Human is coming soon. Here's an official press release:
Epic Records proudly announces the release of Human, the new full-length studio album from the multi-platinum-selling Grammy-winning R&B/pop music
superstar Brandy, available online and in stores on Tuesday, December 9th.
Brandy's Epic Records debut and first new album since 2004's Grammy-nominated RIAA gold-certified Afrodisiac, Human is a bold new collection
of songs reflecting the artist's evolution as a musician and an individual.
“Human is my most personal album to date,” said Brandy. “I have grown so much since my last album. Being able to express myself and my journey through my music is a
feeling I can't describe. With this new chapter of my life it feels good to have Rodney, a familiar face, by my side again. He brings out emotions in me like nobody
else.”
Reunited with executive producer Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins, who first collaborated with Brandy on her 1998 multi-platinum-selling collection
Never Say Never, Brandy has created the most emotionally resonant album of her career with songs and performances reflecting the truth and complexity of
her experiences.
“It feels good to be back in the lab with Brandy again,” said Rodney Jerkins. “We've always made great records and I'm humbled and honored to be continuing our
legacy. The sound might be new, bigger, and more uplifting but we've kept our musical promise by making great songs and great music once again. There is no musical
combination like ours!!!”
The album's title is a real life mirror of Brandy as a woman, an artist, a musician and a performer, communicating what it means to be fully Human: strong yet vulnerable,
candid and triumphant, in love with life and in touch with the things of the spirit.
Other key tracks on Human include “Fall,” which Brandy co-wrote with the chart-topping British dance/pop singer/songwriter Natasha Bedingfield, as
well as the new songs “Long Distance,” “Piano Man,” and “Torn Down.” Brandy's other musical collaborators on Human include
Brian Kennedy
(Rihanna/“Disturbia”), emerging production whiz
RedOne
(Kat DeLuna,
2006 World Cup Official Single “Hips Don't Lie” with Shakira & Wyclef Jean), and
James Fauntleroy
(Jordin Sparks/“No Air”).
