Brandy - What About Us

About "What About Us"

"What About Us?" is a song by American singer Brandy from her third studio album, Full Moon (2002). It was written by LaShawn Daniels, Rodney Jerkins, Kenisha Pratt, Nora Payne and Norwood, featuring main production by Jerkins. An offbeat, aggressive high-tech track, the song's development was motivated by the fact that the singer wanted something different–an aggressive, sexier and edgier sound with a message which would empower women while also reflecting her own growth and maturity.

"What About Us?" was released as the lead single from Full Moon on January 1, 2002, by Atlantic Records. A commercial success, it peaked at number seven on the US Billboard Hot 100, also reaching the top ten in Australia, Denmark, New Zealand, Norway, and the United Kingdom. Steve "Silk" Hurley's remix of the song received a nomination for Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical at the 45th Annual Grammy Awards (2003).

The accompanying music video for "What About Us?" was directed by Dave Meyers and was filmed in Culver City, California in December 2001. It premiered via MTV on January 10, 2002. Primarily shot in front of a greenscreen, the highly-animated, futuristic video introduced a sexier image of the former teen singer, portraying her as a male-ruling character in an alternate universe. It was nominated for the Viewer's Choice Award at the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards.
