AceShowbiz - Shyne has publicly responded to the recent reaction by Ray J following a podcast discussion involving several rappers reminiscing about their past relationships with Brandy.
The conversation took place on the It Is What It Is podcast, where Cam'ron, Ma$e, and Shyne shared memories from the late 1990s, including their connections to the singer Brandy. During the episode, it was revealed that both Ma$e and Shyne dated Brandy simultaneously without being aware of each other’s involvement.
This revelation sparked a strong reaction from Ray J, who took issue with the way his sister's name was being brought up. In a video that quickly circulated online, Ray J warned others to keep his sister’s name out of their mouths, emphasizing that he would not tolerate disrespect towards her. He stated, "One thing you're not gonna do is talk about my sister and think I'm not gonna respond."
Ray J further clarified that he had no personal issues with Shyne, Ma$e, or Cam'ron, but expressed frustration over the joking nature of their comments about Brandy. He conveyed that anyone speaking lightly about his sister would face a strong response from him.
Following this, Shyne directly addressed Ray J's comments with a clear statement denying the claim that he was the first to date Brandy. He wrote, "Let the record reflect I did not 'hit it first,' most respectfully."
As of now, neither Cam'ron nor Ma$e has issued detailed statements regarding the controversy, and Brandy has chosen to remain silent on the matter.
