堪薩斯出生的年輕黑人女伶 Janelle Monae ,今年的出道作《The ArchAndroid》可說是這兩年最教人驚艷的概念專輯之一,而且她才二十四歲,外型與個性都極討喜,在廠牌老板吹牛老爹的加持下前途一片璀璨。 《The ArchAndroid》副標為「Suites II and III」,是她發(fā)行于2007年的首張EP《Metropolis: Suite I》的續(xù)篇,收錄的是第二與第三部組曲,第四部組曲也計劃于稍后出版。

After making a mark with her first unofficial studio album, The Audition, she publicly debuted with a conceptual EP titled Metropolis: Suite I (The Chase), which peaked at number 115 on the Billboard 200 in the United States.
In 2010, Monáe released her critically acclaimed first full-length studio album, The ArchAndroid, a concept album sequel to her first EP; it was released by Bad Boy Records. With this industry recognition, the album has also been more successful commercially, officially reaching the number 17 spot on the Billboard 200. In March 2012, "We Are Young" by Fun., on which Monáe appears as a guest vocalist, reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, her first appearance in the US top 10. In August 2012, Monáe became a CoverGirl spokeswoman. On September 10, 2013, she released her second studio album, The Electric Lady, to critical acclaim. Boston City Council named October 16, 2013 "Janelle Monáe Day" in the city of Boston, Massachusetts, in recognition of her artistry and social leadership. In 2016, she had major roles in two feature films, Hidden Figures and Moonlight, for which she received widespread praise.
