Maybe Janelle’s CD Is Okay After All


I’d been reading mixed-to-negative reviews of Janelle Monae’s new CD, “The Electric Lady,” so it’s a nice corrective to read Pitchfork’s thumbs-up: Her ‘second album is looser and more physical than her 2010 debut “ArchAndroid.” Together with her tight-knit Wondaland collaborators (and with guest spots from Prince and Miguel), she supervises and synthesizes a parade of golden era touchstones into a showstopping display of force and talent.’
