Victoria Monét "On My Mama" Official Lyrics & Meaning | Genius Verified

Victoria Monét is back at Genius. This time around, she is breaking down her hit song "On My Mama." The singer-songwriter is one of the most nominated artists at the 2024 GRAMMY Awards (7) and this empowering track is a big reason why.
"On My Mama" is up for "Best R&B Song" and "Record of the Year" but it's also special to Monét because of what it represents.
"When I wrote 'On My Mama,' I didn't feel like any of the lyrics," she tells Genius. "To go into the studio with a mind of self-doubt, self-judgement, and then for it to be one of the biggest things to ever happen to me, it just shows me God laughs at you. He’s like, 'You don’t know anything, watch this!'"

I'm so glad this finally came out but why was it not out months ago, when the song was hot and everywhere??

[@jazzyj904]

It’s Grammy nominated. Everything doesn’t have to be out while the song is “hot”. That’s how things burn out quickly.

[@lillydior]

[@user-hl7vt1gj8f]

Congratulations Cutie Mama! You are such a gem to this generation's music scene. Since my early 20s, year after year I've been adoring & trying to put other people onto your music and your star power. It is so satisfying to see you reach new levels of success and still explore different sounds and push yourself creatively while doing so. While this isn't one my favorite song of yours (The Original Jaguar Album is still untouchable lol) nonetheless so grateful the additional exposure and opportunities this song has afforded you. So glad to see a rising music star who has so many electrifying elements to their charm: quality songwriting, top tier dancing, your look is a gorgeous addition to the scene, and your sweet spirit shines so bright. I love a confident artist, and a woman who is unapologetically herself. You embody this in a sophistication that creates such a dazzaling radiance each time you are in front of a camera or on stage. Congrats Ms. Mesmerizing Monet! Can't wait to see what else you have in store for us on your artistic journey! Enjoy your journey! & Thanks for sharing your gifts with us!
