She left England to come to the States & was embraced by thousands of American hip hop fans who still love & respect her to this day, including myself. Thank u, Monie for your music. It meant a lot to me when I was young. ,,,,,,& long live NATIVE TONGUES.✊🏿
shadyninja1 we loved her but she bounced on us for the USA but in hindsight I don’t know if she would of been successful and widely known internationally if she had stayed in London. Fair play to her..she was part of my secondary school years!! 👌🏾
When you don't do drugs and don't drink with great family genes this what you get at the age of 46 yrs old she is still one beautiful queen who I had the biggest crush on back in the day
ProudToBe AnAmerican What you said made no damn sense. Black dont crack, what the fuck does smoking crack have to do with what I said? was that a poor attempt at a joke? I'm just saying, 46 isn't really old.
The woman is naturally fine! Not sure why everybody is surprised that she still looks good! Are women supposed to turn ugly after age 29 or something?!? That's bullsh!t
There's no reason to be shocked either. Obviously the woman is living right and taking good care of herself (as she should), and by doing that, she still looks good. Period
+AnastasiaLUVSU I hate how some in this generation are quick to call us old.We were raised up in the formation of rap.Being a product of that enviornment we aren't going to be old.Shes one of the few British that doesn't speak negatively about America.We try to form an alliance with blacks in London but some seem to be so hostile for no reason.We created an art form called rap in America that you guys have picked up and created your own form.Stop fuckin hating!!!!! No need for it!!! We don't own you s*it and you don't owe us.
Creed Justice I'll be 39 in June.. ppl always tells me that I "look good for my age" 😏. like a person is automatically supposed to look grandma moses after age 30
i can still remember what monie love said in the interview quote "theyll always be ahead (american) for the simple fact that they have all that history under their belt, you know we'll never be on the same level as them knowledge wise rap music wise i think we're catching up"
Nice interview with music rapper Monie Love. She said her name is Simone Johnson. I didn't know Monie Love is from London. I thought Monie Love was from america. Monie Love, Foxy Brown, Lady Luck, Lady Of Rage, Heather B, Rah Digga, Boss, LeShaun Williams, Little Kim of Junior Mafia, Diamond of Crime Mob, Conscious Daughters are my favorite women music rappers.
Her British accent in full effect here I’m a bit younger first time I saw her was itzsweezee video de la soul. One of my first crushes. Still love this girl
I called in BOOM 107.9 here in Philadelphia last year and spoke to her live on the air. it was about something with Nicki Minaj and I misunderstood the question and she corrected me. I said "O Monie well I was just calling to talk to you I don't listen to that crap anyway." she busted out laughing hard as hell. sounded sexy as hell I aint want to hang up lol.
The first cassette tape I bought with my own money that I had saved was Monie Love album down to earth. I always thought she was beautiful and she still is
Yes Simone, knew her back in the day. I'm from Battetsea also. She is on point about the history, I also went to Spats every Saturday afternoon. I used to sneak out to attend. I know all the guys she mentioned including Westwood. Again on point interview.
Born ta bremeseme born ta bred bred! Respect to the original motormouth herself! i still remember being completely mesmerised when love adopted the feminine look on in a word or two cos it was a complete 360 from the monie in the middle tomboy image at the start...i still have my original vhs tapes with afrika bambada and grandmas party with rear monie interviews and 7A3 and self destruction and ladies first and LA Mix and Simple Simon and Wee Rule OMG WEE PAPA GIRL RAPPERS WHERE ARE THEY???????
What a lady!!! Where are their voices today in 2016? Monie in the middle!!! Fan today, Amities du Allemagne! Today things goes so poor, wish back this good old times!!!!
Is that her in 2016? If so, she looks fantastic! Wow. She doesn't look like she had a rough path or that anything would've slowed her down, I wonder why she didn't have a bunch of Albums back in the day. I used to love her style...
peace and light...hip-hop came to London before 1983'...covent garden began in late 81' with a crew called Roberts ROBOTS,before groove had an electro chart...facts!.
+Mc Speedo some clarifications from pogo - "info 1, the Beastie boys thing happened at Astoria 2. we were called Jus Badd Crew , not productions. 3 me and monies promo project was with Westwood and Brain, but we went to cool tempo in the end. 4. Tuff Groove was Ricky Renald Label"
At the time in the 80s both rappers and singers had to use American accent cos uk didn't have a market for it I guess as u can see till this day .. It was the something that happens in South Africa, Nigeria and some other European countries at the time the HipHop art form was so empowering at the time ...
SIMONE...remember cee pole ....thats Bamms doing ..lets just call it what it is ....That aside lets go way back ...the best Dj in the world ...cosmic jamm..yeah i was there ...from vauxhall college to covent garden. I m not cosmic.
CapiTen10 Ive seen interviews with her where she has no english accent at all, just straight american. This interview and her strong accent confused the hell out of me!
CapiTen10 I think it just depends on where you are and who you’re around. I’m southern and my accent isn’t super prevalent unless I’m tired or around my family and friends. Most northerners say I have no accent compared to people who’ve grown up in the country, until I say certain things.

I love Monie Love. highly Underrated in UK . The English accent is still there. she is still beautiful and stunning.

It's funny when she talks to people in the US you don't really hear her accent

46 years old in this, you wouldn't guess.
Black really does not crack.
ProudToBe AnAmerican
46 isn't old though, it's just white people tend to age like crap.
ProudToBe AnAmerican
What you said made no damn sense. Black dont crack, what the fuck does smoking crack have to do with what I said? was that a poor attempt at a joke? I'm just saying, 46 isn't really old.
ProudToBe AnAmerican
Congrats, not many white women do at that age.
ProudToBe AnAmerican
Sure thing Satan. I'm sick of running into you and your children. It's tiresome. It's been fun, but it's time to block.
WOW! I had no idea she was even English! She was here with Tribe, De La Soul and Queen Latifa. Very cool.

Forty. Six. Years. Old.
An exemplary human being. Monie Love = Life Lived.
I remember her from Battesea she lived not far from the London posse. Her brother was cool too
Is that her in 2016? If so, she looks fantastic! Wow. She doesn't look like she had a rough path or that anything would've slowed her down, I wonder why she didn't have a bunch of Albums back in the day. I used to love her style...
Ink Pen she got pregnant and people said it was giving the wrong message
That's a legend right there, mad respect!

+Mc Speedo some clarifications from pogo - "info 1, the Beastie boys thing happened at Astoria 2. we were called Jus Badd Crew , not productions. 3 me and monies promo project was with Westwood and Brain, but we went to cool tempo in the end. 4. Tuff Groove was Ricky Renald Label"

The most naturally beautiful 46 year old on earth🤔..
I've been having wet dreams of her, for 26 years😊 and still do....😎
Brian Kerogoi I'm only being honest🤣🤣🤣🤣
Brian Kerogoi Vintage *Pum Pum* is the best sir.... Trust me, you'll find out eventually😊
bullets have no name. I have to check it out
Monie, Pharrell, Vashtie Kola, Nas and Bernice Burgos do not age. #Blackdontcrack
Good ole days.. she's still fine
Monie Love, Born N The Great Britain Area.
she speaks so different. like half english and half american english. kinda how pewdiepie talks
As others have said, she looks super young.. I've never seen someone pushing 50 that could pass as 23 like Monie here. The accent is weird though.
Give her water 😮😩
Damn she cute
She still got her accent
doesn't she ever age !!
Moni love you are so fine
She sound like she from Brooklyn on other interviews🤔
Exactly when she's talking to people from the US you don't hear this accent
Wait ! She must be a vegetarian are something ...She looks awesome !
Naw dude..veggies look like crapppp
wow, didn't know she was british
I had no idea she was British
She needs to do a skin care routine video…that s* would hit 1M views in 5 minutes.
Genetics
how is it she doesn't have a accent when she raps but every other British rapper you hear there accent when they rap i don't get it
At the time in the 80s both rappers and singers had to use American accent cos uk didn't have a market for it I guess as u can see till this day .. It was the something that happens in South Africa, Nigeria and some other European countries at the time the HipHop art form was so empowering at the time ...
+iammagnum mag Accent didn't matter back then but u couldn't steal other peoples rhymes or flows and style and as far as I can remember .
Slick Rick used his accent and was one of the biggest rappers in the 80's. He's from London.
Facts^^^^^
Iggy Azalea is Australian but you can't hear it in her music and Iggy's Australian accent is thicker than Monie's British accent.
SIMONE...remember cee pole ....thats Bamms doing ..lets just call it what it is ....That aside lets go way back ...the best Dj in the world ...cosmic jamm..yeah i was there ...from vauxhall college to covent garden. I m not cosmic.
I'd always get her mixed up with MC Lyte
her accent is weird, went from sounding british to american to australian
CapiTen10 Ive seen interviews with her where she has no english accent at all, just straight american. This interview and her strong accent confused the hell out of me!
Nineteen81 I said the exact same thing. I think she switches it up.
Notthefather I know when u sing you lose the accent but I guess I have no clue...didnt know when you rap you dont have an accent
CapiTen10 I think it just depends on where you are and who you’re around. I’m southern and my accent isn’t super prevalent unless I’m tired or around my family and friends. Most northerners say I have no accent compared to people who’ve grown up in the country, until I say certain things.
its that England accent mix with the new york accent.
Black don't crack.
Why does she talk natively in English interviews but American in American interviews?
