Royalty: Janelle Monae & Erykah Badu Team up for ‘Q.U.E.E.N.’ (Video)

Image
Janelle Monae  has already made it clear that she’s not like most singers. And when it comes to her music, she takes it very seriously. So seriously that she won’t allow anything, including herself to distract anyone away from it. So in order to keep people focused on her music and her music only, she’s committed to wearing modest black and white outfits, and says that concealing her body will force people to focus solely on her material. She  tells Elle Canada : “The colours come out in your music, the colours come out in your personality, the colours come out in performance.

Although I must admit that I am not a fan of Katt Williams, I did find that late night when there is nothing else on cable I have caught his show every now and then. I was pleasantly surprised to see how intelligent he is. Now, we must admit that we have all seen this accumulative narrative before. A well respected and loved entertainer heavily embraced by the mainstream media and the public falls from grace. Then discover that they end up dead of  mysterious circumstances, found in a hotel room with drugs all around and it is left to pundits to conclude what happened.  Then, they pick the most logical conclusion from the pool of opinion. Or how about this one shot up but no suspects... I could go on and on but you get the picture. Let's take a look at what they could possibly be upset with Katt Williams about? Now you may look at this and say there is nothing here, yeah Barack Obama destroyed the Taliban. Well that is all and well with the ignorant American people
