Mixerr Album Reviews #286

This is Michael Mixerr. I will review the Two Eleven album by Brandy Norwood. This album is more pop influenced.

Due to the automobile accident and return of her acting career with the television show Family Business with Ray J, Brandy did not get the time to promote the Two Eleven album as she planned. Due to creative differences with Brandy and Atlantic Records, her album was not released in 2011 as planned.

On Put It Down, Brandy shows us how she puts it down with keeping up the current trends of today's audience by featuring Chris Brown as a guest artist. This single holds and weighs down the album the most. Put It Down was the most promoted song off the whole album. Put It Down is upbeat trap beats over a pop filled love song; which is not bad.

So sick and Slower were songs that I weren't really feeling. I'll be honest and not mean. Wish Your Love Away and Can You Hear Me Now? had potential to be singles. So did What You Need. (If it was 1998 of course.) Wildest Dreams was ok.

With all personal issues and legal drama aside, I can say that this album was a flop. It seems that every Brandy album after Fullmoon album sales went downhill with strategic marketing promotion. I hope Brandy does better on her next album if she does another album. The only good song was Put It Down. Buy this album if you are a Brandy completionist.

I rate this album, Two Eleven, 0/5ΓΈ.
