I believe she mentioned him in her speech tonight.
If so, I LOVE it.
As long as he ain't a crook...I'm ok with it. :)
This feels right!
I like him too. Seems to be someone who knows what he's doing. Maybe he had something to do with Bran landing the role on Star. Still wanna see ha do blockbuster films.
oh lord
Ok, Steven! He got a lot of credibility so I hope he does her right and understands her as a music artist. This eOne thing I?m a little nervous about and Brandy better be ready to use her own coin to make sure she gives QUALITY
I?m not getting excited about another manager.
And he mentioned he?s worked with Benny Medina. Benny messed up the AFRO era.
What happened with that fat dude Jeff from a few years back?
Idk but he was good too. I know he?s busy with all that H.E.R. success right now

There was too many things going on to blame that on Benny. He has done wonders for both Mariah and J-Lo. I do not believe he was the problem and brandy got rid of him too fast. I don?t think even worked for her a year.

I agree. I dont think Benny was all the blame either. The thing about Brandy is I feel like if something is not successful, she ready for a new team. Hopefully now she will stick with this team this time no matter what. Give them time to help her win.

And he promoted the heck outta that album. She?s was everywhere for about four straight months. The only thing I questioned was her performing on the bet awards red carpet and not the show, but I?m sure the success of her single was the answer. Brandy should?ve stayed with him and push out as many singles as possible/mini-tour/and Quickly put out another album.

I remember that too. He wanted four singles for Afro. He wanted to keep pushing it. Brandy was over it cause she was over it cause it didnt what she wanted it to do. I think I tried would save that era too for sure.

She wanted out because they put her on the urban/hip hop division and all the people she had known at the label were gone.
It was stated in an interview that she let Benny go because of differences in direction and because she needed a manager she could call in the middle of the night when she needed to.
AFRO era was a mess. Dropping a manager in the middle of album promotion has to be hard.
I remember he wanted to release I Tried and Where You Wanna Be with T.I at the same time and then release True as just a radio single. I think he would had saved the album.
I think she gonna win this time tho. The set up already seem good.

Well, she was about to go on tour with Usher but once she left Benny, Kanye took her spot.
Don?t know him
But I have high hopes either way

This set up all sounds amazing tbh. It?s seems like she pretty much did it to herself and just threw in the towel. A dual single mess, a radio single and a fucking tour with Usher who was killing with confessions at the time.. Brandy girl... :-/
From my memory she let Benny go AFTER the tour fell apart. And Atlantic stopped putting money in the project which is why those last two songs didn?t come like Brandy wanted. But whatever lol
Steven has been her Manager for a couple years now through Primary Wave. Whatever his track record, I?m just glad it sounds like they are on the same page and I hope they work the shit out of this album together.

I think that 4-5 straight months and gold was because of Sonja & Bran lol
According to this article Brandy fires him before the album even came out
https://www.today.com/popculture/brandy-gets-personal-new-album-wbna5245603
?Just two weeks before her new album?s release, Brandy severed ties with manager Benny Medina of Handprint Entertainment. Her mother, Sonja Norwood, has assumed full management responsibility under the Norwood & Norwood banner.?
Afro era was when I first started stanning for Bran. The album was amazing but all of her promo performances were a lip synched mess.
I also hated her performing on the BET red carpet, Monica did the same the year before. For both of them I felt bad and couldn?t believe they would accept that!
V
Bet was trash for that
But they accepted it ..
I really have high hopes for this era..and she is looking the TF amazing.. mama ready to cut
They definitely triiiied it
They deserved a main stage tea

Which is crazy for both of them, especially since Monica had a #1 r&b record and Top 10 on Hot 100 with ?So Gone?
!!!
Pure MESS tbh
& the #1 album in the country that day
I hope it all works out.
