  • she didn't lip sync the whole thing... she was singing along to a lead track for a lot of it... especially toward the end. Either way it's a hot performance and the vocal is crazy.. prerecorded or not.lol

  • I love this song from madame Brandy!

  • Comment removed

  • she looks 20 here i dont care that she lipsynced she doesnt do it alot however during this era she did either way she still.can sing

  • mo to the

  • i'm sorry but i know brandy since she started and followed her the whole way through and i know she is good live but this was for sure a tape and not her doing it live!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • brandy can blow?? lol

  • @redninja2010 you cool

  • You know why I'm not mad she lip sync some of this, because everybody in their right mind knows that brandy can blow!! She's one of the best!

  • she wat gettin it in diz da  first time i ever saw her dancin

  • Brandy does a lot of her own background vocals to emphasize her voice because it's somewhat soft. But, even so they're playing the background with her voice, she's singing the lead vocals not lipsyncing all of it. There is no way she could sing all those part of the song at one time. She always performs live and is very good at it.

  • @MrMarla123 I agree she is singing live you can tell because she is emphasizing notes to be sure her voice is distinguished among her backgrounds cause they can easily blend and overshadow her own voice

  • @cryptotech2004

    But I do think her voice has gotten stronger with age. Now, the background vocals is just a beautiful effect that shows her range off.

  • Her voice is stunner. I cant comprehend it. It's unfathomable.

  • I wish i had her body

  • @redninja2010 Color has nothing to do with it but I sometimes say the same thing when I talk about artist that are white! Strange world we live in!

  • she is the bomb i love her i want her to come bac out with sum more good singing

  • I love Brandy and love most of her music but, I don't know why people say she can dance. She is no dancer.

  • lip syncing to a speedily voice?

  • Wat do u mean she didn't sing it live??? That was live she ALWAYS sings live but yea awsome performance by brandy love the vocals and the dancing!!!

  • she sound good as hell live... ven though it may not be live its a different version

  • A few years back I used to think this wasnt live but she is clearly heard at the end which makes me believe that they dub performances for t.v....Ive been to studio shows where I watch the singer perform it live in there, but on tv it sounds totally different like they put em on a track....I dont understand that process.

  • she's really singing. because at one point she sings real fast and on the original track she sings at a normal paste. she is really singing.

  • Well, I can't exactly tell if it was lipped it looks like she started at 2:37, as if Brandy needs to do that all the time...But "Who Is She 2 U" is not an easy song to sing especially live because the recording doesn't leave any breaks in it...so it's still a good showing...

  • This was def lipped. Lucky for her fans, her lip synchinq days are OVER.

  • she sucked i like her so it hurts me to say that

  • @hinorashito obviously u've never heard brandy singing otherwise u wouldn't say that, she definitely can sing live.Get your facts

  • @scaramosca80 She startined singing towards the end tho. If you really listen throuqh the track, you can hear her.

  • COMPLETE LIPSYNC.........she's still one of the best singers out there!

  • Brandy killed it love her.

  • OH get it Brand that was HOTTTT

  • Brandy was singing live but she also had the song pre- recoreded and you can hear her singing over the track but it was still a good performance though.

  • her breath control is great. u can tell thats really here singin

  • i live and love brandy!

  • Who says Brandy can't sing live? Whoever you are, you need to shut the hell up and sit the fuck down...You're looking really stupid right now...This performance proves otherwise...She just takes a break during the main dancing parts...But other than that, she's a beast!!

  • J roc this is LIVE

  • well she lips sings in the begining after that she's singing alone with the track

  • Brandy needs to learn that her voice makes up for anything that could possibly be wrong... even though i personally think her dancing is cute better outfit tho

  • yeah, its not full lipped..she can sing!

  • 1:37-1:40 CUTE!

  • lip synching...not cool, love u brandy but not cool

  • Love the song, but she was never a dancer. My personal opinion is I wish she would have wore something hot with some high heels and worked that stage.

  • 2:44-2:46 YES YES AND MORE YES - that lil move was so cute.

    And yesh, it was pre-recorded she was singing as well but not as much... SO WHAT guys you know she can sing .. give her a breaak!

  • wow 5 excellent performance

  • Actually ere1's rite lol. She re-recorded it 4 live performances so she soundz different 4rm da cd version, and she's singin along with the track. das y sumtymz ull hear double. But irregardless she'z a BEAST of a vocalist and nowadayz she's doin less dancin & mo live singin but I appreciate her eitha way

  • Live performance? Try to dance and hum a song that you know in the comfort of your own home and you'll discover it is hellish hard. I don't think given the choreography, which she never really turns out, or her singing style, make it even remotely possible for her to do BOTH live. Given that the dancing was not really needed she could've just sang it live but I think we all (who lover her) know better. Much love to her new career horizons. Thank you in advance guys.

  • This sounds live and great!!! I love brandy! she is the best!

  • It looks like a fun performance!

  • Someone mentioned on here that she sounds like the child michael jackson on here and i think she does, its no surprise though cuz she does count him as one of her influences and they have done duets on eachothers 2001 albums. Michaels voice tone is both light and dark just like brandys.

  • Wow i really never thought of that but yeah i can hear that too... interesting...

  • she's cool when she says "clap your hands c'mon" :D:D

    she's the best !>

  • She is singing live jus listen!! HeR vioces have been the same since she came out

  • She isn't singing live...What she did, not really mad at her, cause a lot of artists do this for songs that they really wanna dance on, but she went in the booth and recorded it live with no extra instruments or vocal enhancements and that's what's playing in the back!

  • This was live. Just listen.

  • Great performance!

  • Brandy does sing live..tht is live!! SHe jus sings soo flawlessly it sounds fake! Cuz her recent performances she sounds like tht!!! She jus a vocal genius!!

  • This IS NOT live. This is lip syncing, which has been pre recorded and then performed. If you watch every performance of this song from this era you'll notice it sounds exactly the same.

  • Brandy is the BEST!

    =)

  • Brandy is my very very favorite artist but she not singing live this is a pre recorded track and im kinda dissapointed for the first time

  • uhh it is half live though

  • i can do without that hairline..but OMG she sounds amazing

  • ELLEN REMINDS ME OF AMANDA BYNES!

  • It was a front lace wig!!! it looked good but tha hirline could have been better

  • It was looking dreadful..but its looking cute in recent days

  • Are u more worried about her music/performance or her hair.... who cares? that's her hair.. she aint selling us a look, she selling us Music. If more people would stick to music the basics, Today's music wouldn't be so materialistic,superficial , and empty

  • thatas mean

  • this vieo is amazing love the dress.

  • to whom ever posted this how can you say she didnt sing this live. this is very live. shes that good, we just arent used to preformers singing well without all the studio fixes

  • As big of a brandy fan as i am, she didn't sing live, but at times you can hear her singing under the track.

  • @pikzzi Sorry boo, but it's not live. You can hear her sing over the track at times in the middle and towards the end. Don't get me wrong, Ima a Brandy STAN and know that she can recreate every run/adlib on this track, but this wasn't live.

  • Brandy was doing the damn thing with the dancing!

  • I think she sings this in a higher key. She sounds great! She sounds like a young Michael Jackson!!

  • whats the name of this song..? great performance too...

  • Who Is She 2 U is the name of that brandy song.....it is from her fourth album afrodisiac...

  • i love brandy she my dawg and distant cousin, but if yall think she singing live on here yall are out yall mind.... BUT I LOVE HER ANYWAY AND DIS SONG!!!!!!

  • i miss when music use to sound like this. i miss singers like mya or rappers like chinggy

  • I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY here live performance sound so much better than her recorded material....??? catch her on tyra??? she sounds amazing the energy is crazy...

  • i lovee her voicee...we know she can sing n u canot sing and dance and sound flawless

  • sneakers??????

  • Yes, she DID KILL it!

  • This was a great performance, I love Ellen too she's sooooo funny and has the moves when she dances!

  • i don't give damn if she lip sync or not all i know is this was a great performance and she's a great singer dancer and entertainer! i wish you all would stop arguing about it

  • love brandy

  • daaaayuuuuuuum !

  • she should stick with these guys .... they make a great team!!!!!!

  • great performance

  • She still the best....

  • I love this Brandy, Afrodisiac is a great album

  • Lip singing artist I hate them its not true real talent at all.

    Its not fair to the fans that we go out and buy the album we spend r money on them but the artist dont want to put all there heart into live performance.

    I'd wuld rather c the artist giv there all live, they want all r money Right??? So the fans shuld get that much and return. They dont want us to download Right??? Then y cant they sing live ALL THE FUCKIN TIME??

  • Lip sing or not she killed this performance and da song

  • i love her...she is a true diva....

  • I never seen her lip sync. and even if she did. she did lip syn its no problem because she's a a great performer.

  • No need 4 lip sync...mosdef *LIVE*

  • It not live! read the intro.

  • Even a dummy know its live, she sang over da track stoopid lol

  • I love Brandy but she is CLEARLY lipsyncing lol. The track has been rerecorded and mixed to sound live, seriously he didnt even lip the 'let me know' at 1:30 lol she does start sing on the bridge though at 2:47 you can hear her singing along with the pre recorded track, shes a great singer but this is lipsync its not an issue becuz EVERYONE does it

  • Do you notice that by the end of the bridge when Brandy stops having to do choreography, she starts actually singing? I think it was hard for her remember the steps and sing at the same time... when she's just free to stand, she seems like she's more comfortable singing live.

  • Yes but remember the steps has nothing to do with it.. Its impossibe to sing and dance without lagging in one or the other. Anyone who sings knows singing is 80% breathing and No can sing and dance together full out....NO ONE lol

  • Justin timberlake can...aint no hatin on brandy she's dope, im just sayin

  • You can definitely tell she was actually singing at a point in this performance, especially towards the end.

  • live... just echoed

  • brandy can sing....period...why hate on a blk female doin her thing????

  • live or not...she still a beast on them vocals

  • I love Brandy....her voice is amazing ;-)

  • afro is a timeless cd, in 10yrs u still will be able to bang it.

  • Her new album HUMAN is in stores today!!! So excited!!!

  • oh my gosh.....i cant believe its not like # 1 most sold album on itunes when i got it, like 5 minutes ago...it is so awesome

  • She is So talented Brandy Rocks!!

  • pre-recorded vocals....but we all know Brandy can sing

  • pre-recorded or not...she still slaughtered the vocals!

  • anyway it truly doesnt matter if she is singing live or not(i do believe she is) the point is that she can still sing..

  • She can still sing, you can tell by the prerecorded vocal's but this is not live honey

  • She is definately singing live, I have this cd, and her 'ad-libs' on the cd are totally different from the live performance. She's REALLY talented, and it sucks that people dont see that anymore.. I hope she comes back on the scene!

  • she's singing with the track...but the track vocal is very high and her volume is down low

  • the track and her mic are equal so if she were to take a breath she could fake it and move right along it has everything with control when dancing

  • it is a trick that alot of performers beyonce, janet, and even brandy use... the head mic is on but she chimes in every once and a while with live vocals but it is still pre recorded to sound live. But you can really tell towards the end that she is singing with the pre recorded track.

  • Don't mention Beyonce in that mess!

  • thank you, beyonce always gotta come up even if we talking about totally off topic

  • But its true though and whats wrong with bringing her up she is one of the main people out there that most people most people now of that dance and sing at the same time and she does lipsinging when dancing but its not the whole song its some parts!

  • bitch shut up.. she dat diva hoe!!

  • Brandy Can sing hella Good!

  • She is singing live. I luv dis performance

  • is it live or not?

  • It's not live...

  • She was definately singing, she got skills

  • One of the best ive seen her... just miss it and cant wait to she back all the way

  • I almost forgot how much I loved Brandy growing up and how consistent she was. This clip is a nice reminder and her new song ("Right here (Departed)") is BANGIN'!!!

  • She is actually singing. She sang it the same way she did at the Miss Teen USA thing!

  • I love this performance, Go Brandy u so so goooood!!

  • man she rocks when she's dancing.

  • She doesn't start singin' until the B part. Even then she's singin' over the track, It' still a hot performance

  • I love brandy nd everything but this was not a live performance at all

  • i luv brandys voice but this is prerecored dancing and singing at the same time isnt her i think she was trying to keep up with those youngins yall know who im talkin about

  • Thats live b.c everytime she sings live she sound like that 2 me her voice done change again b.c n da 90s her voice was soft den n da full moon days it was deep and sexy but now with her new cd cooming out its like a mix of da voice i think her voice changes b.c of age and weight i say weight b.c n full moon she was bigger so her voice was deeper now shes skinner and her voice is lighter but dats no recording dats live

  • she did sing live thats easy to see

  • She was singing live she sounded really good

  • she sounded like she did back in the Brandy/Never Say Never days...instead of the FUllMoon/Afrodisiac days when her voice was madd deep.

  • it is live

  • looks like she's singing live to me...

    she just happens to be one of the few artist that actually has a really good singing voice...

    there's just a backing track for the chorus...

    And people she can dance while singing because she isn't doing that much dancing ^_^

  • who cares if she is lip singing just enjoy the video

  • she is singing only the chorus has a back track and every artist does that

  • no she isn't ... this is a typical "live soundin" recorded version. she could never dance and sing like dat... but still love her

  • finALLy sum1 whO kNows reAL pre-recorDed VoCALZ...yEa sum folks can dance n sing at da saMe timE..And so caN brandY. But dis is da same tracK she used singing "live" on the today show and i went to that...she is singin along to a pre-recorded version of the sonG, but at certain parts she'll jump in and out hence from Like 2:35..on. She sounds doubled in vocals cuz she is singin at that time..but not during the fuLL performance...and i LOOOVVVEEE bRandy...but heY even the Greatest r Lippin Now...

  • she really is singing wat r u talking about?

  • 2005.

  • Why are ya'll giving "khmerto .. what the fuck" the time of day. We aint got to prove anything to anyone. And Brandy (MY BABY), def. don't have to prove anything to that fool. Rock on B*Rocka

  • Brandy is BEAUTIFUL, and also very talented. Don't hate celebrate! Black beauty at it's finest. =)

    You need to get your head checked... And your eyes too.

  • lol i know dats right

  • That's true... Brandy is a very talented artist. This person is trippen.

  • That was derogatory to say about a black person. You need to think about what you say before you say it. You offend people. Brandy is very talented. Until you can do what she does you can talk shit. Someone somewhere gone kick your ass for being racist.

  • she dance real good, got her own style

  • Whatever u hating ass BITCH

  • haha ur funny u fuking insecure piece of shit

  • she sung it live..and then lipsynced to it ....very creative actually, but not authentic by any means......the only person who can sing effortlessly live and still do all that crazy dancing is Beyonce, check last years BET Awards where she performed Get Me Bodied....that was a very entertaining.....Brandy is still great though

  • Umm...sorry to inform of of this but that performance, along with many others sung by Beyonce aren't Live..still gud performances tho'!=)

  • so you dont think that Get Me Bodied performance at the 2007 BEt Awards was live?.....of course she was singing to a track but you can still tell that the vocals were live

  • It wasn't live, sang to a pre-recorded track, same as Brandy is doing.. gives a 'live feel'. Very common in the industry, most do; Sing a song live, while recording it, including adlibs ('Come on y'all'.. 'that's right', do it'! 'stand up now'.ect), b4 a a big venue, then lip it when they perform it. It's not taking nothing away, 'cause it's still they're voice, but for a reason another they air on the side of caution, and 'not risk it'....Check mulitiple performances of GMB, same track used.

  • yes it wasnt live some I think she might have sang the verses but the rest was lip syncing
