I'm excited to review this article as I loveeee Brandy and this album :). At a first glance this appears well written. versacespaceleave a message! 21:35, 15 April 2021 (UTC)


### Infobox and lead
"eOne Music" → "eOne" (keep the wikilink)
 Fixed
remove "Upon its release" (in the second paragraph). it's redundant since this album has no lasting legacy (yet) and therefore there would be no other time for this album to receive these reviews.
 Fixed
"generally favorable reviews" → "generally positive reviews" to keep the article consistent as this is how you phrased it in the critical reception section. Vice versa will work too.
 Fixed
if there are dates available for the time periods when Brandy recorded B7, they should be added to the recording section of the infobox.
 Fixed none available unfortunately
The lead says the album is by Brandy Norwood but the infobox uses her mononym. I suggest using the Brandy mononym since that's the name she released the album under and it matches the reference titles but there should be one that's consistent with the article.

### Background and concept
in the quote box, "Norwood during an interview with HuffPost" → "Norwood during an interview with the HuffPost"
 Fixed
back to the prose, "HuffPost'" → "HuffPost 's"
 Fixed
p.s. : without the space between the apostrophe
 Fixed
all uses of "Norwood" (Brandy's last name) should ideally be omitted and replaced with "Brandy". this is only required if you changed Brandy Norwood to simply "Brandy" in the lead
 Fixed
"Finely asked Norwood" → "When asked" since the word finely is ambiguous with the reporter's last name
 Fixed
"In an interview with Rolling Stone" → "In an interview with the Rolling Stone"
 Not fixed, the name of the publication is Rolling Stone. It has never been referred to as The Rolling Stone unlike newspapers like Daily Star (the Daily Star) or Daily Record (the Daily Record)
"On why" → "When asked why" or something similar to "when asked" since that phrase was used above

### Music and lyrics / songs
Unless Kim Krysiuk contributed to 7.5 songs, I don't think she contributed to half of the album's songs. Replace this with whatever number of songs she's credited in.
 Fixed
Move LaShawn Daniels into a separate paragraph from the others
 Fixed
In the last sentence of the "songs" sub-section, remove "acting as". The lyric is not acting as a reference, it is a reference.
 Fixed
same deal as all the last sections with "Norwood" instead of "Brandy"

### Artwork
Good, continue to remove "Norwood" if needed
 Comment., now addressed across the article ≫ Lil-Unique1 -{ Talk }- 19:23, 18 April 2021 (UTC)


### Promotion and singles
Establish which song Brandy and TDS played at the BBMAs, since it's technically possible for them to have played a song that isn't their collab
 Fixed
"Norwood" change if necessary per last sections
 Fixed


### Critical reception / year-end lists
replace "Norwood" if needed
 Fixed
The statement that the Pitchfork review is mixed is bordering original research since it's not actually stated anywhere that the review indicates mixed reception. If anything above a 6 should be considered positive
 Fixed
Remove the MEA Worldwide review as the publication is not notable.
 Fixed
The year-end lists table should be removed and the whole thing should be in prose
 Not fixed, other GAs have passed with year-end lists in tables. Much like charts, when there are a handful it looks and reads better when they're in a table. ≫ Lil-Unique1 -{ Talk }- 21:47, 23 April 2021 (UTC)


### Commercial performance
For the US Billboard 200, establish the amount of weeks B7 charted (2), and also establish where the album fell to on its second week. You will need to find citations for these
 Not fixed per WP:CHARTTRAJ ≫ Lil-Unique1 -{ Talk }-


### Track listing / notes
"denotes additional production by" → "denotes additional production"
 Fixed
"Track 14 'Love Again'" → "'Love Again'"
 Fixed


### Credits and personnel / recording locations / personnel
Good


### Charts / year-end charts
Good


### Release history
is the label called Brand Nu or Brand Nu, Inc? Make this consistent throughout the above sections.


### References
References 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 18, 20, 21, 22, 24, 28, 62, 63: Italicize the title of the source
^ and if you're attributing the sources for these references in the article you're gonna have to italicize the title of the sources there too
Reference 19: "Essence.com" → "Essence"
Reference 23: change the title of the reference since the album is released

### Nominator comments
It's pretty clear, in my opinion, that "No Tomorrow" wasn't a single off the album and shouldn't even be listed as one. Indeed, a remix of the song was issued as a single to promote it, however neither B7 nor any other editions of the album feature that remix. Although it was included on the album, the solo version was never made available as a single. It never had a music video or a radio release. The notion is further supported by the fact that the release date listed for the song itself under the "Singles" section of the album infobox is clearly the same as the one for the remix. Yes, the remix was used to promote the album era but it doesn't make it or the original version of the song a single at all. Indigault (talk) 21:45, 7 August 2025 (UTC)
