Shortly after her response, a fan of Harlow clapped back at the singer, tweeting "not you sat on this for a few days and now deciding to reply after it died down it’s not that deep" to which she replied:
"I know I’m mad late… but it was a joke ❤️ I didn’t know he rapped so I was just Poking 😂 but I see now this was a big thing a few days ago ❤️". She later added "See, I can have a little fun too hehe…all love".
After the clip went viral, fans of the Norwood siblings roasted Harlow on social media for being clueless as well as being a part of Black music but not knowing Black musical knowledge.
One user wrote: "Not recognizing Brandy’s voice is why he shouldn’t be doing black music".
Another person tweeted: "Jack Harlow not knowing Brandy and Ray J are related doesn’t have anything to do with a generational-gap. It has to do with the fact he’s white and grew up in a WHITE CULTURE, where Black culture isn’t a relevant topic, unless it’s about how to appropriate it. Simple".
Jack Harlow not knowing who Brandy is or that her and Ray J are siblings is not bc he’s young or bc he’s “Gen Z”. It’s bc he’s a white man from Louisville Kentucky who panders to black culture

Jack Harlow intentionally putting black women in his music videos, parading around loving black women, maintaining a large fan base of black women, but not knowing brandy and ray j are siblings speaks volumes to me.

Harlow later took to his IG stories to respond to Brandy's clap back in a funny way, sharing a photo of Brandy and Ray J together with the lyrics "I always knew that one day / They'd try to bring me down," from Brandy's Kanye West collaboration "Bring Me Down."
