Janelle Monae - Archandroid


Ooh I downloaded the new Janelle Monae album (currently posted on her myspace). Weee! Here's what Spin's review says:

Monáe can really sing; she could follow in Beyoncé's designer pumps if she wanted, but she's clearing a new path for black female entertainers. She's venturing so far away from soul that she's come back around to it. By finding spirituality in the machine she's imagined for herself, Monáe rewires the one that society has dumped on her.

Lyrics from the new video, Tightrope:

"Do you mind?
If I play the ukulele
Just like a little lady
Do you mind?
If I play the ukulele
Just like a little lady
As I play the ukulele
If I play my ukulele
Just like a little lady"

I always likes that Janelle. She's good people.
