Victoria Monét – Party Girls (ft. Buju Banton) (Audio, Lyrics, Video)

Victoria Monét premieres the music video for the “Party Girls” song featuring Buju Banton. Listen, stream, read the lyrics, buy the track produced by Ego, D’Mile & Dready.

Victoria Monét is ready to set the summer ablaze. After dropping off her well-received “Smoke” collaboration with Lucky Daye back in March, the R&B songstress returned yesterday (May 10) with her latest single, “Party Girls.” The release boasts an assist from Buju Banton and was produced by renowned hitmakers D’Mile, Yonatan “SDTRK” Ayal, and Dready.

She accompanied the song with an adrenaline-packed visual to match the track’s vibrant energy. Equipped with choreography by Sean Bankhead, the Meji Alabi-directed offering captures the essence of a lively Jamaican dancehall party. On the song, the two artists fuse their vocals together to lure listeners in with their irresistible opening hook:

“No more backs on the wall (No) come pull me close to you/ Rock me deep into the morning (Rock), ’cause by sunrise I’ll be gone/ I wanna be leaving with someone, I’ll be here for a good time and you know we both want it”

“‘Party Girls’ is an ode to women around the world who keep celebrations alive,” said the “Coastin’” singer via press release. “If you recall any social gathering, nightlife extravaganza, or day party, you’ll likely recall a moment where a woman made it so much more exciting! I wanted to make a song giving credit where it’s due, while simultaneously curating a sensual Caribbean-infused R&B song to continue the fun. I hope this song makes you feel sexy, empowered, and appreciated!”

Monét’s last full-length offering was 2020’s JAGUAR, a nine-track project that boasted fan-favorites like “Touch Me,” “A** Like That,” and “Experience” featuring Khalid and SG Lewis. Outside of her own releases, Monét is responsible for co-creating many chart-topping hits, penning songs for artists like Chlöe x Halle and Selena Gomez.

Lyrics

[Intro: Buju Banton]
Been a long time and now mi say this a big tune in all di world
[?]
Lighta, lighta

[Verse 1: Victoria Monét, Buju Banton]
No more backs on the wall (No)
Come pull me close to you (Rock)
Rock me deep into the morning (Rock)
‘Cause by sunrise I’ll be gone
I wanna be leaving with someone
I’ll here for a good time and you know we both want it

[Verse 2: Victoria Monét]
And plus I like to sightsee and if you invite me
I’ll very likely pull up where you at
You got the right fee or if you entice me
End of the night might sit this on your lap
Staring at me too long might get you in trouble
I’m hypnotizing, I’m just talking facts
Nightly you’ll sight me anywhere you might be

[Chorus: Victoria Monét & Buju Banton, Buju Banton]
Can’t forget about the party girls out lighting up the world
Let’s hear it for the party girls out lighting up the world (All the party girls)
Ah-ah, ah-ah (Ah), ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

[Interlude: Buju Banton]
Now from this tune come on me want everybody in the dancehall right now tonight
Lighta inna the sky
If you’re with your lover, if you’re with your girl, if you’re with your brother, if you’re with your sista
Mayday

[Verse 3: Buju Banton, Victoria Monét & Buju Banton]

We say no low vibes come mek we lift this higher
Bun dung the whole club and set the roof on fire

[Chorus: Victoria Monét & Buju Banton, Buju Banton]
Can’t forget about the party girls out lighting up the world (Up the world)
