Monica should work with Timbaland, or perhaps go back into the studio and record a new song, or a re-release a song produced by Timbaland. Monica needs something fresh and new!

I agree. She's never worked with him and I'd love to see what they come up with.

We may never know, "Hell No" may work well in pop and urban radio. I think "Raw" and "Why Her" also have the potentials to be singles.
Would it sound right, if Monica were to sing songs like Nelly Furtado's "Maneater," or Timbaland and Justin Timberlake "Release?" Monica have made good pop songs, during the 90's era( i.e., First Night, All Eyez On Me, Don't Take It Personal.

Were there any remixes from this era? Does Monica have ANY remixes at all for that matter? Either urban or dance... thanks in advance for any info!

It has that Urban appeal she was looking for and it's catchy, but not in a sing-a-longy way if you know what I mean. I think "A Dozen Roses" would've done way better as a first single or following a hit.

They are still moving ahead with that? At least the label has SOME faith, LOL.

It seems like no matter how hard I try & request "Hell No (Leave Home)", my radio stations still haven't added the song at all.
But hey, they did play "Everytime The Beat Drops" again last week. =/

After the storm has not yet been certified, it's up to the label to pay for certification.

Is this the last album on her contract? Lord knows it needs to be.. that label is doing no good by her career.

I can't help but wonder what would've happened if they had released "Why Her?" as a single (perhaps the 1st or the 2nd).
But yeah, my radio station STILL won't play "Hell No". Damn them.

It's really sad that this album didn't do as well as it could and should have done. Really I think it's all because of the wrong single choices along with more promo needing to be done. Here's how I believe the singles should have went...
1st Single: Why Her 2nd Single: Hell No (Leave Home) 3rd Single: Raw 4th Single: My Everything

"Why Her" as a first single? Nah.... "My Everything" as single? Never. I still thing "Raw" should've been first with "Hell No (Leave Home) second and the 3rd should've been between "A Dozen Roses" or "Why Her?"... if she went with "Why Her" she could've done a continuation with the stories as well.

As J Records has dropped the ball with Tyrese and Fantasia's recent efforts, it seemed as if they didn't even try. I don't get who is choosing these singles. If they really did their pre-singe release research, they wouldn't pick the crap that they are. Plus, sound marketers know how to promote in the right venues in the right way with the appropriate corresponding energies.

Monica Had a baby boy :)
Taken from sandra Rose
Hi, Sandra. Thank you very much for checking on us. We are all doing very well and truly thank God for our new addition. Romelo Montez Hill was born on January 8th at 2:15p.m. He weighed a healthy 5 pounds 6 ounces and was 19 1/2 inches long. Thank you and your readers for your love and support. Lil Rock and Romelo mean the world to me, and so do those that support us. Again, thank you and look for my new album Summer 08. God bless you!!” SANDRA ROSE HAS POSTED THIS UP WITH A NEW PIC.
