For the unversed, the previous episode of Verzuz rap battle welcomed R&B queens Brandy and Monica, who share a history of feuds. During the episode, the two spoke loudly about the issues between them and claimed that the feud was no one’s fault and the two were far away from the dramatics of the whole situation.

However, the singers who collaborated in 1998 for the single The Boy is Mine, their matchup after several years set a ground-breaking record for Verzuz, garnering over 1.2 million viewers on Instagram, as reported by Complex.

The viewers of the show included Tyler, the creator, Michelle Obama, Solange and many other prominent faces. The Verzuz battle saw Brandy and Monica coming together in the same room after a decade. Although there were tense moments between the two throughout the battle, but both the rap queens joined hands to respect the power of R&B.

Now, at one point during the LaBelle and Knight battle, both the legendary musicians said jokingly, “Brandy, Monica? Y’all go ahead and work it out”. As soon as the comment was made, fans ignited the internet with memes, quips and jokes immediately.

While some called it “peak aunt behaviour”, others expressed their sentiments saying it is “wisdom” of the legendary singers. From memes to pleasant criticism, Twitter has been flooded with witty and funny responses. Take a look at it here:
