    "Afrodisiac" is Brandy’s most personally revealing album to date and her least lyrically fluffy, but its intimacy is hamstrung by the MTV-flavoured, formulaic gloop with which most contemporary, American R&B now seems to be contaminated.

    So, so very displeased. I bought this album with the anticipation of every track being like "Talk About Our Love"; I was wrong. To me, that is the only song she actually "SANG" on. What's up, Brandy? At least when you were younger you were not afraid to let your true talent come forth. I want the old Brandy back!! (Keep in mind I've purchased every album the girl has ever realeased). This downtrodden, confused effort really stinks. Let's try this again, shall we?… Expand
