About this Song
From the Philippines, Ariana Grande's pop recording "the boy is mine" is an R&B track that reimagines the 1998 Brandy and Monica duet of the same name. The song was inspired by a leaked demo Grande made for a comedy sketch and her fans' appreciation for a "bad girl anthem." The lyrics express Grande's affection for a man she believes she is destined to be with. The song received positive reviews for its '90s R&B sound and sultry lyrical content. "the boy is mine" is from her seventh studio album, *Eternal Sunshine* (2024), and was released as the album's third single on June 7, 2024. A remix featuring Brandy and Monica was released on June 21, 2024, and received a nomination for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards. Brandy and Monica also made cameo appearances as newscasters in the music video for Grande's "the boy is mine." Monica stated that Grande's remix brought her and Brandy together, allowing them to communicate more in recent weeks than in the past two decades.
