The Best of Brandy

The Best of Brandy is the first compilation album by American recording artist Brandy Norwood. Completing her contract with Atlantic Records after eleven years with the company, it was released in March and April 2005 on most international music markets.

The album comprises nearly all of her singles released between the years of 1994 and 2004, compiling her first four studio albums Brandy (1994), Never Say Never (1998), Full Moon (2002) and Afrodisiac (2004), as well as songs she contributed to film soundtracks such as Waiting to Exhale (1995) and Set It Off (1996). While featuring no original material, the greatest hits disc contains rare tracks such as a 1995 cover of Michael Jackson's "Rock with You," her international single "Another Day in Paradise" and the single remix of "U Don't Know Me (Like U Used To)" featuring female rappers Da Brat and Shaunta.

The Best of Brandy was appreciated by contemporary critics who noted the creativity of Norwood's back-catalogue. It debuted at number 27 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, selling about 26,000 units in its opening week, and became a top thirty success in Australia and the United Kingdom.
