In this day and age, it’s not very normal to see an artist leave a record label happy and on their own terms.
Well, veteran R&B singer/songwriter Monica is doing so graciously. After two decades with RCA Records (Sony), the “So Gone” hitmaker has announced her exit from RCA Records.
“I want to say thank you to RCA and their ENTIRE STAFF,” she revealed on Instagram. “For more than half my life we have been family. It’s been an honor to be on the same contract for two decades. I grew up with you all. So many moments that changed my life because of your belief in me… Peter, Keith, Tom Corson, Carolyn, Trevor, Theola, Russ, all of Radio all of the street teams soooooo many of you have been influential in the woman and artist I’ve become. Our contract may have ended but the love is FOREVER
She continued: “There’s a level of respect and dignity that has come with the ALL the hits we’ve made to Clive Davis.. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU!! I know most your grey hairs were because of me in my teenage years LOL but you believed I could sing any genre & with you I did… Love Forever.”
Monica released eight albums and a plethora of hit singles under the Jive/RCA/Sony umbrella after launching her career in 1995.
We wish her the best in the next phase of her career!
