Janelle Monae is set to power-up her ‘Dirty Computer’ album campaign in a major way next week.
For while the LP itself will arrive on April 27th, the singer will launch a 44-minute visual the day prior in partnership with BET and MTV.
Full story below…
‘Dirty Computer: An Emotion Picture By Janelle Monae’ is billed as “a visually stunning Emotion Picture with a vibrant narrative featuring celebratory music videos.”
It follows young woman named Jane 57821 (Monae), who is living in a near-future society where people are referred to as “computers.” ‘Thor’ and ‘Selma’ star Tessa Thompson joins the singer in the production.
Thematically, the film explores humanity and what truly happens to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness when mind and machines merge, and when the government chooses fear over freedom.
In an unprecedented move, the album movie will air exclusively throughout the day of April 26th on MTV and BET stations worldwide including MTV, MTV2, MTV Live, mtvU, BET, BET Jams, BET Soul and BET.
‘Dirty Computer,’ the album, features previously released songs ‘Make Me Feel,’ ‘Django Jane,’ and ‘I Like That.’
We’re excited, especially with this momentous roll-out. Are you?
I. CAN. NOT. WAIT. This girl is pure art.
Yesss i agree She is a Creative with Afro futuristic vibes and she doe quality work! Im def tuning in
She tries hard and I think her music would connect better with consumers if she could sing but she is not a good singer. I find her voice annoying.
I agree ☝?, I support her because we were in choral music together…
lmao nobody takes the opinions of the roach nest seriously, janelle’s voice & music are light years ahead & better than ANYTHING that camel’s try hard pet roach feeds to you roaches lmfaooooooo
Dude you seriously need to stop being obsessed with Beyonce. You are literally the only person talking about her in every post. Now back to the subject at hand…Janelle Monae. She works very hard but she would be a lot further along in her career right now if she had vocal talent. She is not a singer. Stick to the subject at hand. I promise you no one has Beyonce on their mind 24/7 but you.
Since when was vocal talent required to have a successful singing career. Madonna, Janet Jackson, Brittney are proof of that. Meanwhile Janelle Monae is a very good singer. She has the same tone as Alicia Keys but has a wider vocal range. Peachtree blues is one of the records that shows off her beautiful singing voice
Lizzy Madonna, Janet, and Britney all have soothing sexx voiced and thet are showgirls destined to be mainstream. Jamel let is a showgirl but her voice is annoying. If her voice was more soothing she would be a bigger artist already.

What? Janelle can definitely sing. And she has a great tone too. It perfectly matches the music she does and her artistry. She definitely can perform and live live too (see any Cold War performance). She definitely is better at singing than Rihanna for example (whose only talent related to music is supposed to be singing). Overall Janelle is a way better artist than Beyonce no doubt. But Beyonce is maisntream material, which is not teh case for everybody.
I will always support my fellow lesbians
She´s SO good and creative. It´s the only album I´m looking forward to buy this year so far (terrible terrible year). Can´t wait. Loved Electric Lady. The collabo with Prince was amazing and songs like rock&Roll or What an experience… it was everything!
Totally all the way here for this. Janelle is a creative genius. Can’t wait to get the album and this experience. Dope!
