ABOUT BRANDY

Brandy is a multi-platinum, GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter, actress, producer, and vocal arranger widely celebrated as “The Vocal Bible.” Her self-titled debut album made her one of the youngest solo artists in history to chart multiple Top 10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, including “Have You Ever?” and “I Wanna Be Down.” Her 1998 duet with Monica, “The Boy Is Mine,” spent a record-breaking 13 weeks at #1 and remains one of the most iconic songs in R&B history. Brandy made history as the first Black actress to play Cinderella in Disney’s Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella alongside Whitney Houston—a cultural landmark she reprised in 2024’s Descendants: The Rise of Red. In 2015, she brought her signature power and charisma to Broadway in a sold-out run as Roxie Hart in Chicago, and in 2020, she released her critically acclaimed seventh studio album B7 on her own imprint Brand Nu Entertainment. In 2024, she reunited with Monica on Ariana Grande’s “the boy is mine” remix—earning another GRAMMY nomination, 25 years after their original win. Her forthcoming memoir will offer an intimate, unfiltered look at her journey from Mississippi church stages to global superstardom, sharing the path she’s taken to find her voice as an artist, mother, and woman.

ABOUT MONICA

Monica is a GRAMMY Award-winning, multi-platinum recording artist, actress, philanthropist, and entrepreneur who has sold over 30 million records worldwide. Born and raised in Atlanta, she began her career at just 12 years old and made history as the youngest female ever to have two back-to-back #1 hits on Billboard’s R&B chart. Her legendary duet with Brandy, “The Boy Is Mine,” spent a record-breaking 13 weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was later named #2 on Billboard’s “Greatest of All Time Songs of the Summer.” Monica is the first artist with #1 Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop songs in three consecutive decades—joining the ranks of icons like Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, James Brown, and Marvin Gaye. In 2019, she launched her independent label MonDeenise Music with the #1 single “Commitment,” and her first full-length studio album under the imprint, MDA, is scheduled for release in 2026. Last spring, she was the special guest on Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday 2 Tour—the highest grossing rap tour ever by a woman—and on June 21, 2024 she reunited with Brandy for Ariana Grande’s “the boy is mine” remix from Grande’s GRAMMY-nominated Eternal Sunshine album. That collaboration earned Monica a 2024 GRAMMY nomination, 25 years after her original GRAMMY win for “The Boy Is Mine.” She’s also set to release her debut country album Open Roads in 2026, executive produced by Brandi Carlile.
