00:00What's up, SNSGU?
00:02This is MonaLeo with VibeCheck.
00:06If my journey into motherhood was a mixtape,
00:09the title would be, ooh child, the ghetto.
00:16My opening bar would be, I love my baby
00:23more than anything in the world.
00:26Hopefully one day I have a baby girl
00:30because I want to have a girl as well.
00:32I need a, I just, let me not say a mini me
00:35because it actually be pissing me off
00:36when people be like, oh my, my, my daughter,
00:39she's my mini me.
00:40I want her to be herself, obviously.
00:43I would, I want her to be herself,
00:44but I just excited to share the pink,
00:48the pink vibes with my, with a little girl.
00:52So, but I love my son so much.
00:55My most out of pocket lyric.
00:58To this day, I still be thinking,
00:59maybe I shouldn't have said that.
01:02Is definitely, you gonna be with Tupac
01:05when I come shoot up that studio.
01:07I should have thought twice about that.
01:09I don't know why I said that.
01:11Like I said earlier, I was on the Don Julio.
01:14I was just in the studio, mad, tripping.
01:18You know, it's a bar though.
01:20Don't, you know, I don't really like to remig on the bars
01:23because the bars are the bars for sure.
01:25But you know, it's just one of those things that,
01:31maybe that was, eh, I could have said something else
01:34right there for sure.
01:36What I think, what I wanted to say,
01:37and this is what I almost changed the lyric to,
01:39but I just, I hate going back and changing lyrics
01:41because it's like, it changes the feel
01:43and authenticity for me.
01:45What I was thinking about saying was,
01:46you gonna be with your grandma
01:48when I come shoot up that studio.
01:49But it didn't, it didn't hit the same.
01:55Let's move on.
01:56A sound or a genre that I low-key want to get into
02:03that people wouldn't expect would definitely be country.
02:08I feel like maybe people expect that
02:09because I'm from Texas.
02:10I'm super down South, super just country, everything.
02:12But it would definitely be country.
02:14And I really, really, really love indie music.
02:18I love indie music, but, and I also love rock music.
02:23I also love pop.
02:24I just feel like anything that's not hip-hop and R&B,
02:29because you know how people get,
02:31I feel like I'm interested in.
02:33And I feel like people, they always be like,
02:35well, why is she getting into this?
02:37Why is she, but I just want to preface everybody
02:39and let them know I'm interested in all the things.
02:42So you never know what the hell I might do.
02:44I'm in wedding planning mode right now.
02:48So the song that I'm going to walk down the aisle to
02:51is going to be Beyonce one plus one.
02:54I've always, I knew I was going to walk down the aisle to that song
02:58when I was in middle school, high school, when I loved that song.
03:01So I know I'm going to walk down the aisle to that.
03:04And then my first dance, we're still trying to figure it out.
03:08We're still trying to figure out what the first dance song is going to be.
03:12But I know it's going to be a lot of Beyonce at the wedding.
03:14First of all, I didn't even realize how much Beyonce is going to be at this wedding.
03:18Me and my dad, we've already picked our father-daughter dance song
03:22and it's Protector by Beyonce from Calvary Carter.
03:26It's such a beautiful song and it makes my dad so emotional,
03:30because I know that's how he feels about his children as well.
03:32So that's the song that we unanimously decided was going to be our father-daughter dance song.
03:37So it's going to be real emotional out there.
03:41We are going to be crying, including Essence.
03:43A song that I feel like I have that taught me something in the process of me writing it.
03:48I have a song called Sober Mind.
03:50And when I was writing the song, I had an idea in mind as to what I wanted the song to sound like.
03:56But I remember in the midst of me writing it, I was getting so choked up
03:59because I was talking to my supporters and I'm trying to motivate my supporters.
04:04But in the midst of that, I feel like I was talking to myself.
04:08And I feel like that about a lot of the songs that I write.
04:11But specifically in the second verse of that song, it's just very motivational
04:17and it's just reminding myself that I am exactly who I think I am
04:22and to continue going at my own pace.
04:25Besides yourself, who is your Femme C Big Three and who is your dream collaboration?
04:36My Femme C Big Three.
04:41Big Three, by the way.
04:43Femme C.
04:44Okay, I'm going with Nicki Minaj, obviously.
04:48Megan Thee Stallion, obviously.
04:50And it might be controversial.
04:55Beyonce.
04:56Beyonce be low-key rapping.
04:58And I need y'all to put some respect on Beyonce's pin.
05:02And on her little rap singing board, she's actually been doing a double-time shit for a really long time.
05:07So Beyonce is one of those artists that she's good.
05:12She's good.
05:13If Beyonce ever wanted to just straight-up rap, a lot of us would be scared.
05:17That's my Femme C Big Three.
05:20And my dream collaboration, of course, is Beyonce.
05:24I feel like she is the pinnacle of music.
05:27She is the standard.
05:29She's the one.
05:30I would love to work with Beyonce one day in music.
05:35And I may be a little biased because I'm from Mo City.
05:39But I feel like the Mo City Dying Freestyle is the Houston song, for me anyway.
05:45I'm a Ridgemont baby.
05:46I'm a Ridgemont four girl.
05:48Like, that's my jam.
05:50That's my anthem.
05:53Mona Leo with Vibe Check.
05:55And I'll see y'all next time.
