Brandy hit the studio with Timbaland earlier this month to record some new material for her upcoming LP Human. The two last worked together on 2004’s Afrodisiac. While critically acclaimed, the album was a commercial disappointment and ended with the singer parting ways with Atlantic Records.

The 29-year-old will shoot a video for her second single “Long Distance” later this week in Los Angeles with director Ray Kay, who has photographed several Rap-Up covers including the recent “Brave New Girls” issue with Keri Hilson, Solange, and Teyana Taylor.

Brandy’s fifth studio album Human will be released on December 9th.
