AN AUDIBLE MOST ANTICIPATED LISTEN, Read by the Author Herself
*AUDIOBOOK READ BY BRANDY!*
The iconic, multiplatinum, Grammy Award®–winning performer Brandy brings us a raw, intimate portrait of her life, charting her journey from Mississippi churches to Hollywood spotlights
From the moment she first sang at church in McComb, Mississippi, Brandy knew her voice was special. At fourteen she landed her first record deal. At fifteen her first album went platinum. At sixteen she was starring in the hit sitcom Moesha and became the first Black actress to play Cinderella on screen alongside fairy godmother, Whitney Houston.
Yet as the accolades piled up, so too did the pressure to maintain a flawless image. To onlookers, she had crafted the blueprint for the teenage “it” girl. But behind closed doors “The Vocal Bible” as she was known, was struggling.
In this piercing, revelatory memoir, Brandy shares: The humble roots of her decades-spanning career; Her early struggles with bullies and insecurities as a high schooler; the inside stories behind her most iconic songs and albums; her star-studded connections with Whitney Houston and Diana Ross; the affirmation of friends and family, including her brother Ray J, that helped her through challenging times; her inspirational journey to reclaim her sense of self, and her autonomy as a woman in Hollywood and in music… and so much more. Phases is a fearless and remarkable story of hope, resilience and the strength it takes to make peace with the past.
