In the ultimate Black Girls BOND moment, Brandy and Monica—two icons whose voices helped define a generation—have announced their first-ever co-headlining tour. And yes, it’s a full-circle moment in every sense of the word.
More than 25 years after their chart-topping duet “The Boy Is Mine” sparked both massive success and behind-the-scenes tension, the two are back—this time as grown women, healed, in conversation, and ready to take the stage together. The 24-city “Boy Is Mine Tour” kicks off this October, bringing fans not just a show, but a moment of reconciliation, power, and legacy.
“This is bigger than a reunion—it’s a celebration of growth, sisterhood, and the love our fans have given us from day one,” Brandy said.
Monica added: “There was a lot of misunderstanding between us. But we’ve had the conversations now—woman to woman.”
From Rivalry to Resonance
Their 1998 hit stayed at No. 1 for 13 weeks and sold over 2.6 million copies—but the media-fueled narrative of beef, miscommunication, and teenage pressure followed them for years. Now, they’re reclaiming that narrative.
The Verzuz battle in 2020 reopened the door. The remix with Ariana Grande in 2024 sparked renewed synergy. And this tour? It’s the official bridge from what was to what’s next.
What to Expect
- TOUR: Runs Oct 16 – Dec 7, with stops in NYC (Barclays Center, Nov 20) and Newark (Prudential Center, Nov 21).
- LINEUP: Joined by Kelly Rowland, Muni Long, and American Idol winner Jamal Roberts.
- VIBE: Cinematic visuals, full-circle hits, new energy, and an unmissable celebration of Black excellence.
This Is Bigger Than Music
This is what growth looks like. Two women, once kept apart by industry-fueled drama, are now choosing unity over ego, purpose over perception. For fans—especially Black women—this is a reminder that healing is possible, sisterhood is powerful, and the story doesn’t have to end how it started.
In short: this is a bonding moment —and it rocks.
