    I met Monica when I worked at the Bloomingdales in Lenox Mall. She was so nice to me. She stopped me and asked me to help her. I almost cried in the back room looking for shoes for her kids. It was such an honor to work with her that day.

    Monica is R&b royalty fr. She’s criminally underrated and I’ll never understand why! Girl got hits under her belt and a strong fan base! I think she’s too real for the industry! The industry been giving her fake tulips for too long, she definitely deserves her flowers!

      Shes not underated at all shes the product of her own efforts or lack there of
      She has not properly maintained her voice similar to whitney they both just went on the natural.greatness of their voice but without proper care and technique it will deteriorate
      Additionally monica does not have any other avenue shes not a writer not a producer not an actor
      So there is nothing to rate except her cutrent singing and performance state which is very subpar so

      100% agree. I have always loved her music growing up and I listen to her on pandora. I didn’t keep up that much in college and after I graduated medical school. I saw her perform twice this year and I have been amazed each time. I am now a dedicated fan trying to catch up. She is a legend in my eyes and very talented.

      A lot goes into live performances especially outdoors, so many variations especially with multiple artists to make adjustments for. It's hard to pinpoint everything from acoustics to echos with different sound engineers, gotta go with what you got at events like these. Most genres outside of R&B are heavily music driven aside from vocally driven. She did good if you know live from studio.

There was a fight scare prior, which threw everything off schedule and some of the performances overlapped.
