Speaker 4: And he has I'm just saying, like the he's smarter

182
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 4: than the other guys. Is that the guy guy?

183
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 1: Is he at least a little smart or Okay?

184
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,200

185
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 4: can't come to him to talk to him business. But

186
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 4: he definitely physically simulates me and financially too, so I can't.

187
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do together form the perfect

188
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,200

Speaker 4: If I'm gonna go do something like the beach that

00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 4: doesn't take too much common sense, then I'll take Guy B.

00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 9: I love this.

238
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 2: This is how we get it started. No, but I

239
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 2: mean let's get into it though, because hello, you're doing

240
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 2: headlining tour and that's what we really are toasting too.

241
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 2: And it's so in like a minute for real, like

242
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 2: how did you feel when that happened? And did you

243
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 2: know that was going to happen?

244
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 9: I did not know that was going to happen.

245
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 10: So what we did was every show went on sale

246
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,199
Speaker 10: locally at ten am. So as they were selling out,

247
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,839
Speaker 10: my manager was calling me from like so it's like

248
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 10: Atlanta show all.

249
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 9: The way to the West coast, like okay.

250
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 10: This sold out, this sold out, the tickets are gone,

251
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 10: and it was just surreal. But very affirming to know

252
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 10: that people really, if you give them the opportunity, they'll

253
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 10: they'll support you, because I see on Twitter people are

254
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 10: always like you're underrated, and it's like different when people

255
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 10: are just tweeting and talking right versus when they actually

256
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 10: show up for you and.

257
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 2: Like, and I think that even just everything you've done

258
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 2: before this, because you know, obviously I've been following your

259
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 2: career friends time, and I've been seeing and here's a

260
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 2: fun fact that people may not know. At one point

261
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 2: I tried to sign her, and I remember that he

262
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 2: wanted to put her underneath his label, you know, and

263
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 2: you tell us.

264
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 9: About that, because I didn't.

265
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:54,719
Speaker 1: I didn't know that I.

266
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 10: Used to be signed to Atlantic Records, and I feel

267
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 10: like maybe that's how we connected.

268
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:58,439
Speaker 1: That's how we connected.

269
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 10: And I was doing a lot of demos, like hook demos,

270
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 10: because I had looked at Bruno Mars mbob and how

271
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 10: that song did so well, and then Bruno was able

272
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 10: to take that record and make his own career. So

273
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 10: I was like, I'm gonna just spend a bunch of

274
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 10: time just doing hooks. So I was just writing hooks

275
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,559
Speaker 10: only I would just not waste any time with the

276
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 10: verse just hooks, and Atlantic had a lot of rappers,

277
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 10: and so I was submitting a bunch of hooks and

278
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 10: I would try to sing them well enough that maybe

279
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 10: some rappers will keep me on the hooks. So this

280
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 10: is why what started like the hook era for me.

281
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 10: So I ended up being with NAS on a song

282
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 10: with Nas and TI and I wrote song for Meet

283
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 10: Mill and Mary J just like a hook era for

284
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 10: me MGK as well. So TI and I were collaborating

285
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 10: a lot with Tommy Brown at the time, and so

286
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 10: he was kind of showing me the ropes. He let

287
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 10: me do a couple of shows with him singing the

288
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 10: hooks that I was a part of, and he offered

289
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 10: to sign me. I always felt like it just wasn't

290
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 10: the right time for me to be signed to anybody.

291
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 10: And I also thought of myself, like, if I'm going

292
00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 10: to be signed right now, I'd like to do it

293
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 10: myself and I have my own little in print or something, Okay,

294
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 10: So I just wanted to just wait it out a

295
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:05,719
Speaker 10: little bit more.

296
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 6: But he's really confident to wait it out and know

297
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 6: and be really sure of yourself.

298
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 9: Definitely, I just had a vision.

299
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: All right, we are talking to Victoria Monette. And you're

300
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 1: an only child, right.

301
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,440
Speaker 10: Yeah, I was born an only child, but I've discovered

302
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 10: I've met my dad in my twenties, and i discovered

303
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 10: that I.

304
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 9: Have a sister, so I'm not an only child. Have

305
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 9: you met her?

306
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 10: Yes, beautiful, really hard at first because it's new information,

307
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 10: where like she was surprised and it was just a

308
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 10: whole thing, y'all.

309
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 9: Sister, You know what when we met.

310
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:41,319
Speaker 1: No one was checking.

311
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 10: So it's kind of like we've grown together and so

312
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 10: she's super supportive and it's a lovely sisterhood, even though

313
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 10: she lives in Atlanta.

314
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,679
Speaker 1: And you also went to a performing arts school.

315
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 9: Right, Yes, I begged my mom to go. I literally

316

343
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,920

344
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 2: you were pregnant. What was that like, because that was

345
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 2: something you wanted?

346
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 10: Really crazy, It was unexpected. But the first thing I

347
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 10: started feeling was my breast. I was like something tender,

348
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 10: new and different. When it first said positive, I was

349
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 10: like like laughing. It was like no, So I took

350
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 10: another one, and it was in a pandemic. I was

351
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 10: trying to find a nice way to tell my boyfriend

352
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 10: because he had literally just asked me to be his

353
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 10: girlfriend the day before.

354
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 6: Oh.

355
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: She was like, whoa perfect timing, right.

356
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 10: I was like, you must have felt something because you

357
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 10: asked me the right time. So I wrote him a

358
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 10: card that I just had in the house. You know,

359
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 10: we couldn't go to the store at the time to

360
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 10: get anything, so I was like, i'm's going right in here.

361
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:42,239
Speaker 9: I was like, June.

362
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: Third, you made me your girlfriend.

363
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 9: June fourth, I made you.

364
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 1: It waste no time, literally one day.

365
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 9: So but it was really cool.

366
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 1: So he asked you to be his girlfriend.

367
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 10: So he wrote something on the on a mirror, and

368
00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 10: he was asking me something about what I like to be,

369
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 10: and then he something like would you like if I

370
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 10: called you my girlfriend?

371
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 9: And he wrote like a heart.

372
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 10: And then our initials on really cute and innocent.

373
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 2: That is so sweet because I feel like people don't

374
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 2: ask that anymore.

375
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 9: You know, people are like, we just go together. Yeah?

376
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 1: Did your mom?

377
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 5: Did?

00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: She always like him?

379
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 10: She met him pretty early on in our dating and

380
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 10: she liked him.

381
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 6: Yeah.

382
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 9: She was like we cud, Yeah, he's look for.

383
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 8: How do you manage being busy and being a mom?

384
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 9: How do you manage not feeling guilty or do you

385
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 9: feel guilty? I sure do feel guilty. I feel guilty

386
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 9: all the time.

387
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 10: But I think my family reassures me that what I'm

388
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 10: doing is it's for her, it's for the family, it's

389
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 10: for the long one, for her future. So I try

390
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 10: to snap out of that really quick, and I also

391
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 10: try to bring her most places that I can so

392
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 10: I can combine my work and family life. So I

393
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:55,840
