In June 1998, Norwood released her second album Never Say Never. The album spawned three singles–" What About Us?", " Full Moon" and " He Is". Full Moon was nominated for several awards, including the Grammy Award for Best Contemporary R&B Album.


It debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200 and atop the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, selling 156,000 copies in its first week, and has been certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), selling over one million copies in the United States. The album was initially met with mixed reviews from critics, but later earned recognition from musicians, singers, and producers, primarily for Brandy's vocal work. Musically, Full Moon drew inspiration from UK garage, electro, dance, glitch, and funktronica, while blending soul and R&B elements into adult contemporary ballads. Her prior relationship and then-private relationship with Darkchild in-house producer Big Bert inspired the lyrics and song concepts. Jerkins credited Michael Jackson, Brandy's voice, and his experiences at European nightclubs for influencing the sound of the album. As with Never Say Never, Brandy collaborated with producer Rodney Jerkins and his Darkchild production and songwriting team on the majority of the album's composition, while Mike City, Warryn Campbell, and Keith Crouch contributed additional production.īrandy credited Whitney Houston, Kim Burrell and Enya for inspiring her to push the limits of her voice and vocal arrangements. The album was recorded primarily during the summer and fall of 2001 at the Hit Factory Criteria in Miami, amid a three-year musical hiatus following the success of her multi-platinum previous studio album Never Say Never (1998) and the finale of her highly successful television sitcom Moesha in May 2001. It was released on Februby Atlantic Records. Full Moon is the third studio album by American singer Brandy. and I catch myself wanting so much more, tonight - come closerīridge - so if you're leaving me now, baby I don't know how. and it's breaking my heart cause I know, that tomorrow you'll be miles away. so let's make the most of these moments together we'll never forget.
