"...got me in my feelings." : the albums, 2018.


09/janelle monae/dirty computer

The Dirty Computer:

is SUNNY,
FUNKY,
YOUNG BLACK WILD AND FREE.

it's PYNK & TOO BLACK FOR YA.
a BLACK now POPPING LIKE A BRA STRAP ON YA!

it's tired of hoteps trying to tell you how to feel.
naw, THIS IS HER PALACE.
WONDERLAND,
so her alias is Alice.

KOOL-AID WITH THE KALE.

JANE BOND NEVER JANE DOE.
DJANGO NEVER SAMBO.

A LITTLE CRAZY, LITTLE SEXY, LITTLE COOL.

THE TRUTH.

THE PLUG WHEN YOU NEED IT.

AN EMOTIONAL SEXUAL BENDER.

A LITTLE LEFT OF CENTER.

THE VENOM,
AND THE ANTIDOTE.

yeah... something like that.

vibing on a fearless artistic plain like many a great prince or stevie wonder album before it, dirty computer is janelle monae fully formed and wonderfully comfortable in her shell.

so go on, take a byte.

help yourself.

get screwed.
