She had more than that over 5-6 years and she came thru Heavy D :mjcry: right behind Soul For Real...the last class at Uptown :salute:




Monifah can walk through a mall in 90% of the major cities in North America without someone asking her for an autograph. No way should she have an Unsung episode. That's almost like giving Gina Thompson or Nicole Wray their own episode.

nah. she had a handful of hits.

I agree that shes not unsung material tho, even tho I'm glad she got one.

they need to bring back that "life after" show. cuz theyre really lowering the bar right now. that's not a knock on monifah's talent, but ya know.

The only song I remember she made was "I miss you". I'm literally begging for a Toni Tony Tone' episode or at least Another Bad Creation. Nobody asked for a Monifah episode.

that alone is 2 different hits within itself, with the remix being a completely different tracks.
then she dropped "you".
the Motown album had "touch" song.
that's 4 at least, between 2 albums. I don't remember "i can tell" being much of a hit. but it was dope.

but yea, they need to bring back "life after". I know chicks like Adina howard & karyn white and dudes like Ginuwine & Christopher Williams gotta be pissed at the names getting on unsung nowadays.

its gonna be a good ep tho. she had a ton of baggage that took her out the game. I'm hoping AZ & McGruff get some shine too.

Did any top the charts? I'd be surprised if she ever went platinum. Now I have to watch the episode tonight to see what she's done.

I'm sure she at least went gold off the first joint.

she wasn't a big sales singer. she was one of those people that you tune in to watch kill it on BET, that didn't get many spins on MTV. I don't remember seeing monifah on MTV at all. maybe the o.g. "i miss you" got play. I dunno.

her style was a bit too black for the mainstream and didn't reasonate that much with hip-hoppers that dipped & dabbed in r&b.

but still, shes not unsung material. if she would've kept her pace for a few more albums, then sure. but nah.

she had more than one hit.....its crazy to me though that touch it was a bigger hit than i miss you..but the touch it video :dame:..sheeeyyyiiitttttt :whoo:

but yeah i remember being real disappointed that she dabbled with women and hearing that the wnba player she dated at one time used to beat her ass...and also her daughter disapproves of her lesbian leanings too :russ:..fukkery

the lesbian chit done revitalized monifah's career.

in a way, I'm glad that a chick that I had a lil crush on back in the day, isn't getting dikked down right now by some hairy dude while I talk about her.

Im sorry, Monifah is not hardly UNSUNG. She must have asked the producers for an episode. She aint even that interesting.

Next Pebbles and Karen White gonna be Unsung too?

Unsung needs to get its act together. They putting anybody on there now. Kwame wasnt Unsung either. They just some artists that came and went. No big deal

the bias in me, has me anticipating this episode. i cant lie.

but yea theyre putting "life after" caliber artists on unsung now.

luckily for you, they already did a "life after" on karyn white.
i can see them doing a pebbles episode with most of it being about TLC and her other shenanigans.:laugh:
