Janelle Monáe is a singer/performer who:

- is an Outkast protege
- moonwalks better than MJ
- has a kick-ass pompadour
- is writing an album based on Fritz Lang's Metropolis
- is releasing her album over several months as four staged EP "suites"
- thinks she's a robot from the future
- in fact, has the most convoluted performer fiction this side of Gackt
- knows that what we need more of is non-linear gothic drama hyper-cycles

Pffft. I knew about her since she's an Atlanta native, and have in fact seen her live about 2 1/2 years ago.
I just didn't want to see noted Creed fan and alleged black person Maurice Cooks weigh in on her.

Yeah I don't know how people on here missed this one, she seems to tick a lot of boxes.

Yeah, I was hooked on her for a while. I still listen to her songs every now and then.

Same here, especially when it's hiphop related.

lordy. It's like Devo meets Fifth Element meets Little Richard meets Tina Turner. And that's without the sound turned up. I can only imagine what kind of noise he/she/it makes.
-
she's just been added to the Of Montreal show next Friday.
I will report back on her live set.

FUCKING A++++++++
More, I want more.

augh no fuckin way! i really wish i lived on the coast :(

good moon walk, but not as good as mj... sorry. :(
-
god fucking dammit this girl is insane
do whatever WHATEVER it takes to see her life
it's like kool keith mythology meets james brown performance spectacle with some truly impressive chops.
for Of Montreal's encore she came out and her band played Bowie's Moonage Daydream (i think).
during one of her songs she literally sang and painted a picture with oilpaints and then gave it to someone when the show was over. she's just insanely talented and well worth watching. would love to see her perform with a full band as opposed to a guitarist, a drummer and a sampler/keyboardist

Damn, that's pure hotness. Did it actually look good?
-

it was impressive as fuck.
gf bought the lp today

Holy fucking FUCK! that was an AMAZING song and video!! A+ Performer.
She's got the whole package!
(Was Heroes' Haitian dude in the video?)
I think maybe that was Sun Ra in the background. He returned to Earth with a bunch of robots.
