Monica
At the age of 2 years old she went with her mum and performed at a methodist church.Monica basically trained herself when it came to singing.She was constantly putting herself out there as a contestant in talent shows.Talent shows were such a big deal during the time that she was growing up .It was basically the Tik tok for singing it was the onlyway for someone who doesn’t have connections in the Music industry to actually make it.When she was 10 years old she made history as the youngest member of “Charles Thompson and the Majestics”, a traveling 12-person gospel choir.
