@Theman you are right you cant forget your audience and that is why I love Monica. Although she did not have a huge commercial success she found it in her audience, and worked hard to achieve it. Her videos were not lame, they had concept and her songs had real meaning, and now most of all she can SING! Not taking anything away from anyone else R&B artist just need to be creative and work hard at maintaining themselves in this business, plain and simple!
