Brandy writes a certain way

Verse and bridge

Or v
Multiple verses treated like one big chorus

Freedom rings is the closest she cp mes to a normal structure lol

At first I couldn't get the structure of Lucid Dreams or No Manana but they hit now

Don't get me wrong, I love a verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge with Ghan adlibbing like hell all over the final chorus mess but at least these new songs aren't boring. There IS structure there, it's just weird. But it ain't mumbling over a 2 minute track to a fade out like these other girls.

I get what you mean 

I hate Saving all my love for this reason. It feels all over the place. It's rather annoying to hear for me. It works on other songs though. Borderline, lucid and Unconditional are a couple of other weird ones too. But I use those.

Do y'all listen to jazz? If you listen to jazz, you can hear a LOT of that approach to b7. It actually makes a lot of sense from that lens. There are no rules. That's what makes it so beautiful to me.

I'm pretty sure she mentioned jazz as an inspiration for the album in an interview a couple of years back as well.

Who said that jazz doesn't have rules?  Jazz has plenty of rules.

That's why it took forever for me to get into SAML. I love it now though and now that I'm familiar with it, it doesn't sound so disjointed.

There are "common" structures just like any other music, but one of the most defining characteristics about the genre itself is improvisation :dead:

Lucid 
Unconditional 
save 
high heel 

Are confusing vocally she's on point but what's the point if it just sounds like they just threw words together to sound deep 

Rather Be & No tomorrow are the best song in terms of production
