Ratings Game Music
Victoria Monét is going to be in the music industry for a long time and I don’t think she will disappoint. I haven’t heard any of her other projects, but solely based on this one, I would say that she has carved a space for herself in the music industry. Whenever I do hear a song of hers, it doesn’t take long for me to recognize her voice, cadence, etc.
