(NEWARK, NJ) -- New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) presents R&B sensation Monica with her 'Code Red Experience' Tour on Sunday, October 1, 2023, at 7:00pm.

Since then, she has continued to release chart-topping albums and singles, earning her multiple awards and accolades. Wé McDonald will open the night.

She owned the Billboard charts in the '90s and '00s with hit after hit: "The Boy Is Mine," "Angel of Mine," "So Gone," "Don't Take It Personal (Just One of Dem Days)," "The First Night" and "For You I Will."
