Sorry. Yes, that's pretty much the premise. She starts off talking about how she was on top of the world, how she's in love with a guy and how hard it was for her ex-fiance to commit suicide in front of her.

After they covered that, it was mostly her discussing the songs she has recorded so far for the new album and how she is looking for the real HIT. It was cool to see her manager discussing the album with the record company and how they only wanted 10 songs for the project.

I mean she looks great, still sounds great...but she just can't get any hits. Maybe she needs to get away from the boring sound of "everybody else" and try something different but true to herself.

Thanks, I ended up seeing this first episode on a video streaming website. I'm just surprised her album wasn't finished. It seemed like they were looking for "the hit" back in February, then they found "Still Standing". I guess they made it the premise for the forthcoming series.

How can she? All she knows is manufactured music. Her whole career has been based around it.

Monica has bored the living shit outta me since she first dropped. Had zero interest then, really don't care now. But good luck to her if she still has an audience @ this point She just seems real typical to me, she's never put out a song I've liked

I watched the premier episode and there was nothing that really grabbed me but i'm willing to give it a chance and see all of what she's planning for her new CD. I will say I am somewhat dissappointed that she is sampling the entire musical track for Evelyn Champainge (sp) King's "Betcha She Don't Love You". I mean dayum...those entire song Mo?


Her little boys are absolutely darling. I dunno bout this fiance of hers...I know they got history and shit but do he got any money? She can't be raising the kids and payin' all the bills.

She looks fab tho as always. I can't believe she had her manager/cousin un-contracted for 10 dang years!!! Whew WEE that's some TRUST!!

I think the show was good. I think it's going to be more emotional than a lot of other reality shows.

The sampling of "Betcha" doesn't bother me. A lot of people do that to keep the song alive. I don't have a problem with that part. I just have a problem when the writers are pretty uncreative. The sampling doesn't bother me. A lot of big hits have ripped the song completely. Hell, two of Janet's biggest hits were samples.

U didn't like "The Boy Is Mine"? What about the period song, "Don't Take It Personal"? I loved the remix of "Don't Take It Personal".

The best reality show on BET was Keyshia Cole The Way It Is.

I know u didn't just say that. That was nothing but a constant argument and fight.

Real R&B songs seem to be suffering right now.....
