India.Arie has some of R&B’s best love songs in her discography—”The Truth,” “Brown Skin,” “Can I Walk With You,” and “Chocolate High” to name a few. At a recent concert of hers, her music appropriately became the soundtrack to a special couple’s touching proposal.
A pregnant woman named Brittany Jones was wooed by her now-fiancé, Mike, ahead of Valentine’s Day. “I’ve been waiting a week and a half, probably like almost two weeks to go on this adventure. I don’t know where I’m going, I don’t know what I’m doing […] So y’all stay tuned to see what happens,” said Jones in a video while riding in the car with her then-boyfriend.

She joked, “This is the mastermind that I know of behind it. I don’t know if anyone else is involved.” To which Mike chimed in, “There’s always a higher power.” He later surprised her with floor seats to the Arie’s Feb. 10 show in Atlanta.
It was there that Mike proposed as the neo-soul songbird sang, “The Truth.” After accepting, Arie shared just how persistent he was to make this once-in-a-lifetime dream come true.
“Let me tell you something, your fiancé DM’d me everyday for three months,” explained the singer. “He just wanted me to make a video and I was like, ‘Well, we have this show.’ Congratulations.”
