Mona Lisa

Tallahassee Democrat's Maisha Maurant says of it "Mona Lisa has their style down but lacks the punch, in part because of lackluster material and production." Sophie Lazin of The Morning Call says Mona Lisa is "given material that's just plain corny. He says "Mona Lisa is a little more than a pretty face who can sing. She sings well. The stuff just is not overpowering. The material is a little older than 16, but probably right on for this decade. Seductive overtones are not out of line for today's average teenagers. The trouble is it never to looks to go anywhere above average." Joseph Blake in Times Colonist praised the album writing "Her songs move effortlessly from hip hop-influenced grooves to older soul ballad styles. She's somethin' special." Ray Marcano in Dayton Daily News gave it 1 star finishing "11-20-79 gives you droll, listless material that moves along at the pace of a tractor chugging down a country road. Much like this album, you just can't wait for the journey to be over." In 2011, her collaboration with labelmate DL, "First Klass (That Lyfe)" was released as a digital single. It's the lead single for the King of Paper Chasin soundtrack. Her song, "Once Upon a Time" (written by Dennis Cooper) appeared in the film, The Heart Specialist which was released in 2012.
