VICTORIA MONÉT FT BUJU BANTON – PARTY GIRLS (Michaël Brun Dancehall Remix)
American singer Victoria Monét recently released her Dancehall-infused track Party Girls featuring Buju Banton swiftly followed by this summer smash dancehall remix courtesy of Michaël Brun.
Party Girls is the second offering from Monét’s Jaguar II, her RCA debut due this summer. It is the second instalment in a Jaguar series she started in 2020.
Co-produced by Dernst ‘D’Mile’ Emile, the song entered the Billboard Hot R&B Songs chart at No. 25. It was Monét’s second career entry on that chart and Buju’s first.
Monét revealed how D’Mile’s instrumental, hints of Dave Kelly’s Showtime riddim (1997), set the ball rolling for the song.
“When D’Mile played the bassline is what started the song, and I just heard it differently than he heard it. He was thinking the musical ‘elevated soul’ cloth that we usually play with, but then when he played it, I was like, I just hear something else. And eventually, when the hook was done and it had verse melodies, I was like, I really would love if Buju was on this,” –
