For those of you who missed the premiere of THE SINGLE: MONICA which aired tonight on Peachtree TV, here are a few screen shots I made. When I find a link to the show I will post it.
Unfortunately, “Still Standing” is not the first single. Which is probably for the best, because while Monica’s vocals were sooo on point, the track itself wasn’t hitting on nothing.
I’m sorry, but B. Cox is all wrong for this project – as was Jermaine Dupri on the last record. What Mo needs is a producer/songwriter who understands real music – not these children playing behind the boards with their computerized fruity loops or whatever you call that mess.
As one of Mo’s true fans put it:
“Monica, we need neyo soul!!!! Soul R&B. Not pop music over Hip & B Lyrics.”
I still have faith that Mo will deliver a great album though. She sounded so good in the studio! I’m praying that she hooks up with a Ne-Yo or a Denise Rich or even a Babyface. All Mo needs is a hit single and she’ll be back on top where she rightfully belongs!
uh sandra… the 4th and 5th photo caption is all wrong Dear… It MUST say “Monica’s House that she allows Rocko to live-in with her and their kids”
We all know Monica make MORE-MONEY between albums than this Clown will EVER SEE !!!
What the Fluck!? Who wants to see screen shots of a tv show!? This is pathetic.
And Mo don’t need a new producer/songwriter, she need to stop sniffin’ behind that nicca and go to the studio!
“…show everyone what it’s like to be a fiance…” WHO SAYS THAT SH!T!? Here’s what it’s like to be a finance….{tick toc…tick toc…}
dead at #1 i was thinking the same thing! You know Rocko didn’t pay for that! I am ready for her voice all jokes aside
GOT DANG IT !!! WHO IN THE HAIL WANTS TO SEE THIS MESS !! IF WE WANTED TO SEE THIS BULLSCHIT WE WOULD HAVE WATCHED THE SHOW LAST NIGHT … !!!
I’m with HunE .. how in the HAIL do you “SEE” what it’s like to be a Fiancee … do you go to the mall every week and pick out RANGS … Do you buy bridal magazines looking for a Dress … OR Do you Keep having children with some ignant azz negroe who calls you his “peeps” …
GO HEAD WITH THIS MESS !!!!
Is that Rocko in the green?Funny how you notice people when they don’t have too much going on.Good morning by the way.
Sandra Im glad you posted this cause I live In South Carolina and I didn’t see it. I am a Monica Fan and no singer can touch her, she is the best female artist. I am happy for Monica, it doesnt matter if Rocko paid for it or not they are together and she is happy. If you didn’t know they have been together for 7 or 8 years if you were a Monica fan you would have know this.She has two beautiful children and she is trying to do right by them can you all give her a break.
Sandra,
I actually liked the single myself..the show was OK, and I would have tunned in to support her just on GP had this been an actual series.
Her son is so cute and she can SANG. Period
Why is everyone crying in these screen captures??? What the duece happened???
HUNE always on point!!!! Couldn’t agreed more.
i’ve beginning to think this is monica.com and not sandrarose.com…
is it me or does Rocko look like RKelly in the 4th pic?
I don’t see why all the negative comments on her and Rocko…yall commenting on the house not being “theirs” yall commenting on her mentioning her being a fiancee and etc. I mean is it that serious? It’s known that Rocko had money before his album dropped so why all the hate? And it sounds like she was just simply speaking on all aspects of her life…singing, being a mother and being engaged. I mean her interactions with Rocko are included on the show so what’s the big deal? Geez…I just really don’t like when people make assumptions about relationships that they know nothing about first hand.

Its called gossip dear and this is a blog that allows people to state their opinions. That’s why.
make-up does wonder.
AMEN @ Lucy .. and the Chuuuch say WELL !!
When I saw that Monica & Rocko’s house, I thought like hell it is, that is MONICA’s house and rocko stay with her.
lol @ Monica and Rocko’s house….o rly?
that being said, Monica is FLAT OUT gorgeous. Even in the shots where she’s “dressed down”, she looks like a model. her face is just breathtaking.
I really hope she has her stuff together on this cd. I miss her voice- it’s been amazing since she was that little girl w/ the big voice.
Aww yall are so wrong for saying its her house LOL!!! That man has real estate and other side hustles..I’m sure he had money to put on the downpayment of the house and qualify for the mortgage loan. Long as you have a 580 or above credit score, they can qualify for FHA or any conventional loan..even with bad credit..money talks.
He makes a couple thousand per show so Im sure 1 or 2 performances on top of his residuals from his real estate properties can pay for the 3K to 5K a month mortgage payment. This is Atlanta, it aint hard to get a big house and pay the note on that sucka if you got two people bringing in a decent amount of money per month.
Is Rocko a ‘Trap Rapper’? I can’t see how either of them make money, legitimately. I think the music is a cover up. BLACK MAFIA FAMILIY, HUH?

There ARE SOOOOOOOOOOOO Many things Fu*CKED up about that comment…BUT I still can’t seem to stop laughing my azz off!
If ya’ll keep hating on Monica she is not going to let you watch anymore birthday slides at Movies on the Lawn..and she wont be given out any more Rocko autographed CD’s.
Ya’ll better stop before you mess it up for the rest of us
I’m hella weak at #19’s mortgage analysis!
A 580, huh? I wonder if Gucci and Luis Vuitton report your purchases to Transunion, Equifax, and Experian.
@ Lucy, I wasn’t questioning why people were giving their opinions I just said why all the negativity on little things that were pointed out. I know this is a blog where opinions are welcomed and I was just simply stating mine.
Sandra I like still standing. I think that track is FIRE, although I did like it more whe Adontist was just humming the melody before they laid down the track, but I think it’s a great comeback single for Monica and the Luda edition only helped….oh well.
I watched this, and i’m aware of creative editing, but Monica really did come across as a single mom. Her children are gorgeous though!
And Bryan Micheal Cox has a big old head, damn! He was not visually pleasing AT ALL. Actually all of the little music making crew were some ugmos!

Ok .. Ok .. Not only am I lffin OUTLOUD … I snorted a lil when I tried to catch a Breath … HILARIOUS ! ! ! !! !
monica spit out some cute babies. is her brother on crack? he’s looking real crackish. monica better go down to MIA and fuck missy for some banging tracks.
I love the song!! She was crying cause in the song it talks about her seeing her boyfriend kill his self and now talking about the great love she has now!!
After going through all of that she Still Standing!!
still sanding was the ish! great song. the lyrics, the production and her voice. wooooweeeee!!
I hope Monica’s new album much success. I think Monica is a cutie, but she has horrible taste in men. Ain’t nothing cute about Rocko at all…But, as the old adage goes “Love is Blind.”
Lol I think Rocko is cute. I like his swag.
Hi Sandra, I’m glad this was made available. I live in NC. This show was actually alright. There were several moments that I cried right along qith her. Especially when Lil Rocko said, “I wanna ride”. AWWW. But the songwriter Adonis, really hit the nail on the hammer with that song. At the end of the day, Monica is still standing.
^^^^ @ Nekita:
Monica never fell. So why does she need a song that says she’s still standing? That was Adonis’ interpretation of Monica’s life. But he’s never walked in her shoes. He made Mo sound like she can’t let go of the past. That’s not the strong young woman that I know. I’ve been through my share of ups and downs, but I don’t feel the need to announce that I’m still standing because I never fell.
