Brandy: Soul September

In her exclusive Apple Music playlist, Brandy highlights her favorite R&B and soul records. One of them is D’Angelo’s 2000 smash “Untitled (How Does It Feel),” known for its steamy video: “Aside from the artistic visual that accompanied this song, D’Angelo took his time creating this musically, and you can tell,” Brandy tells Apple Music. “His voice and his choices were art!” Brandy also lavishes praise on Prince & The New Power Generation’s 1991 ballad “Diamonds and Pearls.” “I love Prince and I have even sampled him in the past,” she says. “‘Diamonds and Pearls’ is a song that promotes healthy, genuine love, and the production is mesmerizing.”
