Cindy Mayweather, angel/cyborg

The world will come to know and adore Janelle Monae - her wonderfully quirky beats and her use of cosmic futurism to imagine/open up a space of difference/otherness within human society. The interview linked to shows how much thinking and commitment goes into her work. She is wonderful.

You're right, she is absolutely wonderful. Just started listening to her music recently and I've been blown away.
She's truly a highly creative and intelligent artist.

oga jeremy, you and your love for weirdos sha. I am sure you are one of those people who probably loved Grace Jones. Why can't you be like us the masses that love commercialized, "conventional" pop that is not too deep or different.
