I kinda knew since her Rolling Stone showed up earlier this week that Janelle Monae was going to show up again soon. It just was basically a given. It seemed very unlikely that her new album would drop and would somehow suck. Especially given how very good Make Me Feel was and how amazing the video was. It just seemed very unlikely that somehow the album would be terrible when three singles in everything was good. And I am here to tell you the album is good. I really dig it. It made me think of Prince, as did Make Me Feel. That isn’t to say it sounds like Prince but it made me think of him. Which might be the highest compliment I can give an artist. There is just a feeling of this being some amazing fusion of a million influences to create something that is magic. So I like it. And I like her. So she’s here because how could she not be? Today I want to fuck Janelle Monae.
