Album Spotlight: Monica - After The Storm

-
I will admit when Monica's unreleased album; "All Eyez On Me" leaked out; I wasn't interested. I thought it was her worst album and I see why it was never released. There were a handful of songs though that were saved in favor for "After The Storm" and those songs fit perfectly.

Monica just revamped "All Eyez On Me" with the help of Missy Elliott who produced song of the strongest songs here including first single; "So Gone" and my personal favorite; "Knock Knock". By the time this album was released Monica was definitely back on her A game and it was as if she hadn't missed a beat.

The great opening track; "Set It Off" is another Missy Elliott produced song and it is quite irresistible. It will definitely get the party started. There are the ballads that are excellent and any of them could of been singles at any given point. One song that is not to be missed and is another favorite of mine is the Jermaine Dupri produced; "U Should've Known Better". There was even a video featuring Monica's then boyfriend Young Buck.

This is definitely one of my favorite Monica albums and to be honest Monica has been pretty consistent over the years. I know she had been dogged over "The Makings Of Me" but the album wasn't as bad as people made it out to be. That album had some jams on it!

You all, my readers, my visitors; my supporters; you have made this post one of the most successful posts on my blog. I kept wondering what it was about this post, that made it so successful; one word: JANET! The fact that Janet has new music on the way makes this post even more of a hot topic. As its been said before, no one sings about sex quite like Janet Jackson. Her songs, ooze with the right amount of sexuality perfect for a night of steamy sex. Take a look back at a number of songs Janet is responsible for delivering her in trademark breathy delivery. I took the liberty of adding a few other songs that didn't make the list before.  "Warmth" This song begins with echos of Janet saying "...in my mouth". By then you should already know what this song is about. Janet sings about the "warmth" of her mouth and how she pleases her lover; Jermaine Dupri at the time. This is a very sensual song and it is one of the most explicit Janet has ever record...
