MUSIC: Janelle Monae

Two nights ago, I went to see Janelle Monáe perform her latest album, The ArchAndroid. Not only does this girl have an amazing voice, but she’s got mooooooves! She really knows how to put on a great show. I took lots of video, but unfortunately the heavy-thumpin’ bass ruined the sound. I guess my little Flip can’t handle the beat!

Originally from Kansas City, then Atlanta, Monáe has a distinct voice and style, both of which are reminiscent of a time when recording artists actually had to have talent. (I’m talking to you Ke:(ha.) You can’t help but smile (and dance) when you watch her perform. She’s a true talent.

You can buy The ArchAndroid here. But, don’t even try to step to me and MattB about doing the Tightrope...unless you wanna get suuurved!
