WHY JANELLE MONÁE IS CHARACTER APPROVEDSinger, songwriter, dancer, futuristic funkstress—and now, Character Approved honoree—Janelle Monáe and her music transcend genre and definition. With a unique and soulful voice, the Kansas City native first burst onto the music scene in 2007 with her EP Metropolis. Her songs—and her distinctive style—have garnered a Grammy nomination. In 2010, Monáe released the brilliant and imaginative The ArchAndroid (Suites II & III), which was lauded as one of the best albums of the year by the industry and fans alike. It broke into the Billboard Top 20 and earned her two more Grammy nods. It won't be long before this character's music is on everyone's playlist. |
