Fair R&B

Just “Like This And Like That,” Monica will perform at the Stanislaus County Fair summer 2020.

The Stanislaus County Fair welcomes Monica, who will perform on Friday, July 17, appearing on the Coors Light Variety Free Stage at 8:30 p.m. The concert is hosted by 97.7/98.3 KWIN and is free with the price of Fair admission.

“It’s going to be enjoyable for all, as they’ll be appreciating 90’s and early 2000 throwback-hits this summer. Her R&B cadence is sure going to get the crowd dancing and moving,” said Adrenna Alkhas, spokesperson for the Stanislaus County Fair.

Monica is a Grammy Award-winning multi-platinum artist, 25 million-plus selling singer, actress, philanthropist and entrepreneur. She was born and raised in Atlanta, GA, and began her career at the tender age of 12 years old. She’s the youngest female ever to have two #1 back-to-back hits on Billboard’s R&B chart from her 1995 debut album “Miss Thang.”

Her sophomore album, “The Boy Is Mine,” garnered Monica pop success with a record-breaking 13 weeks at #1 on the Billboard charts, Monica’s chart topping success continued throughout her career with multiple album and single releases.

She achieved #1 Billboard singles in three consecutive decades, which puts her in the elite company of history making superstars such as Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, James Brown, and Marvin Gaye who also had similar accomplishments.

In January 2019, Monica released her first single, “Commitment”, from her highly anticipated album, Chapter 38. The single marked her chart-topping return to Billboard in a record breaking two weeks, further solidifying her exceptional and long-standing career.
