Fresh off her highly rated single I Just Wanna, Slip-n-Slide Records’ up-and-coming songstress, Shonie, is back to prove she’s ready for the spotlight with Lights, Camera, Action. As she said in her recent In The Mix interview, Shonie lists old-school singers like Betty Wright and Lauryn Hill among her heroes and the influence shows in her powerfully smooth delivery and empowered woman lyrics. Thanks in no small part to some aptly golden production from Midus, the track is Shonie’s most radio ready record to date. If this song is any indication, Shonie should prepare to see a significant increase in the amount of flashing lights following her in the near future. Fans who have fallen in love with Shonie will have to wait until early next year to pick up a copy of her debut album Passionate…Pieces of Me.

Shonie's material is catchy - it is - but her voice doesn't have that extra special sparkle to really carry a record by itself. Thus, she needs the assistance of some real powerful production. This effort, by Midus, is okay.

Enough for rotation in my Booth, but maybe not for the masses...

I love this just as much as Can't Let Go, her voice is like a throwback to '01 and '02 or somthing like that. She reminds me of Lil Mo. Waiting for her to make it big...

production doesn't bang enough. but she desperately needs that to compensate, cause she is nothing special actually.

Her voice doesn't make me go crazy but she kept a good tempo throughout the song and the production work is real nice and just the type that has been proven successful for songs like this. Hook is nothing new but who knows it might catch on as well ... Rotation-Stuff.

Exactly Hawaii. You may not personally be in love with this song, but play it for a room full of women and I guarantee they'll be diggin it. (I won't front, I dig it to. I always did like a strong woman)

It's not a bad song. Light and breezy. The females will love this song. It sound better the more you listen to it.
