Wow, what a nice and positive podcast from Men! So refreshing to see black men having an uplifting conversation with a black woman 🙌🏾 great topic and episode!
This needs waaaay more views! Too many negative platforms getting attention and convincing Black women that Black men don’t love, protect, or respect us!
great episode! I loved Victoria’s analogy with taking the street vs the freeway. I needed to hear that. It’s so easy to feel pressured by a self-imposed timeline that you overlook the development & lessons that come while you’re putting in the work.
Aspiring artist and single mother here. Thank you for having Victoria Monet on here and asking her all these questions. Definitely doing music and having women like her and Kehlani crushing their careers while navigating motherhood has been super inspiring and motivating for me to keep doing what I love. Love you Victoria!!!! ❤️
Crazy how much I relate with Victoria with being vocally softer. Being talented would always push you to the forefront. Some (me) enjoy blending in & working within a group like a choir or background singer.
Watching this a year later and it still being extremely relevant is amazing. The way y’all navigated this conversation as a whole and the metamorphic transformation is all that we are trying to grow and change in our lives is relatable in the best way.
Wow it’s really crazy how UNDERRATED!! This women is like .. she has this certain tone and voice that’s incredible and I feel as if she needs more recognition from the society. One thing about Victoria is she’s very ahead of her time and you know her talent should be well-known to say the least. This girl needs her cookies 👏🏽👏🏽 because most of the songs thats out that has millions and billions of streams and views all because of this brilliant women right here. I really appreciate her music and the way she sets certain sounds , the mood and tone of it , her music is very different from this society today. I love how she has a old soul . She’s showing many people that soul hasn’t died and it’s not going to. And her and the color BROWN wow! Because i love how much she cares for the color brown some people might think the color it’s just a “color” but like she said the color has a deeper meaning to it every color does but it feels like home to her * if you guys didn’t know the color brown is a mix of blue, orange, purple , green , red and yellow originally* so this color is somehow representing Monét because she’s gives this bright and lovely personality but with a mix to it lol . I hope that one day she gets the attention and eyes that she deserves fr.
My spirit led me to this podcast and im so glad it did. I needed to hear this. Victoria is a beautiful soul and i thank you all for being you💚 I've subscribed and will be tuning in consistently.
This is my first time coming across this podcast and I’m sooo impressed. I just wanted to leave that feedback because this was such a breath of fresh air, great representation, and right on time! Thoughtful questions with insightful responses. Good shit 🤎.
Wow I’m so glad y’all featured Victoria on this episode there’s not a day that I don’t get in my car & listen to her. She’s one of my favorite rnb artist
I was with y’all ( except Victoria, I get what she meant)until the Latino/Black debate You can be Black and Hispanic, You can be White and Hispanic , Indigenous and Hispanic , Mixed and Hispanic. Hispanic and Latino is an ethnicity not a race. Victoria is right when it comes to the N word. That’s why it’s all of the sudden it’s cool to be “Afro Latino.” Other than that I still enjoy the Podcast ,and Victoria is that girl. Been rocking with her since that feature with Nas on You Don’t Understand 🤎
I agree but we not gone act like a lot of latinos don't go out of their way to disassociate themselves from blackness..."I no black, I Dominican" is literally a catch phrase used by a lot of people
I think it’s the ‘illusion’ access. I hear a lot of people say you can receive 100 DM’s but that doesn’t mean you can actually connect and have anything meaningful. So it’s so important to connect to the real people in your life. Great episode as usual ❤️
Ohhhh this is a good a- positive show. Ya’ll hit some major points and her chill energy gave it balance. I love me some Victoria Monet! Give her all the flowers!
This interview/episode was amazing! Victoria is so freaking talented, and I truly hope for her to achieve even more success and happiness. If that Victoria/Silk Sonic collab comes, it’d be amazing!🙌
Not all Dominicans consider themselves black. However, as Jalon said the slave trade was there as well. Before the slave trade the native people were Taino, the same race of people who inhabited Puerto Rico. They are now distinct. The island of Hispaniola is made up of Dominicans and Haitians. So the population at large is majority descendants of Africa. Now Dominicans are considered to be Afro-Latino… heavy on the African decent mixed with Spanish (Spaniard) culture. As Spain came in and dominated DR. Yes, the race was mixed. Just like slave masters were getting it in with slaves and produced Mulatto or mixed people. Colorism is also an extreme issue in DR and accepting or acknowledging the African decent in which we are is mundane to a lot the people. If you consider the food of the island which is a Caribbean islands, most of our National dishes are of African culture, Mangú, Mofongo/Bofongo, Platano (Plantain) and it’s very similar to African and other Caribbean food. My mothers family are what you consider “dark” Dominicans and although my mothers family speaks Spanish, they are black… there’s little to NO integration there, and my grandmother will tell you. She is a black but the rest of them are in denial. How do you share an island with which once wasn’t separated with Haitians but you not black? You’ll always get a mixed answer from Dominicans because most of them are unknowingly black and feel superior because of the color of their skin. If you disagree God Bless. It’s all love 🇩🇴🇺🇸 The ones who get it.. get it and the ones who don’t DONT. I hope I don’t start a riot. Keep doin y’all thing! This is my favorite weekly watch! Love y’all and thanks for keeping me up on game! 🥃💎🤍
Omg I relate so much to Victoria from the church upbringing to the building self confidence and playing the background role. I love how honest and down to earth she is and she's quickly working her way up to my top fave artists!
I LOVE this podcast. Grateful to have gone down the Chanel and Duke Rabbit hole because it landed me here. I have a newfound respect for Victoria. I always have supported her but this podcast let her share her journey and speak her mind. I love when she said I was preparing for this! It reminded me of her song “Ready”! I love how hardworking and self directed she is & still remains so graceful. Thats SO inspiring. I always discuss with my friends how she is the perfect level of stardom. Authentic, genuine, raw talent, and paid! Forever a fan 🤎
These brothers did a fantastic interview. I loved the respect they gave Victoria Monet. She's so 🔥 deep. We need her Artistry. Congratulations to her on her Grammy. I know they'll be many more to come....❤❤❤❤
Yooooo…. So many golden nuggets dropped in this episode. I wrote down so many points made here. Genuine souls in front of the cameras. Much love to you gentleman and what you’re doing for the culture. 💗
My first time seeing this Podcast! What a superb show!! Thank you, youtube algorithm for sending me based on the fact that you know I stan Victoria Monet
Cardi didn’t always identify as a black woman though. Remember she described her & Offset’s relationship as “an interracial relationship”. So yeah, I def get where Vic is coming from.
@@Mel-go2pz Because she ain’t Black. People get race, ethnicity, nationality, and ancestry all mixed up. I remember when she said that “interracial relationship” comment, too.
@@SOULarLioness Right ?!! Like if you're only have one Black grandmother and everybody else is white or mixed, you're not Black ! It's not that hard to understand!
I'm so glad I listened to the entire video definitely needed all the gems drop by everyone in this video. The part about transitioning was my favorite. Going through it at the moment; turning 30, heartbreak, at crossroads career wise. I feel like a Phoenix trying to rise from the ashes.
wow, loved the conversation! just listening to this, so thought provoking and victoria monet has such beautiful energy and seems so grounded and love love love when she talks about life and the journey. She really is doing her thing!!!! thank you for this beautiful conversation, feel really blessed to have heard this and wish victoria monet nothing but the best in her career, she will go really far, congrats!
what an insightful episode ♥ the way you all navigated this episode demonstrates the intentionality and care that you all posses and I appreciate this interview very much, thank you
Omg! I loved this episode! Victoria is such a beauty and as you guys stated “a creative artist” ❤️ always love and look forward to Nice & Neat Thursdays!
Î look her to this lady +how she entered thee game + î actually admire thee same influences being soft spoken with thee power of words + thee beauty of art! Yess! Prince was always ahead of his time sonically + î agree authenticity will always align life. Lauryn Hill is a prime example of a mother in music + it's actually so necessary for that type of influence in music period. Women are teachers even wiser with mothers. And î just got to the part about Lauryn Hill as Î was typing this. I absolutely thought of her setting that precedent. Moon energy most definitely just brings out thee creativity those unseen vibes m÷ as an artist definitely look for too.
I enjoyed this podcast. I love her as an artist and seeing this interview is really inspiring. She’s inspiring and serene. Thank you guys for creating this platform.
This was amazing:)) just one thing! The audio was really quiet and i struggled to hear all of what was said in my car. May be different with headphones but just to keep in mind:)
Love. Love. Your podcast. Always looking forward to listen your perspective on things. I was wondering though, how come the sound is coming through super quiet because my volume is on the max and I can't hear. But when the ads come on, it scares the living creature out of me. I noticed this was the same with other vids too. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
Great interview! Honestly it was kind of hard to watch because of the audio, I switched from my laptop to my phone and it was still pretty low. Keep up the good work though guys

Hope the trend continues.
I just love this woman’s vibe, voice, and songwriting! 🤎🤎🤎
She has an absolutely beautiful singing voice
*speaking but both apply
Both her singing and speaking voice are angelic.
SIDE NOTE: Victoria's hair is SO beautifulllllllllllllllllllllll!
It goes perfect with her skin, right!? I’ve been wanting that color now for this summer 😍
great episode! I loved Victoria’s analogy with taking the street vs the freeway. I needed to hear that. It’s so easy to feel pressured by a self-imposed timeline that you overlook the development & lessons that come while you’re putting in the work.

Cardi identifies as a black woman… however she doesn’t really come to mind when I think of black women. So I get what Victoria meant 🤷🏽♀️.
I definitely understood why she said that.
Cardi doesn’t identify herself as a black woman ! She has always said she’s a Latina with African/black ancestors
Cardi didn’t always identify as a black woman though. Remember she described her & Offset’s relationship as “an interracial relationship”. So yeah, I def get where Vic is coming from.

Ahhhhhh she’s so beautiful and insightful, a this was a pleasure to listening to
I live for Victoria!!!!!! Her success is so inspiring & she reminds me SO MUCH of myself!!!! I pray continuous success and happiness for her!!! 💕
I'm so glad I listened to the entire video definitely needed all the gems drop by everyone in this video. The part about transitioning was my favorite. Going through it at the moment; turning 30, heartbreak, at crossroads career wise. I feel like a Phoenix trying to rise from the ashes.

This was amazing:)) just one thing! The audio was really quiet and i struggled to hear all of what was said in my car. May be different with headphones but just to keep in mind:)
great interview!
LMFAOOOOO the cardi meg moment took me outttt
44:14-44:33 that analogy was fire S/O 2 Queen V
can you guys turn the volume up in the mics
or talk more directly into the mics. maybe even speak up.
This was excellent
Okay we need another one
The head bobs at the beginning need to be a gif 😂
Really dope interview 👏🏻
Love. Love. Your podcast. Always looking forward to listen your perspective on things. I was wondering though, how come the sound is coming through super quiet because my volume is on the max and I can't hear. But when the ads come on, it scares the living creature out of me. I noticed this was the same with other vids too. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
Thank you!
Had to get on my other channel and give this a thimbs up cause yeah!
Amazing advice!!
With the Cardi thing. Dominican is an ethnicity not a race, so she’s Hispanic but that don’t mean she’s black😭😭🤎
Great interview! Honestly it was kind of hard to watch because of the audio, I switched from my laptop to my phone and it was still pretty low. Keep up the good work though guys
I loved this episode!
Had me taking notes at the end 😂
I like the opening song on this podcast. Can someone please tell me the name of the song?
'I been on a roll. Where you been?'
Love this episode but was so hard to hear her mic ☹️
