Well Doves, you knew this was coming! After the “Never Say Never: The Brandy Singles Rate” began by none other than Kool_Aid_King, I just had to clap back with her counterpart!

Born and raised in College Park, Georgia on October 24, 1980, Monica Denise Arnold is a Grammy Award winning R&B singer, songwriter, producer, and sometimes actress. At just the age of 14, Monica blasted on the music scene with her debut single, Don’t Take It Personal (Just One of Dem Days), which climbed to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 (blocked by TLC’s legendary Waterfalls), and her debut album, Miss Thang, which went 3x Platinum and showcased the streetwise hood Monica that she is. Since then, Monica became one of the top artists of the 90s, having her first 7 singles make the top 10 on the Hot 100 throughout the 90s.

Throughout her career, Monica has achieved a great deal of success like her contemporaries, Brandy and Aaliyah, even though many people totally disclaim her! She became the youngest artist ever to have two consecutive chart-topping hits on the R&B charts, and the first artist to have a chart topping hit on the R&B charts in the 90s, 00s, and 10s. With 3 #1 hits (The Boy is Mine, The First Night, and Angel of Mine), 8 top 10s, 8 albums, and over 30 singles released, it can be clear that Monica is one of the top R&B artists of all time. And even with her failed relationships and a suicide in her life, Monica is “Still Standing” with her three children and her NBA star husband.

Now on with THE RULES:

• Rate each song on a 0-10 scale
• Only ONE song can be given an 11 (pick wisely)
• Only ONE song can be given a 0 (I know how you Brandy stans can get, and I’m not having any trolling in here!!)
• Decimals are allowed only to the HUNDREDTH place (6.54). Any scores over that will not be allowed and sent back.
• Don’t leave any song out of the rate. I will give all of you enough time to listen to every single for completion.
• Send me the rates by PM! No posting your scores on the thread!
• Enjoy yourselves. We had a great time with Brandy, and I know Monica can have the same treatment.

Feel free to comment on the songs you rate. I may not allow score trolling, but I still like a nice laugh, so express your feelings towards the songs while you rate!

I will also add in a few questions from the Brandy rate to boost up the fun.

Originally posted by Truth Teller I'm doing this This made me realize Code Red only had one single Weren't they gonna release Alone In Your Heart or something? Ugh, RCA... Anyway Y'all better give justice to Everything To Me, Street Symphony and Why I Love You So Much. My trinity of underrated Monica songs, although I did cut the entire last minute of the latter, she did TOO much

Originally posted by Latinazza I'd like to do this. Was it approved by Ace?
