You can definitely tell Muni Long knows the business side. She dropped lots of gems in this interviews. Respect queen.
@Lady Lyrics I hear you. There are just some people (whether they are what we perceive them as or not) who will just not be energy congruent with others. And yes, Lil Mo was quite different. Animated😆 and more personable.
@TheRetroWoman80 yeah i am pretty reserved myself...i guess maybe to me she was coming off braggadocious or self-indulged. idk, maybe she & i just wouldnt connect irl...i mean b/c lil mo also was on her talking about her gifts & talents but it didnt read as "cocky" to me. idk
My tattoo says "Fuck It and Move on"
@N J valhallaiiiii
@Lady Lyrics I can understand why you caught that vibe. I know someone personally who has a similar personality. While I watched it I just took it as her being more naturally reserved and also protective of her energies based on her particular life experiences. J and Tank, of course, have had their experiences as well. But, since this podcast began, I sense with them a more naturally open and playful, or chill vibe.....no matter who comes on to speak with them.
"Success has many fathers. Failure is an orphan." BARS from this woman.
@Mmunchie oh okay! I thought she meant there are many ways you can find success but you only fail one way, if you quit lol
@Sydney S you’re welcome darling. Much success to you!
@Mmunchie ahhh thank you. I like that analogy.
@Sydney S “success has many fathers” - When things are going well or are successful, many people are willing to take credit so that they can bask in the limelight.
“Failure is an orphan”- when things are down or an idea fails, people will distance themselves and abandon ship.
In her case, when she became successful, everyone wanted credit in helping her succeed but when she was struggling, she was on her own.
This went over my head 😩 somebody break it down for me
She mentioned the the Maxwell challenge please get Maxwell on R&B Money. That would be a 🔥🔥🔥 episode
Every episode I look for MAXWELL! I got it so bad too!!!🤍🥰🌹🏆💎
@PowerHouseMarriageYou’re talking about Eric Benet. Trust Maxwell has NOT been on the show!
@Georgene P definitely AVANT
@_ThaPlayerOfAllNationz_ yessssss. I want more of that Robert Kelly details of him trying to ruin Joe's career
@Samiir J Yes Anita Baker
I love this podcast! I think my favorite episodes are with female artists because of the real and tender way that J and Tank speak life into these black queens! Muni Long is a queen and I loved hearing her story! She’s incredibly talented! R&B Money is a whole vibe and I am here for it!!
I said the same sing. The two gentleman are very respectful to the ladies that they invite to their podcast.
Her sun, rain, garden analogy to management in the industry was fire.
I still have my physical copy of her debut record. Her pen been lethal!! I hope Muni takes that best new artist Grammy because it’s very much deserved!
Same. I played that album out and sing it word for word.
I got mines too and had her autograph it for me. Never knew she would get this huge
I agree with this
She’s operating from such a high energy space and it’s transferable. I absolutely loved this interview.
Muni Long is what R&B needed. She’s got a viscous pen and she’s saying all the things that need to be said. I enjoyed this episode. Thank you @R & B Money Podcast for continuing to support and provide excellence. I’m thankful for the pod and a lot of the viewers/people in the chat who reached out upon learning/hearing about me losing family members. I was in awe of all the kind words. This platform has provided much more than information about music and the love of all things r&b, it has become a safe haven, and I’m grateful. All the kind words really helped me to get through. See y’all next week ❤
@Lascelles James thank you 🥰
My condolences to you sistar and prayers up🙏🏾🙏🏾
Love the phrase viscous pen!! I will be stealing that lol.
@STL CHIC Thank you so much. I truly appreciate all the love and kind words. 🥰
We love you Sis! Praying for you and your family! ❤ 🙏🏾
I saw Tank years ago in a line waiting to go inside a club in New Orleans. He looked excited just to be around people and literally stood in the line talking when I’m sure he could have pulled some strings for the club to let him in. I’ll never forget that!
This wasn't just an Episode, this was #RnBMoney : School & Life featuring MUNI LONG ⚠️
This felt like a class with 2 professors and a master's graduate 🎓 In the music business ⚠️
Watching you 3 navigate from 3 different perspectives and still end up on the same path was super dope! All 3 were not only listening to respond but you all were also listening to receive! That itself is why longevity is attached to all 3 individuals ⚠️
Last but not least, that R&B vultron is NOT TO BE TOYED WITH #ATall⚠️
I've been a fan of Muni since her Priscilla Renea days. Dollhouse and Lovesick were my anthems in high school. I'm happy she's finally in the spotlight and having her moment. I look forward to seeing her star shine brighter and brighter. 💜💜💜
omg i wore lovesick outtttt lol also hello my apple and dollhouse were bops too.
THIS!!
Loved this interview!!! They were the big brothers she needed!! ❤️❤️
Loved this! *A TRUE FEMALE WRITER/PRODUCER* spitting facts on how she established her roots and protected her voice and name throughout this tricky industry!!!!
Muni Long is an amazing artist! This podcast is so vital and awesome, I love and appreciate Tank and J.Valentine for creating a safe haven for R&B!!
Avant-!
Glad you enjoyed it!
She is INSTANTLY likable..that has been really rare for me these days..either people are really withdrawn or too self absorbed but she has infectious energy
I’ve been refraining from asking, but if it’s in yalls hearts, please invite Monica. 🙏🏾
Btw This podcast is so beneficial for those of us that love R&B history but weren’t exposed to the genre until like teenage yrs smh. I used to have to sneak n listen. Maybe Tank can relate lol…Appreciate the content always. 👌🏾
I'm Humbled and Honored to be able to see the vision of Iron sharpens Iron!!!
Tank I owe you a huge thank you for the YAMZ Challenge because I did so and shared it on TikTok and my following tripled from doing that challenge!!!
⚖️♎️☯️🎵☆ Salute ☆🎵☯️♎️⚖️
Brandy b4 Monica please and Thank you lol
That top 5 🔥🔥🔥... Muni "Don't Miss" Long!!! Her pen game is so strong. I enjoy lyrics again because of her. I wish her a very long career. Thanks for still going R&B Money Podcast. I love how we never have a clue who is gonna be the next guest. Its always top notch.
That Top 5 made say "DAMN!" every time
She’s Such A Cold Cut, Straight To The Point VIRGO ♍️ ‼️ She Knew Exactly What She Was Gonna Say, And Spoke With So Much Conviction.
This was the best interview yet. Love how real and raw it was. I like the pushback, the challenge, the vulnerability. Everyone is always so agreeable when being interviewed. Give us the real! Encore!
This is random, but she could play Patti LaBelle in a biopic! Such a beautiful and gifted artist! Enjoyed this episode!
Never noticed before but yes. They have similar eyes.
I was saying this immediately when I saw her. From the look to the down-to-earth vibe, it’s giving Patti ❤❤
Also the poise. She has it.
Yes it’s the eyes! U are so right. I never saw it until you said something! Great eye!
I agree! I don’t know what it is but she reminds me of Patti LaBelle. I think it’s the eyes.
I love Muni’s ability to vocalize her experience with confidence. Really enjoyed this interview.
Muni is such a true artist. Im a music snob and loved her instantly! You are such a gem Queen please stay encouraged on your path. You are EVERYTHING!
I love this interview so much because it went off script! It wasn’t the standard questions that are asked repeatedly with other guests. I loved listening to this conversation! Great job y’all!
Great Conversation among 3 very different individuals Who’s Zodiac sign first being Capricorn (Tank) Virgo (Muni long) Cancer ( J.Valentine) it’s so powerful to feel the Energy from all three of them having a conversation that flows with not talking over each other.Muni Long talks with so much poise & her career is going to be long one. R&B Money has again put on a Masterful Masterclass for us R&B Junkies …..Thank you so much 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾#StandingOvation
Yeah… I’m a Virgo. I felt what she was feeling. ♍️❤️💛❤️
Is anybody else interested in possibly seeing Tank & J Valentine in a comedy drama about the industry, with a few of their guests (Jamie & Lil Mo) coming through to make some cameos? Their chemistry is amazing & J. Valentine has awesome comedic timing.
We used to speak on MySpace… I followed her journey since 05.
I remember her as Priscilla… I couldn’t be any more happy. You deserve all your 💐‘s 👑 truly.
When a friend introduced me to Hrs & Hrs… I was like I keep hearing this record everywhere it’s pretty dope… when I seen the name on Wikipedia I froze… like WOW… she’s back… again. It’s rare you get an opportunity. Even more rare to do it again. She’s a 1 of 1.
Edit: they start speaking on it around 39:00
But Hrs & Hrs around 44:00
When Muni Long shared she has Lupus, if she would have been willing to share, I wished that would have been explored more for those of us that suffer from it to hear how she navigates her illness in the music business with such a grueling schedule. Thanks🙏🏾
“I do different things and I got keep this money coming in, liquid excitement.” Tank is a plum fool 😂.
I don’t really know what it is, but this young lady resonates an anointing, that is the only way I can explain it. She comes off articulate and well versed. A quiet storm. I think Tank needs to add Muni to the Tank mentorship program.
Muni Long is one who will be here for a long time. Glad she been reminding people that true R&B still exists. Not just with the old school but with the new school too
Being a florida girl from the 305 I am so proud of Muni being Vero beach and making it is an amazing task. I'm noticing Florida girls got some pens Muni, Sevyn and Faith are the main one I can mention there are probably more. This is a great interview 👏🏽
Florida Stand Up 👉👈💯
@Jay curt that's right Ms. B pen was 🔥🔥 r.i.p
Betty Wright.
I can understand why she keeps her guard up.... she's very humble.. shes sincere, shes not pretentious. she takes pride in what she does to the fullest and what i got from this interview is that she gives her all but people have taken advantage of her kindness and have used her.
I like so many others
value her body of work and she's a very talented artist and shes super grounded... she has great respect for herself. She was brought up right.
I don't know her but watched clips on the Soul Train awards. Thanks for having her. Also, early congrats on reaching 100K. Well deserved!!🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Yes! Thank you!
This podcast just keeps getting better & better!
I do wish she would’ve touched more on her Lupus health condition because a lot of people deal with that known & unknown, & also she’s gotten a lot of flack for her first BET performance when people didn’t understand she had been sick & having Lupus takes a major toll on peoples bodies. I did also wanna hear her experience writing those big hits she just danced over lol. Nonetheless great interview!
@Stephen Donnell God bless you 🙏🏼
@SheRhonda I’m so grateful you are too. Definitely will be keeping you in my prayers.
Indeed it does. I feel for all who endure that challenge.
Love everything about Muni Long! Her voice, vibe, energy , intelligence, talent and humility !!!!
I'm check out her music I haven't been listening to r&b lately because it all sounds the same
I love this cuz she makes being a Virgo artist sound doable beyond the overthinking & perfectionism It’s hard out here but she gets it
This podcast is like attending school for me. I am learning so much about artists, producers, song writers, the music business, etc. Muni is a class act and so gifted. Thank you Tank and J. for sharing and inspiring.
Earlier this year someone said R&B was dead, but to me between the 3 of you all it’s been saved. This podcast was needed. And PDA was most definitely needed. I love that singers are singing again!
She's so humble 🙏 yet it feels like the industry has taken advantage of her.
WHO WAS MUNI TALKING ABOUT!?! Oh how I LOVE THIS PODCAST! Now we NEED AN ALEX ISLEY EPISODE! Y’all murdered “ no limit “ 🔥🙌🏾🔥
Yeah it was definitely Keyshia Cole, they have beef
@Alric Davis yes that makes total sense
keyshia cole
I wondered the same....I don't know why I thought it might be Monica
So happy she's getting the recognition she deserves...Also, love that she mentioned Avant 🔥👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Ahhhh her energy!!!!! 🌟
I love her voice. Her pen. Her style. she is just everything. I love that she is getting the attention that she deserves. Thankfully she didn’t get discouraged.
Another hit guys! I loved your soul train performance Muni! You are amazing.
You're the best!
I love how Tank reassure her to let the past hurt go and enjoy the moment. She really deserves it. I’ve been watching her for years 🤗
I love her! Her personality and the space she is in now. She was and is majestic!!❤❤
I love these conversations about the music industry!
Man…the timing of this interview couldn’t have been more perfect for me. Congrats Priscilla on everything! Another Great episode fellas
Glad you enjoyed it!
Saw an interview about 3 years ago when she still went by Priscilla and she was bitter about all she had went through in the music industry I'm so glad she persisted and how she learned from it and let it go and we can all see her success
Tank has not been THIS funny and I didn't know " What have you not been to the strip club when they play this?! they are dancing to this song J and you KNOW THISSSSS!!!!" OMG I can't. Much love to Muni Long and congrats on the longevity.
I love how honest muni long is.
Love the way these men genuinely uplift their sister!!!
Lets go Avant! Very underrated vocalist!!!
Yes!!! I Know and can Sang All of his Songs by Heart! Very Underrated! Magic Johnson knew He had a Gem
The jewels in this particular episode!!! Thank you so much, Tank & J. Valentine for having Muni Long on your podcast - her story deserves to be heard. The way she's so transparent and honest with it is inspiring. It's your time now, Muni!
And after watching her Soul Train performance, I can actually see the hard work paying off & the development she talked about. 👏🏾
I haven’t been able to connect musically to this generation-but this interview alone…I’m encouraged and I want to listen her albums.
I LOVE HER!! She is sooooo genuine, talented and sweet as can be. I’m so glad she’s finally winning!!!!!
She’s just as beautiful as her voice! I am here for it! Thank you for bringing her in to a REAL, RAW, & HONEST interview/podcast ❤
“Success has many fathers. Failure is an orphan.” Damn that was hard!
I met P at an event hosted by ASCAP in LA, attended a performance before her album "colored" came out in NYC and the first time I heard "Muni" I said ...that sounds like Priscilla. She's the most humble of beings and really connects if you ever get the chance to be in her presence.
I can vouch that Tank is actually a cool cat, especially with regular people. When my sister first started doing videos, Tank treated her like family. He showed her love on the Lil Zane video set in 2003-2004 and even when he saw her at the club later on that week. He treated her with importance. He went out of his way. He was cool when he was in his prime... that type of treatment is few and far in between in Hollyhood 💪🏾 ❤️
AMAZING INTERVIEW!! I love hearing songwriters explain their experiences too!! Maybe Missy or Unc Charlie next?!
Thank you R&B money for all that you do. This project is extremely inspiring.
Can we get Jagged edge and Silk on here!?💚
Thanks!
Doesn’t surprise me that Kelly Price is masterful at layering/stacking and directing BVGs when you come from the School of Mariah Carey. She had several masterclasses being her background singer.
Kelly wasn't schooled by Mariah, Background singer for her, yes but trust she was already in her lane
Great session fellas tell Muni Young to keep the up regarding meeting the greats despite her experience and she found a fan in me...not by her music alone thanks to the r&b money podcast, but the way she just rose to the top by remain diligent and passionate about the approach and rising above all the bullshit the business has people surrcoming to. Be proud of your accomplishment stay humble as you are and keep making hits.
Time machine is on my repeat playlist……I feel that song everytime I listen to it!!! Muni please don’t stop doing what you do or being you…..r n b music needs you!!! And yes….please get maxwell !!!! And Anthony Hamilton!!!!!
This was one of the best episodes ever ….get Toni & Tamar Braxton(together), erykah badu, & Jill Scott
Convo was too 🔥. So happy Muni is getting her flowers and is in a position of power now. I first learned about her on the Terrell Show. Sis is a force 🎵✍🏾. It’s unfortunate that none of her co-writers had her back, but God got her now and all of that has made her wiser and stronger ❤
She so talented, I love her, glad she’s getting her recognition
She deserves the grammy for r&b album of the year!
I really enjoyed this episode! I knew of Mini Long but hadn't really got into her music so I came to it with a blank slate and loved it. The conversation was rich, respectful and enlightening. I now have a whole routine where I save the new episodes for when I am cooking Sunday dinner. Kudos to Tank and The Valentine.
Extremely talented and gifted young lady. I really hope that these artists figure out how to own the game from top to bottom. I want them to not have their talents pimped out by people who are only talented in hustling real talent.
Thank you! Finally Muni Long 💜💜💜💜 so unsung and changing the game all while she's riding for others and finally getting some of her just due! May there be many more Decades of success and people see how talented she is not only as a writer producer but as a song stressed truly gifted vocal artist. To me just my view she's like the Luther Vandross on the female side she knows how to put stuff together like Luther did phenomenal gifts
Really good interview!!! Love Muni Long honesty about the music industry!!! This is why R&B Money is so important because you give the artists the platform to speak their truth!!!
Tank and Jay are the best! I have ADHD and they keep my full attention each time I watch an episode. They are so genuine and make their guests feel comfortable enough to open themselves to give us the backstories, the tee, all while having a good time.
Sweat=liquid excitement!!! I love it Tank 😂💕
I love her so much, I've been watching her since she was singing the dictionary on youtube
You can tell she’s smart, intelligent and well read 🤓
The support and camaraderie from Tank and J Valentine to Muni Long in this video is amazing. To see artists lift each other up, give each other their flowers, and share wisdom publicly is much needed. Great episode.
WOW!! This was insightful, impressive, comedic… Thank y’all!! 👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Thanks so much!!
She’s very business minded & grounded. The world needs more “Muni Long’s!” This was a great learning episode!
Everytime I watch an episode I'm so tuned in and focus. I can't just listen as I something to play in the background. This episode is one of my top fives, loved Muni vibe. Loved finding out how long she been in the music industry and such a prolific writer. This was a great interview.
Now can we PLEASE get Usher and Chris Brown next?! Donell Jones would be good too
great energy when they have other songwriters on this platform
This channel is most certainly underrated! So happy I’m here before 1M subs.
You're the best!
That first story she told was priceless. 👑
First of all, Muni Long stole my heart with this interview. Ima stop sleeping on her frfr 'cause it's evident I'm missing out!! Second of all, the strip club is not a scam! It's an experience. Amen Tank for the sermon!👏🏿
@R & B Money Podcast thanks for sharing Muni Long with us. Really enjoyed hearing her journey into the music industry as a song writer, singer, and producer. I didn't know she been in the industry as long as she has and written for so many artist. Ohhh and her Top 5 across the board was all 🔥.
Love her spirit. You guys always keep good company. And her talent speaks for itself. Get yo flowers sis.
You three doing a song…🔥 I’m putting it out into the atmosphere! That would be incredible!🧡
Y'all better teach the ppl! ROI is real! And Muni is wise "You want what I can offer, but you don't want me" is a barrrrr!
I love her style ❤ She will definitely be a household name if she’s not already🫶🏾🙏🏾🫶🏾
When she spoke about having to sing around her vocal injuries I felt that. I be having the same issue and didnt know how to describe it until she said it.
Muni is a writing machine geesh!! More power to her that's amazing and she is amazing, I've learned so much more about her as a writer and a artist!! Most definitely need H.E.R, Carl Thomas, Missy Elliot, of course Jazmine Sullivan!!! I love this podcast because I LOVE R&B!!!!!
It's so sad how the music business is...some people can be so money hungry. I admire how she's putting her foot down on no longer being used. I hope by her doing that that she changes the game.
This is the most enlightening episode ever. 🥰
I’ve been a Muni Long/Priscilla fan since her Clip-Share day and seeing her public rise has been beautiful! Her mention of Avant is hands down a hell yea! Songwriting and vocals and Tamia - “Officially Missing You” 😮💨🔥🔥🔥
Her top R&B song list is AMAZING! Especially, "Officially Missing You." I am playing it after this interview.
I really dig this podcast, I know I just dated myself with the word dig but y'all got something special right here. Keep this going at all cost!
Muni is such a vibe😍✨. The last 2 segments Top 5 vaults and I ain't saying no name are my faves❤️. Manifesting that GRAMMYs win🙏🏾.
I'm praying for Priscillas marriage and career....she spiritual and special 💯 Come on girl R&B needs this!!!
When Muni Long said “ in my Virgo mind” it all made sense to me.
We remember Priscilla! So glad her journey has brought her this far. We need her!
