As smooth as it can get!

After a longer break in the last three years a lot has happened with Monica. That's nice, and "Still Standing" was a top album by a woman who has influenced and shaped the RnB nineties significantly. Their hit "The Boy Is Mine" on the side of Brandy was a worldwide hit, which came somewhat too early for Monica. They disappeared shortly thereafter, unfortunately, a bit out of the picture. The private life suffered, and the pressure weighed too heavily on their shoulders. Gone are the long party nights, now it has arrived in the "New Life" and has found the strength to leave their emotions at sensationally good out productions. First off, the big surprise: There is again a song with Brandy, which was released as a single (It all belongs to me).

Much of the album (Deluxe version with 15 tracks) was produced by Rico Love and Missy Elliott, overlooking (start of production was already the end of 2010, the release was postponed several times), also on board the Legend "Jermaine Dupri", which is also in the nineties has celebrated his greatest successes and among others Janet, Da Brat and numerous others helped to fame. The album is very very quiet, there is no dance floor hits on this very personal work. It's actually almost more than Soul RnB, but her voice has not lost its luster. We must not forget that Monica is only 32 years old! After a failed marriage, she is now happily married again, and this is reflected clearly in their texts again, where it comes to family, happiness, contentment and humility. The simple things they touched in life, she maintains perfect and is therefore likely to appeal to a wider audience. Besides Brandy next to rapper Rick Ross WALE is also at the start. The track "Anything" is not Uptempo in the real sense, but the fastest of the album number. Much piano, much melody, a lot of soul and feeling that Monica is in 2012 - Schön!
