June is Black Music Month.

Today I’m looking back at the music of Monie Love.

She released her debut album, Down To Earth, way back in 1990, when I was a young and impressionable sixteen-year-old boy.

I loved her music; it sounded so fresh.

Most of all, I loved her collaboration with Adeva, Ring My Bell.

I liked the way she infused house music into her work.
