    She's like 46 years old and can still can pass for a 20 something old female! I see a lot of people tripping about her accent. Idris Elba is British but he trained himself to talk in an American accent. Same thing with Thandie Newton. When they act, they sound American. But when they talk, they sound like their nationality. I guess it's like when a person stutters. Most people who stutter can sing without stuttering at all. Look up Mel Tillis. When he talked, he stuttered constantly. But when he sang, it was flawless.

    Many comments about her accent it flips it changes in the same sentence but it's not fake. Idris Elba didnt use a Cockney accent playing Stringer Bell? No different then someone leaving different regions of this country accents have a lot of influences. Reality should be is Monie is nice af!!

      i have friends who moved from brazil to portugal and they lost their brazilian accent in 1 year
      but sometimes it comes back and its a mix just like with monie i think its normal

    • @oluowolabi6589
      @oluowolabi6589 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +nyyyankee I think to comes to the choice of friends and influences.
      I have a English friend who been residing in Japan for 5 years and speaks fluent Japanese. so is it normal for him to now have a Japanese accent?? it only normal if he was raised Japan.
      I think as long as a person has a clear and neutral voice then one's accent should not matter.

    She sounds a little like a socialist here...
    But...
    I have to agree that there does need to be a more even distribution of wealth and food between the different countries in the world.
    Just a quick side note.
    I think this was the first time I heard her accent.

    @Solowizard 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    When they're rappng it's easy to forget that Monie Love and Slick Rick are both from the UK and not the US, because you don't hear the accent, but try holding a regular conversation with them and the accent is clearly there. LOL!

    A lot of people forget that Monie Love is naturally a chubby girl almost like Queen Latifah. I wonder what she does to stay in shape. She looks a bit too skinny though.

      Thats what happens when you move to another country and spend most of your adult life there. Its no big deal, she's basically half british and half american at this point. Her talent speaks for itself.
