- 4 singles is a must. If urban acts want better sales, they need a full era during one year at least and with 4 singles, with videos and performances
- A long tour is a must too, not just 10 cities, that wont help any album
- Tv performances are really needed, and during all the era, I know this is really hard, but managements need to find the way

the rest? create a great album, unique, with a concept and great balance of real lytics and a few hot/radio songs

And great visuals obviously. The audience is not here for simple videos anymore. Get more ambitious, and lets see how that works

Key collabs and actual performances with them...

Put it down could've been a top 30 hit if bran and Chris did a billboard music awards performance... that's all I got

I'm honestly not worried about how many singles, promo, etc anymore.

At this point I just want the music & maybe a few dope visuals and I'll be happy.

I hope she chooses to be more artistic over commercial this time around.

U always say u "just" want then have a whole scroll laid out for what she should do or coulda done

The next time you have a song like "Do You Know...?" RELEASE it.


Don't even get me started on the failure that was not releasing this song....
I still fume... Such an excellent second single. Urban top 5 at least

Wish your love away as the third single

Hmmm if I was A&R....

I'de suggest Brandy do a one city show, make a event out of it. Make it an NYC type exclusive event for fans (to ensure a hype crowd). I'de focus on mostly her features and Collabs so she can have great roster of guess performers. She should perform 3 new songs.

Then call up VH1 and tell them to televise the event. Same night premiere first video & release song to ITunes. Release totally different song to radio next day.

Do a radio tour promoting new song, while letting the net eat up the other one.

Release only half the album on ITunes (5 songs) and release the others (5-7) on physical release w/ a DVD w/ video and a detailed making of the video & song (to force people to get the physical). Make it a collections item of sorts.

If she really wanted to get fancy have Vh1 sell live album only on their website and her official one.

f These unrealistic dreams, demands and desires belong in your diaries. You're not A&R, so stop trying to play the role--especially, when you don't understand the business. You sound foolish.

Four singles? Four fucking singles? What planet do y'all live on?  :uhh:

The Apple/iTunes exclusive release sounds cool. Since she's indie she'll own a larger percentage of its sales.

did you forget that this is a board where people share whatever they want, think and the like ?  :dead: :dead: :dead: :dead: :dead: :dead: :dead: :dead: :dead: :dead: :dead: :dead:

If we want to talk about next era, we TALK about next era. If you are that insecure that cant deal with other people thoughts, then this isnt the place for you
