Brandy - Kanye West Rapping? - Video

Who knew Kanye West could carry a tune without auto-tune? I sure didn’t, that’s for sure. The vocalist took the stage at Abby Road with Brandy and belted out the lyrics to “Bring Me Down”.

It’s a really good performance and I like how Brandy injected the song with her talent, as well.

I miss Brandy’s singing, I wonder when she’s going to drop another album. You would think she needs the cash since settling with the victims of that car accident she was involved in.
