Speaker 1: 0:00

You would never believe me if I told you oh, you would never believe me if I told you this isn't my hair, fine.

Speaker 2: 0:08

What you did in high school sports-wise. Oh, come on.

Speaker 1: 0:12

Yeah, give it to you, you would never believe me if I told you I was on the golf team.

Speaker 2: 0:16

Wow, would you? Oh, hell, no, okay. Well, yeah, you was on the golf team.

Speaker 1: 0:20

In ninth grade my mom thought because I was black I could get a scholarship. I didn't even like golf.

Speaker 2: 0:24

She had a good idea.

Speaker 1: 0:25

She's not wrong, but I didn't stick with it, I skipped and go to dance. So now I wish I knew how to play golf, because I feel like that's where the billionaires go.

Speaker 2: 0:33

That's where the money goes. I need to make some deals.

Speaker 1: 0:36

What's up, you guys? It's your girl, Victoria Monet.

Speaker 2: 0:45

And my new single featuring SOS is out right now. What's up, nyla? We need to talk. What's going on, guys? And welcome to another episode of we Need to Talk. Today I got a very special guest in the building. I've been obsessed with her for years, so I'm so excited to have her. We got Victoria Monet.

Speaker 1: 0:54

Hello, how are you? I'm doing good, happy to be here.

Speaker 2: 0:58

Man, I'm so happy you're here. I am a fan, fan, fan, thank you, of you, your music, your talent, your grace, how you carry yourself. Thank you so much. I'm just going to start off the gate with that.

Speaker 1: 1:10

Well, I got to give you your flowers too. I can't give you your own flowers, but I'm so happy for you and your growth and everything you're doing too.

Speaker 2: 1:16

Thank, you Killing it yeah.

Speaker 1: 1:29

I remember the first time we met had our encounter, your earring fell out. Yep, we had to get creative. We had to get creative. I was eating twizzlers. I'm like I don't know if you want a twizzler backing, but yeah, it worked out. It's like it was reminiscent of, like the eraser backing that you use. Yes, like we made it work, you got the job. Thank you, hey. Whatever you need, whatever you need but I want to start with.

Speaker 2: 1:39

I know you just dropped the new record today with usher. Yes, sos, but before we get into that I gotta get into jaguar too okay I actually maybe we should even take it back further. Oh shoot, yeah, let's just take it back, because you've been working for a very long time. I'm an old girl, yeah, but you're not like you are really. You're hitting the prime, thank you like and I don't even think you've hit your pinnacle yet, but you've already accomplished so much. Thank you so much.

Speaker 1: 2:06

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 2:07

So let's talk about just the grind, because I think a lot of people are seeing you now and they're like, oh, who's this girl? She's amazing. But they don't even have a clue that you're not new to this. You're true to this and you've been working at it for a very long time. Also, just that like that transition between being in the background and helping people you know it's like a thin line, because people can be intimidated or try to like block you when you shine so bright. Right, but everybody loves you Luckily.

Speaker 1: 2:35

Well, you know what I will say.

Speaker 1: 2:37

Like something happened after the Grammys where Twitter I started getting mean comments, which I'm kind of signifying as I made it because, like before everything was a little too nice, like everyone was like rooting and like here for being, you know, rooting for the underdog and like wanting to see me win. And now I get a couple of haters but I'm like, oh, that's great, that's like looks more like who I see online, like other people who are successful. So I appreciate the love and the hate because it's like it just juxtaposes each other. You need one, you know, to appreciate the other more. But the whole ethos of Jaguar was that, like, as a melanistic Jaguar, it makes it very easy for them to blend into the shadows, but when they come out into the light you're like, oh shit, like this is a special being and they have this strong bite when they do bite down. So I believe it's the strongest bite in the rainforest, um, but yeah, so I'm glad to see like the name of the albums kind of manifest into what they became in real life.

Speaker 2: 3:38

So that is for sure. Yeah, do you think you're gonna do a trilogy of?

Speaker 1: 3:41

it, I'm gonna do a deluxe. So there's a Jaguar 2 deluxe coming October 4th it's literally less than a month away which is tomorrow in music industry terms. So I'm very excited there's going to be a few more songs. It's long enough to be a third part, but I just felt like after the Grammys it was a nice bow on the Jaguar chapter and I don't want to like extend for too too long. I kind of want to move into a new sonic range yeah, yeah, so the deluxe is on the way all right.

Speaker 2: 4:11

I'm excited, I will say. When I first heard the project, the first song I gravitated to was all right. So I was so happy you gave us a video. You like the up tempos, I love the up tempo. But more importantly, I just love the message behind the record because it's it's just so empowering for women there's really no records like that for us just talking shit, yeah, like all right, we fucked, but I don't, you don't, I don't own you, you don't own me, right and um, I feel like being by myself and just having a good time.

Speaker 1: 4:39

So fuck, it's amazing yeah, yeah, I fuck with that and I also just love kate renata. Like he touches, especially right now, is just like golden. I feel like, even though he's not like underrated, I still feel like he is underrated, in a way Like it's just more people need to know and appreciate and give him his flowers too. I think I think so too.

Speaker 2: 5:01

I think it's coming Like he hasn't hit his pinnacle yet.

Speaker 1: 5:04

Right, right, right right, so I'm excited to see what he does. It was an honor to have him on the BET stage with me. I think that was his first BET performance after all the things he's done. So it's just like I feel like we're all in a certain class. It feels like high school, and we're kind of graduating to the next level together, which is really cool graduating to the next level together, which is really cool, glad to see.

Speaker 2: 5:26

Yeah, yeah, it's awesome. Yeah, because k trinata's been putting in his work for a minute, for a long time.

Speaker 1: 5:28

He has such a sound and an energy. And then, um, when you see his festival shows, have you been to a k trinata show?

Speaker 2: 5:34

yeah, crazy brooklyn mirage I went to. Yeah, it was inspired about this vinyl. Look, yes, yes, yes.

Speaker 1: 5:41

Yes, I'm all in. Yes, I love it. No, he's super talented and like I want to see him win. Yeah, you know.

Speaker 2: 5:49

I do like the whole class thing that you mentioned. It's time I think everybody in the music industry is feeling a shift right now, yeah, and I'm just happy to see that it's at least shifting to people who are actually about the art and I think that's true, drowned out a lot, that's true.

Speaker 1: 6:06

Um, but like, even when I think about like rap, it's so like female right now, which is so fire to see, you know, like everything just feels like it's getting a nuance, a new change, um, still, while appreciating everything that already exists, but like more light is shining on things that were like dark before, almost unheard of, yeah, no, we're in a great space, but I know you said for this next chapter you're going to close out Jaguar and then try a new sound.

Speaker 2: 6:34

Yeah, I feel like on Jaguar, though, you've given us different sounds, you've given us you know, joints with Bougie Bantan and then like party ones, emotional ones. Where are you?

Speaker 1: 6:42

trying to go next. You know what that is to be discovered. But I feel like I want to travel and like take influences from maybe around the world a bit more, which I think I've done a little bit. But, for example, when we walked in, you were talking about how you just came from Brazil. Like what if I, you know, like in you know, I'm influenced by like Brazilian sounds and I collaborate with Brazilian artists, I'm like just like try new and different things and maybe some of the sonics would remain the same, but just feeling a little bit different, like a new chapter of the same person, you know.

Speaker 2: 7:17

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 7:18

Like the, the foundation of me will always be me. I don't know that I can um deviate too much from it, but I do feel like exploring, you know, and seeing what comes of it and maybe it lands me right back in the horny world of jaguar you know like but I just want to see you know, just experiment.

Speaker 2: 7:35

I'm definitely not mad at that. I would love to hear you over some Brazilian funk. Oh, they're like, they're going crazy right now, oh my god, it would sound so fun do you have a particular genre that you're interested in, like dabbling more into, or you don't even know yet I feel like I'm.

Speaker 1: 7:49

I definitely I'm gonna keep live instrumentation as a part of it, but maybe just different drums and different like types of flautists and different, um you know, guitar styles, like just kind of experiment. But subject matter wise, I probably will still be central tempo. I think I want to go up like yeah, you know like let's go outside.

Speaker 2: 8:14

I think you yo yo, I've been playing all right straight. I'm a DJ for like the past year and a half. Hey, you already knew like I'm so glad we got a video, because now people are like this song is so great.

Speaker 1: 8:25

But it's been great isn't it crazy how sometimes, like people just need to see it, it has to be a full sensory experience. Like you, you hear it, but you also need to see it, and then you go out, you feel it. It's like so many things come together to make you appreciate the record.

Speaker 2: 8:39

Yeah and it's cool because at first people would hear it and vibe to it, but now that it has a whole dance to it, oh, circle choreography. You know, what I'm saying Now. It's really a moment. I've watched this record grow from start to finish and it's cool as fuck I love that.

Speaker 1: 8:56

I think it's really fun when people come up to me and they just do it. They can't be like girl, you know it's a titty. I'm like girl, you know, titty Like I'm like. Yes, be proud and like live you know so that's what the intention was is just to like keep inspiring and put dance at the forefront of music, because I feel like it's so powerful it takes records from zero to 60, literally. Man, you know, with TikTok right now it's like well, ah, ah, ah, and now it's number one.

Speaker 1: 9:20

Yeah, so and so you just never know where movement can take a song, and so this, you know, all Right's choreography has definitely upped it a couple notches.

Speaker 2: 9:29

Shout out to Sean Bankhead what you guys have been eating I mean, when it comes to the visuals with you, you have not felt this yet. Oh, my God, thank you, I want to keep it up. Yeah, and let's talk about On my Mama, because I remember when that video dropped. Yeah, and let's let's talk about On my Mama, because I remember when that video dropped. Yeah, it was definitely a moment. I feel like everybody stopped watched it. Yeah, the fits was banging, the dance was banging, everything was banging. Your mom was in it, your daughter was in it Like just talk to me about the intention behind that.

Speaker 1: 9:59

Yes, so On my Mama, we really wanted it to feel like, uh, like almost like a costume party, but like just uh, time travel a bit and take people back to the early 2000s when people were wearing the tall tees and the pagers and like, well, that wasn't pagers, but it just the, the letter. Um, you remember those, those belts that like what, the, the it'll you can say any message going across the belt. And just bring some of that back, because I remember how I felt at that time when I was in high school. Maybe some of y'all were younger, but I was in high school at that time and it just felt like such a free, cool moment and like I thought I was grown you know already so bringing that feeling back into this song and then having my mom and my daughter part of it just felt really, really special.

Speaker 1: 10:48

We were inspired by Ciara, inspired by Maya in the wardrobe, inspired by some cultural memes and gifs going around and like some dance movement that was a part of black culture. So to bring all of that together, I think there's a lot of talking points in the music video that gave people nostalgia and that always brings people together. When you can talk about, you remember when, and so I think it just created a discourse and conversation that's like really cool and special yeah, it was fun.

Speaker 2: 11:21

I feel like it forced everybody to give a fuck more about videos yes, I hope so, I hope so.

Speaker 1: 11:28

I think it's um, honestly it's. It's a fight to um for people to understand the value of a video, because I think there's just not that many platforms you can play them on anymore and doesn't go straight to tv. So when you're talking labels and you're talking people who are going to invest, what's the return? The views aren't matching up. But I think one of the best ways to market it for me as an artist is video because, like you were saying, people weren't really studying all right as much as they are until they were able to see it and connect to it with choreography. So for me it's really important to have a visual and display those types of things, because it changes the dynamic of how people listen that's a fact.

Speaker 2: 12:10

Yeah, are we getting more videos off this?

Speaker 1: 12:13

oh, because we're getting a deluxe now. So we are getting a deluxe, but I don't know like I'm gonna have to ask rca. Okay, all right, all right, it looks like. Hey, my department. All right, all right yo we love the visuals, please we want more visuals.

Speaker 2: 12:30

Okay, I'm gonna put it out there for the people. Yes, people ask me to say that yes, um, okay, so oh, I had another follow-up about on my mama which was. Oh, it was actually I. I do love how you like incorporate your daughter. Yeah, she's always involved. But I know before you dropped Jaguar 2 and you had the baby, people were concerned like is she still going to be active? Yeah, or you know stuff like that, yeah, and I will say, the most impressive part about On my Mama was the snapback what.

Speaker 1: 13:03

What you think so. Well, you know honestly, that was like I had a good A year and a half. It was a year and a half, so like it definitely like six months after having Hazel I still was feeling out of my body and like going through postpartum candidly and like just everything changed.

Speaker 1: 13:24

The whole gravity just didn't stay on me to train and eat right or like, tried a bunch of different like diets, to be honest, and like some of them I don't recommend. But I was really adamant about, um, personal health and I went alkaline for a while, which I know is really great, even if you're it's not weight that you're trying to be concerned with, it's like inflammation and health, um, and so, drinking a gallon of water every day, just doing what I'm supposed to do, and your body responds. Your body responds when you make, um, really smart changes and and it's the little things too, like you think about like liquid calories, like if you're having soda, if you're having juice, too much coffee, I'd get my coffee ice black. I know it's like crazy, but if it's energy that you're going for, that's gonna do it right there, it gets the job done.

Speaker 1: 14:16

But lord have mercy, isn't it crazy, though? Because I be thinking about people are like oh, I don't like this, um this, like ginger shot, I'm like but you just took a shot, it's a cute like, and you, you suffer for that. So, like, let's suffer a little bit for some health, you know, in the mornings, right, you know I've just been, I just started my fitness journey and I just started great thank you, my arm is coming in.

Speaker 2: 14:40

Come on, it's improvement, yeah, but um in it I have. I stopped with coffee in the morning, okay, because I get dunkin.

Speaker 1: 14:50

I know it's sweet as hell, oh, dunkin, oh, with the, I know what was you getting like, what was your? A milkshake, yes, it's so good, though. So good, so good.

Speaker 2: 15:04

I know, but I'm like, I'm my body's craving it when I don't get it right, it's a, it's a thing.

Speaker 1: 15:10

Yeah, is it really an addiction?

Speaker 2: 15:11

we don't have to get into how america is trying to kill us right now.

Speaker 1: 15:15

I know it's a deep conversation.

Speaker 2: 15:17

That's a really deep one, but were you on the alkaline diet when you were preparing for the video?

Speaker 1: 15:23

I want to say yes. I've done it a couple times for leading up to important events, so I can't really exactly remember if it was right before or my mama, but I believe so. But based on my face in the the video, I want to say yes, because I can always tell like a little bit around here. This is like vain conversations.

Speaker 2: 15:42

No, don't pay attention to this thing doesn't matter but like yeah, I can tell, yeah yeah, I could tell okay and did you? Did you feel um? Because I know just in my group chat we talk about music all the time.

Speaker 1: 15:58

Yes, music, there's a group chat.

Speaker 2: 15:59

Yeah, you know, I love that. I'm a nerd about it but we were talking about, or somebody had mentioned like oh, she just had the baby. I feel like she's never going to come back to music. Blah, blah, blah. Did you hear things like that and did that bother you in any way?

Speaker 1: 16:17

Oh my God that. And did that bother you in any way? Oh my god. Yes, I told my team I was pregnant, in tears, and then, like in a few like I want to say a week or so, I was like they made a powerpoint presentation on like what it means, how much it costs. They were like we just want you to be aware this is what you're in for, and it was like in 2020, so I think one it was. It was like eye opening because I realized how scary it is for, I guess, a musician, a female musician to be pregnant and make music. But I feel like now the girls have gotten rid of that scare, we'd be on stage pregnant and everything. So I feel like nowadays, a culture is more accepting of a woman, which I'm glad to see, is more accepting of a woman, which I'm glad to see. But it's just unfortunate that ever was like the case that it wasn't cool or like it was like supposedly a death sentence for your career yeah.

Speaker 1: 17:04

It actually catapulted mine.

Speaker 2: 17:05

I feel, like.

Speaker 1: 17:06

You know what I mean. We love Sia Hazel. Yeah, she's great. She's a really special kid, so I got really lucky and, yeah, I'm just thankful that everything turned out the way I supposed to. She put a battery in my back to like go harder and like prove everybody wrong who's doubtful, and like just make sure my household is secure, yeah, so no, it's, it's important, like I'm glad you're incorporating it, I'm glad like you, you kept going yeah, she's like she's a yes, and you can like.

Speaker 1: 17:39

It's crazy that anybody would tell you that you can't. You know it's your body and you can simultaneously sing and be pregnant. You can simultaneously walk and dance. It doesn't cripple you. There's a break period, for sure. But I I think in other cultures people take healthy breaks like that and then come back, like even now it's getting deep, talking about health care and like how much time women get off in other countries.

Speaker 1: 18:05

Man two years paid Paid Two years paid Paid me. I'm having a baby, but I don't know. I guess America has its pros and cons.

Speaker 2: 18:14

Yeah, but then they're complaining because the population is down. For the first time in history, 50% of women at the age of 30 do not have a baby, Like for the first time, which means we're having a population decrease.

Speaker 1: 18:27

Which means they can make less money.

Speaker 2: 18:29

Ha ha, but healthcare please, men.

Speaker 1: 18:33

You know what I don't want, no problems I don't want no problems when it adds on this YouTube video, so we're not even gonna go there um, so today you dropped a record with Usher.

Speaker 2: 18:43

Yes, first of all, you've been working with a lot of goats. Oh my god yeah, you've been.

Speaker 1: 18:48

I feel like I'm in the zoo because, like the goats are everywhere left and right. It feels really good. It feels really really good to just be able to access and ask the questions I want to ask, or have the co-signs, or just collaborate with people that I really, uh, admire, you know so, yeah, that's a sexy record too.

Speaker 2: 19:10

Yeah, I think so too. Yeah, I'm like between two of you. This is exactly what I would expect. Yes, what was it like working with Usher?

Speaker 1: 19:18

Really really special. I was. There's two records, by the way, so SOS is the second one we did together. Okay, so the first record we did together, I had already recorded my part, so we just went in to record his and there were some rewrites he wanted to make, so like we ended up rewriting some things, and it started with a really great conversation. It was he I, la Reid, was in the room, my manager, my assistant and the engineer and we were just like talking. So I feel like that kind of eased my nerves just enough to communicate for the rest of the session. And then he went in the booth. Everything he sang sounded perfect, but he was starting to ask what I thought and which takes, and so I was giving him that feedback but also freaking the fuck out. Every time I turned away from the sound booth I was like, oh my God.

Speaker 2: 20:13

It's Usher.

Speaker 1: 20:13

What is happening, what the hell? And so then, after he was done, he allowed me to comp his vocals. I got in the headset and was doing my thing and I just felt so cool, like a dream come true, to do that and he liked how he sounded and I just started collaborating more and more on harmonies and things and we were there till like 5 am and we started collaborating more and more on harmonies and things and we were there until like 5 am and we both had really early things to do. I had a 7 am call time or something for Vogue that day and he had something else. He's always busy, but it just meant a lot that he would stay and work. There's really nothing he needs.

Speaker 1: 20:51

I feel like he has all the accolades. He lists what any prime artist would want. He got it. He has it all. So it's just also really inspiring, because I know that later on I'm still going to have work. I've got to keep working To be at the level of a person like him. Or if I think of what Beyonce doing, even right now I she's working. You know what I mean. She's out there doing something. So it just goes to show you that you're really never done, and especially if it doesn't feel like work to you, because it's what we love to do, so it's awesome that is that I'm happy for you.

Speaker 2: 21:30

Thank you, I am like I'm so proud. Thank you so much, because I know we don't know each other personally, but I feel like. I know you because I've just been watching your career progress for so long.

Speaker 1: 21:40

Well, I like that. I really like that, because I feel like when you get introduced to somebody and it seems like the world is handed to them, I guess it's hard to be happy for them, because you're like, oh, you had it so easy.

Speaker 2: 21:52

No, my friend was like oh my God, this is girl, victoria Monet. We were in college, so like I'm about the age of myself, but it was like 2014. 2015?

Speaker 1: 22:03

Okay.

Speaker 2: 22:04

Wow.

Speaker 1: 22:05

Oh, where did you study Paris? We were in Paris, yes.

Speaker 2: 22:08

I love that. Okay, she's like. She's so beautiful. How does nobody know who she is? She's so talented I love that Shout out to your friends. Yeah, shawnee Bravo, shout out to you. Shawnee Bravo, shout out to you in Paris. But so we got the new record with Usher. But who is going to be featured on this deluxe?

Speaker 1: 22:27

There are some other features. One of them is Thundercat. I love Thundercat and then I am putting we might even be falling in love on the deluxe with Bryson. Okay, and that's it for now. But I do have some others outside of the deluxe. Like I'll be on other people's projects and I will continue to collaborate with people because it's what I really love to do. Just wanting to make sure every collaboration I do just feels like the right record versus like it feels pieced together. So I'm willing to wait on certain things. I feel like some people are my comments. Anytime someone comments on my page they're like collab, that's the first thing, but I feel like it just matters what the collaboration is. So happy to have SOS and another one with Usher.

Speaker 2: 23:16

Um, I have a little wish list of collabs for you. You do, but you know that's, I'll talk about it after, because I want to get all this, okay, all this out of you. Okay, you're here, so SOS. Oh, I wanted to ask you how does it feel? Because the year that you had, last year, even to now, it's like you're really the it girl. Thank you, no pressure or anything but like how does it feel?

Speaker 1: 23:41

I feel really good. I feel honestly I do feel a little bit of pressure, but I think of diamonds when I think of pressure, amen, so I'm just gonna push through and continue to do what I feel is best be led creatively, instead of by pressures of music industry, timelines and all that stuff.

Speaker 2: 24:01

Because it can get crazy it can definitely be crazy.

Speaker 2: 24:03

Yeah, so I'm just gonna be here, take time making sure that what I like and put out is quality, good for you yeah, no pressure on that yeah um, I, I think I, I really just want to emphasize how important you are seriously because of, like, people don't put in hard work anymore you know, and people give up. So, like I am really a fan of you because of your process and because of how talented, so thank you so much. Oh, my God, I'm fanning out. Can we cut? Let's play the game, all right? Okay, so we play a game on here called questions that need answers. All you have to do is fill in the blank. Oh shit, okay.

Speaker 1: 24:41

Are they all about me?

Speaker 2: 24:43

No, they're like well, yeah, but you can answer funny, you can answer serious Okay.

Speaker 1: 24:49

Yeah, give the tea you would never believe me if I told you I was on the golf team.

Speaker 2: 25:19

Wow, would you? No, hell, no, okay.

Speaker 1: 25:23

Well, yeah, you was on the golf team In ninth grade my mom thought because I was black I could get a scholarship.

Speaker 2: 25:29

I didn't even like golf. She had a good idea. She's not wrong, but I didn't stick with it.

Speaker 1: 25:32

I skipped and go to dance. Now I wish I knew how to play golf, because I feel like that's where the billionaires get.

Speaker 2: 25:39

That's where the money gets. I need to make some deals. Maybe you know, maybe you can still tap back in pick up something. I like top, golf top.

Speaker 1: 25:51

I'm not mad at top, um, okay, yeah I didn't see that one on the big old cards that's a good one.

Speaker 2: 25:56

Speaker 2: 26:12

There's a picture.

Speaker 1: 26:14

Oh don't even go look for it. You got to research. Oh, my God, I had on khaki capri pants, oh, and like a tucked in husky, like collared shirt. How was the hair? I want to say it was in a ponytail okay, back, that's doable. That's doable. It was at the top, but I think it was at the a low ponytail look, my mom kept me in meek meal braids for years. Yes, no, not.

Speaker 2: 26:37

Your hair is healthy sure you know, nobody's trying to look like meek in high school.

Speaker 1: 26:42

Speaker 1: 27:16

Yeah, it's hard yeah I feel like we need like a better system for learning that, like as adults, like when we can, once we can actually vote, then learn about it, because in high school we're like yeah, yeah, you know, we don't matter, yet I ain't even gonna act like I'm just trying to pass yeah, yeah um, I made a complete fool of myself when I oh one time I I don't even know if anybody noticed, but I felt it and I knew I was on an iMac but I hit the mic on my tooth and it chipped and I felt like for the rest of that show I didn't know how much chipped. So I was like I must look crazy. I don't know how much my tooth is missing. So I felt like a fool for the rest of the show. But no one saw it, no one mentioned it. So I guess now they may be looking for the footage, now they're looking for the video yes, that's crazy.
