The tour, named after their legendary 1998 collaboration, will also feature special guests Kelly Rowland, Muni Long and American Idol winner Jamal Roberts. Stops include major cities such as Atlanta, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Brooklyn.
The announcement marks a milestone for the R&B stars, whose iconic single The Boy Is Mine held the No. 1 spot on Billboard Hot 100 for 13 consecutive weeks. Despite a long history of public tension and solo careers, the two reunited musically in 2012 for It All Belongs to Me and again in 2023 for Ariana Grande's Grammy-nominated remix of their original hit.
Brandy shared with Variety, 'This really is a full-circle moment. Monica and I coming together again isn't just about the music-it's about honouring where we came from and how far we've both come.' Monica added that the upcoming tour is a celebration of the R&B duo's history, impact, and the fans. 'We're giving the people what they've been asking for,' she said.
