Victoria Monét continues her streak of perfection with the recent release of her music video for fan favorite and KAYTRANADA produced track, “Alright,” from her 2023 album JAGUAR II. Teaming back up with the notably impressive Sean Bankhead, who choreographed her “On My Mama” video as well, and enlisting the direction of Dave Meyers, Monét takes the lead in one of the best music videos of 2024 so far.

Victoria Monét demonstrates her deep musical understanding and appreciation in her latest video, where she pays homage to the legendary pop stars of the ’90s and 2000s. Her meticulous attention to detail and the influences she draws from are evident, particularly in her tribute to Janet Jackson. By incorporating iconic dance routines, fashion, and visual aesthetics from that era, Monét not only showcases her own artistry but also honors the groundbreaking contributions of these pop icons. This blend of nostalgia and innovation highlights Monét’s status as a true student of music.

In discussing the video itself, Monét has stated, ““Alright” is about liberation and freedom at its core! This video is a visual presentation of that sentiment through freedom of movement and fluidity between masculine and feminine energy..” She mentions her adoration for Meyers and Bankhead and continues on to say, “Plus, EVERY single person who had their hands on this visual was extremely passionate from inception, and we all worked really hard to bring it to life! They showed up with their A game surpassing what we all imagined. Serious teamwork! We all patiently and meticulously crafted it and are extremely excited to release it into the world! There’s no better month to release this visual than Pride Month, Black Music Month, and the beginning of summer ’24! I can’t wait to see where dance artists and the ballroom culture take it.“
