Yeah I know. It really was tbh. That sound was SO hot. I don't think Brandy seemed like the type to get diamond albums. They always saw her as a child star. She was more global too. I think NSN sold like 18M WW or something. Legendary.

Yeah People weren't here for her taking away the good girl image. The "grown" people didn't see her as an adult and the "children" just wanted the girly rasp/Moesha back.

AND OMG! Girl, everything about that song from top to bottom is perfection. The vocals are GODLY.

I ain't even gonna... LIEEE-II-EEE



Yeah, She shaded him so hard after Human lol, and rightfully so. He kinda gave her 2nd class treatment after she gave him his name and got him so much business. DC3 wanted a "TBIM" so bad and they got it with Say My Name.

I'm 10000% certain I Thought was supposed to be the 3rd single, but they went with a ballad at the time because of her pregnancy, even though she couldn't promote it.

Angel in Disguise was actually the promo single. They sent it to radios in order to see how the sound would do and how people would like that kinda Brandy and it was received with open arms. It actually went top 10 on R&B Airplay with ZERO promo or effort. Seriously such a legend.

The video was on point. It looked so fresh back in 2002. This could be riiiiiiiiiight.
Take me to church Brandy

I remember even brandy wanted He is because she felt it was better than releasing a pop friendly song like I thought. I was like girl...that's what 4th singles are for.

Angel in Disguise deserved to be a real single.

It needed a classic 90s video. They could have done without remixing that last single with shauntae??? or something.

Almost doesn't count - what kind of midtempo classic.
The boy is mine - an R&B classic
Have you ever - a pop balladeer classic
Top of the world - a novelty fun little dance track classic.

I like you don't know me like you used to know baby (forget the actual title) but not before Angel in disguise.

A legit 5 classic singles from one era and Angel in disguise closed the era.

Welp, no more use in crying over spilled milk

Brandy's Cinderella is the best version of that story. It's definitive. She was even better than Crackney. One of the few movies I watch every year.

[YoYo]

Saw suicide squad yesterday. Almost cried at how bad it was.

[slw84]

There's plenty of people who don't like me (ATRL) there's 10x more that love me (real world friends and family) and I love myself

Whew this uplifting DC3 track wasn't a single.

But, why?

I don't fancy you too much
You think you're cute
You think you're fine
you're always tryin' to steal my shine
Get off of me
Don't mess with me
You know who you aaaaaaarrreee


BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISH

you betta preach

TELLLLLLLLLLLL HERRRRRRRR
Let ha know you in here

YAS!! I wish she danced more but the bitch was PREGNANT during the video Such a mess. She hid it very well cause I couldn't tell.

Right? "He Is" is amazing though. Glad they tricked her into doing a gospel anthem

LMAO!!! Yeah! The U Don't Know me (Like U Used To) Darkchild Remix was a mess. #JusticeForAngelInDisguise

And WOO! YAS! TOTW was great. The transition from Sittin Up In my Room to Sittin on top of the world

But girl. You remember the transition from Learn The Hard Way to Almost Doesn't Count? I can't find that ANYWHERE online but I can't listen to the songs without listening to the other anymore because the transition is THAT good.

My 5 year old cousin is obsessed with that movie

She wanted to be Brandy as Cinderella for Halloween



And then this classic

Because she's black.

Same with have you ever? by brandy
Whitney in the 80s (minus you give good love) I tried it


When black r&b artists put out pop ballads they were considered selling out

Meanwhile multiracial butterfly Mariah was able to put out songs like hero, without you and other pop driven tunes and it was considered universal.

While black artists thrived in the 90s...there was so much hypocrisy and SO MUCH shaming for "selling out"

You too.
See that's what money, love and happiness feels like. It's a blessing.
I pray for many ATRLers because it's not always a guarantee.

I'm bopping to my 90s playlist right now in my home. dog just perched on his bed.
AC is on because it works.
It's a beautiful thing.
August already a week over.

Yeah. I'm a firm believer in that Mariah didn't make R&B music until 1995 for Daydream. Literally everything before it was Pop. She had some gospel influence on Emotions but it wasn't R&B ya know?

And Whitney's music, to me, is just so bleh for the most part. It's so interesting to see the comments of these old videos now. There's never hate for it and people always say "I miss these times." Then comment on current videos and say "Ugh this song is so bad. What happened to Whitney Houston & Mariah Carey"

This seems to be the general consensus. Which sucks because I was really looking forward to it.

And you already know how I feel about BVS. Still seeing it Tuesday, though. At least Margot was great, so I've read.
