Janelle Monae: Oh, Maker [Video]

This follows the story of a droid, Cindi Mayweather (57821), freed from the clutches of the Government by a man named Anthony Greendown, who she has fallen in love with.
Watch as we are taken into her world, running away from the Droid Control Marshall trying to capture her, disassemble her and take away her cybersoul.

Cindi Mayweather is "...not human, she is a custom synthetic; a representation of everything that worked in the past...the only thing she can't do is fall in love." Even computer codes, like law, is made to be broken.

Big Boi f. Janelle Monae: Be Still (Video)

We weren't expecting a video for this track, although it is one of the brighter moments on Sir Lucious Leftfoot. That, and the fact that we're partial to both artists.

Janelle Monae "Cold War" (Video)

Remember where you heard it - this woman will be one of the greatest we have ever seen. As if we weren't impressed enough with her first suite, with Archandroid, with seeing her live and then by MEETING her, then she releases the visuals for Cold War. It is a kitchen sink of emotions, but visually so bare that it forces the listener to truly hear the lyrics. Impressive to say the least...

In conclusion...

Most opening acts are a good warmup for the headliner and not much else. But this Archandroid lit the damn roof on fire! Her performance was second to none, and it's great to see artists doing it for the love again and not just for the pay. Ms. Monae was gracious enough to converse with fans in the merch line, even singing Happy Birthday to one lucky guy. We were stoked to have the chance to meet her and wish her much success.

Ms. Monae is simply amazing. It's refreshing to see a sense of enhanced creativity.
