Anyone know what Janelle Monáe was doing at Pailsley Park earlier this week?

... in "this" funky house

Prince saw her gig in Mpls and invited her out to jam afterward.

He's gonna fuck her. Give her a shitty, over-produced song, discard her like an old pair of Cuban boots, and then we'll all have new Prince lore to discuss ad nauseum for another 10 years.

... only thing is she's not that cute

She tweeted:

Artists need inspiration from watching other Artists work. Got it from Our visit @ Paisley Park. Headed 2 Detroit:-)

Lucky, lucky lady.

Doesn't matter what they did.

I'd go to Paisley Park just to empty the trash cans.

Well she's awfully talented, great video of her singing. She's cute, she can dance and Prince enjoyed her show. He showed professional courtesy and they probably both benefitted from the inspiration gained by sharing quick notes.
Who ever posted the first thread on her, thanks. Prince obviously knows talent when he sees it.

Yeap...he sure does....P is the man!

Bohemian67 said:

This list puts that theory into serious question:
Carmen Elektra
Cat
Bria
Apollonia
Matye
The Game Boyz
Wally/Greg

Bohemian67 said:

This statement is seriously flawed.

ernestsewell said:

No one get's things right 100% of the time .....hence your list is void of what is talent .... have you seen SOTT?

Nuff said...

Prince knows what talent is and knows it comes in many forms .... that's why he's the man

Maybe P is tryin to mack on homegirl.

Cat was an outstanding dancer. She begin a few dance moves that are seen as 'Standard' for todays 'krump' dancers

LondonStyle said:

Think again. Prince told many people Cat was "going to be huge", and she was going to be the next big thing w/ her album after she left Prince's employ. We see how that went.

Carmen is no rapper by any means. She's a model.

Bria - boring singer

Apollonia - can't sing, can barely act

Mayte - not a great singer

Wally/Greg, Game Boyz - as if

PurpleLove7 said:

say what??? She is hella cute!!! in fact given the choice between her and all of the fluffed up, over-hyped, fake beauties thrown in my face, she would be on the top of the list quite easliy.

LondonStyle said:

Yeah the list of names might not be as famous or as talented as Prince, but everyone knows their names. Cat was brilliant. She MADE the song Alphabet street with her rap, and the women is so downright gorgeous with that beautiful body that she could move like few others can. Yup one helluva talented lady!

Mayte too, beautiful body, beautiful dancer. Bria can sing for sure and she's another beautiful woman. Prince is a lucky guy This Janelle impresses me, she's got the moves, the grooves and she makes rap sound good. That takes some doing.

BlackandRising said:

That's nice to read. Janelle has a cool look. It's different, and I'm starting to believe her image (I thought it was an affectation at first). But although I'm surprised at his interest, it might be based on her musical style, or the fact that she's 4'11".

BlackandRising said:

I liked Tamar with them thick thighs ... Erp, did I say that out loud? & the Twinz were hell-a-sexy. I have to admit I have not seen a up close photo of her but what I saw I was like "meh" ...

not even.


stripper.

Janelle must have been on cloud nine! What a wonderful experience for a performer

PurpleLove7 said:

The fuck she isn't!

Lucky dame.


Prince has two kinds of proteges; people with genuine talent and people who suck horrendously musically but were probably good in the sack.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!!!

motherfunka said:

meow85 said:
