New Song: Monica – ‘Still Standing (ft. Ludacris)’ (Full)

Published: Friday 15th Aug 2008 by Sam

Monica - 'Still Standing (ft. Ludacris)' (Full) R&B songstress Monica’s latest single surfaced last week in preview form; today, owever, the full version has materialized.

Put simply, I’m really liking this one. The Bryan Michael Cox produced mid-tempo manages to serve up a hard-hitting beat which is still able to compliment Monica’s vocals, while not compromising her ‘sound’. Ludacris’ feature works surprisingly well too. Great track.

Hit or Miss?

    It has grown on me more than the first time I heard it but I’m still wanting more from Monica. I don’t think this is by far some of her best work. I really liked that Stargate track she did on that reality show. I really think she’s gonna bring it on this new album nonetheless.

    I LOVE IT !!!

    The songs nice. I think at this point in the game I like to see monica write some of her own hits. These new comers are able to write perform and dance circles around the monica’s and brandy’s of the industry. I hope she assembles a good team of writers to fill the album with much better material then her last two attempts. SHe as always performs well with what shes handed the beat is one of b C** finest if nothing else.

    I also like this song. I like luda but I think he wasn’t needed

    Love the song! I have a question, isn’t this just her BuZZ single? I thought it was decided that it wasnt’ her official single.

    This better be her first single. The song makes a statement. It is MONICA'S ANTHEM. The people who have been supporting her from day one know her story, and alot of us if not all of us can relate to "going through". I'm sure I'm not the only one who's been through something or knows someone who's been through something that should have broken me/them,but in adverse made me/them much stronger. This song speaks to me. I almost cried along with Monica when I saw 'The Single'. She gave her team a hard way to go,but they came through for her. B.C** produced a CRAZY track (you can get lost in it;and that's a good thing)and ADONIS! Where did this man come from? He is a GIFTED writer. Absolutely incredible. Monica is and will always be an R&B front-runner. Her voice is unparalleled. I can't wait for this album. I can't wait for an official 1st single (which I'm praying is "Still Standing"). I can't wait for a video. I just can't wait. Wow, I just realized something;I'm excited about music again. Thank you Monica. Thank you.

    just a heads up..alot of UK internet providers are blocking z-share so u might want to consider using an additional site as well

    wow. Mariah Carey’s influence on the industry never ends. an inspirational ballad, a heavy hip-hop beat… Bryan Michael C**… right down to the Ludacris collabro. that’s straight Mariah.

    I DONT EVEN LIKE MONICA…BUT IMMA HAVE TO GET THIS CD WHEN IT COMES OUT JUST FOR THIS SONG!

  26. Shane August 15, 2008

    I’ve had this joint on repeat for the past two hours. Amazing beats and rhythm and Monica’s vocals are spot-on. Luda goes hard and assists Monica in, I guess, proving her point.

    This song is amazing!

    Monica is bringing back what R&B is missing….SOUL. After hearing this song I feel like i’ve just been baptized in the name of Jesus. Can I get a AMEN?! LOL. This song has substance & depth…there is nothing silly about staying true to oneself & despite any obstacles in life…despite the pure hate & evil of people wanting you to fail- i’m going to stand, my head will never hit the floor. Let it go & let god in. What!?! This is more than a song its an ANTHEM. This song is on repeat! This is SANGING….

  28. mielgoute August 15, 2008

    Vocally Monica is the TRUTH!!! I love the dark rock heavy beats..She would be a fool not to run with this..I’d buy it …Love it!!

    Correction…Beyonce has KILLED the game with her childish, materialistic, self absorbed lyrics…..

    YAY MONICA bring back real music. Beyonce watered down the game to the point where anyone is welcome…..step it back up MONICA, BRANDY

  34. Anonymous August 15, 2008

    Its cool, but I want to hear her sing a love song like “Before You Walk Out Of My Life” or “Angel Of Mine”. These joints with her giving us her bio are beginning to sound repetitive…its almost like she is trying to give up a Mary J. Blige vibe…

  35. Anonymous August 16, 2008

    this song is hot, and the message is her storry but also made for other people to relate to it to and thats what music needs right now so im glade to see that monica is back and ready to kill. please stop making comments about people such as beyonce and all of that cuz its not needed, this section of the blog is for monica and ur comments of what u think of the song not about what people may think of beyonce cuz dont sleep on bee cuz shes gonna kill just as well as monica when they cds drop,this is gonna be a great quarter for music.

    Monica is the queen!! Omg this is what music is! beyownce take notes. And to the person who said Monica need to write her own music I disagree…she’s a singer once she is bringing out good music not the fast food ish that beyownce brings out is all good!!

    Funny how Brandy’s Right Here (Departed) track, is the same pop fluff garbage Monica said she does not want on her new album (in her show, the Comeback. Monica is more vocally talented and has real life material a la Mary J/ Keshia Cole. Brandy has always followed trends and “pop and b”, a la Rihanna.. Pop garbage always wins though 🙂 MONICA is gonna get her due props one day, thats where tha real SANGING is!!!

    Monice is the truth. I loooove this song! I am so happy to see her back in the game, it needs her. I love the song, cannot wait for the video. Bryan Michael C** did a fabulous job on the beat. Monica you deserve all the blessings that you get this year, and in the future. You have been through a lot,and no one will ever understand that.
    Thanks for always blessing us with real, classic, timeless music.

    After listening to Still Standing I’m speechless! When the beat dropped to Monica’s vocals it’s what I’ve been waiting to hear all year! A real song with real depth! Can’t wait for the album!
