who the hell is janelle monae?
She’s looking ight..
Janelle is another trendsetter (next to Rhianna and Zoe) whom I admire.
I love her hair, her style, her–I just love her!
Talented and pretty
I feel like she looks the same in every picture i’ve seen of her. she cute tho.
She is so whatever to me. I listen to different music (J*Davey, Muhsinah, Kissey Asplund) but Ms. Monae doesn’t do it for me. To say that she is the female Andre 3000, like I’ve heard previously, is absurd. I do like her hair tho’…lol
NEXT…
Lookin Great Janelle!
I THINK SHE IS THE FEMALE VERSION OF ANDRE 3000 FROM OUTCAST… I LOVE HER STYLE VERY DIFFERENT AND CREATIVE
“Many Moons” is my song!!!
DATS AN OLD UGLY SINGER HER MUSIC SUCKS AND SHE LOOKS LIKE THE OLDER VERSION OF ANITA BAKER
Another I will look forward in listening to. There are so many talented artist not quite known, it’s rediculous. I thank CONCRETELOOP for keeping me in the “KNOW”. (“Cause if ya don’t know, know ni**a”)
Ugh, everyone in the world is in L.A. this week for the grammys. Every restaurant, coffee house, yoga class, etc. is filled with damn out of towners!
I will be so happy when Sunday is over and people get the hell on.
But Ms. Monae can stay. She is so adorable and “Many Moons” is the business.
You’ve been posting about Janelle Monae so much I’ve decided to give her a second try.*Listening to her album now*
I think this is the 1st time I have ever seen her in something different
cute..
I like her shes cool…
#1….she’s some girl that angel has been trying to force down our throats for almost three years now
besides her appearance on diddy’s vh1 reality show, you won’t see her anywhere else but concrete loop
@18 Force down your throat? Are you really serious? I don’t make you come here, you come here on your own free will. Get it together!
Go Janelle!
OMG I love this girl! I can’t wait for more of her songs, she’s amazing!
come on angel….the only reason why you post about her so much is ‘cos she’s your friend…..i can’t imagine another g-list singer getting a whole post….they might be part of a “random pics” post….but no way in hell would they get a whole post
it’s the truth….no need to deny….it’s your blog so you can post whatever you want
@ 21. Actually I haven’t even met Janelle yet. Only talked to her on the phone twice. I love her music and always vibe’d her sound. See what happens when you make assumptions? Glad you’re a fan of the site though.
I know #21 feels dumb now. People always complaining about how CL posts Beyonce and Rihanna all the time but when they post different people somebody come out the wordwork and run their mouth.
Keep doing your thing Angel, we all know CL is the best black entertainment blog.
Oh and Janelle is cute.
Love her so much and she looks hella refreshed!!!
@21 CL barely post on Janelle, especially if you compare posts with other artists (who I wont name because Im that sick of hearing about them). Plus Janelle is unfortunately signed with Badboy so she needs every ounce of promotion lol
And for those who haven’t yet heard of Janelle check out Sincerely Jane, Peachtree Blues, Cindy and Letting Go- via youtube. She has some great songs!
I just don’t understand why she signed with Badboy! Biggest mistake ever, she could be huge if given the right promotion. And she does look a lot like a young Anita Baker, just wish she’d switch up her style a little more- the hair style is played out now. Still love Janelle though
love you, jane. <3
err….sorry…don’t believe you, angel…like i said, you can do what you want….and, for the record, i do love your blog.
#23 & #25…..fall back…thanks
#25…i take that back…i skimmed over your post the first time and assumed you were talking slick…my bad
I’m in agreement with 18 & 21.
I’ve never heard of Janelle Monae besides on this site. I’m not saying the site shouldn’t post about people they find interesting, but I would not call Janelle Monae “relevant” in the world of other celebrities. Yeah, g lister is fitting.
I mean she’s a cute girl and she sings pretty alright, but so do some of the people in the subway who sing for change, and they are not on this site, and you know why? Because they aren’t celebrities either.
I LOVE JANELLE!!!!!!!!!! She’s so darn cute, and she an amazing artist. I mean the chick is nominated for a grammy, she doesn’t even have a full length album is stores. She’s awesome! Stop the hate. Variety is great:)
CL thanks for posting stuff about Janelle, keep it up:)
Word…i didn’t know she was nominated for a grammy…she’s super talented, and very unique..i love her sense of style…i hope she wins..BUT janelle if you read this..LEAVE BAD BOY RECORDS IMMEDIATELY!!
lol @ “i don’t believe you”
lol that just made me laugh…
anyways…it’s nice to see janelle getting some shine
love her to death
i think she is cool.
I’m glad she got rid of them black and white oxford. cute girl though!
I totally agree Janelle hardly gets any love. It just shows how much our society goes for the “looks’ over substance. Because I seriously doubt that any of the current “IT Chicks” could go from singing songs like “Peachtree Blues or Cindy” to “Mr. President or Metropolis” without skipping a beat!
Such a creative force, true talent and artist, one of the best things that dropped in 2008 was Metropolis..hope she wins cause off the EP alone she deserves it, altho the grammy’s some BS…..and to the rest with those negative comments, all I’ll say is everything isn’t for everybody!!!!!
Her Audution CD found on the net is the sh*t too, songs like Metropolis, My Favorite Nothing, I Won’t Let Go….. etc etc etc..love her, love love lover her!!!!!!!!!
If you havent heard of Janelle Monae you should definitley listen to her song titled “Its not fair” I saw her perform a couple months back she sings so beautifuly, but people sleep on her because her musics not mainstream and she’s not a sex symbol.
Shes so cute! Ye didn’t know she was up for a grammy best of luck.
Love janelle, what’s going on with her music haven’t heard any new material. Oh i forgot she’s signed to bad boy.
Shes Horseriding!!
love her & j*davey!!!
jeez…. you can never make everyone happy. there will always be naysayers. i appreciate the posts on obscure celebrities.
Not feeling her. I just can’t get into the new artists.
GO JANELLE GO AND GET YOUR GRAMMY!
Another proof that you don’t have to parade yourself naked or in bikini to be called “talented”
LOOKS LIKE A BROKE ANITA BAKER ON CRACK!
SHE REALLY DOES NEED TO CHANGE UP HER HAIR STYLE. SHE’S BEEN ROCKING THIS SAME STYLE FOR TOO LONG. SHE’S A VERY PRETTY SISTER THOUGH. I WOULD LOVE FOR HER TO BE MY WIFE A BARE ALL OF MY KIDS. I WILL TREAT HER REAL GOOD. I’LL COOK HER SOME KNECKBONES, BLACK EYED PEAS, AND CORNBREAD WITH RED ROOSTER HOT SAUCE. I’LL RUB HER FEET AND MASSAGE HER BODY WITH SOME HOT BURNING OILS. I’LL TREAT HER LIKE NO OTHER MUTHA FUKKA EVER TREATED HER.
Jonae is the business…Stop haten so damn much!!!! Get u a life,OK!!!!
she didn’t used to dress like that.
i remember wen she was wit big boi…and the purple ribbon all-stars.
she was in that video ‘KRYPT0NITE’…if yall can remember..
she was dressed down wit her hair wild n’ down.
it was cute and it’s crazy how her style changed since she signed up wit diddy.
he was the wrong choice, but she’s gettin’ moro promo than wen she was wit big boi.

many moons is muh SHIT! i already nu abt the grammy for it.
i think she’s nominated for her album too.
she’s real dope..just wish she changed up her style and HAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!
