Personally, I’ve never been a huge fan of the R&B genre, and Destiny’s Child was as ‘gangsta’ as I went. But then one day, I went to my local library and decided – what the hell – and borrowed out a copy of Brandy – Afrodisiac – I now own a copy of this album and another Brandy album since that moment. In my opinion, Brandy should be crowned queen of R&B – this young, talented lady displays maturity beyond her years through her music – an album that shows just how much Brandy has grown – this is Brandy’s best release to date.

Ride the waves of the Afrodisiac album – you won’t regret it. It is one of those albums that has the amazing knack of being able to have the right ingredients for an R&B record – funky beats, amazing dance tracks, solid ballads, and terrific vocals. How I Feel, Necessary and Should I Go immediately stand out from the album – each song so different and so d*mn good! Brandy’s voice has a beautiful, husky feel to it – a refreshing change to R&B’s belters Beyonce and Whitney Houston. This is literally the best R&B album I know of. In the song Finally, Timbaland, producer of this album says “Brandy has risen to the occasion” – amen to that! Brandy performs like Janet Jackson at her best – this is how real R&B is made.
