For me, it's Monica who had the talent and the voice. She just has the wrong people behind her. Like I stated in a another post, she needs to get rid of her management and get an entirely new crew of producers. Although Brandy has a voice, it is somewhat thin at times. She always has the luck of the draw when it comes to producers as well as the people representing her.


I think you got it backwards when it comes to Brandy and her producers, after watching her singing "A change is gonna come", I discovered how much they repressed her talent instead of showcasing it.

Monica was alright when she 1st started out(her 1st 2 albums were nice) but then she got into this "ride or die chic" persona that made her look/sound awkward.

nod thank you. Monica can blow the pants off of Brandy any day, it's just that Brandy always had the right people to bump her ass up better than what she really was.

I agree. Especially with their first 2 albums. Brandy had MUCH better material than Monica did. Monica's music was all over the place on her first 2 albums.

Her marketing people are obviously giving her the
Keyshia Cole look.

Monica and Brandy are equally both good singers imo as long
as they are singing the right material. Both singers will never
be great or legendary in the mold of an Aretha,Gladys,or Chaka
however.

Definitely. Brandy can sing too, but Monica's always been the better, more soulful singer. Brandy's music is better though.

"Baby, that was much too fast"...Goodnight dear sweet Prince. I'll love you always heart

Longer version added, page 1. This is the final version. She was advised to make it longer.

Monica and Brandy two artists i just could never deal with


I love Brandy! Granted, she needs better songs but she does have an amazing voice. She has chops like Kim Burrell & a warm and rich tone. I like Monica too but not as much as B.
