Kristian Bush
Monica knows how to make a conversation sing—literally. Kristian Bush sits down with Monica to talk about Grammy-winning country act Sugarland and his own solo projects. They also “drink happy thoughts” together as Monica convinces him to perform.
Throughout their chat, they unpack Kristian’s childhood growing up in Appalachia and his journey to stardom, complete with a hug from Dolly Parton. But as the faces of country music keep changing, Kristian makes one thing clear: he loves it. Bring it on, Beyonce.

T.I.
T.I. is certainly guilty of one thing: keeping Monica on her toes. In one of his songs, he claims he’s the “King of Da South,” but T.I is a man of many titles. He’s a rapper, father, director, philanthropist, producer, and entrepreneur. His success didn’t come easy, and T.I. shares the reason he became a drug dealer at age 14 and how those experiences and hard-fought lessons fuel his trap music.
