About The Artist

Brandy has enlisted Chance the Rapper for a new song called “Baby Mama.” “The inspiration for Baby Mama was of course my daughter and how she makes me a better person,” Brandy wrote on her YouTube page “I wanted to do a song about her and speak to all baby mamas out there that may feel like they can’t make it or they can’t push through, you know, if you use your child as an inspiration you can do anything and I want to everybody to feel that.” Listen to “Baby Mama” below.

“Baby Mama” was produced by Hit-Boy. Brandy announced that the single will receive an accompanying music video this coming Monday (May 4). The singer’s last studio album was 2012’s Two Eleven. Last year, she joined Anderson .Paak onstage at Coachella for a live rendition of “Jet Black.”

Brandy, momma to Sy’rai, and Chance the Rapper, wife guy to Kirsten Corley, dropped a Mother’s Day anthem just in time to remind you that it’s Mother’s Day on May 10. That’s enough time to mentally prepare for a phone call, send a thoughtful gift over, or dedicate Brandy’s new song “Baby Mama” to the mother figures in your life. As much as Brandy is singing about being a mom, unbothered by her Instagram comments, “Baby Mama” is also a celebration of her daughter, 17-year-old Sy’rai, her “pearl in the rough.” “Whole world looking at me single mama / This song ain’t just for me, it’s for every mama / Every day I breathe it’s for my little mama / I’m every woman and a baby mama,” she sings in the chorus, sending love to her Cinderella and musical fairy godmother, Whitney Houston. After Brandy validates all these hardworking moms, Chance the Rapper comes through to talk some sense into baby daddies. “Look, I know it’s hard when your baby mama don’t want you,” he relates.

Brandy is the self-titled debut album by American R&B singer Brandy Norwood. It was released by Atlantic Records on September 27, 1994 in North America, December 5 in the United Kingdom and on several dates in Europe and Oceania, starting on February 3, 1995. The album contains a range of contemporary genres, and the songs are a mix of soft hip hop soul, pop and contemporary mid-1990s R&B. They were chiefly produced by Keith Crouch who would contribute all four single releases from the album. Aside from Crouch, Norwood worked with a range of other writers and producers, including R&B group Somethin' for the People, Arvel McClinton, and Damon Thomas.
