In an interview with HITS Daily Double, the song’s producer Rodney Jerkins said he’s working on a new project for 2015 which includes a remake of “Boy Is Mine” featuring Ariana Grande and Jessie J.

The two pop stars recently collaborated on one of 2014’s biggest hits, “Bang Bang,” along with rapper Nicki Minaj. The original “Boy Is Mine” won a grammy for Best R&B Song and was nominated for two more.
