I want you all to STOP, LOOK & LISTEN to the talent that is Janelle Monae. I met her back in my junior year of college, when she was singing at talent showcases at the AUC (Morehouse, Spelman & Morris Brown). Back then, I was captivated by her powerful, honey-coated voice, but I never imagined she would morph into the futuristic-funky-fly diva she has become. With a political slant, and insightful lyrics merged with a futuristic sound all her own, she is one to watch out for. Check out her video for: "Many Moons" below... WATCH:
Isn't she dope? My only reservation about the sultry songbird is that she is currently signed to Bad Boy Records, and we all know what happens to artists under that label.....
I'm not even quite sure if Diddy knows what to do with a talent like this. It's a whole other slant for BBR to take, and I hope they market her well. She deserves to be at the fore-front, she's been doing this for a MINUTE. Check out her new album in stores now: THE CHASE SUITE... And don't ever say I never did anything for y'all...
