Janelle Monáe - Dirty Computer (April 27, 2018) Album • Page 7

I’m halfway through rn and I feel this post hard

 

Doing my third full listen back-to-back

This albums special

 

No surprise there

 

Imagine having an album release still planned in 2018 and then hearing this album.

 

I will say some lyrics are a bit corny

 

The movie was phenomenal. It's interesting when artists can tell a story with their album.
I enjoyed Lights' similar project with her comic and album concept.

 

This is mad fucking good.

 

Pharrell especially!

 

I haven’t been able to listen to the whole thing yet but I’m not gonna lie, I know a lot of people are pointing to Screwed as a highlight, but I was not a fan on first listen and it was entirely due to lyrics.

Edit: reading the lyrics now, I guess it’s mostly just Zoe’s verse that bugs me? Idk me and my roommate were listening and they were even less into it than I was and commenting on it the whole time so it probably colored my experience. *shrug*

 

Yea I'd say Zoe's part is the only thing I would get the criticism for, I think Janelle is fine on it

 

All the features are so minor that I can’t imagine them even slightly coloring one’s experience with this excellent album

 

Zoe's perfect for what that song is doing.

 

I was listening in my car and didn’t have the lyrics on hand, so it was far from an in-depth listen

 

Honestly shouldn’t have even made a comment until I actually checked the lyrics, oh well.

 

I woke up with Make Me Feel stuck in my head

 

I guess they lyrics are corny but I don’t put much stock into lyrics. And they’re good, but a blast to sing along to

 

I just need to come around to Don’t Judge Me and So Afriad. They’re the 2 that are a tad bit lower than the others for me.

 

It is early in the year, but I have a feeling this will wind up on my Top 10 list.

 

Reese witherspoon is a treasure

 

Oh good god damn I finally finished all the way and Americans was too good. The whole thing is too good. I don't really agree that the lyrics are that corny.

 

I get such a rush every time it transitions from Crazy, Classic, Life to Take A Byte

 

I might say the last chorus of Crazy Classic Life might be my favorite moment of the year

 

this is a good album

definitely gonna spin more, but i think its going to be near the top at the end of the year

why is pharrell singing about his urine
