Do you consider Janelle Monae a sell out?

From when she started it, to now to songs like Yoga? Or do you view it as an evolution of an artist, a woman embracing her sexuality. Obviously, we know she's fine, the things you would do to her if you was alone with her. That stuff is obviously. I'm just asking about her how do you view her image now?

No, I think she's simply embracing her sexuality. hell, even her lyrics in "yoga" states that. and you can't "police" her either.

"Crown on my head but the world on my shoulder
I'm too much a rebel, never do what I'm supposed ta
Bend it never break it, baby watch and I'ma show ya
Stretching on my cash, got my money doing yoga
Sometimes I'm peachy, and sometimes I'm vulgar
Even when I'm sleeping I got one eye open
You cannot police me, so get off my areola
Get off my areola"

see lyrical meanings here on this site: Janelle Monáe (Ft. Jidenna) – Yoga
