Victoria Monét Releases A Jaguar II Christmas: The Orchestral Arrangements
Victoria Monét has added a new holiday release to her catalog, extending her Jaguar era with new formats of fan-favorite tracks and continuing her tradition of festive releases. On Wednesday (Dec. 11), the Grammy-winning musician released A Jaguar II Christmas: The Orchestral Arrangements via Lovett Music/RCA Records.
The Transformation of Songs
The album transforms songs such as “On My Mama” and “I’m The One” into orchestral works, paired with holiday classics. Tracks like “Smoke” and “Hollywood” beautifully intertwine festive staples such as “Let It Snow” and “Carol of the Bells,” highlighting Monét’s ability to reimagine her music through a holiday lens.
Crafting A Jaguar II Christmas
A Jaguar II Christmas: The Orchestral Arrangements, crafted by Monét, was arranged and conducted by Maurice “Pirahnahead” Herd and played by his Soulchestra in Detroit. According to a press statement, the album aims to further evolve the sonic landscape of the Jaguar Era, inviting fans to embrace the season through bold, genre-defying artistry.
“I hope this fills you and your family with much-needed holiday cheer and the Christmas spirit,” shared the 35-year-old on Instagram announcing the album.
Expanding Creativity
A Jaguar II Christmas: The Orchestral Arrangements is not the only expansion of the singer’s creativity this year. In October, the mother of one released her first children’s book Everywhere You Are illustrated by Alea Marley. The lyrical picture book is described as being “perfect for children with separation anxiety, while also offering some healing for hard-working parents,” by Penguin Random House publishing.
“Reading the drafts to Hazel gave me a sense of peace, knowing she can understand this sentiment and carry mommy with her wherever she goes,” the “Moment” performer shared with PEOPLE Magazine of time spent with her 3-year-old daughter.
