Personal turmoil has always proved to be a creative elixir for musicians, so it's not surprising that Brandy Norwood would dip into that well for inspiration on her fourth album, AFRODISIAC. In addition to her transformation from a teenage pop/TV star to an international music sensation, the 25-year-old vocalist followed motherhood with a divorce and also stepped away from longtime production partner Rodney Jerkins. In the process, Brandy cast herself in a much sexier and more mature light, which is reflected throughout these 15 songs.

Brandy's wisest moves were enlisting hip-hop guru Timbaland behind the boards and bringing Kanye West along for the ride as well. The Timbaland-produced songs, particularly the snappy title cut (with its intricately layered vocal tracks) and the slow-rolling funk of "Focus," gurgle with the Virginia-based maestro's trademark staccato beats and rich production style. Chicago native West is equally impressive, dueting with Brandy amid sweet, Gamble & Huff-flavored string arrangements in the autobiographical "Talk about Our Love." With its engaging and expressive tracks, AFRODISIAC proves to be another victory for the old adage about great art emerging from emotional pain.

Rolling Stone (p.116) - 4 stars out of 5 - "Brandy lets her cool voice stream through jams that, as one hot track is titled, 'Focus'."
Rolling Stone (p.141) - Included in Rolling Stone's Top 50 Records Of 2004 - "[N]ot only her best but also the year's outstanding R&B disc."
Entertainment Weekly (pp.85-6) - "AFRODISIAC, Brandy's meatiest album to date, also sports a few superior dance numbers..." - Grade: A-
Vibe (pp.139-40) - 3 1/2 out of 5 - "[M]ature-layered music....Timbaland crafts a befitting backdrop for Ms. Norwood to reintroduce herself as a full-grown woman....It's here crazy, sexy, cool revival that's the true bliss of this fourth coming."

I love this CD what gives, I wish Brandy would make another CD soon because there gonna start filming an Aaliyah movie in Aug. 2008 and Monica's new CD comes out sometime in Aug. 2008 to.

Timberland found a new muse and they work extremely well together. Her smooth voice over his funky beats. One of my favorite r&b albums of all time.

For most artists who are discovered behind the mixing boards, making the transfer from producer to MC proves a daunting task. Fortunately for Kanye West, his verbal skills more than rise to the challenge of his consistently superior beats. A sprawling concept record that tackles issues of everyday life with wisecracking humor and unexpected honesty, THE COLLEGE DROPOUT confirms West's status as one of hip-hop's most refreshing voices. The leadoff single, "Through the Wire," perfectly exemplifies West's distinct vision. Recorded while his jaws were still wired shut after a near-fatal car accident, ...

A special limited edition packaged like an old fashioned 78 LP. On Rapture and Giving You the Best That I Got, Anita Baker embraced a blend of technology and "real instruments" -- a definite contrast to the completely high-tech approach of so much '80s and '90s R&B. But on Compositions, producer Michael J. Powell moved even closer to a '70s-like approach to R&B -- recording Baker's vocals live in the studio, employing a live rhythm section, ...
