Monica has been in the headlines after she responded to Ray J in March this year

Ray J appeared for a conversation on The Breakfast Club in March 2024 where he expressed his wish to go on a tour with Monica and his sister Brandy. He also stated that Monica would be opening for the tour. As a response, Monica shared a lengthy statement on her Instagram Story where she expressed her frustration for being questioned about the tour.

She said that she has not been contacted so far for any such events. Referring to Ray J, she added:

"I'm kindly asking you to stop speaking on me in public! A private conversation would both be necessary and respectful! Brandy is a legend! She's one with an extensive back catalog that I deeply respect & a voice sent from heaven."

While Denise Arnold's statement grabbed a lot of attention, Ray J went for another interview on Way Up With Yee the same month. He apologized to Monica for his words, calling her a "great artist" and added:

"All I want to do is kind of like shake it up a little bit to get y'all to see that that should be like one of those like… one of those last wave tours. Like, 'Let's do this for the next three years.' It was just all trying to get your attention."
