Victoria Monét, Usher Debut New Duet, “SOS (Sex On Sight)”
Victoria Monét and Usher have brought back baby-making R&B with their highly-anticipated duet, “SOS (Sex On Sight).”
Fresh off of their respective, meteoric years, the newly-minted Grammy-winning Monét grabbed the veteran crooner for the sultry ballad intended to soundtrack lovemaking.
“’SOS (Sex On Sight)’ is about desire. It’s about the urgency you feel when you need some love, physical touch and quality attention,” Monét explained in a statement.
She continued, “Sometimes that desire can feel as urgent as being rescued from a natural disaster, or in this case rescued from your own sensual urges. Just like a storm, SOS summons and forewarns a lover of the rainfall that is to come and welcomes the beautiful relief from that desire. It feels romantic, playful, sultry and direct. Based in fantasy and the warmest tones of R&B. It feels timeless and we hope you enjoy the escape!”
“SOS” carries signature elements from the decorated producer, Camper, as well as calls attention to Monét’s witty, flirtatious wordplay as she sings, “Wonder which of my lips you gon’ be your first kiss/ doesn’t matter cause they both gonna fit you perfect.” Usher’s hypnotizing vocals complement Monét’s, and all in all, this record is really one of them ones you won’t be able to stop playing.
The duet comes after fans began requesting one following Monét’s spotlight moment during the penultimate night of Usher’s Las Vegas residency. Earlier this year, she and Teyana Taylor paid homage to Usher with their enthralling performance of “Bad Girl” at the 2024 BET Awards when he was being honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award.
