A Jaguar II Christmas: The Orchestral Arrangements, Victoria Monet (RCA)

I'm not all that familiar with Victoria Monet, I admit, but she dropped a hip-hop album called Jaguar II back in 2023, followed up with a deluxe release as is the current fashion for those who have the fan base to support such a move, and now in 2024 has dropped an orchestral instrumental version of the same album heavily medleyed with familiar Christmas songs. The Christmas tunes aren't explicitly called out in the playlist (except "I'm the One (Jingle Bells)"), but trust me, they're all over this, when they're not using themes from the original Jaguar II album. The song titles are essentially derived from the original album's songs, like "It's a Celebration Every Time It Snows," "Cadillac Christmas," "How Does It Make You Feel," "On My Mama (Christmas Medley)," "Stop (Askin' Me 4Gifts)," "Christmas in Hollywood," and "Merry Christmas Dan." If R'nB flavored instrumentals that only occasionally touch on the holiday is your jam, then I guess this is for you. Downloads and streaming available.
