~Elle Shanice~ APPROVED ✔: Brandy "Two Eleven"

Brandy is back after a four-year hiatus with her new album, Two Eleven, which has reached as high as #3 on the Billboard 200 & #1 on the R&B/Hip Hop charts.

This is somewhat of a new sound for Brandy without losing her signature style of singing. She has a wide range of topics in these songs, from love to break ups to self-esteem.

"Wildest Dreams" is the latest single from the album and the first song on it. It is obviously talking about her relationship with boyfriend Ryan Press & it's great to see and hear her in love again. It's inspiring for all us girls (like myself) who just want someone real to love them for who they are.

Some of my other favorites from the album include "Slower", which instructs a guy to slow down & take his time on a romantic evening. Also, "No Such Thing As Too Late" talks about being in LOVE with someone who is worth it BEFORE you lay with them. It's refreshing to hear this in a song, especially in a genre geared towards "taking clothes off.

"Without You", "Hardly Breathing", & "Scared of Beautiful" are just three more songs that showcase Brandy's vocal ability, which I've always said was one of the best in the industry.

Of course, the first single was "Put It Down" featuring Chris Brown & turned out to be a hit, reaching #3 on the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.

I'm glad that Brandy is back to singing because as a BIG fan I know she's been through a lot the past few years. I will always support her...She made such hits as "Have You Ever" & "The Boy Is Mine" & don't forget one of the GREATEST show of my childhood...MO to the E to the...MOESHA!!!!
