Love this song and love Brandy in general. Every album is a winner.  "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

I loved this when I was 15.
I remember this being on MTV hanging out with friends. | |

I never understood why Latifah was on this remix "Lack of home training crosses all boundaries." | |

I agree. Queen Latifah was out of place on this track. They should've had Da Brat on the final verse. | |

Da Brat had only been on the scene for less than a year when this remix was done. It showcases the three most successful solo hip-hop females of the late '80s to mid-'90s, which I assume was the point. Either way, I thought they all came correct."Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

Therefore, Da Brat was one of those most successful females. But that's beside the point. The point that I was applying is that Queen has the weakest verses on that track as if she was obviously looking/sounding out of place. If Brandy could've done this remix all over again, Da Brat would have been a better fit on the track AND the video with MC Lyte & Yo-Yo (IMO of course). | |

Therefore, Da Brat was one of those most successful females. Excuse you, but I already knew Da Brat was the first female rap solo artist to go platinum. That doesn't change the fact that she was new to the scene and didn't fit in with the vibe of the established hip-hop females guesting on new girl Brandy's remix. The point that I was applying is that Queen has the weakest verses on that track as if she was obviously looking/sounding out of place.

Yes, in your opinion. I disagree. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

That song blew her career up, Brandy said
she didn't even like the song when it was presented to her during the recording of it in the studio. That is a nice throwback jam! [Edited 11/7/09 6:48am]

Loved it, but I have not heard it in such a long time. I have this song on cassette too, or use to. I threw all my cassettes away 6 months ago. What on earth! 
Oh heck, that is why we have Youtube now.  Hit it. | |

For some reason, clear as day, I can recall the moment I saw/heard this video, and I went and bought the CD that day. | |

This funk is a serious joint | |

Baby was the showstoppa. "Baby" is probably my favorite song on the album. I also have a soft spot for the original version of "Brokenhearted" and the "I Dedicate" interludes."Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |
