R&B newcomer Elle Varner brought her swag and talent to New York City to celebrate the release of her debut album Perfectly Imperfect which hit stores this past Tuesday. During her performance, she paid tribute to some of her favorite R&B artists. Varner showed love to Brandy by covering her debut hit single “I Wanna Be Down.”

When people hear “I Wanna Be Down,” they want it to sound exactly the way Brandy did when she first recorded it. The problem with that is Brandy and Elle have two very distinct yet opposing voices. Varner gave it her best shot and the crowd seemed to be enjoying it.
