The singer and reality TV personality ended up in the middle of the situation<\/a> as tensions grew between Shyne and Mase, who both claimed they were seeing Brandy at the same time.<\/p>\n

Wanting to set things straight, Ray J shared a public apology to Brandy, stressing that he never meant for any of the situation to cast her in a negative light.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy bad B! \u2013 this apology is for you and ONLY YOU! \u2013 I was outta pocket. No spin, no extras. You\u2019re my blood and I moved in a way that didn\u2019t reflect your brand in a positive way!\u201d Ray J wrote via Instagram. \u201cI apologize for real, and I\u2019m making sure my actions line up with respect moving forward.- I accept the repercussions of these actions!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI will always defend you and anybody in my family I truly love! \u2013 But I have to learn how to express myself in a respectful manner especially when you are involved! \u2013 I still don\u2019t like none of those guys and what they did was janky AsF- but what I said was not ok \u2013 hopefully I can be apart of your world in the near future or 2027. And to my mom and dad I apologize too. Sincerely On tha dead homiez.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

As BOSSIP<\/em> previously reported<\/a>, the situation between Brandy and Shyne picked up again after he appeared on his former labelmate Ma$e\u2019s podcast, It Is What It Is. During the conversation, Cam\u2019Ron brought up the idea that the two rappers had once been involved with the same woman at the same time, and that woman was Brandy. While Ma$e stayed somewhat vague in his response, Shyne offered more detail about his feelings for her and what their relationship looked like, explaining that he did not know she was also seeing Ma$e.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is my dream person. Brandy,\u201d he said in the interview. \u201cI\u2019m a poor kid in Brooklyn watching MTV, watching Moesha, watching her on BET and, as a dreamer, I\u2019m like \u2018man, if I ever, if she was to know Shyne, I got that\u2019. So, when I came up, she was in the crosshairs, I was sniping. And I had no idea, he was special and he was running that play so discreetly, so quietly that I had no idea.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added that while he was excited about being with someone he admired for so long<\/a>, he confided in a mutual friend about their relationship, and that information eventually made its way back to Ma$e.<\/p>\n

Brandy\u2019s Rare Statement<\/h3>\n

As expected, Ray J stepped in to defend his sister, taking to social media to issue what he called a \u201cwarning\u201d to Ma$e, Cam\u2019Ron, and Shyne. That moment shifted the situation further and led Brandy to address everything herself.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the late \u201990s, I had a platonic friendship with rapper Shyne. In an unfortunate turn of events, that friendship is now being mischaracterized as \u2018we dated,\u2019\u201d the singer began in her lengthy caption. \u201cUnequivocally, we did not! I\u2019m not sure why an untrue narrative about a scope of what was a friendship more than 20-years ago is being reshaped during his current media interviews.\u201d<\/p>\n

She also shared that years of people reshaping her past played a role in her decision to finally tell her own story. Her upcoming memoir, Phases, is set to release this month and will give fans a chance to hear everything directly from her perspective.<\/p>\n
