Human (Brandy Norwood Album)
''Human'' is the fifth studio album by American singer Brandy. It was released on December 5, 2008 by Epic Records, Knockout Entertainment and Koch Records. The album was Norwood's debut Epic Records release, following her split with Atlantic Records in 2005, and her reunion with longtime collaborator and mentor Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins, who executively produced and wrote most of the album with his songwriting collective. Despite being generally well-received by critics, ''Human'' debuted at number 15 on the US ''Billboard'' 200 with opening week sales of 73,000 copies, becoming Brandy's lowest-charting album since her eponymous debut (1994). As of 2012, ''Human'' has sold 214,000 copies in the United States, failing to match the commercial success of predecessors. While leading single "Right Here (Departed)" scored Norwood her biggest chart success since "Full Moon" (2002), the second and final " Long Distance" was not as commercially successful. ''Human'' would become the onl ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

''Nefertiti'' is a studio album by American jazz musician Miles Davis, released in March 1968. Recorded on June 7, June 22–23 and July 19, 1967, at Columbia's 30th Street Studio, the album was Davis' last fully acoustic album. Davis himself did not contribute any compositions- three were written by tenor saxophonist Wayne Shorter, two by pianist Herbie Hancock and one by drummer Tony Williams. Music The fourth album by Miles Davis's Second Great Quintet, ''Nefertiti'', is best known for the unusual title track, on which the horn section repeats the melody numerous times without individual solos while the rhythm section improvises underneath, reversing the traditional role of a rhythm section. C. Michael Bailey of All About Jazz cited it as one of the quintet's six albums between 1965 and 1968 that introduced the post-bop subgenre. Shortly after this album, Hancock recorded a different version of "Riot" for his 1968 album '' Speak Like a Child.'' In 1978, Shorter recorded ...
