Episode 224: Brandy Is the Vocal Bible (featuring Music Executive Mike Hamilton)

The Oprah Rose Show

Tune in this week with TT, GG & DD as we’re joined by Music executive, Twitter Rebel, Howard Alum and R&B enthusiat, Mike Hamilton Jr. (@MikeHamiltonJr). Of course we had to talk about Mike’s twitter and his viral tweet about Brandy being the vocal bible and how we need to have a discussion on how she inspired male R&B. Mike goes on to say “Brandy is the most influential R&B singer on other vocalists in the last 30 years.” Mike goes on to explain that you hear both men and women citing Brandy as an influence rather than her contemporaries.

GG was happy to put a face to the Twitter persona and we dive into a discussion about do you have to separate your online personality from your job? TT says at the end of the day she can only be her. DD reminds us that if you choose to work in an industry, you can have love for the industry itself and remembering that.

Listen to 4 music lovers geek out about background vocals, production credits, Pharrell being the most known voice in music, the earlier seasons of American Idol, first concerts and more.
