RANDOM PICS: MONICA ON 106 & PARK
Wednesday, October 28, 2009

Monica hit up 106 & Park on Tuesday night to promote her new BET reality series, “Still Standing” (which premiered on Tuesday). The new series follows Monica around the ATL as she works on her 5th studio album, builds a new house and raises her young sons. Shout out to Freddy O for the pics.

She kind of has an Edward Scissor Hands type look going on. But those boots a freaking killer…very sexy. She is a slim girl..she always has been. Look at Angel of mine and street symphony. Major props on her show.

she’s more than just slim- she has no shape at all so the problem isn’t her weight, it’s her body shape. she’s pretty though and has a beautiful voice

I love Monica she outsings all them bishes even though I like them to its Monicas time. I love the way she reps her true love for Rocko and openly speaks about how her past relationship were a mess but he brings a sense of peace and stability to her that trumphs what she Thought was love in the past. Their children are so beautiful I know they are going to try for a little princess! She is always flawless head to toe! Ciongradulations Monica and all the best! Thank you for NOT doing another my family effed up and I love drama reallity show!

Cute shoes. I actually watched the show tho I am so over reality shows and it was good no drama no HAM no ghettoness so very refreshing.
I had forgotten all about her ex-bf that committed suicide in front of her. I sympathize cuz my bff dude did the same thing in front of us and I can’t/wont ever get over it.

Why do people ALWAYS have to find something negative to say? it’s almost a crime if you don’t SMH. Monica looks great and her show debut was great too, that’s actually one reality show I will watch, let alone watch BET.

I usually like Monica’s style im not feeling the crock pattern on the jacket maybe it should of just been plain leather! She’s so lean and she’s pretty too! I liked the show well, I will be tuned in! I can so relate to her she’s down to earth!

I used to think Monica was just ok, but after watching her show last night her attitude & personality really made me love her. She seems very genuine. I also like the way she is with her family. Beautiful person.
I do have a couple of questions though. On the show she kept talking about still standing and going through so much. What exactly has she gone through? I know her boyfriend committed suicide years ago, but I want to know what she’s referring to.
@ #11 I think she has a good singing voice, but she yodels too much for me. I like when she just sings. To be honest though, I have never heard Monica just rip up a song before. I’m not hating because I really do like her; I’m just keeping it real.

@23 she had to deal with her BF killing himself, her grandmother passing and another close relative all in the same year. she dealt with som fake person taking pics during her times of mourning to make a fast buck. She’s dealt with C-Murder’s drama when they were together. All at a very young age. She’s just trying to show people young and old that you can make it no matter what you have been through andf you can still stand and smile and hold your head high.
@23 she has ripped a number of songs. you can check out youtube for the live version of why i love you so much. and you can also check out Inside. every song on the miss thang cd, b/c at 12 years old she was killing most grown women.
And may i point out she has no real vocal training. give credit where it is do ppl

I’m from London and love Monica soo much. She just really honest with herself and life.
I love how she admits that she had alot to learn in life and she’s come through many storms.
Monica can defo Rip a track.
youtube watch her performance of “A Dozen Roses” on CD USA.
CLASSIC vocal performance

@ #31 I just checked out “Inside” on youtube. It’s a very good song and she sounded good, but she did not rip that. I’m sorry.
@ #23. I agree with you. I like Monica but I don’t get all the hype about people saying she’s a SANGER, and how she’s so much better than all the chicks out right now. Jazmine Sullivan, Brandy, Beyonce, Fantasia, LeToya, and Kelly Rowland all have stronger voices. I’m not saying Mo can’t sing, because her voice is beautiful, I just don’t understand all the hype around her being a “Sanger”. I’ve never heard her belt out anything. She has a soulful voice and does a lot of runs (melismas). Is that what it is?

I absolutly love and adore Monica….she has such a sweet spirit!!! Not to mention she is super talented vocally ( in my opinion one of the best in the business)!!! I am so glad she’s finally making her come back to the music scene.

@34 SHINOBI you must be out of your right mind if you think for a second that Kelly Rowland, LeToya or Brandy have stronger voices that Monica. I hate to be negative but you must be either deaf, retarded or cracked out. I think I can safely speak for everyone when I say your credibility has been entirely stripped after that comment. lol You sound like a joke sweetie.
If you want to hear Monica rip something, check out “Everything To Me” on YouTube from her upcoming album.

Yeah but all that happened, how many years ago? The title would have been perfect if it had been a year after those events. *shrugs* w/e..I used to be a huge Monica fan but now..eh..not so much. It seems like no matter what she is wearing the outfit always comes off as cheap & boring. I despise BET so I won’t be watching her show. Rocsi looks soo cute.

@ CrackIsWack: Crack must not be that whack, because you’re obviously on it. I see you are one of those delusional people that believe soulful singing with a bunch of runs means a powerful singer. Monica has never belted out ANYTHING. Have you even listened to LeToya’s new album? She hits higher notes and actually belts better than any song Monica has EVER put out (Listen to Good to Me, Lazy, & Don’t Need You). Monica has a more soulful voice than Brandy, but Brandy’s voice has always been stronger, and a lot more versatile. Listen to “I Thought” off Brandy’s Full Moon album. Mo can’t touch that. And with Kelly Rowland, just listen to “When Love Takes Over”. Monica could never pull that off. I just listened to “Everything to Me” on YouTube. It sounds great. She’s always had a great voice, but she is just doing a bunch of runs, still not demonstrating any strength. I want to hear Mo actually belt a song out. She always plays it very safe. Maybe she will surprise me on this album. I hope so.

@41 SHINOBI I am already familiar with all of the songs you’ve named. I loooove Brandy and I looove LeToya’s album, HOWEVER, it’s a disgrace to suggest that LeToya compares vocally. LeToya has a sweet voice and all but live, Monica would embarrass her. LeToya cannot sing well live as many artists these days cannot.
Brandy is a different story. Brandy can sinnng. Her voice has an amazing quality and her arrangements are like no other, however, I don’t think she is stronger.
I’m getitng the impression that you are either really young and “unaware” or just have bad taste in general (based on the songs you chose to illustrate strong singing, lol– give me a break). Either way, no need to respond b/c you’re opinion is not even worth entertaining at this point.

@CRACKISWACK….I AGREE WIT U 100%
MONICA IS A VOCAL BEAST…the only place she lacks imo is in the style sometimes. it to me seems as if she is Always in black…damn. i need to see some orange or green purple blue something…but i love the look here tho. i seen the show and that jacket was BANANNAS did u see it from the back?? the shoe game was right as well. but cant NOBODY NOOBODY touch monica on the VOCALS!
@Shinobi all them ppl u named didnt know how to SANNG until recently. THEY ALLLL have had vocal training. and i support all of them so it NO hating…jmo. AND FACT MONICA HAS HAD NO TRAINING and is up there…shes the most talented simply because she has the most REAL RAW talent out of them all……at the end of the day tho..ppl are gonna like/dislike who they wanna we all have that right.

MONICA CAN BLOW……..PLAIN AND SIMPLE. WERE ALL ENTITLED TO OUR OPINIONS SO ITS NOT A DEBATE. ALSO I LOVE HER ATTITUDE ABOUT LIFE AND YES IT WAS 9 YEARS AGO WHEN SHE WITNESSED THAT SUICIDE BUT GUESS WHAT IT PROBABLY FEELS LIKE 9 MINUTES. I EXPERIENCED THAT 14 YRS AGO AND IT FEELS LIKE YESTERDAY. SHE GETS NOTHING BUT LOVE FROM ME. WE SAY WE NEED POSITIVE TV AND THEN GET MAD WHEN WE GET IT. SHES OPEN ABOUT THE FACT THAT SHES MADE MISTAKES BUT IT CLEARLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE WAY THE NEXT GENERATION HANDLES THINGS SHES FACED. FOR THAT SHE GETS MY VOTE

Even Terrence noticed that she has a really good “aura” or sumthin around her, and she said its the kids. I think its the fact that she has a great relationship w/God and that she isn’t afraid to talk about it that makes ppl gravitate towards her. Gotta love Mo, much success to her this time around!!

I LOVE MONICA AND HER MUSIC BUT I’m confused as too why her show is called “still standing”…..standing from what??? She has never had negative feedback from media or anyone one else so whats the point??? Or rather if its about work and raising kids well thats no different then any other reality show. I guess everyone has to have a show…..Hell I need one just so I can get paid…..ol well.

Aint nobody did nothing to Monica. She just wants to sound important and empowered. She is wack to me she has a beautiful voice but she is now being featured on tracks with Keyshia Cole she fell off big time. And why is she so damn skinny?

I disagree with 40 and 41. letoya luckett can sing well live. Your’e can compare brandy and letoya or monica voice. because they all sing on different voices. Letoya sing saprano and brandy atlo. they all have good voices.

Do stop now! You’re the only one in this thread who seems to want a Brandy vs. Monica ‘Battle of the Best Voices’ war up in here. Hardly anyone has said anything about Brandy and, if so, they were not “hating” on Monica and she (Brandy) wasn’t the only artist mentioned.
SMH. Moving along…
I like Monica. She’s a good singer. I always support my quality Atlanta artists. :~)

I AM SO PROUD OF MONICA! HER STRENGTH, BEAUTY, AND STRONG SENSE OF SELF is INCREDIBLE. MONICA LOOKED GREAT ON 106 AND PARK AND I LOVE THAT ALEXANDER WANG JACKET…FLY,VERY HIGH- END AND UNIQUE!
MONICA’S SELF CONFIDENCE ALWAYS SHINES THROUGH IN EVERY AND ANYTHING SHE DOES.I THOUGHT THAT THE FIRST EPISODE OF “STILL STANDING” WAS TERRIFIC! HER HONESTY AND WARMTH IS MOST DEFINITELY INSPIRING. MONICA IS IN A CLASS ALL BY HERSELF WHEN IT COMES TO HER VOICE…PERIOD. WHEN YOU HAVE legendary ARTIST LIKE WHITNEY HOUSTON (BACK IN THE DAY LOL), MARY J. BLIGE AND PATTI LaBELLE
BUT MONICA’S LIVE PERFORMANCES TAKES ME TO CHURCH AND BACK…for real! I LOVE HER, WILL RIDE FOR HER UNTIL THE WHEELS FALL OFF BECAUSE SHE IS GENIUNE AND HAS A PURPOSE.
COSIGNING HOW TALENTED YOU ARE….you have ARRIVED. I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST ALL THE OTHER FEMALE R&B ARTIST THAT ARE TALENTED

I really like her attitude, she’s more authentic in character & personality;however, if I see her wear black 1 more time at a television appearance, well I’m gonna rant about it again. Clearly she has to have some other colors in her closet? Brown cld even suffice @ this point.

Monica is a vocal beast. This show & this album will remind people of that.
