When she came out with this song, I instantly purchased the cassette as I could relate to the lyrics. Before watching the video, I thought it was strictly about a romantic relationship gone bad. Imagine my surprise when I saw the video and it was about an absentee father. My 16 year old mind was amazed as related to the video concept, too!
She had it…. They did’nt do her right at that label. She was literally Brandy & Monica fused🔥💯💪🏾 All because she didn’t have a Clive Davis like machine. Always have a spot in my heart for her. She was dope💯💐‼️🔥💪🏾
Ive been looking for this song for about 20 years and i just found it this morning. I used to ask around, look online, google different artists in the 90's. Low and behold i found it today and broke down i can't front. 96 was a dope year for me and i dont need to search for anything. I am madd gassed putting this on repeat. God bless my era!!
I've been trying to find this song for a long time. I am glad that I clicked on every song, otherwise I would not have found this video. Her voice is amazing, I also love this song. I'm here on Friday May 10, 2019. Who else is here in 2019?
Reason why I brought the album was lots Boyz were featured on her sound track for don’t be a menace!. And she drop some good gems on her album I gave her five mics cause it’s a classic .
Her voice was strong probably the best among her peers (Monica, Brandy, Aaliah, Mya )and definitely had the looks but she came out last in a crowded field. She had some serious catching up to do in the popularity department. My pet peeve is all the songs I heard from her(this one not so much) were samples from other recent hit songs other artist made popular. That's just lazy and taking the easy non creative way out.
I liked her as artist, she had great vocals. It's sad that around this time, Brandy, Monica and Aaliyah were rising the charts, too many competitors. I do also believe the video might have been too strong for listeners she should have focused on a partner instead of using an absentee father.
I Love This Song So Much 🥰🎶💗 Oh Yh In Case If No One Didn't Noticed, *Mona Lisa* Played Special Guest On The 90s Nickelodeon Show *"Kenan & Kel: Season 1, Episode 10"* As Amy.
If we are being honest: She was aesthetically appealing, had chops... BUT.... She didn't have hits. She didn't have songs. This is her best song and what Brandy, Monica or Aaliyah hit song can this song compete with??.... Exactly. She needed better writers. Her career would have gone WAY different. Give her "Angel of Mines" and see where she would have landed.
Mona & Monica had similar singing styles. Unfortunately Monica beat her to the punch in terms of album releases & success, thereby eclipsing her shine & fame. I believe mona was a teenage prodigy of 16-17 here in this video. 🤔
She went 2 college. She released a jam song "Peach" 🍑 on da "Woo" soundtrack. Obtained a Degree. Then sang da Hook on "Girls" by Cam'ron. Then disappeared.
From what I've read, she's living in Oregon raising her family. Her last appearance and major feature was on Cam'Ron's "Girls" song. Thats her singing the hook and she's in the video!
She has a nice voice, but her vocal arrangement for songs is really bad. I have no idea what this song is about and I heard it. There is nothing catchy.

Whoever Dislikes This Video... That Means They Don't Care About Real R&B Music. PERIOD!!!
Do she have any music after this...or live performance
Ronnie Head Yes
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
You can't sang 90s RB without a trembling bottom lip...man I love it
Lol, the 90s had so many talented young artists. I miss this era of music
@@tangemclemore8486 Same!
Yessssss 🤣😆
Lol
LOL. You couldn't tell me ✋🏾😤 I WASN'T in my own music video when I was in my room 🛏️! I used 2 practice ALL of my faces in the mirror 🪞 😆!

God miss the 90s. Just was a vibe
Tell me about it 😢, like you said .......THE VIBE.
My high school years. It was a very dangerous time, but a very fun time to be black. "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. . . ."
💯🎯

Me too bro. Great minds think alike...
I'm glad u rediscovered it, bro!
A mix between Aaliyah and tamia
with a little bit of Brandy
Mona Lisa’s soul-stirring vocals! What a true gem!

2020 boo it still knocks
2021
Back when singers didn’t do lap dances, twerk, and throw it back. They just sang.
It was right around the corner though, if not the female rappers(Foxy Brown Lil Kim) definitely were out smh.
just saaaaang! At 16 years old!!
That satanic culture took over.
Man I had the biggest crush on her! She was one of my favorites in the 90s r&b era! Her voice is awesome!
This was my SONG IN 6TH GRADE!! I LOVED MONA LISA!!! INCREDIBLE VOICE!!
Monalisa is so dope I always love all her music it's just sad how her career was cut short very underrated🥰🙌🏾💯👏🏾☝🏾
I agree 👍🏾
Said reminds me of Tamia
man she really had IT. i wish she was able to blow up like she should have
What a jam, damn Mona.
That light skinned girl that all boys was chasing back in the 90’s
Guilty
Her and Aaliyah
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😩😩😩😩she was so fine.
Yea she fine…..
I still have the pictures of me and her when I met her at a concert in Dayton Ohio Beautiful person beautiful voice
She had such a beautiful and mature voice for a 16 year old. I wonder happened to her. The talent was definitely there
She really did just like Tracie Spencer
I think she released a new album this year called Mona Lisa DJay
@@darricktopofthehitlist8592 I just looked at it. That doesn't look like the same Mona Lisa 🤔🤔
@@jasminehill6312
Keep in mind make up and that video is really old.Very low quality.
Darrick Top of the Hit List I dnt think that’s her. It doesn’t look like her . But it sounds good. I’m do more research.
2024 still bumping this gem
Bad bish Mona voice is legendary 🥰
Oh Man this was my Jam back in the day !❤️🎤🎶
I bought this single(when you could buy singles)..this song is still dope😎✌
The entire album was good
I was JUST reminiscing before I clicked on this video like “ I remember when I was a teenager and could only afford singles” 🤣
Me too. You can't be wasting my time was on the other side . .
Classic 90's, man I miss those days!
Thanks
voice of a goddess, truly
I remember this videos and i bought her album. She was one of those artists that you wanted to see longevity in the industry.
Reason why I brought the album was lots Boyz were featured on her sound track for don’t be a menace!. And she drop some good gems on her album I gave her five mics cause it’s a classic .
I was so pressed when my Mom bought me her cd...lol...I loved her!! I wonder what she's doing now
I think she released a new album this year called Mona Lisa DJay
She should have had way more longevity!
Only 1 album
Her voice was strong probably the best among her peers (Monica, Brandy, Aaliah, Mya )and definitely had the looks but she came out last in a crowded field.

Wooooow!!! She is beautiful and very talented. I wonder what she's up to now
She does.👍🏽
I wanted to get more music from her
I thinks she would did real well with the Neptune's and star trak
Summer 96
Beautiful music, beautiful girl, talented actress. I miss her music so much. I will never understand what happened to her career.
She will always be my fav and she a Scorpio like me 🥰
Ahhhh... the nineties. Some memorable music.
My god this was my jam... Such a classic 🔥🔥
Sweet nineties song. Reminds me of when I was a girl.
I was just singing this song in my head lol one of my favorites!
needs more recognition SMH
Still my jam in 2022…..
Loved her 🎵🎵
2021 and still on repeat
2020 wow the 90s were so good
Right this was mu $hit
STILL LISTENING 2022🔥❤️
Bro! That era....after thos 112
Music like this reminds me of Sacramento County Juvenile Hall Sunday night Slow Jams with r dub
💙💪🏾the ending
I liked her as artist, she had great vocals. It's sad that around this time, Brandy, Monica and Aaliyah were rising the charts, too many competitors. I do also believe the video might have been too strong for listeners she should have focused on a partner instead of using an absentee father.
Omg this is my all time favorite song by Mona Lisa🥰 wonder where she is she’s been hiding out . I played her album out as a kid I miss her!!
I always loved this tune, right from day 1
2021
I Love This Song So Much 🥰🎶💗
Oh Yh In Case If No One Didn't Noticed, *Mona Lisa* Played Special Guest On The 90s Nickelodeon Show *"Kenan & Kel: Season 1, Episode 10"* As Amy.

06/2022 🔥❤️🔥🔥❤️🔥
This should have been in gta San Andreas
Where is she we need her back
My girl what happened to her Monica and Brandy still doing there thing what about her?
It's Still A Hard Question to Answer...
She didnt have the right people behind her like Brandy and Monica.
She went 2 college.
She released a jam song "Peach" 🍑 on da "Woo" soundtrack.
Obtained a Degree. Then sang da Hook on "Girls" by Cam'ron. Then disappeared.
@@MichaelJonesJr
I think she released a new album this year called Mona Lisa DJay
@@chancest.thomas5160
I think she released a new album this year called Mona Lisa DJay
So what producer killed her career?
Probably the one she didn't want to sleep with
R.Kelly
Does anyone knows her instagram
Sounds like a babyface composition.
What happened to her ... ❤️
We don't even know...
@@MichaelJonesJr She's so dope ..... I love her Everything
From what I've read, she's living in Oregon raising her family. Her last appearance and major feature was on Cam'Ron's "Girls" song. Thats her singing the hook and she's in the video!
The video ain't showing
Yes It Is
She look grown asf here for a 16 year old.
Right
😆 I said the same thing
@@jayluv3956 same with Aaliyah. She could have easily passed for 20
She still fine at 40
@@dicomohio4743 really you've seen her recently?
The video is outta sync!!
Before Aaliyah there was Mona Lisa...and before anyone argues look at her other videos. Dress, dance style, etc
Ummm Aaliyah came out in 1994, Mona Lisa came out collaborating with The Lost Boys and dropped her solo album in 1996.
@@leonation89 thank you I was about to correct him. Yes aliyah was first I remember buying age ain't nothing but a number back in 1993
Girl 🤦🏾♀️....Aaliyah came out 2-3 whole years before Mona Lisa came out. So, "Try Again."
Kinda get mya vibes from her
Terence Thomas before Mya was Mona!
Probably the "Biracial" element.
Joey Aloha Healing Zone Probably
sounds like 702
She has a nice voice, but her vocal arrangement for songs is really bad. I have no idea what this song is about and I heard it. There is nothing catchy.
