Ron 'Mr. Biggs' Isley to go solo on next album



Going solo - Mr. BiggsWith their latest Isley Bros release 'Body Kiss' fairing so well on the Billboard album charts and gaining sales in the record shops, Ronald aka 'Mr. Biggs' Isley, has decided will venture out alone on the next album with a solo collaboration effort that will feature super pop songwiter/producer extrordinaire Burt Bacharach (Dionne Warwick, The Carpenters, James Ingram and numerous other artists).

Ronald’s album looks to bring a soulful twist to a number of pop standards, including the Bacharach-penned 'Raindrops Keep Fallin’ On My Head' and In 'Between The Heartaches'.

No date has been set for the new set to drop but it's rumored to be spring/summer of next year.

Monica is coming in 'After the Storm'

 

Back again - MonicaMuch in the same light as Usher a couple of years back, last year Monica's then to-be-released, album 'All Eyes on Me' was leaked and bootlegged to the internet and so she had to pull the set and overhaul the album. Now with the help of Missy Elliot as producer on board she is ready to come full circle with the updated and renamed album called 'After The Storm'.

It's been five years since her last album and Monica now looking more mature and (may I say sexier) returns with the first single from the album called 'So Gone', which is produced by Missy. The song has found a home at radio station formats across the country and she has recently shot the video for it here in Miami.
 
Other guests on the album include DMX on 'Don't Gotta Go Home' and Tyrese on 'Go to Bed Mad'.
