Victoria Monét Has Made a ‘Classic’ Love Song Anita Baker Is ‘Proud of’
The “Sweet Love” icon praised Monét’s song “How Does It Make You Feel” and called it a “melodic masterpiece”
Victoria Monét, who garnered seven nominations for the 2024 Grammys, has received the ultimate nod from R&B legend Anita Baker.
In February 2022 — prior to the release of Monét’s debut studio album, Jaguar II, this summer — the singer took to X (formerly Twitter) to write, “I wanna make a classic love song that Anita Baker would be proud of.”
On Thursday, a year and half later, Baker replied to the post and told Monét, “You’ve Already Done it.” The “Sweet Love” icon added, “By Using *ALL of Your Gifts. *How does it feel* is A Melodic Masterpiece. CONGRATULATIONS on ALL your, well deserved Nominations & Accolades & Keeping R&B in Your World/Your Generation.”
“How Does It Make You Feel” is the sixth track from Jaguar II, which Rolling Stone praised as “the crowning crystallization of an R&B resurgence that has been in the air since SZA’s SOS began to dominate the charts last December.” The album was also featured on the publication’s “100 Best Albums of 2023” and was touted as a “knockout of epic proportions.”
In response to Baker’s words of support, Monét said her post was “an honor and a dream come true.” The Grammy-nominee added, “My gratitude for you and your art has always been immense and now to speak to you through mine feels so golden!! I love you to the stars and I thank you for these flowers! I’m in awe hope to hug you soon.”
Monét recently sat down with Kelly Rowland for Rolling Stone’s Musicians on Musicians issue. When asked by Rowland which track on her debut album was her favorite, Monét said, “It changes all the time.”
“This project is not, like, a playlist for a certain mood,” she continued. “It jumps from me talking about shaking ass and being outside to being completely in love. It’s a new version of Victoria. And my voice has changed since having (her daughter) Hazel.”
