  Afrodisiac (song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Afrodisiac" is a RandB song written by American rapper-songwriter Tim "Timbaland" Mosley and Kenisha and Kenneth Pratt for Brandy's same-titled fourth studio album Afrodisiac (2004).
The track was co-written by main Afrodisiac album producer Timbaland and longtime Brandy collaborators Kenisha and Kenneth Pratt.
"Afrodisiac" had been a candidate to become the album's lead single, also being one of three tracks that had leaked a half year before the official release date.

 Cobweb Strange / McFly / Afrodisiac - Atlanta Concert Review
Such is the concise, personal pronounless version of the history of Afrodisiac, purveyors of the hottest mirror-ball anthems from the time when the census showed an influx of Gibbs, "Off the Wall" only referred to Michael Jackson's album title, and we had a president with a lower I.Q. than Captain Dubya.
Afrodisiac is only the latest effort from the above-average white band who also regresses into Reaganomics (alliteration is awesome!) as the 80s cover group McFly and progs out as the mind-bending Cobweb Strange.
Afrodisiac gives the group the chance to get their groove on (as well as the give the girls a chance to wear more clothing than Wade for once).

 Brandy (entertainer) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Returning from yet another hiatus, Brandy's fourth album Afrodisiac was released on June 29, 2004, amidst both her weakest promotional blitz ever and the well-publicized termination of her short-lived business relationship with entertainment manager Benny Medina.
Afrodisiac featured tracks primarily produced by producer Timbaland, in place of Jerkins or Smith, and Brandy worked with the producer to create a new sound.
The title track "Afrodisiac", released overseas as a single, was a Top 20 hit in the United Kingdom.

 Brandy - Afrodisiac - Music Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
She's gone from woman-child to woman and her latest effort "Afrodisiac" is all about the departure from childhood to womanhood.
The title track "Afrodisiac" is average at best, but "Sadiddy" is the one and only track that seems misplaced on this album.
I love "Afrodisiac" but I'm not yet sure that it's Brandy's best album, but the fact that I have doubts means that it probably is her best work to date.

 Brandy: Afrodisiac (2004): Reviews
Afrodisiac is Brandy's fourth consecutive durable showing, fluffed out with a few innocuous — if still very listenable — filler moments, but it is stocked with a number of spectacular -- and emotionally resonant -- singles that wind up making for her most accomplished set yet.
"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.
"Afrodisiac" should have been a U.S. single Brandy had the oppurtunity to be the female counterpart to Usher, and it all went so wrong.

 Afrodisiac - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Afrodisiac is the fourth album by American singer Brandy, released in the United States on June 29, 2004 (see 2004 in music) on Atlantic Records.
When "Talk About Our Love" became Afrodisiac's lead single instead of its title track, the unreleased Black Pepper, as stated in Vibe Magazine(for which a music video was already shot), Timbaland and Brandy herself protested the decision in several magazine interviews.
The second single, Timbaland's "Who Is She 2 U", peaked at #78, and although the title track became a Top 20 hit in the United Kingdom, promotion for the Afrodisiac album ended not long after the failure of "Who Is She 2 U".

Afrodisiac is sensuous, soulful, even a little gritty, an album that showcases Brandy's passionate voice and announces in no uncertain terms that she's all grown up and knows what she wants.
Although she only co-wrote one of the album's fifteen tracks; the eye-opening "Finally," it is certain that most of the material on this album was written with the singer specifically in mind.
Even though a great deal of the subject matter is deep and reflects the burdens of the singer's life from the past few years, this does not prevent "Afrodisiac" from being stuffed with potential hit singles.

Personal turmoil has always proved to be a creative elixir for musicians, so it's not surprising that Brandy Norwood would dip into that well for inspiration on her fourth album, AFRODISIAC.
In addition to her transformation from a teenage pop/TV star to an international music sensation, the 25-year-old vocalist followed motherhood with a divorce and also stepped away from longtime production partner Rodney Jerkins.

 Brandy: Afrodisiac » Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
Brandy has left Darkchild behind and is working alongside producer Timbaland; as a result, this has angered some fans who assume he may be looking to fill the void left by Aaliyah.
Fanatical controversy aside, Afrodisiac has the Timbaland stamp on its sound: the kind of beats you feel that you’ve heard a thousand times before but are still pretty damn good.
Other noteworthy tracks include the sassy “Afrodisiac” (her follow-up single) and the positive “Finally.” Overall, there are a handful of catchy tracks and some disappointing songs; however, for someone like myself who isn’t a super-fan of RandB, I did enjoy Afrodisiac.

 //ROCKA*REVIEWS//: Brandy: Afrodisiac
Even though her voice is mediocre, her acting is quite questionable, and her looks are oddly unconventional - she has managed to hold our attention for the past decade and remain relevant.
Afrodisiac isn’t the type of album that grabs you by the neck and turns your head, like most of Brandy’s music it’s grows on you, and unexpectedly it ends up in your play deck.
She doesn’t hit you with obnoxious beats or acrobatic vocals instead Afrodisiac creates moods and if you’re lucky, even a moment.

Guess that time she spent with the G-Unit while filming the "Stunt 101" video rubbed off on her.
Afrodisiac isn't an intimate, gloves-off, soul-baring opus, but at least Brandy gives us enough insight to see that she's not frail, and that you can't act high-post around her.
And if you have wandering eyes, she might flen one of them.

After "Full Moon" I was certain Brandy had created her own "Thriller" however, back then I never knew she was about to release "Afrodisiac".
The reason why "Afrodisiac" is Brandy's best album is because it's so much more than "I Wanna Be Down" as much of classic as it is, "Afrodisiac" features the title killer track which is immensley intense the more listens you take.
In a nutshell "Afrodisiac" is a gem that Atlantic will surely bad-handle and not use to their best adantage to enhance Brandy's talent and the record company's credability of posessing such an artist...

The tunes on "Afrodisiac" are the older ones on here, they date back to just before 1971 when both of these albums were apparently recorded.
The instrumentation is tight, and the sub-tempos, which are noticable in most of the songs, create a very "busy" sound without being washed out or hyper.
Now Open and Close appears together with the enormously funky album Afrodisiac (I don't remember what it formerly appeared with), and the pairing combines to make what is probably my favorite Fela disc.
