"Tightrope" - Janelle Monae feat. Big Boi
Listen Here
And now for something completely different: the frenetic and addictive single "Tightrope" from Janelle Monae's latest release, The ArchAndroid. Monae is impossible to pin down - she's incredibly diverse, bizarre (check out the music video I linked to - awesomely weird), and talented, but tracks like "Tightrope" show that she could probably take over the music world if she wanted to. Big Boi stops by for a short but killer verse, and the rhythm and Monae's vocal work just make you want to move your body. Also be sure to check it the remixed "Tightrope (Wondamix)" featuring B.o.B. and Lupe Fiasco for some awesome verses from all parties.
Previous day's connection: And the answer to our three-part, epic quest to discover the mysterious link between Frightened Rabbit, Wolf Parade, and Cat Power? They all have animals in their band names! Wow, that was a bit of a let-down, huh? Well, there's plenty more room for groaning and inevitable disappointment in today's connection! Give it a go!
