Two unanimous decisions came from tonight’s Mayweather/Maidana fight: 1) the winner and 2) that R&B diva Monica killed the U.S. national anthem. Taking to the ring before the highly anticipated fight, see Mo belt out her most memorable rendition of the tune yet below:
Thanks to our friends at TE:

Please stfu, and by the way, i’ll pass.
NOT! I’ll take MONICA over Brandy’s ugly murdering flop ass any day.
Honey that comment was a little far….that’s y’all problem you’re so focused on these peoples personal lives you’re not paying attention to what’s important…THEY’RE TALENT!! Brandy nor Monica should be considered clops they both have paid there dues….I honestly think they’re both underrated
Flops*
You sound pressed as hell…have a seat.
What does Brandy’s ugly @ss have to do with Monica? If Monica’s a flop, then what do you call Brandy “Who performed for 40 people in a 90,000 seat arena” who’s on her 3rd straight FLOP ALBUM. Ugh, I can’t stand when basic bit^h’s talk sh*t.
I’m tired of people trying to make their rendition of this song so unique or memorable that the fvck the song up. Adding those runs and holding those notes are unnecessary. At least she didn’t forget the words. Everyone who forgets the words becomes a flop or an even bigger flop.
#BRANDYWHO?
Love her, can’t wait for the new album
Mo killed it as usual
That was a mess honey
Monica’s a vocal beast! Absolutely love her!
oh yeses mam she sang the hell out of that song. it reminds me of whiteness version. s*** she even sang it better that all the times BEYONCE sang it. and it wasn’t even at the super bowl or for the president. hahaha.
TYPO… sorry i meant to say whitney version.
Please, anybody can sing the national anthem better than beyonce and her basic ass nocals.
Amen lol
This post is about Monica,why do these bitter f*** feel the need to drag the queen into everything? You b****** are nuts. #StayPressed.
Sighs..look at how Beautiful monica looks so i can see why brandy fans always Mad LOL Anyways monica did great Love her so much…been here 20 years and will remain cayse she so relatable, always got the people support!PeoplesChamp
Exactly. I love Monica, so real, so talented, and so beautiful.
Seriously though, Brandy fans are always the first ones in a Monica post talking sh*t, but never the other way around. They really need to leave that tired 90’s b******* behind.
No boo brandy fans are not LETS BE VERY CLEAR! Those are bey/ rih fans doing that s*** then sayin they brandy stans so your naive ass can fall victim and talk s*** on brandy! We love monica! And make sure you cope CHRIS BROWN X-ALBUM AND CATCH BRANDY AND CHRIS DUET
First off, I have to say that Brandy’s name shouldn’t have been brought up here in the beginning and as a fan of both of these women ya’ll really need to let that non-existent beef go cause they are grown ass women and great artists so cut the b******* that is all. #STARZnDOVESUnite
Monica fans be so mad hhaha sit y’all asses down…monica is done lol she looking like someone granny and she tries so bad to hold a note, just be u girl lol because them goat notes ain’t working lol
She killed it! Can’t wait for that album.
Good job Mo!
The second rnb ratchet ho.
Yes girl sing!!!
My girl knows how to hold a big note.
She slayed but dragged it just a tad to long.
Very strong and powerful singer though.
THANKS BOO
This was just desperate. Embarrassing
Why are Brandy fans so mad? Monica always had the better voice and had a longer career and more successful albums. Sure Brandy was big in the 90s, she was that t*** pop girl, but let’s be real, as soon as those lil white kids seen Britney and Christina Aguilera, that was the end of Brandy’s career. She made a mark, she set the standard for the Ravens and the rest of those Disney/Nick chicks.
Lol brandy fans stay mad because they know Monica shiits on her vocally (and when it comes to looks too lol).
Brandy fans never mad because brandy don’t sound like a f****** goat lol take your fav monica back to that farm
I disagree. Brandy is the more skilled vocalist. She can do so much more with her voice and she doesn’t make the same album over and over like Monica. Monica had one platinum album in 03, then a gold (certification) in 2010 thanks to her BET reality show then she went back to flopping in 2012.
Mark111 is clearly on drugs.. Monica is great but if you google, you could learn her albums were overshipped. she had more #1 singles but brandy slayed her in album sales.. NSN did over 17mil WW thats more than Mo’s discography
now she still has current GOLD albums, thats the only thing that separates her from brandy
but brandy’s lie about her marriage ruined her image
Good for Mo and Brandy, but how’s Ciara WW sales?
she started out great but that end was like church karaoke she needs to polish up her climax or find a alternative route that end was cringe worthy. I dont need to bring another singer into the mix to hear what i hear
THIS is what you call a Vocal Bible. Not that alien looking heffah brandy, who’s brother is more relevant than she is right now.
Tell them why you mad though? Lmaooo brandy never called her self the vocal bible that’s something the INDUSTRY and FANS coined her. That viewing Monica just did single handedly showed why she could NEVER. Parts of that was good, and I’ll use parts LIGHTLY. It was over sung, and pitchy. VERY PITCHY to be precise. Brandy COULD and she HAS. BOW the f*** down h**! Btw monica looks like a drunk and love reject…no shade
Haha u wish this goat was the vocal bible hahaha please hashtag vocal bible and google it hahahhha no where will monica pop up, u guys kill me because y’all really like the way that goat monica sound lmao that s*** hurts my ears lmao brandy will be on Chris brown X album go cop that lol
Chris felt sorry for Brandys broke ass that’s the only reason she’s on his album. He knows that Monica is superior to Roachdy.
Monica SLAYED the living hell out of this song. Took me to church and back BRING ON THAT ALBUM.
That was just WOW!, i swear people complain about everything, at her age, after all these years, her voice is still out of this world, that was better than Whitney’s superbowl rendition, even tho i can hear a little bit of her in Monica, that was perfect, BRAVA!
Are you joking? Better than Whitney’s? Lmaooo!!!
Monica is the new age Whitney. The torch has been passed and she carries it with class!
Y’all have got to b kidding me. This was a hot, pitchy, monotone,not knowing where she was going with the runs, mess.
Boy oh boy monica fans is so pressed they came right to this post and tried to let brandy have it, all I have to say is hashtag vocalbible on insta lol or perhaps google it hahaha dumb monica fans …monica sounds like she was queen of the goats on a farm lmao haha …..monica fans don’t come for bran because i can talk about monica all day haha so make sure y’all check BRANDY out on CHRIS BROWN X album song called DO BETTER ….no goats allowed hahaha
Pressed, but wasn’t it a Brandy fan who came into a Monica post to talk s***. Now please go worry about your flop UGLY fav. Now have a nice day.
http://youtu.be/6Eke-lGeJGo
Nothing special, she sounds like Aaliyah there, even Beyoncé did it better and she is not called ‘The Vocal Bible’.
Stick to Madonna and rock bands because you clearly don’t know how Aaliyah sounded lmao. She sounds like signature BRANDY with the smokey, yet sweet tone, control and flute like vibrato.
Don’t go there Dead Blonde. Your mad cause no one will NEVER ask Madonna nor any of your crappy rock bands to sing the NA.
I hope that wasn’t supposed to be a dig at Aaliyah because her rendition was great for a 16 year old…great transition, belting, control and vibrato.
Oh my! I loved this! Where and when was this?
That was a hot cigarette sounding MESS, with her UGLY ASS.
I’ve always said this girl needs vocal lessons. She used to brag about never having a vocal coach and it shows. Even the greatest singers have vocal coaches. The ending ass terrible…made me want to turn in my citizenship.
Don’t you stan for a yodeling fraud? B**** bye. Monica is R&B royalty and she doesn’t have to be naked or fake pregnancies to do so. Boom!
Seriously? I don’t have anything against Monica but you need to keep it cute because I will gladly drag her.
LOL COULD SHE BE ANYMORE OFF KEY?
WHO SAID THIS WAS BETTER THAN WHITNEY? I HOPE YOUR BEING SARCASTIC!
AS A MATTER OF FACT PITCH PERFECT WHITNEY IS ROLLING OVER IN HER GRAVE AT THIS MESS.
Ok…..I’ve bought several Monica albums I still listen to after the storm till this day BUT my problem is she never knows how to keep it simple with her live performances..she sang the song way too slow she held out notes way too long and her runs were messy…if she would’ve cleaned this performance up it was have been more solid IMO
You were reading my mind cause I feel the same way.
A MESS!!! Those long God awful notes and 14 keys she sang in at once! I cant with mary had a little lamb. Id never get into a debate with a Dove. They dont know real vocals!!
As a fan of Monica’s AND being a singer myself, I give this performance a big fat NO! Monica will continue to destroy her vocals until she realizes that less is more! Oh and by the way, the Monica v Brandy thing is so 1998. They are both R&B icons.
Correction: Monica is an R&B icon whilst Brandy is a flop illuminati w****. Her and Beyoncé are high priestesses in the illuminati.
I’m not even a Monica nor Brandy fan, but it’s true though, you Brandy Stan’s seem so pressed though. And in your own words below….
Odds are, if you’re going out your way to prove your fav’s worth, you must truly feel that your fav is inferior to artists you’re hating on.
That was not a good performance at all!
This was overdone. The performance was over the top and flat out ridiculous. Yes, she can sing but her rendition was overrun and theatrical.
I don’t understand how a Monica article managed to get so many comments
Are you bothered because your fav is beyond irrelevant?
It got progressively worse as it went on
A lot of y’all could never and will never. All you will ever be is nothing more than a computer bully. Anyways monica did great. Good to see her using her lower register.
I’m Sorry I just had to laugh!!!!!! That was messy.
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-DSFrGnQrk&w=1280&h=720%5D
Ewwwwwwwww
Looking in the mirror d***?
As per usual she was doin the most and sounding amazing. I can’t with that lipstick and hair though.
Why does it always have to be argued who is better between Brandy and Monica? Can’t we just celebrate both artists for bringing their own unique talents and qualities to the table? None of the ones talking want to go to work or school and constantly be compared as a lesser to someone else, so it’s time to kill all that.
Because we all know Monica shits on Brandy.
Loved it.
Monica is, has been and probably always will be a much better vocalist than Brandy. Monica’s voice has more clarity, more sophistication and is more agile/seamless and smoother than Brandy’s. Brandy’s voice is raspy, childish sounding, mumbly and at times harsh.
Said no one EVER! Please list everyone who cites Monica as a vocal influence.
Said everyone without wax in their ears. Monica was always a better singer than Brandy.
EXACTLY @ DMWN! Speak that truth.
What does brandy have to do with this? She is a better singer than monica
Please clean your ears ugly d***
This has to be thee worst rendition of the national anthem.
As far as i’m concerned Monica peaked at 14 when her debut album was released, and her voice has been deteriorating since then. On every album since her voice sounds well worn and weathered and here is sounds like she should be knocking 50 in age.
Im waiting for KeKe, Fantasia, Kelly P so give the national anthem life
All of those b****** are flops. Monica is a legend and can and will sing those R&B diva cast members under the table.
True CLASS AND SOPHISTICATION. Beyoncé and Brandy could NEVER do it like Mo. #REGAL
Now you’re being a troll, don’t bring Beyonce into this, because I see what you’re doing.
Get out of my box with that trolling foolishness. Did I lie?
You Brandy Stan’s are just like your fav, pressed, basic, and UGLY AS HELL. And please quit using MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS to agree with yourselves..PATHETIC. And that vocal bible s*** LOL please, that ugly b**** sounds like she’s been smoking cigarettes with a stick up her ass.
ROACHdy will never be on Monica’s level. Flop has-been vs R&B royalty. The new Whitney/Anita. BUGdy could never.
I KNOW A RATCHETNICA STAN AINT COMING FOR BEYONCE WHEN HER LAST HIT WAS SO GONE LMAO F*** OUTTA HERE CUH
That was a troll. And boo, Monica’s last hit wasn’t So gone, she went on to having others “Everything to me, and Love all over me”.
NO THE F*** IT WASNT BETTER THAN WHITNEY OR BEYONCÉ VERSION THIS LOW BUDGET SHAKY MESS
Lol @ the struggle to start up some beef (left behind in the 90’s). I can’t with these people exaggerations though … better than Whitney???? I don’t think this performance was one of Monica’s best. Of course, Monica has a powerful voice though, I’m not shading her. I just feel like I’ve seen her do better vocally – even when tackling some of Whitney’s songs. People are clearly coming in here with some agenda, Doves & Starz are not on that mess in 2014! The emotional stanning have some people trying to make everyone else clash just because their fav is being dragged to the pits of hell in older posts. Odds are, if you’re going out your way to prove your fav’s worth, you must truly feel that your fav is inferior to artists you’re hating on.
I’m not even a Monica nor Brandy fan, but it’s true though, you Brandy Stan’s seem so pressed though.
And in your own words below….

Says the f*** with the flop blog pitting artists against each other, writing essays on Rihanna, writing essays on Mariah Carey, and more. You CAN’T talk. You and your flop blog are hypocrites. STFU. Brandy CAN’T even sing. She would have a better chance of signing a multi-million dollar deal as a poster child for starving children of Africa, before she ever gets talent or becomes mainstream again.
LOL @ her being the poster child. Seriously though, they hype that frog face looking b**** lol up as this vocal God, when she’s really as basic as they come. Seriously though, I can’t stand her voice.
@Cici/Aaliyah
Pressed? What about? Seriously, that’s everybody’s come back to these things, but what exactly are we mad about in this post?
@Ugh
…But were pressed right? You sound like you are very passionate about hating Bran. That does nothing to me! Btw, I hardly every discuss Mariah, Rihanna or Monica. What my opinions on topics concerning them doesn’t need to meet your approval. TF do I care about what you think though?!
Said the f** who stans for the UGLIEST chick “Aka Brandy” in music.
^ When are you going to use your main account so we can really see who you are though?
Idk why Queen Beyonces name ends up in every post around here (literally), but it’s obsessive. Yall should also be ashamed going back & forth about Brandy and Monica like it’s 1998. Brandy, Monica and Aaliyah were the 90’s trinity and all of them deserve respect. With that being said, this wasn’t Monica’s best performance, but everyone knows she can sing. So can Brandy and Aaliyah also had a beautiful voice. I swear you gay guys love to put women against each other unnecessarily. #HateIt

Whens her new album coming out?
when will that flop baby mama or baby daddy (we still need to know if shes Ciara or is she chris because were not sure if shes a man)going to release his or her 4th FLOP CONSECITIVE generic GARBAGE OF an Album
At “Thriller or Smooth Criminal”, please stfu, thanks.
Lol at you Brandy fans starting s***, and in the process, getting dragged. Anyway Monica did her thing, that girl can sing her ass off. Side note, i’ve always preferred Monica over Brandy.
What a bunch of bored queens. Seriously, everyday is the same with you corny gay wads. Pit this female singer against that one (or bring up Beyoncé out of the clear blue), instigate some drama so that you can pretend to be 5x tougher online than your swishy ass actually is in real life. This is what happens when little boys don’t have fathers and are overly coddled by their mothers who wished they had had a girl.
Monica sounds like she’s underwater when she sings and don’t get me started on those tired 1995 long notes that she can’t even execute. She’s a notch above Keyshia Cole vocally.
Oh look, most TGJ commenters are showing their lack of vocal pedagogy as usual. Never, throughout Monica’s music career has she ever been a better vocalist than Brandy. Brandy is an actual classically trained vocalist, whereas Monica decided to b******* her way through the industry with her amateur/untrained vocals just like Xtina( which is so evident it’s not even funny). Everything was a mess in this performance from her poor intonation down to her butchering the melody with those unnecessary elongated notes and unwanted runs at the end. Frankly, Monica’s rendition is about as great as a goat attempting to sing the anthem.
#Pure struggle
Monica makes very poor decisions as a vocalist. This is why Beyoncé is the top b**** in the game. She is constantly evolving vocally. Why is Monica still singing like an amateur after 20 years in the game?
Instead of you Brandy fans worrying about Monica, worry and think about WHY your ugly flop fav hasn’t had a hit since the 90’s, with her basic horse sounding, raspy, no vocal range ugly ass.
Brandy’s voice often lacks confidence and she usually sounds like a chipmunk with laryngitis. Whose music you happen to prefer is whatever, but make no mistake that when it comes to SINGING that Monica IS the better of the two.
Monica is an overrated singer.
Most of her fans know nothing about
The technicalities of music. Brandy
Is the better singer today, has still
Sold more albums today, and always had
The better career overall, past present
And future. Choke on that, pigeons.
Please list singers and artists who
Cite monica as a vocal influence.
#iwillwait
I’m not a fan of either, but I have to disagree, Brandy’s is the one who’s overrated. Her voice is irritating as hell.
Excuse me, I meant, “Brandy is”.
Monica will hold a flat ass note out until Jesus comes back and y’all would swear up and down that she was the best singer since Whitney Houston, and that’s nothing but devilment and delusion.
There’s absolutely nothing unique or anything that stands out about monica’s voice. She’s a poor mixture of Whitney/Mary J blige fused together, and she has no distinct sound or style. What I find most confusing here is that majority of these folks will easily praise her for producing mediocrity, but will refuse to give Brandy her props for anything.
I can admit when monica is good, but this simply wasn’t. She’s been incosistent vocally for some years now. All people say about her is that “she can SAANG”, but unfortunately that’s where it begins and stops for her. Monica was never on Brandy’s level, and she never will be so stop with the lies and delusions of granduer already.
What I know is that Brandy’s voice is typically hoarse and grating and that Monica’s voice is smoother and easier to listen to. That’s what I know. And what I suspect is that most of these Brandy defenders are the same one or two people posting under multiple names.
Speak on what you know, and keep it at that. What you’re giving is your own personal opinion. Vocally, monica has been inconsistent for some years now. Overall, Brandy takes her craft much more seriously and actually has a passion for music. She has better technique, better tone, intonation, and a wider range.
Your dislike of Brandy’s voice is just like me saying “I don’t like chocolate”. Just personal tastes, but from a technical standpoint, Brandy wins hands down. Even if some Brandy fans are using multiple accounts, why should that bother you? It amazes me how much monica fans/supporters like to keep tabs on what OTHER folks do, and act like they’re not pressed. In real life, it’s not like monica can bring traffic like this on her own, let’s be real here.
B^tch, have a seat, NOBODY gives a f^ck about Brandy’s ugly murdering a** as is evident seeing how she hasn’t had a hit since the 90’s, and is on her 3rd FLOP album, I REPEAT, HER THIRD FLOP ALBUM. Now please take your opinion of Brandy’s basic chipmunk a** voice, and go stand in front of that bit^h’s Range Rover. Have a nice day.
@Truth B**** mute! You need to fall back in someting that reclines, and mind your own damn business. Monica murdered that man, you h*** know she killed jarvis, and she even admitted to carrying a gun! Your fave is nothing but a washed up criminal who should be in JAIL.
You h*** stay bringing up Brandy’s name because y’all know she’s still a THREAT to your ghetto ass fave, that’s why y’all can let go of this beef and stay trying to make her happen by comparing her to GREATNESS that is Brandy Norwood.
Face facts! Monica hasn’t had a top 10 R&B song in 4 years! Fact! Monica hasn’t had a crossover hit in over a decade since 2003’s “So Gone”! Fact! Monica went from a platinum album to not even going gold with “The Floppings of Me”. Fact, monica had a shelved album (all eyez on me), it doesn’t get any worse than that. Fact! Clive Davis used Brandy’s song as monica’s sophomore album title to push her sales, but who is the one making money and collecting royalties every time she sells a copy of that sorry ass album? Brandy f****** RAYANA Norwood b******, keep her name in your mouth. She will forever SLAY this ghetto bird, past present and future! Deal with these truth ghetto ass h***!
LOL Bit^h, stfu with that jibber jabbering mess you just spit out, you sound so fu^king mental. Now seeing how I don’t debate with the mentally ill, I won’t be wasting anymore of my time. Have a nice day you crazy bit^h lol.
@Truth Sorry, I don’t interview ratchets like yourself. You’re f****** dismissed, stage left.
My fav stans for Brandy so I will defend her! Monica has no technique or real range. Everything about Brans voice shits on Ghettonica <<<
Monica sound like a whining goat. Brandy has the real range look how low she started while Monica yodeling in the same off key the whole time. Poor Whitney!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04sbJUpE_t0
LOL @ these Brandy Stan’s still talking s***. Are you fools trying to convince us, or yourselves. Your ugly fav is basic, get over it.
Wow Monica is slaying that national anthem! Also what’s going on here, why are Brandy fans in here with that tired 90’s beef. Anyway, i’ve never fancied Brandy, i’ve always like Monica more.
Monica is f****** done guys. She was never
Big. Or on Brandy’s level ever! Full moon

This dumb b****. You’re telling us to buy Monica’s music, but you as Brandy fans haven’t done that for her last three albums..what kind of self drag. And wasn’t it just last month when your ugly fav was on Oprah’s “WHERE ARE THEY NOW”..now b****, that’s the definition of a FLOP. Now, Monica’s last hit was “Love all over me 2010, when was Brandy’s, oh yeah, the “Boy is mine 1998”..Girl another self drag. B****, you’re embarrassing yourself, along with that mud face looking fav of yours..but continue though, your self drags are hilarious.
Monica was never a f****** factor

Monica was outsold by ONE brandy album.
What is it about that you idiots don’t get?
Monica’s albums were over shipped, she’s a ghetto
Flop who hasn’t had a hit in 4 years! No barbie
Dolls, no endorsement, no tv shows, nada! Keyshia
Cole, k michelle, and Mary j drag her.
Brandy already scalped this thot. Now deal with
That ghetto pigeons.
LOL Dead at Brandy being on “Where are they now” that is hilarious, that ugly b**** is done.
Monica slayed it! Can’t wait for her to drop that album.
I could never understand this ridiculous Monica vs Brandy beef. Anyway I like them both, but I do prefer Monica more.
I don’t like either one of them, Brandy’s an ugly fake murdering b****, and Monica’s ghetto as hell.
