What can I say about Janelle Monáe really? Honestly.

We’ve been major fans of her’s since 2007′s Metropolis: Suite I (The Chase) EP and from back in November 2009 when she exclusively revealed to us the title of her now critically and commercially acclaimed The Arch Android album, we knew the project would cement her in the hearts and minds of millions around the world.

Yesterday the rebel android totally killed her performance at the Glastonbury festival and captured the attention of the UK, becoming a top trending topic in the United Kingdom. Check out her performance of the 1st single “Tightrope” from her debut album below.

All kinds of proud after watching that performance. Standing ovation for Miss Monáe. Now go and buy The Archandroid now!
