Re: Janelle Monae - The ArchAndroid
What the hell is she wearing?
Why is her hair like that?
What's up with them crazy *** dances, she looks ********.
Standard bullmess.
Some were talking about how Alicia Keys needed to save the Prince tribute. I was just like, y'all trippin'. Hell, I felt bad for the girl that had to follow Monae."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

No matter how many times some people are hit in the face with good music, they will never get it. Janelle Monae is good music. Awesome artist.Redskins, Lakers, Orioles, UNC Basketball , and ND Football

Re: Janelle Monae - The ArchAndroid
I am liking this A LOT. I like her style - both musically and visually - and the fact that she is first and foremost: an artist. Loving the energy, the reverence to the old Motown style & sound but with a more of a Outkast/Atlanta-style fast pace, the use of a real band - not all synthesized studio mess - and the fact that she's a pretty face but not needing to capitalize on it. I really hope she doesn't give into the media and go the whole scantily clad route because it'd kill what I'm seeing of her.
I normally don't listen to female artists - no bias really, just not my style - but this may be the first non-metal/rock album I buy since Res' "How I Do" (2001), which although dated now, was an instant classic for me.Last edited by elgreazy1; 06-29-2010, 07:58 AM.Comment

Re: Janelle Monae - The ArchAndroid
Is it just me or does Locked Inside sound just like a Stevie Wonder song? I don't know if they sampled something but it sounds like Stevie produced it.Originally posted by BlzerLet me assure you that I am a huge proponent of size, and it greatly matters. Don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise.
If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)Comment

Stevie isn't in any of the credits for the album, but I can't find more information on the individual track."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied.

Re: Janelle Monae - The ArchAndroid
Yeah it does sound like a Stevie Wonder song. When I listen to the album I hear Stevie, Michael Jackson, Prince, Andre 3k etc. If my music horizon was more expanded I'm sure I'd hear a lot more influences.PS: You guys are great.

Re: Janelle Monae - The ArchAndroid
I was not really a fan the first time I heard her music, it just didn't click with me. The more I hear though, the more I like her. The BET awards Prince performance was nice. I like the fact that she is different. I'm not sure I love her music, but the fact that she has her own style and seems very independent makes her much more appealling. She is definitely growing on me.PSN: Koolie_G

Re: Janelle Monae - The ArchAndroid
Props to the fellas that sent me some of her stuff earlier. She will be getting some serious rotation burn in the Ipod this weekend and on my drive to NY next week.#RespectTheCultureComment
