of the gorls on here (who arent even in the industry) kinda saw this coming from the beginning, just based on his rep in the industry...
Well guys she is aware, which is why she ISN'T signing this deal that he's trying to force.He's trying to hold her music hostage because she won't sign
She can release music but it can't be through a major basically.
So if Bran wants to get a distribution deal with say republic or Universal... Breyon is blocking her, trying to force her to sign with EPIC so that he can get multiple streams of money from the arrangement.
And since Cham/breyon didn't pay for B&P etc.. he has no rights to it because it's under her own imprint..
as far as Jeff is concerned, he is actually helping Bran.. getting her deals and ways to release music around all this nonsense

Brandy just needs to do her own thing. The internet allows you to reach millions of people instantly. If you strategize then you'll be able to capitalize off of that audience. Labels don't provide the support they used to.
The industry has always been shady but since the business is so bad people are behaving more desperately to try to skim as much as they can from these artists.
This thread should be pinned as a reminder to stop tugging on this girl's twists whenever things aren't going according to YOUR plan.

It was last year. And it's released through Slayana Records, so she can what she wants with it - thankfully.
So, it's not likely we'll be getting an album anytime soon then right?

Everybody on here likes to speculate and come with their "source" but unless you are Brandy or are in these actual meetings, you really don't know shit but gossip.
Where were all the "sources" with info on this lawsuit and rift with her and Breyon? From now on, I'm just going to give Brandy the benefit of doubt because every time we (BSource/Starz) get upset about things not working the way we want, it turns out to be something not under Brandy's control.
She is a fucking ICON and people should not be treating her this way, just out of respect alone.

EXACTLY! One advised her to lie changing the trajectory of her whole career and the other ran the shit show that was the afrodisiac era. Jeff at this point seems to be going very hard for her and has been delivering. In my mind, sonja was the one that devised that whole married thing which actually fckd the afri era as well because that's when the whole lie was exposed. In stead of trying to get ahead of that pregnancy, having the foresight to shoot more videos n mess to get the most out of that wasted era. She was busy being out of touch and trying to keep up this good girl image like in 2002 people would shun her for being GROWN and pregnant. Sonja can stay right where she is TBRFHWY

Sonja managed her during FM but she was preggo.
and wasnt Benny Medina with her during during Afro?
EXACTLY! One advised her to lie changing the trajectory of her whole career and the other ran the shit show that was the afrodisiac era. Jeff at this point seems to be going very hard for her and has been delivering. In my mind, sonja was the one that devised that whole married thing which actually fckd the afri era as well because that's when the whole lie was exposed. In stead of trying to get ahead of that pregnancy, having the foresight to shoot more videos n mess to get the most out of that wasted era. She was busy being out of touch and trying to keep up this good girl image like in 2002 people would shun her for being GROWN and pregnant. Sonja can stay right where she is TBRFHWY
!!!!!!!!!! Sonja can stay where she is babysitting Rai.

She can release music but it can't be through a major basically.
So if Bran wants to get a distribution deal with say republic or Universal... Breyon is blocking her, trying to force her to sign with EPIC so that he can get multiple streams of money from the arrangement.
And since Cham/breyon didn't pay for B&P etc.. he has no rights to it because it's under her own imprint..
as far as Jeff is concerned, he is actually helping Bran.. getting her deals and ways to release music around all this nonsense
but wasnt BP recorded some years ago?? how do we know it wasnt under chamillionare?
Some years ago? We literally saw the footage of them recording it like a yr ago
thats why i put a ? mark after cause i wasnt sure.

LOLz and Bran is doing what's best for her at the end of the day, there's a reason why she hasn't got her mom back on the team fully and we need to respect it and let it go lol.
Jeff has been doing a great job so far especially knowing these circumstances.. She should rock with him..

I don't know why y'all are placing the blame solely on Breyoff. Brandy is the one who signed the contract. She's been in the business how many years? Nothing like this shouldn't be even happening. I honestly would love for La Reid to get a hold of her but hopefully they work this out.

But if you read the issues in the article, the issue is NOT the fact that she signed with Chameleon or an issue with the deal she signed with Chameleon. It's the fact that in 2015/2016, Breyon is trying to make her sign a deal with EPIC, a really bad deal as it seems. That has to be a conflict of interest. A la TLC signing management with Pebbles and being signed to Pebble's husband's record label. That sorta thing.

Yeah.This is a mess and also confusing.If Chameleon is housed under Epic and they're responsible for releasing her music, how can she can get out of this or is it the terms of the deal she objects.

this case, She's trying to AVOID signing a bad deal with EPIC but because She's signed with BreyOFF he has to agree with what label she signs with because he'll be ultimately doing business with them too. so he's pretty much not agreeing with her signing with anyone else BUT EPIC. AND that's because he want's to get multiple streams from her sales etc.. as stated in the OP, he wan'ts to double dip into her shit but Bran doesn't want to sign with them because the deal is horrible

She's signed to chameleon
When she signed the deal with they were signed to RCA...
Once RCA dropped Chameleon
Brandy was no longer an RCA girl.. Thus leaving her without a distribution deal but solely signed to the chameleon imprint ...
When they moved.. They presented a contract for epic but bran wants out of the deal in totality

She definitely concocted, encouraged, and even helped her to carry it out. Took her ass on oprah and sat there and told that fairytale ass story. Im sick of the shit, let's call a thing a fckn thing. And she DIDN'T appear huh?hmmm

I don't know why y'all are placing the blame solely on Breyoff. Brandy is the one who signed the contract. She's been in the business how many years? Nothing like this shouldn't be even happening. I honestly would love for La Reid to get a hold of her but hopefully they work this out.
But if you read the issues in the article, the issue is NOT the fact that she signed with Chameleon or an issue with the deal she signed with Chameleon. It's the fact that in 2015/2016, Breyon is trying to make her sign a deal with EPIC, a really bad deal as it seems. That has to be a conflict of interest. A la TLC signing management with Pebbles and being signed to Pebble's husband's record label. That sorta thing.
i think he's saying that her original contract with Cham is the common denominator and why he's able to hold the mess HOSTAGE until she signs an even worse deal.

This is a label issue not a management one. Her management seems fine tbfh :dead:
Like everything is gonna somehow become NSN all over again. Who managed her during Full Moon? Afrodisiac?
Sonja managed her during FM but she was preggo.
and wasnt Benny Medina with her during during Afro?
EXACTLY! One advised her to lie changing the trajectory of her whole career and the other ran the shit show that was the afrodisiac era. Jeff at this point seems to be going very hard for her and has been delivering. In my mind, sonja was the one that devised that whole married thing which actually fckd the afri era as well because that's when the whole lie was exposed. In stead of trying to get ahead of that pregnancy, having the foresight to shoot more videos n mess to get the most out of that wasted era. She was busy being out of touch and trying to keep up this good girl image like in 2002 people would shun her for being GROWN and pregnant. Sonja can stay right where she is TBRFHWY
U think Sonja the one who crafted that idea? Im sure it was a collective decisions on all their parts.
but again we all free to believe what we want.

But that doesn't mean The original deal was a bad deal that she shouldn't have signed. But because she signed an agreement to work with Cham/BreyOFF - Brey feels like she should follow him wherever he goes.... So he's being petty saying basically
"I want you to sign here so i can double dip and if you wanna sign over there, I won't close that deal with you"
This could literally happen to ANYONE. it's not really Brandy's fault.

That and since Brandy finally admitted to being with Wanya when she was underage would mean Sonja have some explaining to do :butwait!:
I think Sonja did a great job but I agree with not romanticizing her because a lot of Brandy's success came from Atlantic's support, her as an artist and the music. Sonja was great in the business sense and she offered protection that only a mother could. Plus our girl is rich because of ha :feelinmyself:
But she also made her fair share of mistakes including what she did to Moesha running the original creators off and putting Ray J on it. She overstepped her boundaries a lot. And she was terrible to 702.

Benny was fired during the Afro era and Sonja took back over.
I THOUGHT SO!
where's sonja. Sonja would never
Please lets cut the shit and stop acting like every era was NSN
!!!
Besides, the whole MOMager mess is late in 2016. It worked in the 90s and
early 00s because there were more opportunities for R&B acts.
Nowadays you need a manager with some pull & strong connections if you're
gonna make moves. As much as I adore & respect Ms. Sonja, I just don't see her doing that in today's industry. No shade.

Now peeps tuggin her twist because she signed a record deal, not realizing Brandy wasnt presented with alot of options during that time.. No shade, but Breyon picked her up when nobody was checking for her. Her brand was at its lowest point.
That was around the time fans were yanking her lace front because there was no hope for an album in sight. Independent wasnt really the THING back then.
She signed the deal, we got 2/11. She was making lemonade w/ her lemons and she was working around it. Its the new shit Bran has issue with and that would be a better focus.

I agree. If we knew then what we know now Brandy would not have had to settle for such a deal. She still sells more than a lot of other R&B singers but back then (after a human came out) people were counting her out and understandably so. R&B singers can only go but so far now.
Sorry for being so hard on you Bran...

I think her music for this go round is fine. I dont think we'll feel any real damages from this until she attempts her full on studio release.
With that said if she gets out of it. Bran should stay Independent and just release songs a video.
I think the idea of albums is dated. Just keep releasing songs n visuals w/ an occasional EP
This is so fucked up. Amazing how my instincts about some of her people are being confirmed bit by bit. Hopefully she can get closure soon and really live her hashtag of #FREEDOM.
Eek
This is fucked
QuoteGiven this "despicable conduct," she says in the complaint, she has "every right to terminate, and has now terminated, her recording contract with defendants."
OK so reading over this for a third time, it would appear as if she has already terminated her contract with Chameleon and is suing them for financial losses, as well as POSSIBLY beating them to the punch before they sue her for terminating the contract. That's what I think is happening. I think this is really just to cover her ass as she moves forward because we know she's been recording and releasing music and plan to continue to do so. The rumors about her signing with epic sprouted a year or so or go so this isn't new to her, or her plans.

sounds like that was Breyons HOPE but I don't think she's signing wth no damn epic records
Especially with him being head of A&R. Can't imagine her wanting to deal with him in ANY way. He'd find a way to sabotage her project even in the smallest way

All this does is explain why everything took forever and we were all pissed and frustrated. The performance and video to follow? That's all still coming lol I wouldn't be all that worried y'all. This has probably been going on a while and we're just now catching wind of it
I knew of their turmoil back during the DYK campaign (and so did she btw) and he's always been a snake

She can release music but it can't be through a major basically.
So if Bran wants to get a distribution deal with say republic or Universal... Breyon is blocking her, trying to force her to sign with EPIC so that he can get multiple streams of money from the arrangement.
And since Cham/breyon didn't pay for B&P etc.. he has no rights to it because it's under her own imprint..
as far as Jeff is concerned, he is actually helping Bran.. getting her deals and ways to release music around all this nonsense
disgusting.
this industry is so a MESS omg :dead:
Glad Bran is business savvy; but it just keeps her in a rock and hard place at the same time.

yea ... ch.
why did Ghan sign with a damn Chameleon and not a major label from jump? No shade
Shes BRANDY..like..it never made sense to me.
And what worries me most is..can she even win this case?
Does she even have a leg to stand on?
If you signed the contract with Chameleon Im sure there's a clause in there that says she'll fall under the label and rules of Breyon and what not regardless of the label theyre currently on. Hence the RCA dropping and now them going under Epic.
If she signed something that agreed to that, how can she win?
Shes honestly gonna have to create a movement; an under the radar kinda mess.
This is is gonna be tough musically in the in between time.
Yikes. What a mess! Well, I am just going to pray this works out in Brandy's favor. She doesn't deserve this. Her voice is in its prime and we are being deprived.

I wasnt aware of this last part.
Okay so the BreyOFF thing is real.
Shes gotten that nigga OFF her. I wonder whats next?
Looking for another label?
Stay Independent?
I wonder what the specifics are about Epic that she doesn't want to sign with them so much. I mean if it's just because she doesn't want Breyon to get paid twice that's kinda petty, but I'll give Bran benefit of the doubt.

Ch...being a Brandy stan is like a damns roller coaster ride :plzstop:

just when we thought the ride was over it took a sharp left and went back up the damn hill :plzstop:
ch. this clearly don't stop no show :dead: she's working and moving! That's why Breyon is pissed :kii:
All this does is explain why everything took forever and we were all pissed and frustrated. The performance and video to follow? That's all still coming lol I wouldn't be all that worried y'all. This has probably been going on a while and we're just now catching wind of it
I knew of their turmoil back during the DYK campaign (and so did she btw) and he's always been a snake

she needs to revamp that song and put it on the next album :supluv:

Now everything is making sense, the indie label, the I'm free from her snap chat, No E.P., etc. He better not fight this. Just let her out of the deal.
!!!! but i wonder how she was able to release B&P with no issue
I guess it depends on how restrictive was the deal she signed on first place.
Do contracts use to block artists to release a song by themself? I mean, is the current label the total owner of her voice and future songs?
I think there is owning artists and then owning music right
Usually there are exsclusivity clauses but i dont think the contract was air tight

I wonder what the specifics are about Epic that she doesn't want to sign with them so much. I mean if it's just because she doesn't want Breyon to get paid twice that's kinda petty, but I'll give Bran benefit of the doubt.

Well it stated that she didn't want to sign the horrible deal with EPIC and Breyon was trying to FORCE her to do so.. He didn't have her best interest and was just thinking about his own benefit of getting double paid.
So she would have been locked in a horrible contract and getting her profits dipped into double...
It's a combo of avoiding a bad contract, being blocked from signing other deals, BreyOFF double dipping etc...
I don't see that as petty at all..

If you signed the contract with Chameleon Im sure there's a clause in there that says she'll fall under the label and rules of Breyon and what not regardless of the label theyre currently on. Hence the RCA dropping and now them going under Epic.
If she signed something that agreed to that, how can she win?
Shes honestly gonna have to create a movement; an under the radar kinda mess.
This is is gonna be tough musically in the in between time.
it would appear that she's fine tbh :dead: the contract is terminated Hun. She signed wth them because she's been doing that since human
Distribution deals without signing with majors completely. Now, she definitely chose the wrong people (again) but it's still smart in theory. There's no reason for her to sign to a major because you see how that's been "working out" for these other girls
One of the main reasons she's going the independent route now is
because she's BRANDY. Full and complete utter control, period. Y'all are taking this as a Jojo situation and it ain't. Jojo couldn't put out a damn THING because she was hamstrung and stuck and didn't have the name and pull Brandy does. She couldn't create her own imprint, not even jokingly :dead:
Things are moving and still coming! She ain't blocked from putting shit out and booking stages. She's blocked from signing yet another distribution deal ... For NOW. She'll win the case

OK so reading over this for a third time, it would appear as if she has already terminated her contract with Chameleon and is suing them for financial losses, as well as POSSIBLY beating them to the punch before they sue her for terminating the contract. That's what I think is happening. I think this is really just to cover her ass as she moves forward because we know she's been recording and releasing music and plan to continue to do so. The rumors about her signing with epic sprouted a year or so or go so this isn't new to her, or her plans.

its because he's a snake, and could possibly sabotage her further. Why be associated with that? He's known for being this way and screwing a lot of other artists
He's HEAD of urban A&R over there. She'd be shaking hands with the devil yet again and that just wouldn't be smart. It would satisfy no one but him and some impatient fans, only for them to complain again because something went tragically wrong
Well I guess BreyOFF makes sense now. Disgusting faggot.

Entertainment Weekly has picked up the story and has provided some additional details that weren't in the original report:
http://www.ew.com/article/2016/03/30/brandy-lawsuit
QuoteBrandy Norwood, the 37-year-old singer behind hits like ?Have You Ever?? and ?The Boy Is Mine,? has filed suit against her record label Chameleon Entertainment and its president, Breyon Prescott, according to documents obtained by EW.
In the complaint, filed with L.A.?s Superior Court on Tuesday, the singer alleges her label ?will not pay for her to record new albums or allow her to otherwise release music to her fans? in ?a blatantly unlawful attempt to bully Norwood into signing a new recording and distribution agreement containing terms far worse than her current agreement.?
Brandy is seeking $1 million in compensatory damages. The documents allege that Prescott, who is reportedly employed by Epic Records as a head of A&R, attempted to have Norwood sign a new recording and distribution contract with the label, which would allow the company to profit from Norwood?s acting and touring projects.
The lawsuit also alleges that Chameleon balked after Brandy released 2012?s Two Eleven, which was supposed to be the first of a five-album deal. The allegations suggests that ?pursuant to the Agreement, Chameleon was obligated to pay recording costs for the second album in the amount of $600,000,? 10 percent of which it would owe ?promptly following receipt of notice that Norwood had commenced recording of the second album.?
But according to the lawsuit, ?events occurred that led Defendants to want to delay Norwood from working on her second album.? Norwood?s legal team alleges that RCA, the label that distributed Norwood?s albums on behalf of Chameleon, terminated its distribution deal for her albums leaving Chameleon ?in a bind.?
Additionally, the lawsuit alleges that Chameleon suspended Norwood?s contract in April 2014, sending her a letter wherein the company accused her attorney of telling Chameleon?s president that she had ?failed to cooperate? with the label.
In January, Brandy released a new single ?Beggin & Pleadin? and spoke to EW about new music: ?There?s definitely [an album] in the works. I?m recording in Los Angeles. I?m working, singing, and I?m ready. Nothing is going to get in my way.?
Reps for Brandy, Epic, and Chameleon did not immediately respond to EW?s request for comment.

QuoteBrandy is suing a record label that she says has refused to allow her to release new music.
The Grammy-winning singer sued Chameleon Entertainment Group in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday, claiming it won't allow her to record or release new music in an attempt to get her to sign a new recording deal.
The suit says Brandy signed with Chameleon in 2011, which released her album "Two Eleven" in 2012. The deal gave Chameleon the option to release four more Brandy records, but her suit says the label refused to allow her to record a new album.
The lawsuit says Brandy terminated her contract with Chameleon but wants a judge's ruling that it is void.
An email sent to Chameleon seeking comment was not immediately returned Wednesday.

QuoteBrandy sued a record label for more than $1 million, alleging breach of an agreement to record albums.
The 37-year-old singer?s Los Angeles Superior Court lawsuit against Chameleon Entertainment Inc. and its president, Breyon Prescott, alleges intentional interference with contract and business relations as well as a violation of the state Business & Professions Code.
A representative for Chameleon Entertainment could not be immediately reached for comment.
The suit states Brandy and Chameleon entered a recording contract in May 2011. The label released the singer?s first album under a five-album deal in October 2012, but suspended the agreement in April 2014 to delay having to pay her, the suit alleges.
Chameleon Entertainment then tried to convince Brandy to agree to a new recording and distribution contract with Epic Records that would have required her to pay Epic 15 percent of all income she earned from acting, touring and live engagements, the suit alleges.
As a result of the suspension, Brandy has been unable to complete the second album under the agreement, according to her court papers. She was owed $60,000 as of the time she announced she was beginning work on the second album, the suit alleges.
Chameleon Entertainment has refused to lift the suspension of the agreement, accordoing to the lawsuit.

You can't hold back God's work! :-P
A 5 album deal? Damn. But I remember that Sean Garrett interview where he said $700,000 was spent on 2/11. And the article states the second album they would have paid $600,000. I think signing a deal for that many albums is a double-edge sword. If you sign a one or two album deal, the label may not invest as much into your albums and promo. If you sign a 5 album deal, they may hold you hostage.
This is all mess. But I don't have access to anyone's contract so I'm not going to speculate.

She was probably optimistic and believed he had her best interest. I'm sure she didn't expect anything shady to happen. Just a lesson learned. I'm not gonna blame her for anything. I have a feeling that she genuinely wanted to release music much sooner.
And Brandy is TOO established as a singer and as an actress to sign anyone's 360 deal.
I don't think anyone with her acting credits should have to sign one.

She was probably optimistic and believed he had her best interest. I'm sure she didn't expect anything shady to happen. Just a lesson learned. I'm not gonna blame her for anything. I have a feeling that she genuinely wanted to release music much sooner.
!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree. I think she was eager to get music out to us. She wanted to make us proud but for what the 2/11 era was worth compared to the rest of her eras/catalog it was NOT worth it. :fuming:
I hope all these artists that praise her supports her! I'll be livid if I don't see support from the industry... I'm sure they will but im just sayin...
This is such a damn mess... Guys, this might take years
:hmph: :hmph:
Why would it take years?
I will WASH Breyon on site if I ever catch him at a media or industry event that fuckin armadillo in the face, slime ass nigga smfh

why did Ghan sign with a damn Chameleon and not a major label from jump? No shade
Shes BRANDY..like..it never made sense to me.
And what worries me most is..can she even win this case?
Does she even have a leg to stand on?
If you signed the contract with Chameleon Im sure there's a clause in there that says she'll fall under the label and rules of Breyon and what not regardless of the label theyre currently on. Hence the RCA dropping and now them going under Epic.
If she signed something that agreed to that, how can she win?
Shes honestly gonna have to create a movement; an under the radar kinda mess.
This is is gonna be tough musically in the in between time.
it would appear that she's fine tbh :dead: the contract is terminated Hun. She signed wth them because she's been doing that since human
Distribution deals without signing with majors completely. Now, she definitely chose the wrong people (again) but it's still smart in theory. There's no reason for her to sign to a major because you see how that's been "working out" for these other girls
One of the main reasons she's going the independent route now is because she's BRANDY. Full and complete utter control, period. Y'all are taking this as a Jojo situation and it ain't. Jojo couldn't put out a damn THING because she was hamstrung and stuck and didn't have the name and pull Brandy does. She couldn't create her own imprint, not even jokingly :dead:
Things are moving and still coming! She ain't blocked from putting shit out and booking stages. She's blocked from signing yet another distribution deal ... For NOW. She'll win the case
Haha, that's my BITCH! :plzstop:

http://westsidetoday.com/2016/03/30/brandy-sued-record-label-alleged-breach-agreement/
QuoteBrandy sued a record label for more than $1 million, alleging breach of an agreement to record albums.
The 37-year-old singer?s Los Angeles Superior Court lawsuit against Chameleon Entertainment Inc. and its president, Breyon Prescott, alleges intentional interference with contract and business relations as well as a violation of the state Business & Professions Code.
A representative for Chameleon Entertainment could not be immediately reached for comment.
The suit states Brandy and Chameleon entered a recording contract in May 2011. The label released the singer?s first album under a five-album deal in October 2012, but suspended the agreement in April 2014 to delay having to pay her, the suit alleges.
Chameleon Entertainment then tried to convince Brandy to agree to a new recording and distribution contract with Epic Records that would have required her to pay Epic 15 percent of all income she earned from acting, touring and live engagements, the suit alleges.
As a result of the suspension, Brandy has been unable to complete the second album under the agreement, according to her court papers. She was owed $60,000 as of the time she announced she was beginning work on the second album, the suit alleges.
Chameleon Entertainment has refused to lift the suspension of the agreement, accordoing to the lawsuit.
ooooh ok so they owe HER money lmao glad we got that cleared up

this is seriously fuck yup.....i see why Bran created Slayana records
Real talk, Brandy makes bad decisions when it comes to business and career a lot(we can go thru the list). A headline about an industry Veteran suing a label for you to put out Your own music is embarrassing.
I remember shaking my head back in 2012 saying what the Hell is a Chameleon Records? But I remember Brandy saying in an interview that her cousin Ryan introduced her to Breyon on the night of that show she did in LA @ the Key Club and she felt like he had her back. Buuuut in 2013 she did another interview where she said RCA was behind her doing a 3rd single and video but it was Breyon's decision and him holding it up so that was a clue that the relationship with Chameleon was getting rocky, And we all know the 2/11 movement pretty much ended after that.
So at the end of the day Brandy needs to get it together and have better judgement or hire a consultant to tell her to not fall for the first idiot with a recording contract and promises.

agreed with most of ur post but she was immediately against him after this point.
I do know that for an absolute fact. i just couldn't say much or pretend to be in the know when we were doing that campaign.

Clearly not everyone is reading for comprehension.
It's obvious her deal with Chameleoon was a good deal on paper. It wasn't until the RCA distribution for Chameleon ended and Breyon went to work for EPIC did things start to get rocky. I recall the board noticing the change on the Chameleon site a few years ago odd and everyone wondering if Brandy was going to EPIC with Chameleon.
I'm certain that her 5 album deal had some very solid things in it.
And it's not sad, many large artists have had label and contract issues including MJ, Prince, and Toni Braxton. There is nothing embarrassing about getting your legal shit straight so a motherfucker can't come back in 3 years when you've earn certifications and awards and have sold out tours.

I recall a Ray J interview before a couple years ago where he mentioned labels wanting Brandy to sign a 360 deal and he pretty much said she would never because she knew she deserved better than that.
Quote from: IQoniK on March 30, 2016, 08:59:34 PM
Real talk, Brandy makes bad decisions when it comes to business and career a lot(we can go thru the list). A headline about an industry Veteran suing a label for you to put out Your own music is embarrassing.
I remember shaking my head back in 2012 saying what the Hell is a Chameleon Records? But I remember Brandy saying in an interview that her cousin Ryan introduced her to Breyon on the night of that show she did in LA @ the Key Club and she felt like he had her back. Buuuut in 2013 she did another interview where she said RCA was behind her doing a 3rd single and video but it was Breyon's decision and him holding it up so that was a clue that the relationship with Chameleon was getting rocky, And we all know the 2/11 movement pretty much ended after that.
So at the end of the day Brandy needs to get it together and have better judgement or hire a consultant to tell her to not fall for the first idiot with a recording contract and promises.
Well, Brandy is over all this ok. So just get ready for her. Damn! :uhh:

They had dealings with Oscar winning singer Jamie Foxx prior. If people didn't know Breyon's work, they atleast heard of his fight with Jamie.

She was signed a 5 album deal wtf and they wanted it to be 360 in order for her to continue to release new music. WTF

And cut out that CLEARLY! Obviously! shit. I'm sure all of us are replying based off assumptions.
wow Drae got dragged in here tbh
I hate that she has to go through this . Everyone makes mistakes and hopefully Brandy will make better choices down the road . Hopefully we won't have to wait for a long time to get new music after all this ...

yes!! Well damn SAID
He's head urban a&r at epic records.....I remember when Miguel old manager was the head of urban a&r at RCA he kept getting singles. He sold like 11k first week and kept releasing lol...
He was double dipping also lol.
I wish Bran the best.

im sure he wasn't on drugs and doing shady mess behind the scenes TO Miguel though. Maybe
for Miguel, but there's a difference
Double dipping where? All Miguel does is music. The fuck? A 360 deal wouldn't make his label any money :dead: Brandy does it ALL and she'd be retarded to shake hands with this devil yet AGAIN just to get a third single and a video. The hell would that do? Her sanity is a bit more important
comparing those situations is asinine at best, when they're in no way shape or form similar

Well I don't know what the man does in his personal life, but I do know that A LOT of folks in the industry does recreational drugs.
I want to correct myself. Mark Pitts was TRIPLE dipping. Meaning he was getting paid from Miguel by managing him, Miguel was signed to his label imprint through RCA AND he was employed by RCA.
Breyon is double dipping like the article says because he's employed by Epic and would make money off of Brandy through his imprint with Epic Records.
It's definitely different because when Breyon was with RCA I don't think he held a position but just his imprint was signed with RCA so he had no pull like someone like Mark Pitts who was head of urban (now the president).
I didn't see her contract and neither have you, so I cant say if she had a 360 or not, and I don't think they were referring that to double dipping.
Also I wasn't implying that she should take the deal, I just remembered that and posted it.
Much love to Bran.

And cut out that CLEARLY! Obviously! shit. I'm sure all of us are replying based off assumptions.
But we don't know if the original deal she signed was a bad deal per say. The problem appears to be the new deal they were trying to force her into. And then being petty when she didn't sign.
Mariah Carey just signed a several album deal with Epic. If anything, I can see why an established artists would want to sign a multi album deal. It's comfort and believe it or not MANY veterans artist sign multi album deals when they renegotiate or mover labels. If it is presented as appealing.
I'm sure the sales of Two Eleven played apart as well. I get she doesn't want to give 15% to Epic but what does she expect? If she's gonna independent then yeah but no label is gonna give her a deal like she's had before. She doesn't have the track record for the old standard deal. It sucks but this is the business in 2016.
I hope that man gives her, her coin and she invest that money into her next album because she's gonna need it. I'm gonna pray for her.

Well they must have recouped their money back from 211 because she doesn't owe them any money so it's not like they lost money. And there are better options then a 360 deal if she was/is fighting to avoid it so she can sign another deal if she wants.
So many fags sitting here talking about labels and contracts when all u got is a 8$/hour deal with McDonalds...

Nah the fact that he gave up on her after the sales came in says otherwise. RCA even terminated distribution there after. On the 360 deal I'm sure if there we're other options she would've took them instead of this. J remember back in 2010 Universal Republic wanted to sign Brandy to a two album option/conditional offer, she should've took it. Same deal they gave Kelly? and she left after the 2nd album and signed to another label already. I know the longer contracts are more money and the advance is larger but to avoid them digging, it seems like a good option.

HE didn't give up on anything. He took a better opportunity at Epic and she could've followed him if she wanted to foolishly do so, apparently
TwoEleven sales were right on par with everyone else at that time. Certainly not bad enough to abandon ship
But even IF you're right and u very well could be, I'm glad it all happened. She's about to slay us so fucking hard :kii: starting tomorrow and April 5th when they AIR the performance on tv 👏🏾👏🏾

If she's gonna independent then yeah but no label is gonna give her a deal like she's had before. She doesn't have the track record for the old standard deal. It sucks but this is the business in 2016.
I hope that man gives her, her coin and she invest that money into her next album because she's gonna need it. I'm gonna pray for her.
Well they must have recouped their money back from 211 because she doesn't owe them any money so it's not like they lost money. And there are better options then a 360 deal if she was/is fighting to avoid it so she can sign another deal if she wants.
Nah the fact that he gave up on her after the sales came in says otherwise. RCA even terminated distribution there after. On the 360 deal I'm sure if there we're other options she would've took them instead of this. J remember back in 2010 Universal Republic wanted to sign Brandy to a two album option/conditional offer, she should've took it. Same deal they gave Kelly? and she left after the 2nd album and signed to another label already. I know the longer contracts are more money and the advance is larger but to avoid them digging, it seems like a good option.
HE didn't give up on anything. He took a better opportunity at Epic and she could've followed him if she wanted to foolishly do so, apparently
TwoEleven sales were right on par with everyone else at that time. Certainly not bad enough to abandon ship
But even IF you're right and u very well could be, I'm glad it all happened. She's about to slay us so fucking hard :kii: starting tomorrow and April 5th when they AIR the performance on tv 👏🏾👏🏾
!!! and again it's not like he lost money or she would be owing HIM/Cham lolz
And he was willing to Put up yet another $600K but didn't pay up because he couldn't bully her into a 360 Deal lolz
But whew, can't wait for this BGR performance and B&P video.. yes Bran!
Lmfao wow great points Virgo
