After weeks of speculation and hype generated by producer Rico Love, Brandy and Monica have finally debuted their new joint single, ‘All Belongs to Me’. This version of the breakup tune will be included on Monica’s upcoming ‘New Life’ album, which has once again be delayed, this time until April 3rd.
For those who may have forgotten, an alternative version of ‘All Belongs’ will be featured on Brandy’s new album, which will arrive in May. Yet, that shouldn’t stop you from listening to the original arrangement below:
‘All Belongs’ is a solid R&B record and although I fail to hear the Top 40/Mainstream appeal that was promised by Love, the track has a strong chance at excelling on the Urban and Adult Contemporary formats. Of course, Monica certainly needs the tune to be a success since the buzz for her ‘New Life’ project has completely faded.
Regarding the vocal performances, which the eager fans would be excited to compare, both women did a phenomenal job. Brandy’s fluid in runs in her lower register were on point and Monica did great work with the belting.
It was obvious, however, that Monica was given the lead on the song because this is the version that will appear on ‘New Life’. Hence, I am intrigued to hear Brandy’s rearranged record.
Yass! Go off Mo and Bran! Loves it and can’t wait for both album! # Newlife
This will be a #1 (REAL R&B RECORD)hit.
i DIIIIIED when Brandy said ‘So log off your Facebook…’
YAAASSSS!! iFelt Brandy had the lead in this version tho.
I love the fact that they kept their promise.
Well, it’s not as spectacular as I was expecting seeing as this is the long awaited reunion of Brandy and Monica. I was really expecting some in your face vocals and out of the box lyrics. But still, I say it’s a decent song.
That song is what’s popping for the mature and sexy crowd,Im 31 so I LOVE REAL MUSIC not that bullshit that you teeny bopping niggas like.
I doubt they’ll be getting a Grammy nod or any of the other extra acclaim they received with “The Boy Is Mine”…but it’s a nice album fuller and they vocally sound great but its Mo and Brandy I wouldn’t expect anything less vocally. I know Brandy will have a different version of the same song on her album :handclap:
Well when I look at what’s nominated these day for grammys.(Bullshit) What happen to people enjoying good music? Oh I forgot they were mind fucked with all this trash of today.That’s all I have to say!
@KING, ITS GOOD MUSIC BUT ITS NO THE BOY IS MINE, ITS NOT AS SPECTACULAR AS ASSUMED IT WILL BE, BUT ITS STILL A SOLID JAM IN ITS OWN RIGHT
@baba hottie, The boy is mine was many moons ago. This is a new day, so why would you even compare when they were teens to who they are today?
i love this song!!!!!!!!!
I’m sorry but the song is not the bizness at all.
Brandy’s part is better vocally. Monica did okay, nothing surprising.
Both ladies vocally delivered, but the song as a whole is very underwhelming. To be quite honest, I wasn’t expecting anything groundbreaking being that Rico Love is the writer/producer of the song, which says enough within itself. He has yet to write or produce anything stellar. However, I still look forward to hearing both ladies albums, especially Brandy’s. It’s been a long time coming.
