I love this sonng ..you remind me of my gucci shoes LOL… Curtis Mayfield classic.. Monica looks really nice

Ha ha, knew I gonna be first by the end of the night..lol

Love the video, has a grown vibe to it, not feeling the song that much, like her last album better

Monica is the shit…keep it ghetto girl

I actually like this somg.. Way to go Monica!!

I really dig this video, it just gives the whole ghetto love vibe of the song. Get em Monica!

Like it, ‘Marlo” from The Wire is looking nice too. That’s my show, I’m more excited to see him!

Im glad she is confident with her body, cause if that was my body I wouldnt be

I love this video,the song is hot and Monica looked beautiful and the guy from the wire is easy on the eyes.

ok… this video reminds me of some other video, cant put my finger on it tho…

I like the song and the video .

Kool video. Like this song. Maybe its just me but this video kinda reminds me of LeToya’s video for She Don’t. Some of the settings look similar to me. Maybe they had the same directors.

Lol @ 7, I was thinking the same thing, some ppl need to wear clothes at all times.. like Star in the other post..

@ 9, I agree, this video reminds me of a combination of videos… someone’s been biting

#11 if I’m not mistaken they did have the same directors.

Those HUGE tattoos take away from her.

Co-sign with #7.

The song is alright.

I actually like this song, although my love affair with Monica ended years ago. I will say, though, I cannot stand it when she “raps” and that Bacardi Limon product placement was just a bit extra for me.

I don’t like this song at all.

I like the old Monica. The “just one of those days” Monica. I met her in Atlanta about a year ago. She’s really nice and pretty.

The tattoo on her leg is bigger than her leg. She is just to scrawny to be rollin around on the bed naked, when she rolled over on the bed her boobs werent even filling out the bra. Oh my, but cute song!!

I love this video she looks so pretty. Every single one of her songs on her cd IMO, are off the hook! I mean Monica is doing her thing that’s my girl. Go ahead Monica shake the haters off and do you!

#7 - Her body is great! Slim and trim!

Okay watching it a 2nd time, these are the videos Monica’s video is biting..

The very first scene in the bed: Amerie “One Thing”

When Monica is looking directly at the camera: Aaliyah “Rock the Boat”

Monica laying down: Gwen Stefani “Luxurious”

Monica in the restaurant: Latoya “She Don’t” or Fantasia “Truth Is”

Monica walking down the street: I think a Jill Scott video, I can’t remember

#21, man you keep up with you videos!!

your

I am not feeling Monica. I used to like her when she first came out but now she is so gone to me. She needs to put on some clothes she does not habve a body to expose.

Thanks Suga Buga..lol, I watch too much TV instead of doing work, in fact I needa be writing a paper now..

Where is her originality? She has lost it. I’m not interested in her at all anymore.

But people could say those videos are biting off of others also.lol

ANyway it is okay IDK not feeling her this time around.

im feeling the song (i think we’ve all had it since jan. or something, and im still feeling it!!)

monica has def evolve, from a gyal to a mother/future-wife/woman,a nd she’s done it ever so gracefully, feeling the song and the cd erbody def needs a copy!!

prettygirl86, Gurl I know the feeling, I watch too much tv too, and then I do all my papers and study at the last second. !!!

@ 27 Rena, you’re right, but her video is REALLY obviously with it, and the lyrics remind me of R. Kelly’s song..

Only reason I’m bringing her out is because I expect more from her, she used to run it in the 90’s, but she lost it, I agree with #26 Love.

Lol @ Suga Buga, we gotta do betta!! Shit at long as I get that degree it doesn’t matter..lol!!

I like the song. And I agree with yall Monica was better back in the day, and she looked way better back then too. I don’t know why she trying to act so……”hard” all of sudden.

oooooookay!!!

I was more excited to see Marlo too lmao that’s my damn show. I knew it was him from the side that’s how you know you a wire addict!!!!!! Nice video. Nice song. Love Marlo!

I thought monica had a better body when she was singing “just one of dem days”

I agree monica is watered down now.I guess she trying to sell records.. I love this song though

I’m sorry, love the song, hate the video.

Am I the only one who thinks that Monica is just totally unbelievable when she tries to come off as ghetto in her videos? She just looks like she’s trying too hard. I can’t watch the video for Everytime the Beat Drops with a straight face, she just doesn’t look right. This video isn’t as bad as Everytime the Beat Drops, but she’s still trying to do that ghetto look. She was almost looking sexy-but-classy in the bed scene but those big-ass tattoos ruined the whole shot.

Bring back SASSY Monica with the short and sexy haircut. Because hoodrat Monica just isn’t doing it for me.

Damn I can not stand hating losers! For all of those saying Monica looks bad get a life and stop hating.

Afro Jamaicano you are on point.

Monica just ruined my favorite song. Curtis Mayfield would never approve this. YOu people must hear the original. Lauryn Hill sang this at Cutis’ Memorial Service. It was wonderful. If I can find a link I will load it for you guys. I have the mp3, but I am computer illiterate.

I love this video and it makes me love the song even more and monica really looks nice and to the people who say she to skinny she should keep her clothes on sounds like hate to me because everybody don’t wanna be big and fat.

@ 39 Angie stone remade it also

I’m thin and it’s not that Monica looks bad because she’s thin but something about her body doesn’t look right, no hate (you know I gotta say that b4 I get labeled as a hater). Amerie is thin and she looked good in her vidoes..

PUUUUHLEEEZE, Monica look like a blak ethiopian rolling around in that bed!!

I love Monica’s ghetto ass! She looks beautiful in the video. Get em girl!

ROFL at Suga Buga, you know!!

a pretty ethiopian though!!

#42-Maybe it is because she is really linky, and Amarie body is more in proportion.

Yea Angie remade it. Lauryn’s version is just as it was written and it is a beautiful tribute. It was performed at his Memorial service as I mentioned.

love monica… but not really feeling the song. hopefully it will grow on me.

and i dont think she should have done that peek-a-boo scene. shes very pretty but the girl has NO curves. and that has nothin to do with her being skinny because i know skinny girls who have some kind of curves. shes just straight up n down… like a little girl. you cant be mad at people for saying it because its true.

Right I have a girlfriend that wears an extra small, but she got curves, I mean bootie and hips!! Monica looks like pencil. I mean, she is a loaded pencil so Im not mad at her!!

“shes just straight up n down… like a little girl. you cant be mad at people for saying it because its true”

More like a little boy. And ladies please stop with the graffiti all over your bodies. That shit is not cute.

There were a couple times when she reminded me of Keyshia Cole in the video. It must be the hood rat chic swagger that they both have perfected.

@21, yeah I’m sure she sat down a was like “what videos should I bite off of for this song?” I guess.

You can’t compare Monica to the “One of Those Days” and now, she was like 13 when she did that video! I’m pretty sure none of us are the same as we we’re when we were 13 (Just take a look at my recent myspace pic lol!)

This vid is crazy fly. Big Ups to Monica for reppin “Thw Wire” with that SEXY Marlo. I was screamin and creamin when I saw him. This is my fav

umm Monica was OLder than 13 when that video came out LOL>

no more than 14, maybe 15, but loving Monica and The Makings of Me, COP IT!

yeah she keeps it hood, doing her, loving this vid and song

I saw her on the post awards show and I must say she’s a good host and very well spoken.

my third post, lol, but she’s doing it up in this video, cute in every shot and i would love to see her in the curly hai, cute on here!!

AHHH Marlo I love him my little quiet thug I love when Monica does her little rap thingy it’s just so cute I love this song that reminds me it’s time to watch the Wire on HBO on Demand

This song is just mediocre and the video is horrible. The use of the sample is not impressive at all. I can’t believe that with that gorgeous voice she has Monica is singing such boring material. There is nothing musically interesting about this song. And her body looked like my 9 year old nephew’s when she was laying on that bed. Why, oh why did they do that shot? Two lackluster singles from this album so far. Pity.

I am not feeling this he best part is her rapping

I Really like this song. I actually like her whole album it’s very beautiful. My favorite song is hell no featuring Twista. Oh my God Monica you have my baby Marlo(in case you don’t know who he is he star’s in The Wire the HBO series)in your video GO Mrs ATL do the damn thing. I’m just happy to see that’s she doing her thing after everything she’s went through.Go Mo

Monica is my girl, since she told me “don’t take it personal”…this girl can sing..i’m still mad no ones buying her album..it’s good..but side bar..she got my dude dude marlo from the wire in the video… i like him and her…so the video is hot.

Monica is too hood/ghetto for me now. “You remind me of my Gucci shoes?” I mean, you could’ve gotten a bit more metaphoric than that. And them big ass tattoos…ewww…you can be a bit hood and classy at the same time. And this is comin’ from a used to be huge fan of hers so I ain’t just purposely hatin’.

Monica has a boyish shape. its nothing wrong with her being thin but she doesn’t have any shape at all. I really wish she would have stuck w/ the covered up look like she was doing before in her career cuz the sexy look is not for you boo. She’s beautiful, not sexy. and whoever said her body looked better in her early career, i agree.

Co-sign @ #61! Something is definetly missing. Used to prefer monica back in the 90’s. She does have a really good voice, but the music she is doing nowadays isn’t cutting it for me.

I love Monica. I’m still playing her old songs.

People who prefer the “OLD” Monica prefer a 12yo girl cuz that’s when she recorded the album. I believe it dropped when she was about 14yo. I respect people having a difference of opinion but there’s not much logic. What if someone said I preferred the 13yo YOU and you’re 25? I mean that’s ridiculous. We all grow up. Just my 2 cents.

2 more cents. Although, I am a fan and have been so for a long time I do agree with the lack of originality. It’s not her “biting” per se but the fact that the same video directors are used over and over again and honestly how many original ideas can they have (just giving them the benefit of the doubt). To have an original or “different” video these days you have to use someone unknown or who’s just starting out directing.

i like the song, I really do… But is it me or is she channeling KEISHA COLE>….BEYONCE>….Gwen Stephani>,,jesussssssssssssssssss….

shes boring, wat kind of ghetto song is this “u remind me of my gucci shoes” lack of good lyrical content. she needs to find a new song writer. shes not that pretty at all, “one of those days” was my tune. if any1 has it please send it to me or giv me the link. peace

“She is just to scrawny to be rollin around on the bed naked, when she rolled over on the bed her boobs werent even filling out the bra.”

What boobs? Poor thing.
That video just made me sad. She has always been skinny though. She was skinny in her old videos, she just dressed differently. Now she tries to dress like she has a shape, it’s just that she doesn’t.
Skinny jeans when you are really bony is not a good look. Low cut tops when you have no boobs is DEFINITELY not a good look. Showing all of that bird chest! Please stop doing that, by the way.

I love mOnica she is so humble and she looked good last night at the Hip Hop Awards

First off let me just say I love the song!!! Monica’s hair and makeup is on point too!

I agree about that those scenes do look familiar…

But when she was laying down I thought more so Ashanti’s video “Only You”…
