Monica - The First Night (1998)

I went out and got a white tight top and khaki pants because of this video. Sure did.

That Diana Ross "Love Hangover" sample into Jermaine Dupri’s beat? UNMATCHED. No one makes songs with a beginning, middle, and end anymore. "The First Night" told a whole story about boundaries and knowing your worth. We need this kind of songwriting back! #ClassicRNB 🎹🔥

Man this song hard asf jd a genius

They made her cover her TRU tattoo 😭

@FBA_MasterJEDI 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯

This is my favorite music video of hers. The SAMPLE on this song, “Love Hanger”, is amazing on this track. JD doesn’t miss, nor do Monica’s vocals.

I recently made an attempt to perform the move at the start of the video where they dropped to their knees and….let’s just say MY knees had a strong reaction: “IJKYL!” 😂

The choice of songs to sample to make this jam was epic.

16 came out I’m deep in love with guy

👌

This is the one. They took that "Love Hangover" beat and they flipped that.... 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

My personal favourite

Love the cadence of the chorus. ❤️

We bumping this in today’s music we hear u Monica on those high notes 🙋‍♂️😘
