Janelle and Prince were FRIENDS, they even collaborated together in the past too... I hate seeing all the pretentious comments saying she could never compare to him as if that matters at all, she's not Prince she's Janelle Monáe and even though she's inpired by him she's still very unique. also since they were friends there's no need to compare them or pit them against each other. don't be so mean just because people say they hear "Prince vibes" because even Janelle herself comfirmed that he helped her with this album. just chill and enjoy the good music.

Her last album (The Electric Lady) featured Prince on the second track... for those of you that are late (HELLA LATE) to the party saying she ripped him off listen up cause I’m gonna say this one time: they were great friends & big fans of each other. He was a fan since early in her career attending her shows, sending gifts, telegraphs, etc, & he worked with her on her upcoming album/the music you are hearing now before his passing. So there it is, shut up. Know FACTS before you prop your lip.

They're almost all a throwback to styles Prince had worn throughout the years, if you're familiar with any of his work then it stands out quite blatantly. Also, a lot of the riffs in this song sound straight out of some of his songs. Not a shock since he helped her write this album, and I am loving it. Shame he isn't still around to see how well it's working for her. He's always had the midas touch though.

So much 80s vibe to it, with a lot of her influence, Prince, felt in it. I checked out more of Janelle, and she is so diverse and talented. I had to get her music, including her concept album, Dirty Computer, which is cool in so many ways. I'm rooting for her for years to come.

Venture Forth nope. If someone is bi that means that he or she is attracted to both men and women , while beign pan means that they are attracted to all genders

@Venture Forth it's a bit like bisexual is more than one gender but pan is more like, regardless of gender, like gender doesn't matter as much to them. I'm not the best person to explain. Google it is probably the best thing tbh lol

[@johnlondonbimeetup7961]

@JustJuli _88 bisexual definition from people that are the most inclusive of what it means to different people - many bi activists for instance, define as attraction to more than one gender. Hence it can fit pansexual into the bisexuality space too, and polysexual and omnisexual etc. Bi doesn't say anything about whether the gender matters for attraction. Pansexuality tends to (though varies for some people their exact usage). Omnisexual has been used for people attracted to all genders but the gender is a part of it. This definition of bi also allows non-binary gender people to be included in many bi people's attractions (while not necessarily being attracted to both men and women, perhaps just one of those for example).

[@Fitzroyfallz]

nvm Sorry, it seems I misread her interview. That's my bad! Janelle is the only celebrity I have ever heard of that identifies as pan, so it meant a lot to me to know there was at least one other person out there. The only 2 canonically pansexual characters in media are always mislabeled as bisexual so I feel really protective over people who identify as pan, and we automatically label people in history as bi when we discover they were interested in more than one gender, so I often feel left out. We can both have her! She's both a pansexual and a bisexual icon.

This song can be big, sure, but it’s the songs in the context of the album that’s underrated (at least compared to the singles)

[@hellh00und]

I, a bisexual, almost could not finish this video. I'm so viscerally turned on and connected with the music there are tears in my eyes.

y'all this was a joke about me thinking the actors and actresses were hot, tone it tf down

[@noes9849]

I’m getting so much bisexuality vibes from this video and I live for it! 💅🏼🙅‍♀️🙅‍♂️

[@Evergreenvic]

Just vibes? I mean it's blatant. :D

[@noes9849]

Victoria Dudley you is correct 👏

[@reltihfloda123]

haha ryea

[@danielmorgan3590]

it definitely is Victoria are u for it?

[@alaly1027]

She gave those vibes on her Electric Lady album. She didn't want to admit anything then from those lyrics, but now this video may be her coming out with it.

[@gml8252]

I love this song. I can’t believe it wasn’t a major hit. It needs to be re-released.

[@sarahjgriffiths22]

Prince lives on in this QUEEN.

[@aprilwest9852]

Janie Jukebox The haters always called Prince a queen.

[@DaryllMillave]

There are just so many references in this video!!!! Michael Jackson's They Way You Make Me Feel, Prince's Kiss, Beyonce's Green Light and Blow, David Bowie's Let's Dance uggghhh I loooveee her!!

[@indavewetrust]

Kim Millave no offense but I didn't see THAT many references in this one video. But ok.

[@DaryllMillave]

It's the subtle references that I see. With the music, production, visual aesthetic. I'm not saying they're direct references. I just see that they have lots of similarities and overtones.

[@ericquitugua5546]

Kim Millave Curious where you're hearing Bowie in this.

[@michellefallmoore9821]

what is the time of david bowie

[@corinroyal]

Not to mention the Thompson Twins stylings on the club goers.

[@yaralikesfood1589]

Janelle is so underrated!

[@ADOS_DSGB]

She seems to be going more mainstream, she may get her due this year but too bad she had to kinda sellout.

[@DC-pp8xf]

+Kmemu Ka How is she selling out? There is nothing wrong with making music that some may label mainstream if that's what she chooses to do.

[@ADOS_DSGB]

She's revealing her ass and tittys now, I still love Janelle I just cant let my daughter see this video.

This is a gorgeous Valentine to Prince with so many lovely layers. Absolute fire 🔥

Oh yes we do love Prince/David Bowie vibes!

[@sanaaboshelockhart2475]

yasssss i was just thinking of that

[@brianfoster7064]

Indeed we do!

[@JasnoGT]

Prince yes. But Its not weird enough to be in Bowie's universe. Bowie didn't sing about love or relationships that often.

Janelle is proof that good music can be popular music.

[@paulseddon2338]

I’m a heavy rock fan…… and this is fucking epic. Like Prince and Lady Gaga got together to make the best pop / funk song ever. This is brilliant. ♥️😃

[@MichaelTurner856]

Me to It's good to have a diverse taste in genres though!

[@TheCaulfield1]

Yeah love this ♥️♥️♥️

[@olliojenarter]

Prince and Jenelle actually got together. He was her mentor. Mrs. Gaga is not required in the formula.

[@Heytay30]

Didn't get any lady Gaga from this but definitely prince! 💜

[@DrewJPS]

Prince never dies, he just becomes other people.

[@eh-ip1tn]

Yes, its so right ;)

Jimmi Pynk he contributed work to this album r.i.p. 😢

[@KurtDepner]

No shit, right? I was just saying, Janelle is channeling Prince here. Except it's Janelle so... BETTER!

[@ekanastone]

Kurt Depner hold the fuck up! Janelle went in on this song, but she hasn't topped Prince yet!

I thought the same thing!

[@funkyslap77]

Please, Prince was above all a composer who could write actual MELODIES with some sophisticated chords and complex rhythm underneath. Can't say the same about Janelle and this "song" unfortunately...

[@ShaunInce123]

Ebony Hagans-Greene I don't see how this is similar to Prince in the slightest

Janelle Monaè needs to win a Grammy for this.

[@beautifulhorsepictures]

Keaton Baker a grammy, an oscar, a tony, every damn award even if it isn’t related to music

[@alaly1027]

She needed for Electric lady in my opinion. This and Django Jane are great. But She definitely needs hardware. She's been nominated enough.

[@lovingklimt]

I still don't understand how she lost at the Grammys for her debut album. It was perfection and a clear indication that the Grammys are a joke at this point.

[@TexasTrojanPony]

Sound evokes Prince, moves evoke MJ, yet it still feels all Janelle Monáe

[@CassieJazz96]

TexasTrojanPony My exact thoughts

[@Trixtah]

I'd say the moves are more JANET Jackson (who did some shout-outs to brother Michael in her routines), and that's definitely the case with the Django clip.

[@guxt65]

Exactly. I was about to write that.

[@sisis-qt4oc]

Right

[@TexasTrojanPony]

yeah okay I'll have to concede on that one

SOGGY SOCKS because Prince, may his soul rest in peace, he had that Purple rain, purple vibe. Purple signifies royalty. Prince definitely influenced her musical style. I love it. He lives on thru that music. When I heard it I thought of the Purple One lol. I love me some Janelle Monae.

[@Abernath]

Janelle Monae is so creative and a DAMN amazing dancer. There are too many good singers who have zero clue how to carry thesmelves in a music video or on stage. But Janelle has NAILED both.

[@Shark_Cowboy]

Oh Janelle, how we've missed your music.

[@Crazelord91]

"Kiss", but in 2018 and a female musician. And I love it!

[@divatavares6696]

Crazelord91 totally agree! Specially on this one ,u can see how Prince was such an influence! *All album is a freakin' masterpiece*

[@samcherry4741]

Diva Tavares Prince actually contributed to the production on this album too, especially this one

[@divatavares6696]

Sam Cherry ❤️

[@kendalcruz7418]

Crazelord91 thought the same

[@valerierimoldi3793]

Does anybody else hear some Robert Palmer influence too? I totally feel the Prince vibe but I am feeling a little Addicted to Love peppered in the mix. Whoever, whatever influence I like her sound, I like her style.

[@elisabettatanzi9393]

He was collaborating with her on this album, and specifically this song (obviously), when he passed away.

WIG IS IN ORBIT

[@GuateverDavid]

milk love that expression lol

[@isaacorwhatever4329]

Can someone explain the whole wig thing I still dont get it

[@GuateverDavid]

Bobbicorn according to what I know, it all started in RuPaul’s Drag Race season 9. Where on of the contestants (Shae Coulée I believe) made a comment about being so perfect looking (in drag) that the other queen’s wig were snatched. Then Aja, another contestant, say something related to the edges of the other queen’s wig being snatched, also related to her looking so good. Bottom line: so every time someone does something so good -almost perfect- your wig gets snatched because of how stunned you are. And “milk” seems to have her wig somewhere in the orbit lol

[@isaacorwhatever4329]

David Ah ok
