The hometown singer is now up for two Grammy for awards, including Best R&B Album for “Still Standing” and Best Female R&B Vocal Performance for the song “Everything to Me,” from the album.

Mo, who is newly engaged to Lakers baller Shannon Brown, said that although she was happy to be a stay at home mom, this nomination confirms she’s on the road to a comeback:

“I wasn’t expecting anything from this album other than me to reconnect with the fans, so it was just an honor to be thought of by your peers and the Grammy Association.

It’s just that confirmation that I needed that this is where I’m supposed to be at this point in my life, because I was very happy with being a stay-at-home mom.

So, to come back after such a long hiatus, it’s just a good feeling, and I’m still in shock. Nothing’s really set in.”
