Childhood (5-12)
R. Kelly - R. (Ddy had it in his shop, I stole ha and fell in love with the musics, I remember that beautiful paper packaging with the two CD case)
Nelly - Nellyville (Hot in Herre was my anthem and I thought the patch on his cheek was iconics, so I copied it and made my parents buy me this with "Justified" and the atomic kitten album with "It's Ok!")
Brandy - Never Say Never(Mom used to vacuum the floor to this and a Turkish bootleg "The Heat"/"Toni Braxton"/"Secrets" mix album
)
Teenage years (13-19)
Brandy - Full Moon (this album when I discovered it in 2006 changed my outlook on vocals and how I consume music forever, limewire hooked me up)
Dawn Richard - Goldenheart (Didn't think I could stan for someone else again but sis rly snatched by my durag with this)
Jazmine Sullivan - Fearless (same story as Dawn just earlier. And I thought "Need U Bad" was disgusting but I wound up borrowing this from the library and rly had that Bran stan feeling again)
Honorable mention: Diddy's Press Play. That had me STANNING!!! This whole era
the memories
