Was Full Moon singer Brandy's comeback album or the beginning of her new image?

[Hawkee]

When singer Brandy announced the release of her new at the time album Full Moon it seemed to be not only her comeback album but the start of a new image for Brandy and I want to know if it was true? I also cannot figure out how the song What About Us became her first single from the album because when you listen to it you can see that the song is weird and has weird sound effects that drown out Brandy's voice. Was Brandy trying out a new sound for her albums or she hoped that this album would be the pinnacle of her career? Another thing she did was cover PM Dawn's I'd Die Without You as a duet with her brother Ray J. and it would've been better as a solo song. I remember hearing about this album when it debuted in 2002 and when it was released I bought Full Moon and liked it as I have been collecting Brandy's albums since she came out in 1994. If Full Moon would've been more successful Brandy could've stayed with Atlantic Records longer and had more singles from it
