CAN'T WAIT FOR BRITNEY'S NEW ALBUM!

[DarkroomPro]

sorry Afrodisiac was a cool album but Never-say-never and fullmoon were amazing and it was because of Darkchild, brandy is amazing, buut them together just works!

Hmm, unfortunately Brandy and Darkchild haven't been seeing eye to eye on a musical creative level...He seems jealous that she decides to work with other producers because he feels that he should be in charge of all of her music and work with her like the great music they've made in the past...You know, he said if it ain't broke, don't fix it, but clearly the relationship is broken and needs some repair. I wish Brandy the best in her future success!

@singa4lyfe12 oh I'm sorry does playing Piano and Guitar, Producing, Writing, Executive Producing on Both Albums and TV Specials, Directing, Singing, Dancing, Designing and being involved in Story Boarding, Hair/Makeup and Costuming not count as being talented. or this watch?v=s5Y3uerWCzk

@Kingjames313 You're giving him credit for songs he didn't produce, IE "Almost Doesn't Count", that's not him. What do you mean as a male, you can't ride with Have You Ever? That must be an insecurity YOU suffer with your masculinity, sorry to say. My dad will bump Toni Braxton's "Unbreak My Heart" and sing along with it, and he's totally masculine and secure with it. I can't agree with such a s statement like that.

britney spears is pop culture i <33333333333333 her

I'll look him up, but those songs u mentioned, to me, just aren't the artists best. For instance, Brandy's "Have You Ever" to me is a beautiful Ballad, but I'm more into her songs like "Boy Is Mine", "The Hard Way", "Almost Doesn't Count", "Happy" etc. Darkchild has that extra "bounce" to his music that I can relate to. As a man, I can't ride around to "Have You Ever". It's too epic and ballad-like for my taste. Of course I can appreciate it, but I like the Darkchild sound it's infectious.

@Kingjames313 The artists' name is the product, the albums, not the producer. Darkchild said Briteney was stupid for not taking the "Telephone" song from Gaga. He was being selfish and a FAThead. David Foster is a renowed Canadian musician, responsible for discovering talent like Celine Dion, he's produced hits like Whitney's "I have nothing", Toni Braxton's "Unbreak My Heart", Brandy's "Have You Ever". He's amazing and far better than Darkchild, you have GOT to look him up.

[Kingjames313]

@hamrto1 Why so much hate? All the name calling is juvenile and totally unnecessary. Rodney is a genius and that's that. Brandy, Monica & Britney would have NO career were it not for Darkchild, especially because their biggest records are produced by him with the exception of maybe Britney, but she's a trash artist anyway. David Foster's name rings no bells, what songs are he responsible for?

[hamrto1]

@Kingjames313 I think Brandy is a better asset to Darkchild for his production. How could he express it without it being through her? He takes too damn much credit for success, hell he even threw shade at Britney for refusing to do Gaga's Telephone...He's too fuckin full of himself. Check David Foster's stats, and compare them to FATchild, and you'll see that his career SHITS ALL OVER PORKchild Jerkins.

[Kingjames313]

@hamrto1 Don't give me that blasphemy. Look at the albums Brandy has without Darkchild...Her career collapsed when they stopped working together. Rodney Jerkins is a genius. Fuck David Foster, no one knows him, it's all about Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins. If you don't like him, then why even check the vid out? You know he's the best and hate that u can't change it, lol.

[hamrto1]

@Kingjames313 Wrong, Rodney didn't produce the entire album. David Foster had some production credits on there, and he greatly outclasses FATchild.
