Was her last Album any good?

it was alright, -- great production values & creativity, but the actual underlying songs weren't that great, not terrible either tho, but still not much really transcended. some of it sounded straight up DISNEY-ish, freal, made me think she'd breakout wildly successfully getting her Mary Poppins on, or like in a animated musical.

She's a beautiful woman, she needs to chill out with the make-up a little bit.

The one thing about puffy I respect is that she is signed to him but he lets her do whatever she wants artistically

Is she still signed to him? I thought when he left Atlantic he left most of his artists too like her and Day 26.

you're right about her being with Atlantic still but she's still listed as a bad boy artist :manny:


but her last album was untouched by puff so I :salute: him for that

She dodges questions about her sexuality like if she's a lesbian (a rumour), what she is period. She doesn't seem like she has sex either and hasn't been romantically linked to anyone, period. I thought I was the only who thought it until a friend of mine dug up Trinidad James old tweet that said "I don't think Janelle Monae has sex"

she has sex. and she loves it too. that is all

And yet, nobody except her hardcore fans will care :yeshrug:

Ol' girl is very talented.......but she needs a hit. A real hit. Not shyt like that song with Erykah that has people's attention for only a few minutes, on some "oh look......she has a new song.....sounds good :ehh:......now lemme listen to Nicki again....."

Why are you talking like a record executive. She makes good songs. Successful or not shes still a great talent that friends can enjoy. Lets not speak from the perspective of a casual music listener. We're more hardcore.

The single of her last album was HUGE...shyt was everywhere....and I've seen her in commercials recently...whoever mentioned Nicki is dumb, they don't share fanbases, and Monae isn't trying to be some pop superstar. She stays in her lane and does it better than most anyone else.
