It looks like this week brought with it a huge announcement from singer Monica, as the R&B starlet revealed that after over 20 years, she is now leaving her longtime label home, RCA Records.

Its a very rare feat for an artist to stay with a label for for over two decades, but Monica has remained with the powerhouse since her debut album which arrived in 1995. The singer took to Instagram on Thursday (Nov. 17) to share the following on her departure:

I want to say thank you to RCA and their ENTIRE STAFF… for more than half my life we have been family. It’s been an honor to be on the same contract for two decades. I grew up with you all. So many moments that changed my life because of your belief in me… Peter, Keith, Carolyn, Trevor, Theola, Russ, all of Radio all of the street teams soooooo many of you have been influential in the woman and artist I’ve become. Our contract may have ended but the love is FOREVER …… There’s a level of respect and dignity that has come with the ALL the hits we’ve made❤️to Clive Davis.. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU!! I know most your grey hairs were because of me in my teenage years LOL but you believed I could sing any genre & with you I did… Love Forever …

No word on what Monica has planned next, but stay tuned.
