Grammy-Winning Artist Victoria Monét Will Give Fans A Chance To Hear Her New Album Through Ray-Ban Meta’s New Glasses – AfroTech


Meta is giving fans a preview of the new Ray-Ban Meta Audio glasses ahead of its release.

As part of ComplexCon’s 10th anniversary celebration, Meta will host an interactive listening lounge at the Los Angeles Convention Center on Oct. 3–4, 2026. 

Guests will have the opportunity to experience the glasses, which are designed with open-ear audio that delivers earbud-quality sound while allowing wearers to remain aware of their surroundings. The glasses also feature AI capabilities.

“Sound is the most important and loved feature of our glasses, so much so that we built an entire new category featuring iconic styles from Ray-Ban. We’re excited to bring music fans a first of its kind experience with Victoria Monet’s new album and experience the glasses before they are available on sale,” said Dave Kaufman, Senior Director of Marketing at Meta.

In addition to celebrating ComplexCon’s anniversary, the lounge will toast to the release of Grammy-winning artist Victoria Monét’s new album, “Frequency of Love,” with a private silent listening session from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. Fans can attend on a first come, first serve basis. 

“On Friday, we are so back,” Monét wrote on Instagram, announcing the album’s Oct. 2 release date.

Monét’s last album, “JAGUAR II,” was released in 2023. Now, fans will have the opportunity to catch up with the singer during a Q&A session at the listening lounge, where she will discuss her latest project.

Throughout ComplexCon weekend, the Ray-Ban Meta lounge will be open to all ComplexCon attendees from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Guests can try on the glasses, listen to Monét’s new album and enter a contest for a chance to win tickets to see the artist on tour.

The Ray-Ban Meta Audio glasses are expected to hit shelves on Oct. 13, 2026, and will be available in the classic Ray-Ban Clubmaster and Burbank frames.

ComplexCon attendees will also have the opportunity to pre-order the glasses onsite. They will also be available through Meta.
