ASCAP Set To Honor Monica

Published: Monday 7th Nov 2011 by Rashad

R&B beauty Monica is among the illustrious honorees set to be honored by ASCAP (the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers) this Wednesday.  The event, the 3rd annual Women Behind the Music Series, was designed to honor women in all facets of the music industry – in front and behind the scenes.

Scheduled to honor the ‘Don’t Take It Personal’ diva November 9th in New York City, other honorees include ‘Tightrope’ performer Janelle Monae and more.  The two join an impressive list of ASCAP honorees whose past recipients include Kelly Rowland, Melanie Fiona, and others.

The news comes shortly after Mrs. Brown unveiled her new album cover and revealed her new album ‘New Life’ can be expected in February 2012.

  17. Theman November 7, 2011

    Congrats she deserves it. She’s very talented.

  18. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) November 8, 2011

    Yeah, ok…Sadly, this isn’t that much of a big honor 😳 I still wish she had won a Grammy for ‘Everything To Me’ but she had stiff competition 🙁 Anyway, I hope she will deliver with this album because the singles are nowhere near the level of ‘Everything To Me’ and ‘Love All Over Me’ 😕

  19. B_STANNING AND LOVING ADELE November 8, 2011

    GET IT MONICA……..SHE DESERVES IT

  20. Steffon November 8, 2011

    Good for her but why is she getting honored? Meaning what are the qualifications and achievements must you have?

  21. antertain November 8, 2011

    Bright Star with industry longevity.
    Monica is well deserving and glad the fruits of her work in front and behind the music is being honoured.

    Congrats and keep up the excellent work.

  22. Well… November 8, 2011

    Album push back? I expected that. This project has been handled soo poorly. No promo, lackluster/BORING singles, and album art the looks like it was shot in her bathroom. Monica is suppose to be a veteran in the game and she’s not acting like it.TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR CAREER! I really hope she switches it up with the next single instead of going with Missy which would be soo predictable. But Congrats on your award!

  23. Jay1 November 10, 2011

    “Well” that was a back hand compliment. Monica has limited control when it comes to marketing, etc….. I have to disagree with your statement about her 2 singles. Neither are lackluster or boring. They are both getting a lot of play on the radio. And have placed #1 and #2 respectively on BET. Monica’s 90 vibe is very familiar and true R&B. Congrats on receiving recoginition by ASCAP, you deserve it.
