I think its time for Brandy to enter a "Singles" era ... A full album roll out is a huge undertaking. A single is a different story. I think it's time Brandy focus on one song at a time for a while. I'd love to see her consistently dropping singles and videos as a solo and featured artist.
ALSO .... I think the real Brandy magic has happened when she's joined forces with new / undiscovered producers and song writers. Darkchild provided that for a minute. Mike City provided that. James Fauntleroy provided that.
I think Brandy has so much more to offer music and by being a leader into new sounds is her best path forward. Don't try to compete or copy or reproduce any other sounds or vibes.
I keep hearing Brandy singing over a "stomp and holler" "americana" ... Beggin & Pleading meets KALEO "Way Down We Go"
I can imagine Brandy filling this Pop Rock Political Uprising Freedom sounds vibe that leads the way to change.
