Few names in R&B can boast the legendary career and catalogue that Monica possesses.
It’s especially fitting, then, that the singer has been named the recipient of the Lady of Soul honor at the forthcoming Soul Train Awards.
Full story below…
Organizers for the November 29 event announced the news moments ago.
As well as being presented with the award, Monica will also be performing.
The GRAMMY-winner joins previously announced performers Brandy, Babyface, CeeLo Green, Charlie Wilson, Ella Mai, Jazmine Sullivan, Lucky Daye, and Smokey Robinson.
Hosted by Tichina Arnold and Tisha Campbell, this year’s Soul Train nominations sees H.E.R. lead with 8, Chris Brown following with 7, and Beyonce and Young Thug securing 6 each.
The show will simulcast on BET, BET Her, VH1 and MTV2 at 8 PM ET.
Who?
No who are you? Monica is winning. You? TRASH
This is laughable and so is the photo. (Terrible photo. I’m sure you guys could have found a more flattering photo of her.)
Faaaaaaag
monica look just like BUGGS bunny w. carrott wig on…
Aww, congrats. I’m glad someone is letting Goonica step foot on their stage. Lord knows the Grammys and Billboard won’t let her
Well deserved! I can’t wait to see her and Brandy. Soul Train is fir the classics
Congrats. I think I k Michelle and Keyshia Cole would do perfect tributes
Good for Monica. Her and Brandy are still relevant. Numbers don’t lie.
But haters do, boo😉
No they aren’t
Well deserved!!! The lineup is top notch as well.
We STAN a beautiful strong QUEEN!!!!!! This is much overdue but we will accept it Soul Train. Like Mo said “find em in the comments, while we shine like comets yeahhh!!!!! Monica is LEGENDARY whether y’all try not to agree or not…y’all are too old to still be holding on to 90s drama…don’t have have children now? (Probably not cause…..Nevermind…enjoy y’all day tho 😘)
Flop
Monica is so deserving of this award❤️💜💙🥰😍💪🏽
Yessss deserved and a bit overdue! Another win for Monica another L for the haters
Come through Mo!!!! So glad they’re giving Monica her flowers now!! I’m super excited ❤️❤️❤️
Very well deserved & long overdue. What I hate is how Monica’s legacy is constantly being downplayed by the industry & critics. Monica has hits galore & has done several things for the evolvement of R&B.
This fan from Canada is so happy and proud of Monica. She remained true to who she is and released music according to how she felt. While authenticity might have denied her coveted awards, it got her a legion of fan that have remained with her.
This is a great moment for Monica as it has been long time coming. I truly hope that the industry continues to bless her with praise while we still have her.
Miss Thang is a R/B legend.
Monica. I don’t need any more reason to watch.
The only has two hits….That PMS song…One of Dem Dayz and So Gone. Her warbly wobbly voice is lackluster in this day and age.
About time. Monica kept it classy always. Never got naked b*** stay true and is a true vocalist and artist unlike todays female artist who were groomed and taught to be water hoses. She had so many hits. she was the youngest artist to have 3 # 1s in a row on the r&b charts. she was 12 sounding like an adult and well deserved of this award tired of seeing popularity awards .Soul train the only one who always get it right .Google the charts and listen to her songs that wasn’t released as singles and still was hits.25 yrs later she still getting radio play with her latest single and on television. sound like a winner to me. if you can out sing her or got more money than her post it. we will wait .crickets .Congrats monica . stand on the haters necks
