Where’s Janelle Monae?
October 4, 2009 No Comments
Where’s the uber-talented, alternative rock-pop sci fi Muse? On the bench.
Her signing to Bad Boy Records has yielded little more than the 2008 release of her heavily-edited album Metropolis: The Chase Suite (Special Edition).
Bad Boy, founded by Sean “Diddy” Combs, has moved its heavyweight marketing and promotion to more lucrative acts, such as Day 26, which was virtually bankrolled by MTV, and Cassie Ventura’s long-awaited LP “Electro Love”.
But who did Janelle piss off at Bad Boy to be done this way?
She’s only the most refreshing, avant garde artist of her time?
Bad Boy has had a slew of artists bolt to greener pastures, turning several of them into religious zealots in the process.
Will Janelle follow “Suite”?
