Pynk's video is out! Janelle and Aerosmith, I never thought about this combo tbh. She remains a queen of visuals. I don't get where Grimes is, maybe she helped on the production.
Bish better go the fuq off! Damn Janelle just slay me every time! I am loving all the risks she is taking this era visually and artistically! What a ride she is taking us on! I am so proud of her and I am so glad she is doing this and man o man is she gorgeous! Real black girl magic in that video!
Now that I saw the video multiple times I can say that I don't know if I will survive the dirty computer emotion picture. I agree about the risk factors. Her singing is very Grimes on the verses, I didn't recognize her at first without the video
Her song with Duran Duran was getting a lot of airplay in Italy. I thought Pynk would have been out at this point. I hope she'll release another track before the project drops, Pynk or another one. I'm noticing she's being very quiet for having a project coming out soon. The Grimes thing was leaked for a moment last week on a site but after that there was silence again. We know nothing about the record yet or the visuals. Yes it would have been really cool if she and Michael met. I always thought he would have liked Janelle. Her and Jack White woud be cool too, I would love that. I loved her previous work with Grimes. Recently I thought she and St Vincent could cook something together. Maybe Kendrick Lamar as well?

Wow that is amazing. I found the song on online and fell in love. Duran Duran seem to adore her and enjoyed working with her. Yea I notice she is has been semi quiet lately despite having a new album in the works for releasing. I have been enjoying her interviews though and the inspiration behind this new album. I am sure she will do more promotion once the album drops. I actually like this mysterious route she is going with the promotion and keeping the fans guessing. It is building up anticipation and excitement. I think the Grimes song is hot and the visuals are fire. She is really pushing herself and taking risks this era. I think Michael would have loved her and it would have been interesting to see what songs and concepts they would have came up with together. Janelle reminds me so much of a young MJ/Prince creatively and how she brands herself. I think that is why Prince was so drawn to her because he saw a lot of himself in her. I like to see her work with Kelis as well. She is another great artist and I think her style would go well with Janelle's. Kendrick is a nice mainstream choice.
Kelis would be dope. Yes she's being mysterious about the album. Have you noticed she released the 3 songs in the middle of the project leaving us completely in the dark about the rest? I hope she continues on the pop route.
It's a sample in the song or at least I read so somewhere on a music blog.
But did you listen to the song? It's not a sample, it's not the same lyrics. The most similarity is the word "pink" starting some of the lines in each verse.
Not a sample sorry. It's an interpolation. Aerosmith are credited. Grimes co wrote the song. Production is by her old usual Wondaland team. [Edited 4/11/18 6:08am]
I wonder did Prince's transition help Janelle to come completely out now?
Because she is not leaving ANYTHING to the imagination anymore.
"That mountain top situation is not really what it's all cracked up 2 B when was doing the Purple Rain tour had a lot of people who knew 'll never c again @ the concerts.just screamin n places they thought they was suppose 2 scream."

I don't think they are dating tbh because she's always been very private about her love life even with the boyfriends she had but who knows. I think she's being more open about herself with this album because she doesn’t use an alter ego this time around as a filter. She's just being herself and she looks so free doing so. Who knows if his passing played a part in this evolution, it could be.

After that interview Tessa gave and watching how they interact on the carpet, I don't think they are dating either. Watching interviews of them together and hearing the other talk about the other they seem more like really close friends. Its interesting that people automatically assume that someone must be dating if they are "touchy or feeling" with the other. Most artists are like this with the people they work with, it doesnt mean they are in a relationship. Janet was touchy feely during the 90's with a lot of her female dancers and friends as well.I think people are assuming this because Janelle has never talked about her relationship/relationships. I view Tessa as more so a muse/friend versus her girlfriend but like you said who knows but I strongly don't think so. They do look cute together(another reason why people think that).

Don't forget they are both actors, they are trained to play with the public's perception and Janelle has always been a touchy kind of person, especially with her close friends. I don't know if Tessa is straight, gay or bisexual tbh. I think Janelle is bisexual but right now she's in a relationship with a man. On gossip forums they are entertaining the idea she's in a polyamory relationship with Nate and Tessa. Last week, they were noticing Tessa flew to Miami, while she's in the middle of shooting Creed 2 in Philadelphia, just to celebrate Nate's birthday with the 2 of them. Those 3 sure spend a lot of time together but I don't know, I don't think her and Tessa are involved. Janelle has the time to juggle 2 careers at the same time while dating 2 different people? Must be an hard schedule. They do look cute together,you're right, they look like a lesbian dream couple.
Take this with a grain of salt because it's not official but there are rumours about Brian Wilson, Kamasi Washington and Pharell to be on the album. Kamasi is a great saxophonist, I'm here for that. Wilson is such an underrated legend. Beach Boys's Pet sounds is a masterpiece. About Pharell I hope it will be Neptunes Pharell, reading here and there they were saying the song he's supposed to be on sounded like a Kelis track.

Yes, they are two beautiful woman and all that gossip talk about Janelle being in a polygamy relationship is just crazy. I agree, its more believable to me that she is bi. I think she has been dating that man for a while as well. She honestly just seems to be really good friends with Tessa.

I think Michael would have loved her and it would have been interesting to see what songs and concepts they would have came up with together. Janelle reminds me so much of a young MJ/Prince creatively and how she brands herself. I think that is why Prince was so drawn to her because he saw a lot of himself in her. I like to see her work with Kelis as well. She is another great artist and I think her style would go well with Janelle's. Kendrick is a nice mainstream choice.
Kelis would be dope. Yes she's being mysterious about the album. Have you noticed she released the 3 songs in the middle of the project leaving us completely in the dark about the rest? I hope she continues on the pop route.
I noticed that as well and honestly it keeps the anticipation going and excitment there. I am loving the songs and the direction she is going in creatively. I like that she is going pop but still staying true to her craft.

How beautiful is she by the way??
I think she is very stunning woman. She reminds me of a young Dorothy Dandridge and I love the visuals as well. Her singing doesn't remind me of the way she was singin on Grimes. I love the way she is switching up her singing style. She is growing beautifully all around.

She's just as beautiful in person.

Yesterday track number 10's title (I like that) popped up on itunes. I guess she's going to drop it this week. it must be this week because the entire project drops on April 27th.

Yes about her going fully popstar on this track, I read a tweet about Pynk the other day that made me laugh.
A guy was saying someone should tell Taylor Swift Janelle Monae found that sick beat she was looking for
