I know it's been posted before, but it was actually a new acoustic remix which they used the original Brandy vocals for.
This is mixed with the actual Darkchild instrumental


Gotta say Monica did add something to the song, but it's still nice to hear the original take

ReVonIsMine

Monica simply added attitude and argument to the track.
It was very needed and necessary for this song to hit like it did and still does.
I feel like she actually pushed Brandy to come out swinging with her vocals, especially towards the end.

Significant Discovery: First known Black American family of Kalmyk descent

Takeaways: Be prepared to pivot, even when you think you're on the right track. Be OK with being wrong so you can get things right.

Kalmyks are tribal Mongolic people who settled in Russia. It's estimated to be only 300,000 Kalmyk descendants worldwide - with only 3,000 in America.

I do not like the single version. I can't even listen to it all the way through.
I just love the back and forth, tit for tat dragging each other. It's more realistic. :scrumptious:

This is really smooth  :flamebroiled:

It's actually crazy what Monica brought to the record though. Especially, at the time with them both being so hot and all the supposed rumors.

I know when they cut that final mix they knew they had something special.

But who woulda thought, #1 for 13 weeks..and a Grammy...ack!

Oof! The solo vocals sound way better on that acoustic version

Monica def brought something to the final beat and official version

It's weird how she's holding back for most of the song but randomly goes in on some of the ad-libs. It's definitely sounding like demo vocals

ReVonIsMine

Lashawn was such a treasure. He brought the best out of both of them on that song vocally!

I think if either of them did the song on their own - it wouldn't HIT the way it does.

Thanks for sharing this version. Let's not give Monica too much credit now.. someone did lay down all the foundation for her to walk on.
