Victoria Monét, On My Mama | Track Review 🎵

R&B singer/songwriter Victoria Monét brings ample confidence on her fierce single, “On My Mama.”

“Put that on my own mama, on my hood / I look fly, I look good / You can’t touch my bag, wish you could / I look fly, I look too good.” Oh shee-it! Yes, the talented 🎙 Victoria Monét is confident AF on her single, 🎵 “On My Mama”.  Basically, you can’t touch her – she’s the sugar honey iced tea! On this fab record, she gets a groovy, soulful backdrop courtesy of  🎛 Deputy and Jeff “Gitty” Gitelman.  It’s not all neo-soul vibes though as 🎙 Chalie Boy brings the hip-hop swagger in the post-chorus, gassing up Ms. Monét ⛽️.  While the chorus (excerpted above) takes the cake, EVERYTHING about “On My Mama” is the cat’s meow 🐈.

Monét has opted against being humble – an understatement.  “Tell me, is you down / ‘Cause I’m tryna go up tonight,” she sings in the first verse, continuing, “Hoes and hoochies left and right / I just wanna live in a fantasy / I think we deserve it, right?” WOO! Furthermore, she brags, “Sex game go stupid / Snappin’ like a toothpick /… Might be too fine to hit it from behind” Lawd Jesus! As untouchable as she is,  There is no way you can deny how entertaining she sounds on 🎵 “On My Mama”. Is it too much? Perhaps in real life, yes, but for the purposes of a contemporary R&B record where fierceness is desired, NO! Great, great song!
