What do you do when the concert you are due to perform is canceled just hours before it was supposed to start? You get the most out of it in Houston.

R&B singer Monica did just that when her show with Chris Brown was canceled on Saturday. Event organizers say “Brown didn’t show up in Houston” despite his team members arriving on time.

Monica took part in Summer Walker’s Sunday show at 713 Music Hall and gave ecstatic fans a surprise performance. (Can you imagine?) The setlist included his 1995 hit “Before You Walk Out of My Life”, “Love All Over Me”, and “U Should’ve Known Better”.

The crowd sang with every word. Look above.

She attended the RodeoHouston Carnival, posting from there on her Instagram Stories.

Monica’s 1995 debut album produced five top five singles. She teamed up with Brandy for the No. 1 hit “The Boy is Mine” and followed by two No. 1 solo singles: “The First Night” and “Angel of Mine”. Her last full album was 2015’s “Code Red”, although she continued to release singles.
