There is no way you guys haven’t heard this song before! It was number one for weeks.

[@opticnerves]

Exactly! It was #1 for almost 4 months!

[@Roma-SRyan]

They didnt know about Moesha so I guess it didnt reach their parts

[@antonyware]

@@Roma-SRyan Yeah I guess you’re right 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@cptbusstop92]

At least the Glee version 😂

[@yolandaperry86]

This song was HUGE! It was #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for months! And they won a Grammy for it!

Yep, 13 weeks.

The Holy Trinity: Aaliyah, Brandy & Monica. These Beautiful Women Dominated the 90’s and Early 00’; they were giving us hit after hit🥰

[@DarrellMarch90]

Blasphemy

[@SteadyNUnremitting]

They only dominated the late 90s. Their reign ended with the new 2000s

[@DarrellMarch90]

Mariah and Janet dominated the 90’s.

[@notyouraveragebear9326]

@@SteadyNUnremittingyou’re out of your mind!! Aaliyah had one more amazing era unfortunately the same year she passed away in 2001. Which made her videos and music from that album play even more on radio and tv. Brandy had a similar year but more mainstream with her tv show confusing until 2001, her Barbie and make up brand still selling til 2002, and her 2001 Full moon album is known as her best work by her peers, the fans and industry alike. Monica not so mainstream but her fans and her ATL roots loved her 2002-2003 album. So yes, they ran the mid 90s all the way until the early 2000s. Ashanti, Beyonce, and JLo came in and cleaned house during the 2000s aswell but the 90s teen trinity were still there.

[@ClassicalGemini]

@@SteadyNUnremitting ‘94 and up…what’s ur point? When speaking about 90s R&B/Pop, yes they ladies dominated it🤷🏽‍♂️

[@alemarcondess]

In my opinion. Jlo's, "Love don't cost a thing", sounds a bit like "The boy is mine". Actually "The boy is mine" was so successful at that time that there were a few songs that were inspired by it. A big hug from Brazil!

[@ambersteward2373]

That's probably the song they heard on the radio with they moms on Saturday afternoons

[@unconventionalmind2247]

The male lead is actor Mekhi Phifer

The dude was in every late 90s - early 00s teen movie and ‘soft’ black culture movies. He was actually in I Still Know What You Did Last Summer Movie in 1998 with Brandy, which is probably why he’s featured in her music video here.

[@HerMajesteee..KweeenHunni]

Like A Boy deserves to be here!!!

[@DeeVee7162]

Absolutely wild yall haven’t heard or at least heard of this song. It’s one of the biggest hits of the 90s and was released in 98. Monica and Brandy were both big teen stars at the time and the press pitted them against each other (a feud the press would recreate a few years later with Britney and Christina) and Brandy and Monica turned it into a mega hit song. Though there was some backstage tension with them after the song was released.

[@mzzthang3912]

To be fair the media wasn't wrong about their fued lol there was a rumour for years that Monica punched Brandy before their VMAs performance and music producer Dallas Austin confirmed it recently that's why the Verzuz battle was such a huge thing for the culture cause those girls did not like each other lol

[@DeeVee7162]

@@mzzthang3912 the real feud didn’t start until after the song was recorded, by that time the media had been pitting them against each other for years already.

[@antonyware]

“We are done with this athlete” lmaoo. Also Joe, LET IT GO about the video with her wearing her guy’s clothes. Jeez man.. you’ve been glued to that the entire Brandy week 😂 😂

[@blancoBLK]

in case you guys do a week 2 of brandy: 1. What About Us? 2. Talk About Our Love 3. Almost Doesn't Count 4. I Wanna Be Down (Remix) 5. Sittin' Up in My Room

[@janb92]

This is one of the most popular songs of all time man 😂😂 you play it in ANY room full of people and EVERYONE will 100% start jamming no matter who or how old

[@vanessad.2625]

I love this song! The nostalgia is heavy. Deliciously late 90's. The feud they had in real life really added to the tension.

[@DeshawnWilliams7543]

Janet week 2?? 1- Love Will Never Do Without You 2- Rhythm Nation 3- The Pleasure Principle 4- Together Again (Deeper Remix) 5- Rock With U

[@LynLvs2Laugh]

Mekhi Phifer is an actor from ER, 8 Mile, Clockers, Divergent etc

[@ChantiIle]

He was so fioonnne

[@Bj-ht9kv]

It sounds familiar because of the producer Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins. He has a lot of hits behind his belt and this is his signature sound. “Say My Name” by Destiny’s Child was produced by him as well.

[@antonioyazzie4615]

Sitting Up In My Room is one of my favorite songs by Brandy ❤

[@adrianTurbogocrazy]

Yall not knowing Mekhi Phifer is sending me but yall also haven’t heard this song before and it’s a classic, so. He’s a really well known actor that’s been in a bunch of classic black movies, like Paid in Full, Soul Food, This Christmas, and more. He was in Dawn of the Dead and ER. Anyway glad yall chose this song cuz it’s so infamous. If yall do another Brandy week, please do Sittin Up in My Room, Long Distance, Missing You 😢, I wanna be down, and Best Friend

[@idgaf100]

he's Future in 8 Mile or Money Mitch from Paid In Full ....AS WELL AS co-starred (with Mos Def "Legend* & Beyonce) in a made for MTV adaptation often opera titled Carmen: a hip-hopera) ***which is criminally widely forgotten & under praised, just imo!

[@kaylarenee1813]

It was the "yeah get his ass up outta there!" For me 😂😂😂

[@kevaunmitchell1316]

This song is like a response to I wanna say Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney's 1982 single the girl is mine from the thriller album (1982)

[@jennifertebomosiane9596]

YES!!!

[@got2bjosh]

Music theory aside, if hit pop songs sound similar to you, they typically share the same producers. In this case, it's Darkchild. Other top producers crafting the American Pop, Hip Hop, & R&B sounds of the mid-90s to early '00s include: Babyface, Dallas Austin, Timbaland, Pharrell, Jermaine Dupree, Max Martin, & Scott Storch.

[@christianlamar_]

You probably had heard this song before because it was pretty unavoidable in the late 90s and early 2000s. However it may also be because this style was a signature of Darkchild who was one of R&B’s leading producers along with Timbaland. You always could tell a song produced by them because of certain instrumental choices they made.

[@cat73walk]

Maybe you guys were thinking about No Scrubs by TLC? Similar tempo and instrumental arrangements.
