What do you get when
you add the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s? Well you get none other than Janelle Monae. Her
sound is a well balanced mixture of psychedelic funk and classic R&B. What
a difference from her first studio album, The ArchAndroid. Although, she did
not change herself or style, this album is just more ear friendly. Each song
shows the talent that she possess. To say that I am pleasantly surprised with
this album would be an understatement. I saw her perform at the Essence
Festival and I was so lost that I could not wait for her set to be over. Now,
if she would have performed the songs from this album, I could have waited for
Beyonce a little bit longer. The Electric Lady is an album that can go far
if Atlantic and Bad Boy promote it well. The Electric Lady features appearances
from Prince, Miguel, Solange, and Erykah Badu. Each individual featured
on this album is a great compliment to her. I suggest that this album be in
everyone’s music catalog. "Electric Lady" is set to hit stores Sept. 10. Check out a few tracks below
What you should take a listen to: Primetime, Electric Lady, Give em What They Want, Dance Apocalyptic and It's Code
I heard a couple tracks from the album & definitely liked what I heard as well... Might just throw this on today
