New Album: MonoNeon, You Had Your Chance…Bad Attitude
Today, the bass virtuoso and funk originalist – MonoNeon – has released his new studio album You Had Your Chance…Bad Attitude. The album is another example of this prolific prodigy’s ever-evolving sound and features more experimental elements of R&B and funk. To mark the occasion of the release, a music video for the single “Beyoncé” is also out!
Prior to the albums full release, MonoNeon gave fans a preview with the pre-release singles “Beyoncé,” “Bad Attitude” and a stand alone track titled “God Reason” that had him teaming up with comedian Katt Williams, the legendary George Clinton and the GRAMMY winning producer, songwriter and rapper James Fauntleroy (Kendrick Lamar, Beyonce, SZA) – Watch the animated visualizer directed and created by Cody A. Banks.
The new album was recorded between his hometown of Memphis and the legendary Floki Studios in Iceland and will be his first release via the studio’s label imprint and distributed by Color Red. You Had Your Chance enriches a dizzying MonoNeon catalog that includes nearly 20 distinct solo releases, collaborations with Mac Miller, Ne-Yo, Sudan Archives and Georgia Anne Muldrow and crucial contributions to Nas’ King Disease, which won the Grammy for Best Rap Album in 2020. He’s also released his own signature five-string bass through Fender and Whammy pedal through DigTech – a testament to both his virtuosity and the respect afforded to him by studio pros and amateurs alike.
