Daily Nugget #11: Janelle Monáe, "Wondaland"
I only occasionally leave the sound cave for sustenance and/or diversion, so bumping into new music the old-fashioned way, i.e., hearing it on the radio, happens somewhat infrequently. But in one of those too few serendipitous moments, I heard this track and immediately needed to know whodunnit. I have been reading about Janelle Monáe's The ArchAndroid (Suites II and III) and was planning on checking out her music; well, I think I may have found my Summer Jam '10. It's relentlessly catchy and fun, and the lyrics mention droids, secret Santas, fairygods, and underpants. In other words, resistance is futile.

I don't see it. painful. it's like being trapped in a bollywood film.
ReplyDeleteYou see, I don't even know what kind of music this is; I would buy the album based on the cover art in an instant. Yes, I have fallen for this trap many a time! Cool drawings get me EVERY time!!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure this is a drawing, or even cover art—I'd like to believe that is what she looks like.
