Brandy's touching tribute garnered a lot of reaction from her fans and loved ones who quickly flooded the post's comment section to leave lovely messages and their good wishes.

Sonja, who doubles as her daughter's manager, can be credited for encouraging Brandy to appear in the popular 90s sitcom "Moesha." While speaking about this, the singer said:

"She gave me a script that Ralph Farquhar and the other creators of Moesha gave to her..."And I was like, Mom, I'm not an actress."

Although Brandy had poor acting skills at the very beginning of the show's production, the then 16-year-old was able to improve her skills with the help of veteran actress Kim fields.

Despite having six successful seasons, "Moesha" was suddenly canceled after Brandy walked away from the show while listing exhaustion, a need to focus on her music career and personal life as her reasons.

Norwood went on to have a successful career in music, and in 2002, she welcomed her daughter, Syria, with her then-partner, Robert "Big Bert" Smith.

Being the daughter of a multiple award-winning singer does come with a high level of musical influence. Just like Brandy, Syria Smith is a talented singer, and there's no doubt that she will make waves just like her mother.
