Q.U.E.E.N. f/ Erykah Badu - Janelle Monáe from Q.U.E.E.N. [Single]

musicforants:

Janelle Monae returns with her first new single since her phenomenal debut album The ArchAndroid, and it’s a doozy. “Q.U.E.E.N.” pairs the funk-pop superstar with neo-soul queen Erykah Badu and it’s all anthemic space-age synth funk for the first half, before a jazzy breakdown (that trumpet!), strings and a Erykah Badu rap closes things out beautifully. 

Janelle Monae’s sophomore album The Electric Lady is out this year on Atlantic Records.

Yes.
