There is a possibility that Brandy and Ray J could have an older brother by the name of Danyelle “C-Dove” Brown (yes, C-Dove is his rapper name, what a coincidence!). After soliciting the family for a DNA test, the father of Brandy and Ray J was a no-show, so Ray J and Brandy decided to submit to the paternity test to prove whether or not he is a kin to them.
Willie Ray Norwood Sr is their father, but no word has come from him about these claims. Danyelle took the test of May 22nd in Atlanta, Georgia, when Willie didn’t show up. “I don’t know if you really know but we planned for Mr. Norwood, which is my father, to come down and take DNA the test,” Brown told the test administrator. “I’m here trying to do the righteous thing. I wanna show a lot of people that I came down. I took care of my business. Apparently, no show for him. If he cared about the situation he would be here.”
The aspiring rapper, Danyelle, documented the process on a web show called Unfinished Family Business. As you can see, this is somewhat of a parody for Brandy and Ray J’s VH1 reality celebrity show, A Family Business.
Danyelle has yet to receive any word back from his estranged family, but he has spoken with Ray J before. Willie and Danyelle’s mother are both from Greenwood, Mississippi, but Danyelle was born in Chicago. He is 35 years old; recently he aired his grievances about wanting closure with his alleged family.
