While working on her presently untitled sixth studio album, fan favorite Brandy decided to give her fans a little treat.
Check below to see a video of Brandy in her bathroom with no make-up on, singing a rendition “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” from The Wizard of Oz, which is celebrating it’s 70th anniversary with a special DVD release just last Tuesday.
Although she is recording her sixth studio album, as well as a rumored album with brother Ray J., which is tentatively titled R&B, Brandy has split with Epic Records and Jay-Z’s Roc Nation management. Currently, she doesn’t have a major label situation, but it has been said that Brandy will announce something before 2009′s close.
50 CENT REVEALS 4th STUDIO ALBUM COVER
After a lot of set backs with singles, 50 Cent gives us a taste of what his album cover will look like for his fourth studio set, Before I Self Destruct, which is now slated to hit stores November 17th.
TIMBALAND ALBUM INFO
After the success and many singles from his last album, Shock Value, Timbaland has announced a release date on the follow-up.
The new album, Shock Value 2 is set for release on November 24th, with collaborations from newcomer Lady Gaga, friend and collaborator, Justin Timberlake as well as Shakira, Kings of Leon, Miley Cyrus, Daughtry, The Fray, and Paramore.
It was rumored that many more appearances were going to be on the album, including Brandy, Beyonce, Jay-Z, with whom Timbaland recorded a lot of material for The Blueprint 3 and Leona Lewis, but no word on whether or not those collaborations will make the album.
The first single from the album, which is said to debut sometime this month, will feature the Timbaland’s new French artist SoShy.
Love Timbaland work………………….
50 cent I am not going to judge the music by the album cover, but I do like the cover………………….
Brandy I hope to hear some new material from you soon. I still like your work
brandy is so talented…looking forward to more from her…with much success as well.
I love brandy, she is so underated. She needs the right songs, that can take her back to the top. Well, who I am fooling ( if your not light skinned, shakin your a**, or the best dresser) if HUMAN did not sell this will not happen. Anyway go B-rocka!!!!!!!
didnt even look brandys video no time for the irrelevant even though she makes brilliant rnb
timbaland last album was AMAZING, even though for me its a Timbaland and friends album, a collaboration album, its still hot!
50 cent is ignorant and wack all the sh!t he does now to the other rappers, he is lame even his commercial single dont have any hype, irrelevant now, come harder beeyootch! The album cover is devilish and wack like himself, sorry he became too lame to me, he still is talented but ughh
I like 50′s album cover.
Let’s just hope that 50′s music lives up to the album cover. The stuff he has been putting out lately has been kind of lukewarm. Maybe he needs to go back and listen to Get Rich or Die Tryin’ for a little inspiration.
wowwwwwwwwww brandy its been a minute ive heard a really good voice its like we are being starved of talent from the record industry. Do a great album please i will Buy spend yes spend i havent bought music in past 5 yrs cause it hasnt been worth it lately hiphop or rnb, no i dont like pop. So please sing r&b…………….that good ish…
people are talkin ish like if u aint light u wont sell bla bla they are the same people up with the farcade YOU as a CONSUMER have the power BUY IT. BUy what you like not what is forced down yr throats research whose out whose new etc..tv wont tell you. If humam didint sell that much then is because of YOU consumer who likes n follows hype.
brandy = over sung
Brandy better sing!!!! It was just a lil over done, however- probably just to prove she has vocals out this world! People tend to not give her credit on her voice!!! If that girl every did gospel, WOW- thats all im going to say! Crazy skills! Can not wait on her next project and future to come..
i bet rihanna neither ciara, britney, miley cyrus, keri, can sing accapella that quickly right? smh the world is unfair, how brandy doesnt have a record deal? well its her own fault anyway, she waited too damn long to come back and too much things goin on around her career but good luck!
This just doesn’t feel right..considering Ashanti is currently singing this song. I love Brandy a lot, and I’ve always bought her CD’s but, it’s as if she’s trying to make a comparison without saying it.
Brandy absolutely KILLED. Words can’t describe the talent she has. She’s praised for her harmonies and backgrounds, but a true vocalist/musician knows that brandy has always had strong leads… I just can’t express.
And she IS signed, she just hasn’t announced it yet. She will be on Timb’s Shock Value 2.. singing and rapping.. She’s a beast! But everything will come to the light in due time. Peace out ppl
WOW BRANDY’S VOICE IS SOOOOOOO AMAZING,I LOVE HER SHE’S A TRUE TALENT.
I LOVE brandy doing this video.. B:
cos shes just playing around in her b-rm
coz she dont biSnis bout her looks so much as she does her raw and rare gift
cos it makes a statement about those in the charts, and how bran is in her own lane
cos it proves that her artistry is unmatched
NEVER STOP BRAN, LUV YA
On another note, it’s crazy how the people on this site (for US) won’t even acknowledge or support this humble talented lady and she’s just giving her fans a treat on her own time. CRABS IN A BARREL. This video and post is not about a competition. I will never understand where black folks got this mentality that we always have to compete and everybody can’t shine in their own way. Where are the youtube videos of other artists killing a tune for the fans? Do they even care about their fans? Can they even do an a capella with perfect note placement?
I feel you Pat!! Why now is Brandy interested in singing that song? The shade is – she may sound better than Ashanti but Ashanti “ain’t” in nobody’s bathroom singing Somewhere Over The Rainbow. Brandy, please!!!
yep crabs in a barrel.. never ceases to amaze me.. SMH
im so over 50 hes a cunt anyway
timbaland he aight dont like some of his tracks
brandy doin the foul, why a week after ashanti sung this she trryin to get some shine, shes a fake always been1. sorry bran but it was jusst average hun.
bran can sing somewhat but this didnt move me at all, and she sayin she
got over 100k views on youtube, NOT thats just the same 25,000 fans watching
it over&over and commenting again&again. smh bran resorted to singin in the bathroom. fantasi and tamia and a mix of jhud/yolanda adams killin the game
vocally, oh and beyonce and monica already sung bran under a rug….so that no one touching bran in vocals IS A LIE CREATED BY HER PEEPS AND FANS..to get her some hype..but i have to givve it up to the fans its givin bran her 15 minutes rite now!
Brandy has a beautiful voice. Half these chicks are not even on her level, sad to say bu she needs to stop singing so good. Seems like the chicks who can’t sing are getting all fame..ie Rihanna, Keri Hilson, Ashanti, Ciara…just to name a few. I guess Keri does alright but there’s nothing to her.
@MissDiva, Brandy was out and at the top of the charts waaaay before we even knew who the hell Beyonce was, now I love Monica but she has never reached the amount of success that “Bran” has.
Brand has never just been average.
U talk som real shit. MISSDIVA UR Crazy.U must be U SEEIN BLU BIRDS FLY? lol
Brandys got people around her.
What shes doin is givin her fans something.. she could sing in front of her friends if she wanted to, and wats rong wid a bit of fun and attention. Shes getting praises from
fans and celebs-
AND yeah.. Brandys no one can touch her vocals- shes a vocal beast. I could write a book about her vocals alone.
Brandy is anad will always be a force to be reckoned with. Just like Monica, Debroah Cox and Tamia. But, they don’t get an ounce of credit when they can sing these other chicks striaght outta the game.
I’m not getting it…If I sing “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” I’m throwin’ shade at Ashanti? That is a silly thing to say. This is one of the most karaoke sung songs there is! It’s a song to make you feel happy. Haterz just gon hate. Brandy sung the HECK outta that song and you can’t deny it!!!! Why she gotta be oversinging the song??? Have you ever heard of a RENDITION?!?!
People kill me sometimes….LOL
50 will have hot garbage

Brandy ate that song for lunch. She is one of the greatest singers of my generation.
This video was soely Brandy playing w/ her vocals for her fans. She wasn’t trying to come for anyone. Just like the beyonce duet, she didn’t intentionally try to SLAY her it just happend.
Brandy is very relevant as you can see she was on Shock Wave, Ginuwine, John lengend, Diddy, Kanye, Babyface album’s and sooooooooo on. Human just didn’t do well. That doesn’t make her irrelevant. People are still talking about Ms. Norwood all the time in my area. So keep doing ya thing Momma BRANDY
LOVE LOVE LOVE BRANDY Her voice is IT for me, I could never get tired of her singing!!
Another vocal performance that Brocka just slaughters it don’t make know sense this chick is a vocal beast. Its sad that real talent can’t shine in the industry anymore. And all we have is overhyped, commercial mediocore artists singing about single ladies, video phones, love sex and magic, and umbrellas. Can’t wait for the sixth album Brandy.
And she is signed to a new label Interscope Records she’ll announce it later this year.
I thought 50 already self destructed.
Awww…I was BRANDYS BIGGEST FAN THROUGHOUT MIDDLE SCHOOL…lol Brandy was the ish in the 90s. I miss the Aaliyahs Brandys and Monicas…man my generation was the ish. 90s music was so mellow and cool…now music is sooo completely off rack. Its not even about the music anymore. man, smh.
Man everytime I hear or see timberland I think of Aaliyah. I profoundly miss that girl. I just knew music would never be the same after LiLi and Lefteyes passin…
Hell Yeah, Timberland, I love Kings of Leon, The Fray, Daughty, and Paramore.
And GaGa(words cant explain how awesome she is), and JT, love it. hope it all turns out great.
Oh BTW Brandy looks great. she has always been soooo pretty to me and her voice sounds great. Now this is how singers should interact with there fans, dont see that as much anymore as well……miss those days terribly.
OMG, here we go with calling people “real singers” and “real artists”.
Quick fact: not all mainstream is bad, and not all underrated and underground is good.
Music feeds into each individuals taste. So saying someone is a “real artist”, and others are not(just because you dont perfer their music) is mad ignorant.
I say like what you like, and dont pay attention to the “mainstream” or “popular” artists if they feed your taste buds. No need to down sucessful artist, to make your fav seem supreme.
^ dont
Sounds Like That Timbo Alnum Is Gonna Be HOOOTTT!!! Cant Wait!!!
And Oh,Brandy Is Very Talented
Brandy sounded great and I can’t wait for her next cd.
50 cent’s career is dead, he needs to hang up the towel.
WOW, Brandy! So many times there are posts of female r & b singers and the comments say “where is the talent,” …there it is.
brandy ate dat song for lunch…..i like how u said dat….lol she’s the best tho…gotta love her
Brandy kills it everytime! Some are suprised by this, but I have all of her albums and have been a fan since Never Say Never.. I had to go back and discover her debut because I was young, but she was extremely soulful on that album. All of her albums give you something different.
How could someone say she was oversinging? she’s in the bathroom! Most people think Brandy sings at a whisper all the time anyway because they are just late as hell. She has one of the most versatile voices in the industry.
People, stop trying to make this amazing video controversial.. SMH I agree with #17 – crabs in a barrel. Unhappy females are the worst!
ok. brandy is amazing as always.. that girl is so underrated and how pretty does she look there?!?
fifity cent’s album cover is gross and very unpleasant to look at. he is already ugly enough.. he need not make it worse.
50 Cent sucks. washed up. has been.
50′s cover sucks…looks like he caught leprosy or sumthin
Brandy’s voice is so classic and beautiful…her runs are undeniably fantastic
Go ‘head on B!!! I heard that girlfriendzzzz! Do it and I can’t wait until we have another album….wish u the best on a new record home
50, I like the dramatic effects of the album cover
Love it Brandy- do ur thing girl!!! 50 is trying waaaay tooooo hard…NEEXT!
Great vocals from Brandy =)
It’s no rumor…Brandy WILL BE on Shock Value2..On two tracks one entitled “Meet In The Middle” where she’s rapping and singing… And she IS signed to a record label, I would reveal who it is but I’ll let her confirm it..
LMFAO at Brandy shitting on Ashanti…in HER BATHROOM!
Its not her fault she has the voice and Ashanti sounds like shit all the time.
Brandy is a vocal BEAST and the industry is praising her for this video she did in the bathroom. Most of the girls now can’t even do this on stage and Brandy was just playing around in her bathroom.
Maybe it is just me but brandy sounds BAD! Don’t get me wrong thats my girl but I didn’t think that this was a good look. it doesn’t sound good. Too many add ons and its shaky
BRANDY COULD SING THE PHONE BOOK, THE DICTIONARY, A NOVEL AND MAKE IT SOUND AMAZING.
NO OTHER R&B FEMALE ARTIST OUT NOW CAN DO THAT.
BRANDY’S VOICE IS EVERYTHING & MORE!
Brandy is not even thinking about Ashanti! Y’all kill me.
She ate that shit! Go Brandy! Show the world what your fans already knew. she is a beast!!!!
loveeeee Timbo !!!!!!!!!!
WHY 50 CENT’S ABLUM LOOKS LIKE THAT!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVdFjBWVOmM
Braandy sounded wonderful. That’s what real singing is all about.
I like 50′s album cover, But, he better come HARD.
Timbo don’t need to release another album. Just produce.
LOVE YOU BRAN BRAN!!!!
is sad that ppl dont do brandy anymore
she paved the way for keyshia cole
& all the artists today who been doin it since they were teens
brandy BEEN killing it vocally since she was 14.
record deal or not, the b*** got cake
& thats all that matters
To JJ: I am light skinned, and I did buy HUMAN. Not hating its a lot of artist that I like other than brandy. I’m just saying that if you are very pretty and lighter you have more appeal. I love JHuD, Fantasia, Jasmine, etc. They have no other gimick like dancing, stick thin, or light. Sorry
love it brandy, you still got it girl
yo! thats hwat BRANDy..p.s. what hair she wearing that ish looking real good wanna get me some of that hair…get on that concrete..lol…and fiddy need to take a nap
