     *Tonight at 8, Atlanta's local Peachtree TV channel presents an encore airing of R&B singer Monica's hour-long reality special, "The Single: Monica."

      Cameras follow the 27-year-old mother of two as she works with record producer-songwriter Bryan-Michael Cox and J Records A&R executives Larry Jackson and Jaha Johnson, on "Still Standing," an upcoming single off her new album.

       The special will track the process of creating a hit song from conception to recording to release, while also providing a peek at Monica’s home life raising 3-year-old Rodney III and six-month-old Romelo.      

       "I think what people will like the most about it, is you can tell nothing was censored or uncut," Monica says. "I mean, I'm walking around the house in a scarf because we'd been cooking and cleaning and getting the kids ready all day — and that's how folk really look."      

       "That's the most special part to me, the parts with my kids," she continues. "I've grown up quite a bit. I've learned to talk it out and work it out ... The part that's weird for me though, is seeing the emotional side of me, and maybe the way that Rodney [Hill] and I interact with each other. It's different with the cameras being there, and seeing that on television."

      Peachtree TV, owned by Atlanta-based Turner Broadcasting System, took over the local broadcaster position held by WTBS, on October 1, 2007.
