♫ NEW TRACKS FROM BRANDY

While being on the promo trail for her new album, Human, due out December 9th, Brandy has released a second single, “Long Distance,” the follow-up to the Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins-produced “Right Here (Departed).” In addition to her second single, she will appear on the third single from John Legend’s new album, “Quickly.”

Here are two new tracks from Brandy: “Torn Down,” produced by Midi Mafia (they are also responsible for “Quickly”), which is one of the more uptempo songs which will appear on Human, as well as as the bonus track, “Gonna Find My Love.” Both of these songs are pretty good. I’m a little disappointed that Brandy isn’t including “Gonna Find My Love” on the album, because so far, it seems as though the tempo of Human will be pretty mid-to-slow.

  1. Devin

    Love both of the songs I will def be coping the album Dec 9th all day. She is rapping on Gonna Find My Love ya’ll it’s crazy

  2. Leroy

    I like them both Torn Down sounds like a country song. Brandy is def being universal with her style and can tone her voice for any song meaning rock, country, pop. I love it………

  3. Leroy

    I like them both of them Torn Down sounds like a country song a little bit. I like how Brandy can adjust her voice for any type of song unlike most be it country, alternative (I Tried), pop (Drum Life). She is blazing

  4. ProducedByiQ

  5. JLINZ

  6. DMV Stand Up

    I love Gonna Find My Love. Torn down is nice but it will have to grow on me. Nonetheless, Brandy will be gettin’ my money on Dec. 6th.

  7. Thatsuperstar

    I heard these tracks awhile back and I like. She is being versatile this time around with her sounds. You can really tell she is trying to reach a big crowd of folks. Jlinz we all know Beyonce is the Queen of Music but you dont have to hate on Brandy tho. I think Epic has great promo lined up now but from the start they didnt. Im so ready for the album to drop even tho I disapproved her singles.

  8. LA

    I was flipping through the new issue of Vibe magazine with the rapper Plies is on the cover. I was surprised to see an article with Brandy (about 2 or 3 pages) and the fact that she was not on the cover was shocking to me. Brandy has a new album coming out that has been pushed back and her song barely gets radio play. Brandy should have been on the cover of Vibe. I really don’t think this new album will be a comeback for her at all.

  9. rone1

    YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  10. AllStar

    LOL I swear people are forever hating. Beyonce’s name doesn’t even need to be mentioned here, Britney either. Brandy is coming with some seriously great material. I am really impressed. I’m so excited about her album. Since Bey’s name was brought up, I’ll say this. I listened to her new album in it’s entirety, and Brandy’s material is better. The throw away tracks Brandy isn’t even using for the album are better than Bey’s stuff. Hell, it’s better than most of the stuff ANY of these chicks are putting out.

    Brandy’s vocals on “Gonna Find My Love” are CRAZY. I love this chick. She has so much power and emotion in her voice, and adapts it to any beat so well.

    “Torn Down” is a good track too. Again, Brandy’s voice rides the melody really well. She is one of the most original vocalists of our time.

    I am DEFINITELY picking up this album Dec 9th.

  11. Dre

    RnB will be brought back to life Dec. 9th.

  12. Ummm

    Can’t wait. She’s the greatest

  13. SMH

    Why do yall continue to post Tracks from the album on here?

    Yall must really want her to flop again….

    I heard about 4 songs from the album now…
    I wont listen to these, id rather wait.

  14. Stacey

    Brandy is breathing life into r&b!! The resurrection of GOOD R&B MUSIC will take place on December 9, 2008! Real singers are making a comeback!!

  15. Young Jroe

    This album is about to be bananas (esp if ALL the leaked stuff makes it)! And I’m on it!

  16. TRILLA

    to JLINZ:
    BRANDY IS NOT WORRYING ABOUT BEYONCE.
    THE ONLY THING I CAN HONESTLY SAY BEYONCE GOT ON BRANDY IS HER PROMO GAME. MUSICALLY, BEYONCE IS NOT TOUCHING BRANDY. ACTING, BEYONCE IS NOT TOUCHING BRANDY.

  17. Thank you for coming back Brandy. You have been sorely missed. I’m looking forward to Dec 9, bring it on!!!!!!!!!!!

  18. Greatestloveofall

    Looking forward to the album. You can tell that she’s really grown up. A true professional in this industry. Much love BRocka!!!

    Will most definitely be picking this one up.

  19. History in the making

    @5 “we dont need that 90s shit”
    anyone with ears will tel you that music of the 90s is far better than 99.999% of music being released today!

    And there is no denying that Brandy was one of the voices of the 90s, I grew up listening to her, her music was great. Never say never is one of the best r&b albums of that decade.

    And Beyonde and britney definately have nothing to do with this post so why are they being mentioned. If Brandy’s album doesnt do well it will be because the music industry is saturated by the likes of 1 or 2 female artists who record labels rely on to make them money. Its sad when talented artists cant do well because of the greed of others ie the forenamed singers.

  20. Matt

    Brandy has been featured on the hills, both performances were stellar.
    Epic is behind her 100%. and her album cover is so freaking hot!

    I love brandy new energy…her new confidence. Cant wait till DEC 9TH. Im buying 3 copies! Im sure my friends that hate on her, would want the album. They have her last 3 albums but yet they hate. BRANDY your doing something rite!

    O check on brandy in the new gracing the front of JET MAGAZINE! the interview was pretty good.

  21. K

    Brandy makes me smile, i miss her music! Feeling Gonna find my love. its a breathe track.

  22. kiesha

    yes!! bran u should rap more cause u kilt that verse hands down

  23. Wendell

    I am not at all sure why there are so many comparisons between Beyonce and Brandy, when they are clearly different artist.

    I am sure that Brandy admire’s Beyonce high octaine performance ability, and I can PROMISE you as a singer, I know that Beyonce admires Brandy’s superior vocal technicality.

    For all Beyonce’s whailing over tracks (which sometimes works, and sometimes not so much) she doesn’t have the harmonizing or rifting technique Brandy posseses. Additionally, Beyonce has a signature voice, but not a completely authentic sound, whereas there has never been someone that sounds like Brandy.

    So I am sure these artist respect one anothers gifts, its time for the fans to catch up.

    What’s funny is that you never hear people pitting Ne-Yo against R.Kelly, unless they ignite some type of beef themselves. You never hear people saying that Usher is afraid to drop because Chris Brown is coming out soon.

    Sad that its mostly women pitting these women against each other, as it was when I was in high school watching the chicks go crazy over who was more talented – Monica, or Brandy? Whow as prettier? Monica or Brandy.

    So now Monica has fallen off enough, that Beyonce has taken her place as the small minded drama seeking fans who love a good cat fat.

  24. Intrigue216

    I don’t even have to listen to the tracks to know I’m getting this album. People on here mentioning Beyonce, why? I’d rather buy Brandy’s c.d. over Beyonce’s. Brandy doesn’t get the credit she deserves, hope she does well this time.

  25. Wendell

    Oh and BTW!

    Both of these tracks are great, Brandy always delivers with her albums. I am not shocked. She is one of the few artist, that we can honestly say, has never had a bad album.

  26. Sweetness

    Go brandy! Loving what i’ve been hearing so far. Surely will get the album.

  27. slutlyonce'

    yall beyonce stan are sick wtf does beyonce has to with this post…..nothing
    go somewhere else in worry about why she keep releasing wack ass ablum

  28. mathis

    brandy rapps i’m shocked

  29. fum

    Y’all this album is going to be pushed back again, thats just not a smart move from her to release in december, Ciara, Keri Hilson understood that and pushed back theirs, Im sure Keyshia is going to do the same since her single is notdoing really well, the same for Brandy, Beyoncé and Britney dont move their albums’ dates if youre smart, you push back yours, thats strategy cuz all the attention is going to be on them. Christina Milian do u know she is supposed to have a first single? Christina Aguilera is not doing well too, even Rihanna is going to suffer.
    Brandy needs to reinvent herself, we are in 2008 too. Good r and b is ok, but it can be tiring.

  30. Wendell

    RE: No. 29

    LOL Good R&B is OK, but it can be tiring? LOL! LMAO is all I have to say…that is possibly the most backwards, unappreciative and idiotic thing I’ve read on the board. In fact, its even more seneless than the Beyonce comparisons, simply because we are talking about a valuable, complicated genre of music that has influenced every other genre of music that there is.

  31. FlyOne

    LOVE Brandy! Good grown folks music/videos!

  32. YaChi

    I still rock that Never Say Never album, straight classic.

    I’ve loved everything Brandy has put out thus far. Hope she does really well.

    I personally don’t see anything wrong with competition, i.e. #29 Fum. When there is competition, we the consumers benefit. Instead, only one big name artist will release and everyone else has to fall back?!?! Why, let them earn that #1 spot, let them earn bragging rights. Hell, it’s our money. If they want it, make them compete for it.

    Case in point the Kanye vs Fifty dispute. Regardless of which artist you were rooting for, we the consumers were given a choice.

    Why are people talking about Beyonce?!?!? There is a post about her. Go there and piss off. This is Brandy’s site.

  33. what you know about that

    These songs are AMAZING! Brandy is the ultimate musician. She’s so versatile…there isn’t a genre she hasn’t tried. She’s a freakin musical BEAST! And please don’t compare her to anyone else because she’s in her own lane. There’s nothing wrong with loving different artists people! That takes nothing away from whoever your favorite singer is. Please get your heads out of Beyonce’s ass!

  34. what you know about that

    @ Brian,

    Gonna Find My Love will be included on the Deluxe edition of Human.

  35. truthfully

    I heard like 6 tracks from her, and Brandy always brings that heat…ALL HER ALBUMS ARE BANGERS! People sleep on her a lot, but the ppl who follow her knows what she brings to the table…

  36. Jayhollered

    cant wait till the album drop!!! i love her!!!

  37. L

    I am sorry both songs suck! i want to like the new brandy but i think that is just the problem! it’s not new! this shit sounds like everything i heard in the 90′s she needs to go back to work! Because i feel a sleep again…

  38. kieth

    @L………dude u sound very dumb,stay in school

  39. DOB

    I decided not to listen to the songs until the album comes out, but I’m glad people are liking them.

    I wish more people would give Brandy the credit she deserves. She puts out good music consistently but cant seem to get the attention she needs to sell. I don’t understand it.

  40. fUcK wiThME i STay SO flY

    brandy iS rAPPing Thats BANANAS cant WAit 4 the ALbUM deC 9TH BRaNDY GOnNA BRAKE RECORDS WItHThiS aLBUm

  41. FoxyAfroChic

    I don’t actually think that is Brandy rapping. Do you know Brian? I could be wrong but doesn’t sound like her at all.

    Besides that, Torn is ok. I’m loving Gonna Find My Love.

    I really wish people would recognize that there is enough room in the music industry for both Brandy and Beyonce to succeed and that we do not have to belittle the talent of both and say that one is better than the other. One may sell more than the other but can we please let them both do their own THING. I love them both and that’s my two cents…

  42. Sabrina

    I LOVE both of the songs. Finally “B”! She took long enough because I HATE that single she has out. With these two wonderful songs, why did she chose that awful single.

  43. Knuck

    yeah, #42, that’s all her rapping.. If you ever heard her speak you can tell.. maybe watch her 106 & Park interview on youtube or her Kyte videos..

    anyway, this ish is HOTT

  44. Focused1

    Fire!!!! Now this is what quality R&B sounds like. Songs with a message and good production to bring the words to life. These songs are the best I’ve heard from the album so far.

    It’s a shame that some people seem to only be concerened about analyzing and comparing numbers and release dates. That’s the record label’s priority and concern not yours. The only thing you should be concerned about is whether you will support the artist or not on whatever date their album is released. If some people truly cared about the music, they wouldn’t bother bringing other names onto the post to discredit other artists. Joe Budden did a song about Who Killed Hip Hop and he was the telling the truth about how consumers today are so worried about the sales and compeition rather than the artists. The same applies to R&B. Someone needs to make a song about who killed R&B. Maybe then people will wake up and realize how pointless and shallow they sound.

  45. Taylor

    Most of the songs that are out is leaked tracks that wont even be on the album which I wish she would have kept on the album! I listened and downloaded gonna find me love and torn down because they were just itunes bonus tracks. But im going to wait and buy her album on the 9th. Im so excited. i love this girl so much lol. She been through alot though and im glad to see her back making new music. Because I was going to scream if i heard one more Afrodisiac or full moon left over tracks lmao. Also at @23 thank you. I agree with you 100 percent!

  46. JanetLover

    Yea I dont understand why we are all discussing Beyonce too…

    But since you mentioned it, I heard all of Beyonce’s new album and it’s really a bunch of leftovers from the B’Day album. It’s not too original at all, well at least the uptempo stuff is not original.

    I love the two tracks! Brandy delivers quality productions as well as quality vocals, which is what we are missing in todays R&B. I think todays music is more about quantity than quality anyway.

    BRANDY YOU ROCK!!!!

    CANT WAIT TO SEE YA ON TOUR!!!

  47. JAY_TUCK

    i feel sorry for BEYONCE and BRADY lol BRITNEY SPEARS IS SOO BOUT TO TAKE OVER THE CHARTS FOR A WHILE LOL I MEAN GEESH WOMANIZER WENT TO NUMBER SUPER FAST AND BEYONCE AND BRANDY HAVNET HAD A NUMBER ONE OFF DEY UP AND COMING ALBUMBS YET!!… might i add Womanizer is still in teh top 10 and has been for while!!! hehe!!! i could carless bout any of these singers music but lets be REAL britney spears is the equal to Micheal Jackosn !!! in todays WORLD!!!

  51. Lady Gaga

    Once Again B-Rocka Delivers 100%!

  52. Melodic08

    ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS THIS:::

    Who ever brought up Beyonce’s name needs to sit down somewhere. This is about Brandy. And who ever said something about let them compete to own “The Top Spot”. SHUT TFU!!! What is that going to prove that people are shallow and don’t appreciate real GREAT music? I swear .. people need to stop with all the hating. As long as the singer singing the song is singing genuinely and it’s not some fake generated studio voice, and their music is inspiring and beautiful .. I’ll listen to it. People that only listen to one artist and one type of genre should comment because they sound really uneducated. Gonna Find My Love is a BEAUTIFUL TRACK!!!!! You did it again Brandy. God bless you and ya Family .. and just keep making Great music that is Timeless and Classic. Beyonce you need to keep doing ya thing too love. F*** all the haters that want to put down another artist. I LOVE MUSIC!!!!!!

  53. Human

    Poeple need to stop comparing beyonce to brandy. She may have sold many records but there is no artistry there. Cant yall see all her music is booty-shaking and rushed production. All she is is an Entertainer. brandy is and Artist. brandy’s vocals would blow beyone out of the water. brandy is the younger Whitney. A vioce who grew up in the church. unlike beyonce whos parnets quit their jobs to promote a group so their daughter could be famous. that was the whole purpose of Destiny’s Child.

  54. SLIM

    CAN’T WAIT FOR THIS ALBUM! Brandy is the Queen of R&B & Pop her music is timeless. I

  55. PMel

    SING IT BRAN…I CAN’T WAIT..

  56. JB

    Is that Brandy rappin?! Lol damn she’s pretty good! The album is a banger!

  57. TheOne

    Love Brandy! Both Songs R HOT…Gonna buy the album!!!

  58. nathan

    brandy is rapping on this…….
    hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
    i actually like it.

  59. JuS'SKe FResH

    Both the songs are FIRE! I can’t wait for the album I will be buy several copies!

    As far as comparing Brandy to Beyonce they are too different artists with different singing style. They are apples and oranges. I think Brandy is a legend and a true vocalist. Who has consistently put out quality albums and doesn’t need to be all up on the spotlight to sell records. I’m not worried about her record sells going up against Beyonce’s cause Brandy has a fan base that will go out and support just like Beyonce. But I do have a promblem with urban stations playing a pop song like If I Were A Boy but they won’t play Right Here Departed. I don’t know anywayz love BROCKA she will have all my money on Dec. 9th!!!!!
