I don't know if I should say, I'm looking forward to a new album or not. This mess with our R&B female artists is becoming trifling from label to radio (especially radio). And labels. She should rock with Beyonce's label, or Roc Nation, or someone who will actually promote her. Nah. The label for Beyonce is just that, a label for Beyonce. However, I can see her somewhere else. I wish she would do the reality show again. She better off with Lil Wayne's label or something.

What happened with "Code Red". Did they end up pushing a second single or just throw out ideas? Is Monica doing shows here and there? I doubt her album made any money for her unless she has a really good deal and doesn't have to pay back any advance money. I guess having an album out is a way to get hype for shows so I hope that's what she's doing.

Her contract is up at the end of the year and she'd be a fool to renew it.

Let's be real here is RCA really going to offer a contract renewal? Why they won't? They still have to uphold a R&B section on their roster. These labels will come to sh!t if they start really neglecting the R&B area on their labels. I can see a veteran keeping a contract than an investment in finding a new R&B star.

People are doing freestyles to "So Gone". Idk why, but it's dope. Chance The Rapper's freestyle was pinned as a standout.

There's a new version of "The Boy is Mine" that's being used in the trailer for When the Bough Breaks:

Why Chance The Rapper's Involvement In The #SoGoneChallenge Means A Big Payday For Monica (http://www.forbes.com) R&B singer Monica can expect a spike in her royalty check next quarter. Her 2003 single “So Gone” has seen a massive surge in popularity due to the #SoGoneChallenge this past week. The challenge calls for an individual to rap or sing their own lyrics over the Missy Elliott-produced instrumental version of the song. On August 10, Chance The Rapper decided to join in on the hashtag by tweeting his videotaped rendition of a 16-bar verse dedicated to his girlfriend. According to Twitter, his participation has helped to spark over 2 million Twitter users to either take part in the challenge or mention it in their tweets. His video has since received over 240,000 retweets and stands as the highest number of interactions that his account has seen. Monica (in a video featuring Missy Elliott) took part in the challenge as well, and rapped, “Now I’m making racks while they’re rapping on my old tracks.” Apple Music confirmed that streams for “So Gone” have increased by 233% and sales have gone up 407% since August 10. “It’s amazing what can happen when Chance gets involved,” a representative said. Spotify noted that streams for the single have more than doubled with a 129% increase on their platform. According to YouTube, the “So Gone” music video currently sits at 2.8 million views and has shot up 309% compared to the three days before the challenge; the MonicaVEVO channel has seen a 15.5% increase in viewership. The channel’s videos has accumulated over 150 million total views, with Chance The Rapper’s hometown of Chicago ranked as No. 4 in her most popular cities list. Chance was only 10 years old at the time “So Gone” was officially released under J Records. Nonetheless, his ability to increase a song’s popularity across multiple platforms shows that an independent artist might be able to do more for a song than a major label can. www.forbes.com/sites/ogdenpayne/2016/08/17/why-chance-the-rappers-involvement-in-the-sogonechallenge-means-a-big-payday-for-monica/
