Monica, Babyface Take Part In Reggae Rhythm Festival

-
Grammy award winning singer, actress and entrepreneur Monica is set to heat up the inaugural Reggae Rhythm & Blues Festival in the Big Apple this Labor Day weekend. The soulful siren will take the stage with ten-time Grammy award winner Kenny ‘Babyface’ Edmonds as the festival’s Rhythm & Blues headliners at Roy Wilkins Park in Queens on Sunday, September 4th.

Monica, whose latest single “Anything (To Find You)” with Rick Ross and Lil Kim is burning its way up the Billboard R&B/Hip Hop chart, established herself as a musical force when her break-out hit “Don’t Take It Personal” topped the R&B/Hip Hop chart in 1995. At the tender age of 15, she became the youngest female ever to have two singles back-to-back hit #1 on the Billboard R&B chart. To date she has sold more than 20 million albums worldwide, earning a Grammy Award for 1998’s “The Boy is Mine” with Brandy, and a spot on Billboard’s Top Artists of the Year chart in 2010. She has been featured on television sitcoms Living Single, Beverly Hills 90210, and Felicity, and in 2009 landed a reality series of her own, Monica: Still Standing, on Black Entertainment Television (BET). Her 2010 album Still Standing debuted at #2 on the Billboard Top 200.

In addition to Babyface Edmonds, Monica will share the Reggae Rhythm & Blues stage with Dancehall superstar Mavado, acclaimed Roots Reggae crooner Tarrus Riley, and Soca King Machel Montano. The ‘King of the Dancehall’ Beenie Man will make a special Reggae Rhythm & Blues appearance to collect a lifetime achievement award.

“Monica is great addition to Reggae Rhythm & Blues - she has a soulful, yet sassy style that crosses several genres,” says Reggae Rhythm & Blues organizer Robert ‘Bobby’ Clarke, CEO of Irie Jam Media Group. “Monica is Soul/R&B singer with a Hip Hop edge, which provides the perfect balance between Babyface Edmonds and Mavado. She fits in perfectly.”

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...
