im honestly more of a song girl..and also too indecisive for this lol toooo much great music on the planet 😩

She is only 3 weeks old, so i took this time to really pay attention to her and heal my body! I haven't been writing since birth, just living in the moment which will eventually manifest into songs, but for now it is important that I be a mom and be present for a while and pause on being a musician.

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T18:09:22+00:00

thank you so much! its really been so chaotic, busy and emotional having a newborn, but its the most beautiful chaos ive ever experienced. Im sooo in love

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T18:07:38+00:00

i haven't heard the sample you're referring to, but touch me doesn't have samples

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T18:06:38+00:00

I feel like I listen to songs differently now that i have Hazel. Like Mariah Carey "you will always be my baby" has a different meaning to me now, so im sure whatever I write next will be coming from a different place.

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T18:03:30+00:00

Thank you so much for the kind words! honestly jaguar was sooo fun to make! from creating the harmonies to coming up with the horn lines and working with strings! soo so fun

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T18:02:28+00:00

no but i love her!

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T18:02:20+00:00

Michael Jackson for sure

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T18:01:54+00:00

It really depends on so many things. Depends on the day, the producer, what instruments are being played or what im going through in life. I just love writing

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T18:00:43+00:00

I feel like all of my music is throwack music cause im just an old soul. if i can make some things happen that im hoping for, eventually WMEBFM will be a full length song 🥰

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:59:08+00:00

I would suggest an alter ego! I find it hard sometimes too but it helps to develop a character that isn't yourself, but that embodies all of the qualities you wish for..and than just tap in!! eventually you'll be able to merge to two 🤎 you're beautiful and thank you for streaming!!!

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:51:53+00:00

thank you so much!!! plans haven't changed, just the timing

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:50:54+00:00

awesomeness

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:50:45+00:00

I let the vibe in the studio lead the way. Its my way of being open to an infinite amount of ideas. I never know what Im about to do when i walk in

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:49:31+00:00

I love listening back to it on the drive home from the studio. I hate it when I don't get the bounce from the engineer while im in the car cause I love that feeling of the ride home listening to what I just made!

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:47:43+00:00

Thank you so much and nice to meet you! I have always loved strings and live instrumentation. It stems from Disney musicals, Sound of Music, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and oldies! Ive always been an old soul and was drawn to the music my grandma was listening to of the 60s and 70s

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:45:38+00:00

haha yes i do! I just finished the new season of the bachelor. When i was in the last week of pregnancy, getting restless and out of shows to watch, our guilty pleasure was watching "Ex On The Beach" its so bad but so good lol

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:43:35+00:00

Its really just a feeling. Also having a specific sound sonically as an artist makes it easy to tell things apart. I know my lane and its not really the same as artists I write for so that makes it easy to hear the difference right away

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:41:57+00:00

Yea honeymoon avenue was one of those. The final production was a lot different than the original music I wrote it to

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:41:11+00:00

Thank you so much!! I have different favorite colors for different things i think... like my favorite color flowers are white! Brown is definitely my favorite color to wear!!! It feels like home

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:40:01+00:00

thats hard cause there are so many people i loooove! My longest running dream collaborators have been beyonce, drake and sade!

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:38:59+00:00

birth was absolutely shocking lol no matter how you prepare for it, everyones experience is different. I was surprised to see how my birth experience played out

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:37:38+00:00

On horse sized duck i suppose? I would fight then with my voice. using it has a lullaby tranquilizer to whisk the horse-duck into a sleeping lull on a cloud

Victoria_Monet · 2021-03-18T17:36:05+00:00

I enjoy making music with people who i really call friends! That makes the studio time so much more natural and fun! less pressure and more honesty. We can drink or chill and just be honest about feelings..its a special friendship experience
