Victoria Monet Responds To Concerns Over AI Singer
Victoria Monét is adding her voice to the growing debate around AI-generated artists. Fans recently raised concerns about similarities between her brand and the new AI singer Xania Monét. The Victoria Monét AI discussion picked up speed as people noticed the name resemblance and the stylistic overlap that could easily confuse listeners.
Victoria Monét, known for her vocal control, songwriting skill, and recent Billboard wins, told Vanity Fair she still questions whether her likeness influenced Xania’s creation. She said she never approved the use of her name in any prompt. Even so, the rising confusion feels unsettling. Victoria explained that once a name begins to trend, people may blend it with hers. She called that mix-up far from ideal for her brand.
Fans are not stopping with Victoria. They have shared comparisons between Xania Monét and several R&B women, including K. Michelle, Muni Long, Kehlani, and Tamar Braxton. These conversations show how uneasy many listeners feel about AI models that appear to borrow from real artists. Many singers worry that AI could imitate established careers without credit or permission.
Xania’s creator and songwriter, Telisha “Nikki” Jones, rejected those claims. She said Xania stands as her own persona and does not mirror anyone in the industry. Jones also responded to online criticism and legal threats. She praised the artists mentioned but insisted the AI singer does not pull from their identities or creative work.
This debate highlights a larger concern in the music industry. Artists want strong protections for their names, voices, and legacies as AI becomes more common. Many fear that technology could cross lines that should protect their originality and personal likeness.
As the AI conversation continues, one thing is clear: artists want a future where innovation and respect can coexist.
