Sista Monica is recognized for her songwriting, music recordings, powerful vocals, and dynamic performances. She connects and is often compared to legendary singers Etta James, Koko Taylor, Ruth Brown, and Katie Webster. Parker says “these women are the mothers of my blues” as expressed in her 10th CD “Soul, Blues, & Ballads”. It was released in 2010. She gained national TV placement of her music on the Fox channel. Her original song “Show Me What You're Working With" was on the hit show "So You Think You Can Dance" finale show August 11, 2011. Choreographer - Ray Leeper selected the song written by Sista Monica and her piano player Danny Beconcini from her 2005 CD release "Can't Keep a Good Woman Down." Melanie Moore was the winning dancer of SYTYCD 2011 as she danced to this sexy, naughty and somewhat dysfunctional routine as Leeper suggests. Her dance to this song was the highlight of the evening. She won! That means Sista Monica won too!
