Dirty Computer | Janelle Monáe

Game-changing Atlanta musician Janelle Monáe has always drawn comparisons to late superstar Prince, but Dirty Computer may reveal his influence more than any other studio work to date. Get down to the funky “Make Me Feel,” come to grips with vulnerability on “So Afraid,” or revel in success and independence on “Django Jane”—in every note, Dirty Computer challenges expectations and celebrates individuality.

Essential Tracks: “Make Me Feel,” “So Afraid”
