The ArchAndroid is back. Janelle Monae’s new single ‘Q.U.E.E.N.’, is a psychedelic funk cut which gets Erykah Badu on board for a breakdown. The song goes for a dizzying jam vibe with Monae singing about character acceptance. The Electric Lady is back in the building. Her new album on the way. The return to Wondaland is still wild.
