[124sexylady]

Monie is from England and she rapped like she was born and raised in NY!! She was a very good rapper back in the day..too bad she only had a few tracks out there in the early 90's..Miss u Monie!!

[AtomicZero]

Awww I really miss this! by this I mean people rapping about cool stuff! not about how great they are, clothing brands, cars they own, booty, hoes and bling etc... no auto tune and talentless rubbish. I miss this kind of rap

[TheSuperAdamsFamily]

torieharris96. it wasnt kanye's song it was his and jay z song from the new album they BOTH made together

[qwandiddy]

This came out 1990

[torieharris96]

I finally understand Kanye's lyrics in "That's My Bitch"!!!

"no disrespect, I'm not tryna belittle

but my dick worth money I put Monie in the middle"- Kanye West

[BLACKARAZZI]

scrunched up the ledda

[Oldskool1025]

[bcancun123]

[urbanjournalist]

She reminded me of a black hip hop version of "Blossom" remember that show in the early 90's with that girl and Joey. Il iked Monie Love

[GorgeousAndBeyondTV]

y people Always comparing female rappers to Nicki Minaj??

[ggglllllll]

[chocolatekaj123]

[UniqueMonique513]

Haha I caught my self jamin to this..THIS IS MY SHIT...My nick name is Monie in the Middle

[wmhamby]

Classic. Whatever happend to Monie Love. This was out when De La Soul's, "3 feet high and rising" broke big. Played these CD's over and over.

[91Definite]

@wmhamby Monie Love last album was in '93 "In a word or 2". Then in '00 she made some type of EP called "Sice of da Pie" and that was really it of her. She had other dreams she wanted to pursue, but she still is around alot of events of hip hop. She had her own show on a radio station in Philly but she left cause of Young Jeezy they had a argument about hip hop..It's on youtube search it up. But man she was a beastress on the mic though :)p

[DroyD91]

hmmm where have i seen this video before! ;) So was it this or me myself and I released first??

[cigarlounge1]

when girl rappers could rap... fuck nikki minaj

[stratos4101]

@cigarlounge1 its spelled nicki...lmao jk

[cigarlounge1]

@stratos4101 it's cool man. She still sucks...

[swaggedoutrebel]

@cigarlounge1 why in any song by a female rapper nicki minaj come up just what nicki minaj said fuck u dick sucker and listen to monie and enjoy if you want to listen to nicki go to her video damn

[cigarlounge1]

@swaggedoutrebel yo hommie, you're probably a litlle kid, and the internet is a great place to talk shit, but if you don't like my comment you can go fuck yourself. eat a dick faggot.

[wwf8499]

@cigarlounge1 for real yo straight up and down...!!!!

[ratbsf]

@cigarlounge1 Totally! 

[kennedy220]

@cigarlounge1 why take one down to build another up. ive heard nicki spit a rap just like this. matter of fact nikkis stuff is very basic and simple like this old school rap

[cigarlounge1]

@kennedy220 dude, you can't make a comparison between the two. What Nicki does is not called rapping.

I don't know what to call it. All I know is that she dresses funny and can't rap, so the only thing to do is diss her because she sucks!

[kennedy220]

@cigarlounge1 by definition nikki can rap. Rapping (also known as emceeing, MCing, spitting (bars), or just rhyming) refers to "spoken or chanted rhyming lyrics".because you dont like her you say that. left eye dressed weird as well as missy. nikki can at times sound like le trim. it's like saying because i cant stand christina aguileras singing voice she cant sing. but technically she can. dont confuse your dislike for what she can do. its her style of rap and dress

[cigarlounge1]

@kennedy220 Christina Aguilera can't sing either. I'm probably older then you, so if you name new school acts or from 2000 on, I probably won't like any.

[kennedy220]

@cigarlounge1 technically she can sing. maybe you just dont like her voice like i dont. but that doesnt mean she can sing, even at its very basics. im 31. ive heard people say anita baker cant sing. but again they confuse that with dislike sometimes.

[cigarlounge1]

@kennedy220 you gotta a point man, can't argue there...

[SlimmArmstrong]

@cigarlounge1 I TOTALLY agree..but let's give Monie all her props..she's a real MC..easily top 10 of all females, and could roast some of the brothas, too

[Jlady43]

my younger days

[WrongestUser]

I Wish i was on the left or rite or whichever wins the middle

[cupphouse]

Positive native tongue posse vibe, doesnt get much better then this. Nuff respect to the JBs, De La Soul, ATCQ & the whole Zulu Nation. Peaaaace

[sbgal13]

@cupphouse word up!

[M45trKLLr]

I remember seeing her on "Lip Service" & she had huge jugs. Amazing.

[RAP1911]

Her radio show on Backspin radio is the only reason why I subscribe to SIRIUS XM!

[MrDamonpaul]

This shit sucked when it came out, monie was only good on buddy and ladies first her solo stuff was garbage even though she had a great flow

[LOOPWHOLEBEATS]

@MrDamonpaul yeah i agree. looking back on it her flow was deso.

[633390]

i got a new favorite song

[SADMANMUSIC35]

Monie Love wuz my first crush.

[DownloadDoctor1]

I'm so glad I came up in the 90's. Even the pop rap was listenable back then, hell you could cool out to it too along with the hardcore shit with certain songs. Now, it's all garbage.

[ULOOKAFOOL]

I was like 6 years old when this was on the radio..but I remember this song. Lol. However, it's a girl by the name of Nitty Scott who puts me in the mind of Monie. Look her up! She is what should be played on the radio..!

[TheMrEMeat]

Not 80s, 92, i had this on tape. Awesome joint.

[kjamai26]

This was the days when rap was fun & easy to dance to. No profanity, nudity or degrading terms for women.

[skosa928]

to rhyme about real life situations that we all can relate to and execute it lyrically....is genuis!! we was either the one that she was into or the one she wasnt...or you was monie....it still some that can do it...but it is slim pickins for sure....

[BlackGypsyMusic]

Monie!!! Love you girl! Merrily,merrily merrily!

[muuziklvr]

oh the days of having some guys or girls backing you up dancing! The 90s nothing like it

[MrsCarter100]

<3 this song

[finema18]

what! she didn't die

[tyese28]

@1divacougar: She's not dead! You might be thinking of MC Trouble perhaps...BTW, this was my SHIT!!! I idolized her as a tween-ager, I wanted that yellow coat, shoes and hat!

[alisterfolson]

The guy on the tuba around 1:20 looks like Chris Tucker...maybe?!

[datchickcode]

I want er hat!!! :*D

[datchickcode]

OLD SCHOOL IZ THA SH*TT!!!!!!!!!

[LeesTWINsister]

what ever happened to Monie Love?

anybody know?

[platypusboy]

@LeesTWINsister does a radio show in philadelphia, has four kids

[finema18]

@platypusboy yes

[Barbapapa74]

back in the day when the message was more important than the pussy-talk !!!

[DianaandherGuitar]

Wait... People passed NOTES? What's a note? Why didn't they just text? Hah.

[thedivaforver123]

i love this song!!!omg

[jamiegrifter]

I was into crap pop back in the day - had little time for rap but Monie won me over!!!

[bluepeas510]

oh yeaaah! I remember her :) daym I miss those days ..we had the tightest muzik

[JamaicaUK]

The Americans stole her from us British folks lol.

[deniseandread]

that neard guy looks like that reggae singer frankie paul.

[jtmsmooth072088]

Coo' hip hop music. It remawnds me ah da cawtoon, Nadesico. I imagine Ryoko Tsubaru singin' dis sowng.

[alenonline]

WHERE SHE AT????????

[IamWhatIam081]

Why does someone always have to Nicki Minaj in every comment section of every video?

[reel1840]

wake up

[NEELSAN76]

The broad from abroad...Get it? HA HA HA I FUCKING KILL ME!!!

[PIOSystems]

I used to have a crush on her...and I never knew she was British!

But Classic HipHop...and the other chick went on to be on LL's 'Doin it Well'.

[djslimm74]

I used to be IN LOVE with this chick!!

[78thefirstlady]

Remember Nikki D? BAD BITCH I LOVE HER , monie love man shut the fuck up, 90s was the shit!

[zzbkst]

i couldn't wait for rap city to play this video; this is ol school hip hop; for all those who are 25 and younger listen to the song! no cussing, no gangsta crap. just rapping about everyday stuff. its not even corney; this is good rap music; we need to go back to real hip hop; im 32 and im hoping that we soon circle back to music like this

[Shyren09]

dis my shit!! take note.. this is real hiphop....

[JasonWllms55]

i like this...

[MsNikki11]

I took my allowance & bought this (my first) cassette single. OMG! Remember cassette tape 'singles'?!?

[BLAKPEARL69]

@MsNikki11 i ran mine till it popped lol.

[djslimm74]

@MsNikki11 And remember when you wanted the "maxi" single but you didnt have enough so you had to get the regular one with the paper cover??lol!!

[pv2lima]

this is a classic

[mikaris01]

Funny thing is, today the "lover man" got a pot belly and is playing xbox in his girls or mommas basement with no job, ducking child support from his 3 baby mommas. And the nerd she dissed has been hitting the gym, solid muscle, and owns his own multi million dollar company, with more girls than he can count, LOL. Now Monie probably wants him.

[ZigTheFootKing]

NOW THATS Whats UP!!!!

[TruDru1978]

Yo she looks like Neneh Cherry....The only British Female Emcee I ever heard of now Lady Sovereign is in the game, but she been M.I.A. These days!

[arielak91]

[rnsoles34]

[simon10177]

Love the ol school video. The earrings clothes and everything. That's how ma sisters use to dress.

[speno730]

It's not a woman v. woman thing... its a music v. music thing... it was jsut better back then.

[socalsocal88]

I'm about to break out my Jordan 3s and oversized Guess jeans. lol

[bjroberts65]

Monie in the middle She's in the middle and Monie's mothers underneath lickin my BALLS.

[kamalrappeurmkns]

with queen latifah de la soul .monie is the queen of REAL hip hop

[MrSirrah91]

@kamalrappeurmkns why ppl always froget about Roxanne Shante

[kamalrappeurmkns]

@MrSirrah91 who is that roxanne? i never heard about her

i know a lot orf old school rappers de la soul, jungle brotherse, mister lee, vanilla ice, mc hammer, naughty by nature, public ennemy, ice t, ice cube, nwa, but roxanne never?

[MrSirrah91]

@kamalrappeurmkns go to Roxanne Shante, Roxanne revenge .. and than Big Mama.. she killed monie love queen latifah all them female mc from bac than..she was the first female rapper but she use her record label to pay for her school to get her PHD thts probly why u didnt kno

[kamalrappeurmkns]

@MrSirrah91 thanks

i heared her songs she s awesome

but i think she stopped her carrer in rap and went away thats why she s not very famous as queen latifah or salt n pepa for example

if you dont know leila k old school woman rapper i advice you to listen to her she s great

[lovechyl]

@MrSirrah91 I loved Roxanne but no waaay could she hold a torch to Monie. She helped to lay the foundation for Monie and the others and they improved on it.

[MonieLCS]

I love it!!! This def where my my ppl got my nicknames from.. Monie && Moe!! =)

[AgentZer0oo0]

Q-tip you a genius for sampling this!

[4ndyish]

[busybuzzbuzz]

[Jeffrizel1986]

I'm 24 and probably was just a baby when this came out but I enjoy these older hiphop songs so much more than what's out now.. I feel like I grew up with the wrong generation sometimes.. (sigh)

[sexcbull]

[Moniqtee]

[hizangel007]

WHERE'S  MONI NOW?

[SOULJATWIN]

This is an 1989 classic I love monie love she my girl

[upurs007]

The best part about the 80's and 90's is that the female rappers looked good while actually wearing clothes. Fashion may be outdated, but they still looked good.

[jacksonrrr]

The 80's were good but the 90's were better

[NIKIMBO]

Definately a golden age for RAP

[thickthunderthigh79]

Nicki Who?? 

[jredditt84]

@thickthunderthigh79

the fact that you mentioned on this song, shows who really is winning.

[thickthunderthigh79]

@jredditt84 there is absolutely no competition between female rappers then and now. The only reason I even know who Nicki is, is thru my nieces whom are very young. I expect them to know her. So yes I really did mean what I wrote. Idk her last name but ask me about the late 80's early 90's its simple. I would assume she is a winner to the younger genre but not for me.

[DreadlocksMo123]

@thickthunderthigh79 , let me finish the rest 4 u brah, nicki the hoe who sucked my elongated penis every single night lol,serioustly brah the bitch is whacked god plzz release remy ma & have nicki minaj replaced her
