I wonder if she's beefing with her label

Yeah, I'm quite sure these other "obstacles" are label related. What else would it be?

I'm not fuming as much as I was now. But listening to what she said, on her end,  she needs to stop being so indecisive on the music. Pick a direction and go with it.

She said she's always known what this next project should sound like. I'll find the interview later, but it's about finding the right people (according to her) to bring her vision to life. This isn't the human era where she didn't have a vision or voice. 

There are many things I'm frustrated with, but ever since that interview, indecisiveness is the last thing I've been getting

She just said one day she likes a song, the next day she don't like it. Then someone else will listen to it and then she starts liking it again. That's like the definition of indecisive.

If she released more frequently she  wouldn't have time to overthink it, which really wouldn't matter because she'd be on to the next sound or musical phase. For instance, a Bran Nu project could have came and went (been 3 albums ago) and could've been received well, but she and the rest of the world will never know...

The thing is the Human era has a lot to do with this ...
But u see what really bothers me.. When she and other fans blame others for the human album

No one put a gun to her head and made her do that mess
And a lot of fans LOVE that album (not me of course)
So it's a bad look to see her back pedal on projects because they weren't  well received..
Because TBH she should feel how she feels about Human towards "put it down"
Sis is wishy washy.. All of the place.. Like Aquarians are..
It's kinda as simple as that

She did have a voice during the human album..
That's the direction SHE wanted to go following the accident..
Like stop..
Don't blame that Alber on nobody but Brandy..
And it's not a bad album..
Don't know why she acts like it never happened..

Bran just needs to be lead.. PERIOD.

she's got stuff she's dealing with personally hence why she's not talking about it.
the obstacles are in her personal life.
Brandy is a real person guys lol her life doesn't totally revolve around work.

Finally some music questions. She still didn't really say anything.

I just wanna know if the EP is happening or not. I'm fine with waiting I just wanna know what's going on.

Like, I know she wants things to be perfect, but I feel at times Brandy gets in her own way.

this was great, best interview in a while. so we know that she is aware that she promised us something and we are not happy that it isn't here. i also liked that she admitted to being a perfectionist and indecisive with her music, and its clear that she wants this to be epic and she is ok with us being upset as long as the music comes out epic.. she did hint that we have no clue at whats going on in her life , so there could be other things going on. This made me feel alot better...i mean ..it sucks..but i don't want another brandy album that does not sound like a brandy album. id rather wait another year and the music is LEGENDARY brandy . she is clearly insecure about the EP she recorded and she does not want to release it..gotta respect that

Listening to the interview, when he said he was concern I think he wanted to grill her more about those "obstacles".

typical ARTIST IMO

At least she's honest. As an artist we all go through that. But I get what ur saying *shrug

You aren't going to be in love with everything you do. Writers do that all the time. They'll write something and love it ...  Then come back to it and trash it :dead: I'm sure other artists on this forum can relate

He really DUG in and followed up when she'd mention something interesting. Smart interviewer. THIS is how you do it. No shade to anyone that's interviewed her in the past Lolz. The member "Martian" knows more than he's saying but I'm glad he isn't. Personal is personal. Like he said, she's a human being.

Still kinda don't see what the hold up is to put a little 5 - 6 song ep together but w/e. She's had plenty of time. I'm not really buying that "perfectionist" mess.

All in all I hope she's okay. We all get in our feelings and say whatever but all jokes aside I hope she's happy and in a good place. We'll get music when we get it.

And I'm glad music still means a lot to her. I didn't wanna believe what some are thinking on this forum. If she wants it to be as if these will be the last songs she'll ever sing ...  that's passion. There are so many things I'm upset about when it comes to her, but that made me happy to hear

Bran's HEALTH comes first. I hope she'll eventually be in a space like when she was on Broadway.
She was so electric during that time & now she's giving a different tea.

It's strange & I worry, but she'll get to happy. The music will come when it comes.

I'm not buying her "perfectionist" comment - I mean I believe her so i'm not saying she's lying. But i think whatever the "obstacle" she referenced - either personal or professional is deeper than about being a "perfectionist". Quiet as its kept, I when she mentioned "obstacles" she wasn't expecting the interviewer to dig deeper and when he did, she's like "ohhhhh perfectionist blah blah blah" real quick to shut him up.

As someone else said, I hope Brandy is OK. Her energy isn't bad, but it's definitely shifted a bit since Chicago ended.

I've never seen it for the Human shade, not even when it came from Bran's mouth, because that was the album that made me really appreciate her as an artist, and want to listen to her other albums. The music wasn't the problem that era.

THIS!!!!!! I believe she is going thru other obstacles besides being a "perfectionist"... it could be personal, label issues, issues with the producer. And I also noticed brandy deleted her pics on instagram she took with the lady who'son Zoe Ever After with her, Haneefah Wood (she plays Pearl on the show).. so I hope everything is alright with that relationship. I do believe its other things going on.

I just wanted her to acknowledge the fact that she promised it would be out by a certain time and the fact that the fans are upset. I'm content with it at this point.

At the end of the day, she deserves happiness more than anything. Are there things I wish she'd do more or less? Yes. But her happiness is more important than a few new songs. I'll wait on her "divine timing." Good luck, Brandy. Put out what you believe in. We, the fans, will either like it or we won't; we always complain anyway lol. Just be true to Brandy.

As a artist myself I understand. You guys are like "oh just throw it out, we dont care if its reflective of you".

I could never imagine throwing out paintings that look good but Im not 1000% in love with just to satisfy somebody elses wants. ESPECIALLY if Ive been down that road before.

Some people take their art very seriously and Im happy I stan for one of those people! Brandy knows at this point every album she drops could be her last and its important that those studio releases are things shell love for a lifetime.
