Their vocals and arrangements set the stage for even BRITNEY SPEARS vocal arrangements (of course the songwriters did as well). I could cry how much this album has INSPIRED me.Īnd the vocal talent of Monica……WOW! It gives me goosebumps! Put respect on songstress Monica! Her and Debra Killings sound AMAZING together. The album is just as fresh and fly today as it was in 1995.
#MONICA MISS THANG ALBUM COVER PLUS#
Plus she has like 4 or 5 platinum singles and 8 Top 10 singles with 3 being 1s. Dre wrote and played instruments on Miss Thang….it is a project blessed with so much talent it’s crazy. Early in her career Monica was very successful 'Miss Thang' and 'The Boy Is Mine' albums both were triple platinum. Something is unique about the sound of “Miss Thang”! Talent coming straight off “The Chronic” sessions with Dr. The look and feel of the album….super producer Dallas Austin moving to New York being set up officially as an executive by Clive Davis and Monica stepping out her comfort zone shooting iconic images for the album in New York is a freshness actually in the FEELING of the album. It’s so weird but I always have seen the recording sessions while listening to this album even as a very young teen. She followed it with a series of successful albums, including the global bestseller The Boy Is Mine (1998) as well as the number-one albums After the Storm (2003), The Makings of Me (2006) and Still Standing (2010).
Partly because it was considered an unspoken 'PMS Anthem,' but mainly because the big-voice and assertive delivery came courtesy of. In a decade where artists prided themselves on lyrical candidness, 'Dont Take it Personal (Just One of Dem Days)' still managed to stand out from other songs. When I listen to the album I literally SEE the now legendary trio of exceptional talent that is Dallas Austin, Monica and Debra Killings. Monica rose to prominence after she signed with Rowdy Records in 1993 and released her debut album Miss Thang two years later. SoulBounce’s Class Of 1995: Monica ‘Miss Thang’. The beautiful Monica! Monica’s “Miss Thang” is a hallmark in contemporary R&B/Pop.
