Brandy & Monica - The Boy Is Mine (REACTION) 💞

[@hughw2377]

Probably one of the most iconic R&B songs in history

[@willE84]

Broke some Billboard chart records didn't it? Like for how many weeks it spent at number one?

[@hughw2377]

@@willE84 no that record was held by Mariah Carey and boys 2 men for one sweet day for 16 weeks which now old town road holds unfortunately...

[@willE84]

@@hughw2377 Oh. I thought this song held it temporarily.

[@hughw2377]

@@willE84 boy is mine spent 13 weeks at number 1, regardless this song will go down in rnb history books

[@renettas5027]

If you say so that's a real stretch in my opinion.. The song is good but the best..lol ok

[@Emarcenat]

I remember when this song came out when I was a kid. I used to pretend to be Brandy and my cousin was Monica. 😂 This song was huge back then.

[@instasingingvids3529]

Miss IntrovertGirl omg that’s hilarious! Who got the man in your story lol 😂

[@Amberhx1]

I'm pathetic and did both parts back to myself lmao

[@bvg4kgaming178]

Used to have some YUGE arguments at school about who was best......Brandy or Monica.....I’ve a Ways been in Monica’s camp. Always preferred her tone.

[@marklouis1890]

I'm definitely Brandy

[@Blackskye211]

Haha me & my sister used to do the same.

[@angelinajolie2781]

I believe Brandy said that the inspiration for the song came from her love of the Jerry Springer show, and how women are always fighting over a man on that show. 😂

[@florenciohernandezjr.2556]

People forget how huge this song was back then.. this song spent 13 weeks at #1. It was everywhere.

[@nathanmedina2809]

Monica has #1 songs on the r&b charts in the 1990s 2000s and 2010s. Monica was also 17 years old in this video

[@TheAO84]

Your first Monica song should be “So Gone”. That track STILL KNOCKS to this day. (Missy Elliot produced Btw)

[@mboogie777]

yesss

[@silversagi]

no lie!

[@TMKJG24]

Already up

[@Soundsoffeeling]

Brandy “Never say never”album ..THANK ME LATER 👏🏾

[@luv2stack]

preach!

[@josevargasosuna357]

In fact is the perfect combination between R&B, funky and soul.

[@zanesutherland406]

This song randomly plays in my head every week I swear, like for years 😂. Iconic song.

[@mr.checkyourself4672]

This song was everywhere upon release this is one of the longest running songs in history.

[@ashleylowery176]

This was me and my big sis song. When we were younger. I’m 29 so this straight nostalgia for me. It’s so funny bc I would always be Brandy and she would be Monica. We would be showing so many emotions every time we sang it word for word lol. Ugh I miss those day😭❤️

[@AxEWorlD]

Legendary collaboration. 13 weeks straight at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 list in the Summer of 1998. Brandy and Monica collaborated again in 2012 on a track called "It All Belongs to Me". Monica has had some dope tracks over the years: "Before You Walk Out Of My Life", "Why I Love You Much", "The First Night", "U Should've Known Better", "So Gone", "A Dozen Roses", "Sideline Ho", "Everything to Me" just to name a few. On a side note, Brandy kinda did get the boy because the actor Mekehi Phifer co-starred with Brandy in the horror sequel film, "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer" where they played lovers lol!

[@senaith8909]

Aaliyah , Brandy vs. Monica. This three R&B girls are still killing it 😁

[@shaggyajao5685]

Yeah my favorite was aaliyah and monica!

[@Angelpancake22]

Your reactions are addicting lol it’s beautiful to see the younger generation appreciate my fav music

[@cookypuss8603]

Monica - For You I Will Brandy - Have You Ever

[@Mercury6_]

Don’t worry about the pauses, you always have great insight so the pauses are appropriate

[@HoneyBee1980]

Memories 😍 so glad I’m a 90’s baby I love this song

[@blackkatt777]

The hit that blew Monica up and put her on the map was her hit debut song"Just one of them days". That's a great one.

[@seanduncan3624]

The back and forth between them is highlighting that they are arguing. Both are well matched. Brandy and Monica were pitted against each other in the press because they were both up and coming rnb female artists, even though they had no beef. So they got together and capitalized on that. And it paid off! They got back together in 2012 to record It All Belongs to Me

[@alimagat1354]

Told yah!!! This song is effin 🔥. Glad you liked it, Jack. And thanks for the shoutout ♥. Btw Monica's "Angel Of Mine" is also a must watch..

[@highland_persuasion]

This was the biggest song of 1998. 13 weeks at #1.

[@xcviii3392]

You should react to So Gone by Monica. You might recognize the beat because everybody was doing freestyles over that instrumental 😂

[@BrookePenelopeDavis101]

Brandy and Monica hated each other back then. They didn't get along lol. It was so bad that Monica punched Brandy in the face backstage minutes before They perfprmed this song at the VMAs

[@markmenez4097]

Asaunte Brazier she sure did , she couldn’t stand brandy acting stuck up .

[@mathisbailey794]

Facts

[@GodivaK]

And brandy went back at her before they were pulled apart... so tell the whole story

[@ygmbaruku]

Though Brandy killed the performance

[@pdgf]

Any video link proof?! Lol

[@waterbearer4627]

Contender for all time best RnB song of the 90s. The song is so intricate and has classical elements that give it a timeless sound. Great vocals and harmonies fused with back and forth narrative lyrical content. The song is a masterpiece!!!

[@kheldarm2197]

Allure - "All Cried Out". I think you will like this. You really like production and melodies. Sometimes I feel in this song the singer actually melts into the instrumental. It's not someone singing over a Melody but creating it and bending it to their will.

[@johnconnor210]

This song was huge it was number 1 on the charts for weeks on end.

[@vgreen1106]

R&B Legends!!!! Must bow down!!!!

[@martajajackson1836]

Didn't have to be lyrical, spiritual, miracle...it's telling a story." SAY THAT 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@jeromejackson6111]

More info, The boy is mine won Best R&B single by a duo at the grammys in 1999 & was nominated for record of the year. it was also the Ist #1 for both Brandy & Monica. It stayed # 1 on the pop charts for I believe, 13 weeks .Longer on the European charts. Props ladies!!!

[@stevefaglie6252]

They were 17 and 18 and had never meet when this was recorded......amazing

[@MiguelClark_GooglePlus]

This was/is one of the biggest songs across all genres in the 1990s. It was number one on the main charts for 2 whole months straight. If you haven't reacted to their song It All Belongs To Me, go ahead and react to that music video.

[@lorenzosorrell1566]

This song was a cover song from Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney called the girl is mind. Brandy and Monica did a female version of the song called The boy is mind.

[@matthewrugel9241]

Loveeee brandy

[@JadenOmega]

This song is 🔥 also am I the only one who feels like I'm out in the ocean whenever I hear that piano piece in the beginning? I had that feeling when I heard this song as a kid and I still have that feeling as an adult. Whenever I hear that beginning piano, I feel like I'm out in the ocean. It feels so soothing.

[@beatrixbrown9253]

React to Monica don’t take it personal it’s one of her really good songs

[@jaygibbs_]

This song is still fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 The production is so effortless, gosh!

[@champagneslurpee]

Keep up the great job, Jack! Loved this one from you! Monica is a great vocalist especially on Angel of Mine and Street Symphony.

[@mikefisher4834]

They did this song together because the media kept trying to say they hated each other💯 Anyone who grew up in the 90s instantly recognizes this beat when they hear it It’s one of those songs that represents the 90s💯🎤🔊🎶💙🔥

[@whynot2644]

I forget how long ago this was. Its great that you are showing your generation great music thats getting lost. This is just classic, smooth, bad ass sounds.

[@Honeycomblife]

This was the biggest song of 1998. Big hit its the song that spent the most weeks at number 1 that year..I reccomend Brandys Angel in disguise, Full moon , sitting up in my room & Shattered heart

[@joseangeldelvalle5553]

Great! Iconic both!

[@0ldsoul]

Some request to react to! Brandy: Have You Ever?, Broken-hearted (LP version), Best Friend, Full Moon, What About Us? Monica: Angel of Mine, Before You Walk Out My Life, Why I Love You So Much, So Gone

[@kandystar5229]

Monica is one of my favorite singers she got HITS

[@DarionCortez]

You should react to Missy Elliott "Get Your Freak On" one of the coolest videos ever made and Michael & Janet Jackson "Scream" One of the most expensive videos ever made.

[@Mrs.blt84]

Darion Cortez I still quote parts of Get your freak on all the time!!!!!

[@deedrestatz8174]

Both awesome suggestions!

[@cchild12789]

Definitely Scream

[@nigelsemple1696]

If you like the back and forth on this song, you'll definitely like 'Same Script, Different Cast' by Whitney Houston and Deborah Cox

[@ShadMadRad]

The chills I got when you didn't know if Monica had more music... she's a legend!!

[@ForJay112]

Bro - you will absolutely LOVE the “So Gone” by Monica TRUST ME

[@adrimichelle4400]

Monica- "Angel of Mine" is a classic! That and her older song "For You I Will"

[@juliusseizer6406]

Bruh, after the video when you said ”Are they gonna put him in his place or is it gonna go a different route, if you know what I'm saying?” 😂😂 I was like, dis nigga did not just say that shit lol. You had me rolling bro! Great reaction like always! 🤣👏👏

[@juliusseizer6406]

Jack Reacts Lol I don't blame you... They're both fine af and they can sing so it’s a win/win. I wouldn’t be surprised if Mekhi Phifer tried to get it poppin’ with at least one of them in real life 😂😂

[@xicano323joey]

MONICA- angel of mine, the first night, so gone, don’t take it personal, before you walk out my life, why I love you so much Brandy & Monica-It All Belongs 2 Me

[@1984msmocha]

they both got their record deals really young, you should check out the songs and videos from their debut albums...also check out tender kisses by Tracy Spencer and also go back to the 80s and check out Stacey Lattisaw

[@dansby37]

One of my favorite songs by Monica is Angel of Mine, a great song by her, should react to that one

[@truthteller816]

Love ❤️ this video! Love ❤️ this song! Love ❤️ these girls! Both Brandy & Monica are beautiful 😍 & they both looked stunning 😍 in this video! 10 out of 10 🙌🏾

[@ThePhillyspade]

Fun fact: it was well known these two artist was huge rivals back in the day then this collaboration caught everyone of guard...song is a classic

[@larrye0327]

Please react to Keyshia Cole!😭 1. I should’ve cheated...or 2. Love...or 3. I remember!

[@smileyteapot6618]

And "Emotional", honestly Keyshia Cole has so many great songs!

[@devfurtado7570]

[@lucidepooter6347]

one of my favorite song ❤❤❤

[@hushlilbaby]

Monica - Angel of mine .....also one of my faves

[@DesignzRUs]

[@Kim-ss5bb]

This was the first song I bought on cd, These 2 together is gold shame they didn't get on lol

[@chanellopezzzz]

[@jaydubbs8277]

REACT TO BRANDY "HAVE YOU EVER". one of the best r&b ballads of all time.

[@jessdavies7065]

Theres actually a remix of this song that I love and it's a banger in the UK always played at parties!! Xx

[@charlesalwyn3486]

Monica “Angel of Mine” …great 90s song

[@Dejnyt]

0mg YASS

[@mjwatson6205]

Angel of Mine and she was the first to record For You I Will before Christina Aguliera covered it.

[@cherisseshaw]

Chemistry lol they got into a real fist fight

[@Selflovematters4life]

Their musical chemistry was undeniable. Their immaturity and outside influence at that time put them "against" each other..

[@everydaymarvin2490]

I love your reactions man. You always do a good job. Keep it up!

[@sincerelyjaijharnaerose757]

They have another song together years later called “All belongs to me”

[@ygmbaruku]

Monica 1) Angel Of Mine 2) For You I Will 3) Why I Love You So Much Brandy and Monica - Belong To Me

[@aaliyahthomas1456]

Angel of mine Committment Why i love you so much I got love all over me So gone Knock knock/get over it Everything to me Before you walk out of my life You shoulda known better Monica is a really great artist

[@jeromejackson6111]

One more thing on the info, speaking of instumentals. The flipside of the cd is all instrumental. I wore both sides out! Still have it one of my favs

[@soohyun9422]

React to Monica's "So Gone" and then "Knock Knock" They're both connected to each other with the story line.

[@marvelprofessor6324]

Mobb Deep used this chorus in the song called It's Mine with Nas.

[@kidalee_]

Monica -For you I will (Will blow you away)

[@cynthiap1927]

Best Friend- great bass line

[@akuapiatas]

if you listen to 'the girl is mine' MJ and Paul that's where they got the inspiration for this song

[@smullac71]

Ja, Shirley Murdock, As We Lay, mid 80's. 💣

[@Rauro1]

If you want to check out more of Monica For You I Will is a good song to start

[@jaydawg7932]

Monicas, before you walk out my life or first night is my best son she done. Brandy's classic album is never say never. So everything from that is good. But I want to know what you think about "put it down" from brandy. And btw, I'm a big fan of bone thugs and you seem to hit itjust right on dj uneek. But On that video The Boy Is Mine from Brandy and Monica, The guy did go to Brandi house. It was just that Monica was there and that's when she opened the door and saw him there

[@jsrichardson1]

Brandy and Monica had another song together years later after they made up in real life called It Belongs to Me. You should react to that next. The song wasn't as popular but its still a bop

[@marklouis1890]

Brandy and Mikah Mikah Phifer also starred in I know what you did last summer together that same year

[@pure1769]

It's possible someone has already mentioned this in the comment section, but they do have another song together; Monica &Brandy, "It All Belongs To Me". They were much older, much more mature (both as women and as vocalists) and had become super cordial with one another ( to the point of having done an entire press tour together). Please react to "It All Belongs To Me" by Monica & Brandy.

[@mathisbailey794]

Even though this was a hot hot hot song ...I believe Aaliyah knocked it off #1 with her song "Are You That Somebody. "....98 was an awesome year for young R&B divas.

[@rebeccaedythyaya7684]

😍😍😍💖💖💖Empiezo a quererte, gracias hombre.

[@senaith8909]

Best selling song of 1998 😁 14 Weeks at nr. 1 😆

[@deandrake2723]

The VMA performance revealed that the guy has a twin.

[@aaliyahthomas1456]

You also need to do Toni Braxton. Un-Break my heart Yesterday ft. Trey Songz Wasn't man enough for me Spanish guitar Seven whole days As long as I live Just be a man about it. Toni is great artist. If you think Mariah Carey can hit them low notes really well, you definitely need to listen to Toni lol 😉

[@loganwolverine6770]

Iconic ! When this song came out was my obsession jaja I'm from México and I used to watch MTV all day jajaja Please react to Genie in a bottle by Christina Aguilera and can't get you out My head by Kylie Minogue.

Salt n peppa- Shoop TLC-creep Fat Boys-Stick em Krayzie Bone- Heated Heavy, Dummy Man

[@Jtpoptheory]

My favorite song

[@jayar7436]

They have only sung this song live once. The media was pitting them against each other, and it eventually got to them. There were adults influencing two 17 year old girls to hate each other. At the MTV Awards where they performed live, they got into a physical altercation before their part. And when they were done, it seems that Brandy puts Monica in a headlock as they are walking off stage. LoL But now they are actually friends. Also, the only Grammy either of them has ever won was for this song.

[@christianaayodele]

Brandy angel in disguise

[@mijol8546]

If you want to hear Monica sing a melody, check out Street Symphony. Love this reaction and your channel!

[@BAMOORE94]

They have another song called it all belongs to me.. it’s the boy is mine part 2 but they’re breaking up with him and it’s them with adult voices.. brandys voice is so different now from the 90s I think you’d like it
