Janelle Monáe
BMO Harris Pavilion @ Summerfest 200 N. Harbor Drive, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202
Soul singer Janelle Monáe turned heads with her 2010 full-length debut, The ArchAndroid (Suites II and III), an epic and eccentric mélange of funk, hip-hop and glam-rock that plays out as an eccentric science-fiction fantasy. What a joy it is to see that, even as the singer has raised her profile with mainstream acting roles in movies like Moonlight and Hidden Figures, she hasn’t lost her iconoclastic spirit. Inspired by Prince, her latest album, Dirty Computer is a concept record that plays out as a joyful, 49-minute celebration of sexual fluidity—it may be her wildest album yet.
