New Video! Monica “Until It’s Gone”

Posted on 26 Oct 2011 at 7:03am

I’ve got to admit, if I had a dollar for everytime I said “you’re gonna miss me when I’m gone” I’d be able to tremendously put a dent in the national debt!  Anyway, kudos to my girl Monica, she has another hit on her hands with the personification of one of my favorite saying.

“Until It’s Gone” is her new video starring actors Brian  White (“I Can Do Bad All By Myself”) and Malinda Williams (“Soul Food”) who play a couple who, while fighting over his infidelity, get into a car accident.

Monica spends the rest of the video letting Brian know what’s really important.

Boyz II Men are marking the anniversary of their debut record, 1991′s “Cooleyhighharmony,” by recording old and new tracks for a retrospective record called “Twenty.”

But only group members Nathan Morris, Wanya Morris and Shawn Stockman are taking part in the project. McCary, who left the group in the early 2000s, was to return for the album, but it didn’t work out.

“We reached out to Michael to be on this record,” Nathan Morris told the New York Daily News, before explaining that McCary, in his view, didn’t want to put in the effort to reunite.

What if your man wanted to split up because of your (natural) hair?
