In 2020, R&B icons Brandy and Monica put those pesky rumors of rivalry to rest with a record-setting ‘VERZUZ’ that saw them showcase their respective greatest hits as well as come together for a rare performance of their history-making 1998 duet ‘The Boy is Mine.’

The unity displayed only increased calls for the GRAMMY winners to embark on a joint North American tour – a jaunt that was reportedly in the works at one time but was ultimately canned due to the global health crisis at the time.

And while years removed from the ‘VERZUZ,’ some fans – including Brandy’s own brother Ray J – are still holding out hope the ladies will align their schedules for a co-headlining trek across the continent.

After making heads bob with their previous collaborations ‘Wild Wild West’ and ‘Beat the Case,’ rappers Gunna and Offset reunite to ride the beat of the new song ‘Prada Dem.’

Tapping Leff to direct the new song’s official music video, the hitmaking duo are seen taking over New York City to take a bite out of the Big Apple’s luxury designer stores – namely the 5th Avenue Prada location.

“You ain’t seeing Wunna ’cause the pen better / I’m smoking on the ‘Scott, Coretta,’” raps Gunna before later saying. “Pop a Percocet, help you feel better / I set the trend, I’m a trendsetter / I’m not a rat, still getting cheddar.”

The “cheddar” line comes amid continued chatter that suggests he was a snitch after accepting an Alford Plea deal in the YSL RICO case in December 2022.

Sexyy Red‘s Summer Walker-assisted single, ‘I Might,’ might have been widely ignored at the time of its release earlier this month, but its follow – the March 15-dropped ‘Get It Sexyy‘ – is already proving itself just what the doctor ordered.

Buoyed by a sample of the 2009 Hurricane Chris hit ‘Halle Berry (She’s Fine),’ the Tay Keith-produced jam comes as the femcee’s dancefloor-ready self-affirmation.

“Slim thick, caramel skin / 5’5″, this bi-ch a ten (Yeah) / Hair done, bills paid / Catch me slidin’ in a Benz (Vyoom) / I ain’t lookin’ for no man,” she raps on the chorus.

The tune shot to #1 on the USA’s real-time Apple Music charts just hours after its release, besting the performance of current megahits like GloRilla‘s ‘Yeah Glo,’ Beyonce‘s ‘Texas Hold ‘Em,’ Ariana Grande‘s ‘We Can’t Be Friends,’ Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign‘s ‘Carnival,’ and more.

After one listen, you’ll see why.
