Rating: - * This is their best work ... I luv the song that Monica and Brandy (2 of my All-Time Main Music picks) which is excellent and considered an A+. Everytime I hear that record, it reminds me of how they started working together on the track. U can't go wrong on this. Namean? It's off the album that which is Brandy's breakthrough "Never Say Never" which the hottest-selling CD and the best R&B album of All-Time. I still have it today which I bought it cheap at a thrift shop. If u luv Beyonce, A. Keys, Tamia, or whobody, then this is the right song 4 u. Rating: - * Pretty Good But Not a Classic ... I like Brandy and all and she has a good career going on, but I don't think she should do duets with anyone whose voice is more powerful than hers. "The Boy Is Mine" is a good song that came out in 1998- the year that music began to really suck. The video was alright and Monica's hair looked great. But you know, if you're going to have a video that's about fighting over a guy, make sure that he's cute, okay? Mekhi Phifer is cool, but he's not all that. Anway, I enjoy the song and just recently I've found myself being able to relate to it, but that's another story for another time. Rating: - * I'm Glad! ... This is one of my favorite Brandy tunes.She co-wrote the song and it's pleasant synthesized harp intro is very effective,as is the fading phrase 'the boy is mine'.The song has a minimal,sharp groove and a catchy hook but there's one little problem-Brandy and Monica arn't all that well matched as duet partners.Brandy's vocals are sensually low-key and quiet while Monica often oversings to such an extent that she ends up laying on that vocal malisma all too common in many singers of that era (even early Beyonce')very thick.But the lyric and vocal arrangement are believable and though the friendly feud never really gets resolved by the songs so abrupt ending.The CD that followed 'Never Say Never' has many high quality songs but you'll hear my review for that later. Rating: - * i want a 2nd part of this song ... I think this is one of the most important duets of all the times even when they both r still on the way to be mega stars (here in LatinAmerica they are not very recognized) but the people we know them we love this to fine girls) the MTV performance was excellent too bad i couldn't record it but remember this is a classic so you must own this maxi cd Rating: - * Nice summer song by Brandy & Monica ... This is a nice single by Brandy and Monica even thougt Kobe is in the video.This was also a massive summerhit from 1998 and I will give it my stamp of approval I like this song you should to Lyrics 9/10 Production 10/10 Overall 9.5/10 |
