janetDAYZ Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 :lmao: Don't do Brandalai Lama like that.. But I didn't like when Monica named her album after the song.. EXACTLY!!!! I was like REALLY, MONICA??? I didn't get it... Did she ever actually explain why she went with that title (aside from the obvious)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwistedElegance™ Posted January 2, 2011 Author Share Posted January 2, 2011 But I didn't like when Monica named her album after the song.. Yeah, that was shady. Especially considering Brandy had a writing credit and Monica didn't. What kind of "great" video could you really do with a song like that? ..It fit well They could've kept the same theme but made it more visually appealing. I didn't like the dark rooms.

hotboy06 Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 EXACTLY!!!! I was like REALLY, MONICA??? I didn't get it... Did she ever actually explain why she went with that title (aside from the obvious)? I think she explained it on some interview, but I wasn't having it. It didn't sit well with me. But Monica was killing the singles and I enjoyed all the songs on the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotboy06 Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Yeah, that was shady. Especially considering Brandy had a writing credit and Monica didn't. I didn't know that! I think she was using the song to sell her album. Brandy didn't need to do that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But aside from that, I just think The Boy Is Mine is a silly album title. Song, yeah, but album? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janetDAYZ Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Its always been amusing to me how the industry can be. Now ..Brandy WHOOPED Monica's ass as far as sales But ..Monica SPANKED that ass when it came to the singles charts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not like "The First Night" on the first listen. Everyone loved the song around me, so I guess I was influenced to like it. But "Angel Of Mine" was my shit!! Ugh..

I hated her label or whomever that did that. It kinda seemed desperate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a great vibe to it. 'Angel Of Mine' is heaven - I love both versions, but Monica slayed with hers. And I love, love, love her cover of 'Right Here Waiting'.

Escapade Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 She probably drove better than Brandy too. Oh my... lmao I LOVE MJ nd PM's. I boarder line love The Boy Is Mine, cause once upon a time I was a Brandy stan but today I prefer The Girl Is Mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aed05 Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I'm an MJ stan, but "The boy is mine" was 10 times better. It was # 1 for 13 weeks for a reason. I loved the video, I loved the rooms in the video, I loved the ending of the video, the conversation that they have at the start of the song gives me LIFE , I loved the shade they threw at each other in the video, I loved that the song won a grammy, I loved that Brandy was watching Jerry Springer at the start of the video, I loved the way Monica's hair bends when she has her head against the wall ear hustling......... I just loved everything about that duet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
