Muni Long has received her props from Monica, who caught wind of the rising star’s recent freestyle over 50 Cent‘s “21 Questions” beat.
The rising star stopped by Sway in the Morning on Thursday (February 29), where she was “put on the spot” by the legendary DJ. Though it was certainly a challenge, Muni Long more than held her own over the classic G-Unit beat.

That prompted Monica to stop by The Neighborhood Talk‘s Instagram and leave a comment in support. “REAL WRITER REAL CREATOR [fire emoji],” she wrote.

Last year, 50 Cent revealed that he’d initially written “21 Questions” to help with his fledgling love life.
The comments were made in an interview with MSNBC’s Ari Melber, where 50 elaborated on his recent revelation that Dr. Dre didn’t even want the Nate Dogg-assisted track to appear on his blockbuster 2003 debut album Get Rich or Die Tryin.’

“[Dre] said, ‘I know what this is. It’s N.W.A with just one member and you really don’t need it,’” the Queens, New York legend recalled. “He didn’t know why I wanted to put the record on.”
“Why did you?” Melber interjected.
“Because I wanted ladies to feel like maybe they could fix me, and I had done so many push-ups,” Fif replied with a smile. “So I felt like, ‘This is gonna be good for my love life!’ I’m dead serious.”
He added: “I thought that they would see some way that they could possibly fix me or understand me in a different way. And their favorite line on the song was, ‘I love you like a fat kid loves cake.’ When I wrote it, I was thinking, I love you, but too much of you is no good for me. Like a fat kid loves cake.”

As for Muni Long, she made headlines back in January when she took Universal Music Group to task for having her music pulled from TikTok by her label’s parent company.
The “Made for Me” singer took to TikTok on January 31 to share her thoughts on the matter. In the caption, she suggested that she was in therapy for the record label drama, then revealed in her video that she felt it was some sort of sabotage to her career.

“I mean, it’s not like they are refusing to support my music until I prove that it’s valuable by investing my own money, and maybe, possibly, lucking up on a hot TikTok trend or anything like that,” she wrote, referring to the “Made for Me” challenge that has since gone viral.
