WORD FROM JIZOO:
I saw her on VH1 Soul - and fell, in love every since. I'm just happy to actually see NEW (good) artist coming out now... Melonie's voice is addictive - one song will lead you to another - PLUS she is a song writer - which a lot of singers lack these dayz... look out for her - you'll definitely see her soon... REAL soon... Ya Dygglez.
