The album debuted at number eight on the Billboard 200 and at number two on the Top R&B Albums in August 1998. Upon release, The Boy Is Mine received generally positive reviews from contemporary music critics, who appreciated the album's production quality and praised Monica's overall vocal performance. Additional producers included David Foster, Diane Warren, Jermaine Dupri, and Rodney Jerkins and his Darkchild crew, some of which would become household names on subsequent albums. On the record, Monica worked with a variety of producers and writers from different genres such as gospel, R&B, and hip hop, including frequent collaborators Dallas Austin, Colin Wolfe, and Daryl Simmons. The album deviated from the formula of her debut Miss Thang (1995) as she had more creative control over the material she recorded a step that she considered a "natural progression". It was released by Arista Records on July 14, 1998, in the United States. The Boy Is Mine is the second studio album by American R&B singer Monica.
