Brandy was only 15 when she released her debut self-titled album. It peaked at number 20 on the U.S. Billboard charts. This album has two of her most notable and successful songs, ‘I Wanna Be Down’ and ‘Baby’. After this album was released Brandy went on tour as the opening act for Boyz II Men. 

For her next album, she recruited well-known produced Rodney Jerkins, known as Darkchild. This album contained Brandy’s most successful song to date, The Boy is Mine. A duet with Monica. This song became the most successful song by a female duo in music history and is one of the best-selling records in U.S. history. Unsurprisingly, this album became Brandy’s best-selling and gave her her first number one song and number two album. 

Brandy released her 3rd studio album, Full Moon in 2002 (#2 Billboard, #1 R&B Charts) and her 4th entitled Afrodisiac in 2004. Full Moon is one of her most influential albums- this album birthed the reference “The Vocal Bible”. Afrodisiac, while not her top-selling, was Brandy’s most critically acclaimed album. Her fifth album, Human was also produced by Rodney Jerkins and reached 15 on the U.S. Billboard Charts. Her sixth album was released in 2012 and hit #3 on U.S. Billboard charts and #1 on the U.S. R&B Hip-Hop charts. 

In 2019, Brandy appeared on the single Love Again by Daniel Cesar. This song earned #1 on the Adult R&B charts and a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Performance. In July 2020, Brandy released her seventh studio album, B7. This was her first release as an independent artist. It was received well critically and debuted at #12 on the U.S. Billboard Charts.
