NEW MONICA..WE BEEN WAITING SO LONG!!










Appropriately enough, Atlanta Grammy winner Monica took a moment before Peachtree TV’s Screen on the Green on Thursday night in Centennial Olympic Park downtown to announce that the local channel will debut a reality show on her this August.

“The Single: Monica” show will be about all it took for the R&B singer to come back with a hit for her upcoming CD, “Lessons Learned.” And it will be executive-produced by its creator James DuBose, who did fellow Atlantan Keyshia Cole’s reality series for BET.

“I really think this is going to be fun,” Monica told Buzz before her announcement. “My main thing I hope to accomplish with this is, well, you know, I didn’t do things in my life in the order people may have felt I should have. But ultimately, I’ve found my balance.

“We’ve found our balance,” she continues, referring to the father of her two sons, rapper/producer Rodney “Rocko” Hill. “As artists, as parents and just as human beings. I hope this shows that.

“It’s going to be a ride, I can tell you that. I’ll probably have a moment or two on there, but I’m more than comfortable with me. I’ve never really been secretive about my life and what I’ve gone through. … So you know, people will see that I live the same type of life of many women with children. I don’t hire a car service when the kids need to go somewhere. There’s no nanny, no chef over here. I take care of home, and then might have to spend 14 hours in the studio. And people will see that. People will see all of Monica, for real.”
