Published on March 15, 2012

Brandy and Monica, two of America’s most powerful vocal songstresses, have disclosed that they will be embarking on a tour as part of their reunion activities.

The two joined forces to record the smash hit The Boy Is Mine in 1998 which was written and composed by LaShawn Daniels, Fred Jerkins III, Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins and Brandy.

The song was described as the answer song to Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson’s 1982 duet The Girl Is Mine and was released as the lead single from both Brandy and Monica’s second albums, Never Say Never and The Boy Is Mine in 1998.

After 14 years of that union, the two are back with a single It All Belongs To Me ahead of the individual albums expected to drop in April (New Life for Monica) and June (Two Eleven for Brandy).

The two, speaking in an interview on BET’s 106 & Park said “We are talking about a tour and everything” to mark their comeback and also give their fans more of them.

They however, did not reveal the tour dates as indications show things are at a planning stage.

Brandy who has fallen in love with acting after appearing in The Game and Tyler Perry’s upcoming The Marriage Counselor said “We are definitely here of service to the fans we just want to give them what they deserve, what they want so whatever you guys want us to do we are going to do it.”

Touching on the video for the single which was released earlier this month, Brandy, born Brandy Rayana Norwood, said the shoot was “so much fun … and exciting and it was dope.”

But Monica, born Monica Denise Brown, who blew up a car she bought for her ex in the video advised that “We can’t forget that videos are just like movies they are for entertainment. This [blowing up the car] was not my suggestion for how you handle things [broken hearts].”
