About
Afrodisiac is the fourth studio album by American recording artist Brandy Norwood, released by Atlantic Records on June 28, 2004. Recorded after a short-living hiatus during when the singer gave birth to her daughter Sy'rai and also ended her relationship with the album's initial producer Robert "Big Bert" Smith, it marked a departure from her previous work with Rodney Jerkins and his Darkchild camp, who gained no credit on the record due to a disagreement on Norwood's decision to work with Timbaland and his protégé, Walter Millsap III, on the majority of the production of the album. The album debuted at number three on the US Billboard 200 but had a short run on the charts, resulting into mediocre domestic sales of 416,000 copies and a gold certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Outside the States, Afrodisiac scored minor success, missing the top thirty on the majority of the charts it appeared on.

The critical response to Afrodisiac was generally positive, garnering Brandy her strongest reception yet, with Allmusic comparing it to "Janet Jackson at her best." The following year, it received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Contemporary R&B Album but lost to Usher's Confessions album. While lead single "Talk About Our Love" reached the top ten in the United Kingdom, later singles failed to score successfully on the popular music charts. In mid-2005, after eleven years with the company Brandy asked for and received a release from Atlantic Records, making Afrodisiac her final studio album on the label.
