WHO SANG IT BETTER: BEYONCE VS. BRANDY

Two female singers, both with huge fan bases seemed to have recorded the same song, which has caused a slightly heated debate online on whether or not one is better than the other.

Beyonce’s version of the track, “Slow Love,” produced by Stargate, leaked a couple of weeks ago, and shortly after, a version with Brandy’s vocals surfaced.

In my opinion, the song isn’t all that great enough for this to even be an issue. The song seems a little hollow, and unfinished, hence why both ladies left it off of their albums, I Am… Sasha Fierce and Human, which are both out in stores.

    Um, I didn’t say they were insecure because they don’t like bey’s music. speak for yourself don’t say “nobody is jealous of Bey” because that is not true. I don’t like some songs Bey release now in days either. I have to admit brandy did sound bette on this song, because this song was too simple for Bey, so I was anticipating all that she could do.

    @Latin Vocal

    All that classical training is irrelevent to this. You called Bey singing screaming, but you said Brandy voice is more gospel. Have you ever been to a black church. We sing from the soul. It could get loud. We like that. You need to watch more Bey footage. better yet More gospel footage. I love Brandy’s older albums. The last one was all this soft pop that I was not feeling. Bey is a better vocalist IMO

    WHY ARE PEOPLE ON HERE TALKING ABOUT BEYONCE’S GREAT AT PERFORMING LIVE? WTF DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH THIS POST?? LMAO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
    WHOOOO SANNNGGGG ITTTT BETTTEEERRRRRR??????
    THAT’S THE QUESTION.
    THE ANSWER…BRANDY! I LOVE HER VOICE. ALWAYS HAVE. ALWAYS WILL.

  5. 2 BAD

    Beyaki looks about 40 in this pic. She doesn’t need to do the natural look. She is definitely NOT a natural beauty. She looks good only in heavy tranny makeup! Ewww she will age terribly! Good thing she has already started doing her little nips and tucks.
    Someone said they buy her performance DVD’s and not her CD’s. You are correct! Beyaki is good to watch on stage but listening to all that dramatic screeching and yelling gets annoying after a while (sorry stans but the whole world doesn’t love Beyaki).
    I would rather listen to Brandy’s CD over that I AM bullsh*t any day!!!

  6. danny

    Its a Beyonce && Ciara world… now guess who I voted for.

  7. jj

    Another song beyonce would have claimed she wrote

  8. jj

    They both sang it good, beyonce’s one was studio finished, brandys voice was better to listen to

  9. a

    you all can hear de duet mix on youtube.

    just write: Brandy Beyonce Slow love.

    They sound really good together. Why to compare?

  10. oh Lawd

    @ BRANDY OWNS SLOW LOVE!
    calm the f*ck down. it’s not that serious.
    dammmmmmmmmnnnnnnnn. people go hard for no reason
    you think brandy sang it better, yea, we get it already
    quit posting several times. it’s annoying
    unfortunately, i do agree with you though, i LOVE beyonce but i just think brandy sounded better. btw, beyonce sings with A LOT of emotion, no need for the lies

  11. Level10

    neither one of them sung their best in this song….i would love to hear a real duet though, with both ladies singing their hearts out. Now that would be crazy!

    Bey has a very strong voice…But i think brandy could hang with bey, without a doubt.

    oh and beyonce looks older then brandy in that pic LOL

  12. UM... I GUESS

    loooooove brandy and her voice is def better for this song!!!

  13. FallBackHaters

    I think the song is crap, nearly had me sleeping but to me Beyonce had the upper edge because her voice made me more awake.

  14. BRANDY OWNS SLOW LOVE

    @oh Lawd
    F@G FUKK U AND GO SUCK A DIRTY D!CK.
    I DO AS I PLEASE.
    WHO R U 2 TELL ME 2 CALM DOWN
    GET OFF MY CLIT AND KEEP PUMPING IT!
    BRANDY SINGS BETTER THAN BEYONCE WITHOUT EVEN SCREAMING AND THIS PROOF.

  15. infiniti

    i didnt realize how unpolished beyonce voice was til i heard this… brandy wins this

  16. ANEKA

    half and half. beyonce’s 1st verse was better and her intro ad libs as the song began. but brandy’s chorus is better. the 2nd verse was both equal as was the bridge and the final ending brandy’s ad libs were nice, beyonce provided none. and the way brandy ended it i liked too. i then set the songs to play together at the same time and they sound nice together. i say a duet is in order. the hook is hot though to the writer.

  17. Kanye's Hennesy

    B-ROCKA!! Hands down! I am so mad that my girl gets no love! All of her albums r the shit!

  18. Masayah

    Brandy’s way better!!

    Beyonce’s voice gets a bit annoying because of the way she sings it. I guess it’s just that this song is not suited for her voice.

  19. ki-ki

    I like brandy versions also

  20. justpink

    big Bey and Brandy fan….but Brandy killed it!!!!!

  21. T. Masterpiece

    Brandy’s voice is something extraordinary. She just takes me there and i can listen to her all day long. Her tone, runs,, rifts, & harmonies!!!!!!! No other artist can be compared. Go look at youtube clips of this girl and listen to her albums. proof right there that no one is messin with this chick. if you watch the video they did for the Election 04 The artist got together and made a remake of “Wake Up Everybody” it was produced by Babyface and he knew exactly where to put her in the song and she sits everyone else down. not to mention her part was the longest. I agree with everyone who says shes a singer’s singer with so much versatility. If you listen to her first album “Brandy” you can hear the Whitney influence in the tone and runs.It’s still thee she just doesn’t uses it as much because of the Matureness in her voice. Music is no longer like this because we have people who cant sing in the forefront. Yes Beyonce can sing, shes just not as AMAZING as people hype her up to be. We need real singers like Kelly Price, Faith Evans, Brandy, Monica, Jazmine Sullivan, Lauryn Hill, Fantasia.

  22. sade

    I have had so many arguements reguarding this issue…..Beyonce sings better than Ms. Brandy Norwood????? Must i even answer that? People need to wake up and see that Brandy is a BEAST!!!!!!!!! Proven fact do your research. Anyone who is musically inclined knows what i mean. She is RESPECTED in the industry for her vocals. A true God Given Talent. No shade to Bey she can also sing…..but better than Brandy… i DONT THINK SO.

  23. Nupey1999

    Brandy…hands down. Bey is a better entertainer though!

  24. TEZZZZZ

    BRANDYS VOICE IS WAY BETTER FOR THAT SONG SHE KILLED IT I LOVE THEM BOTH ALMOST EQUALLY BUT BRANDY IS A WHO;LE DIFFERENT SOUND AND IT SOUND SINCERE

  25. dafinestgrl

    I THINK BOTH ARE GREAT SINGERS I WAS A BRANDY FAN BEFORE I WAS A BEYONCE FAN B/C BRANDY WAS OUT FIRST BUT THEY BOTH CAN SING TO HOWEVER I DONT THINK THIS SONG IS FOR NEITHER OF THEM I CAN SEE KERI HILSON SINGIN SOMETHING LIKE THIS……….ALL 3 OF THEM HAVE GOOD VOICES BUT DIFFERENT STYLES THOUGH……..I’M NOT FEELIN THE SONG IN GENERALTHOUGH.

  26. SOCOMPLEXXX

    Brandy is the most Whitney Influenced singer of our time.

  27. HALF AMAZIN

    Children, stop your simple bickering. It’s not about who’s more famous or whom you like better.

    Some songs are meant for a certain type of voice. To me, this song is not for Beyonce. Doesn’t mean she can’t sing simply means she shouldn’t sing this song. Pretty simple.

    The song isn’t amazing so I can see why they both declined, but Brandy’s voice was better suited for it.

  28. KevLee

    BRANDY!!!! BRANDY!!! BRANDY has a beautiful alto voice. Beyonce has that same country girl style on everything and it gets a little redundent. I’ll say Brandy. I grew up to Brandy’s music before Beyonce came out. Brandy needs to make a big comeback.

  29. Sarkazm

    I said both sang it well…but I am lean more towards Beyonce in general…but Brandy puts it down in the studio….so I resubmit my vote for Brandy…lol….but she still ain’t Bee…

  30. Sarkazm

    Let me reiterate…Brandy is the biz…in the studio.

  31. AND I DON'T GIVE A FIDDUCK ABIDOUT THIS BIDDITCH

    Brandy KILLED it. It’s her tone, it suited the song well.

  35. ThisSongIsGarbage

    #24 STFU! Brandy nor any of those girls started shit. There were females in it before them. There have been many IT girls and Monica is and was better than Brandy’s ass. Anyway, Brandy wasn’t and still isn’t that chick that could dance and sing like Beyonce. Beyonce took this shit to a whole other level that Brandy would not have been able to keep up with back in the day. Now back to the matter at hand, Beyonce kills Brandy vocally, but this song is garbage. Brandy’s weak ass vocals fits this type of song. Beyonce has to hold back on BS songs like this. She needs to to sing more soulful songs like she did on the Cadillac Records sound track.

  36. Tacky Beyonce

    It is only a matter of time until everyone knows about the evil that is Beyonce.

    Beyonce is not a good person. This has been revealed time and time again.

    Be careful Beyonce, life has a way of catching up to you.

    Beyonce needs to calm down she is nothing special. Black people have always danced and sang for white people.

    If you are black and make it. Usually for a lady you need to be light skinned with European Features. Well Beyonce is that. U are the norm beyonce. I dont know who the hell is fooling yah.

    Oh it must be your uneducated self, and your criminal business partner jay-z.

    U both make the same boring music. Its like the same cd over and over again.

  37. ilyy.

    BRANDY, man i forgot how amazing her voice was !
    ” lets make slooow love.” this song fits her voice perfectly ;D

  38. Miss Jaye

    That was Brandy’s song from the moment she said the first word…as usual, B was too harsh.

  39. Tacea

    I cant believe people are saying Brandy’s version is better! i’m tired of Beyonce too but i give credit when it’s due and Beyonce’s version is WAY BETTER. Brandy sounds like a 11 year old boy going through puberty!
