Prince backstage at Montreux

Prince was backstage during Janelle Monae's performance at Montreaux. So was Quincy Jones.

You need to. Go find The ArchAndroid, and listen front to back, non stop. You'll be doin' yourself a favor.

Agreed. Metropolis, and The ArchAndroid, and 3 parts of a 4 part suite she has conceived. You'll notice on the album covers, four dots on the lower right corner. They're shaded into show what Suite you're on. Metropolis is Suite 1. ArchAndroid is 2 and 3. In fact, you can split the album down the middle, and just listen to either Suite 2 or Suite 3 on its own. Each one starts with it's own "Overture", as a point of reference.

Suite 4 is still to be released, but I would imagine we won't see/hear it until sometime in summer 2011 at the earliest. Just a guess though.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

She's touring Canada and Europe so keep an eye out for her. She'll be making waves over there soon.

I find Janelle Monae exciting, interesting, talented, energetic... but...

and I'm not hating here...

But there is just something... annoying looking about her.

And it's not that she's a little weird and kooky. God knows, half the musicians I'm into are eclectic "weirdos"...

Maybe its her hair or facial expressions...

But she's just...

annoying looking.

Having said that, I still think she's great.
