We are excited to welcome R&B singer sensation Janelle Monáe to the Trendsetter 2018 roster with her music video release for her latest single “Make Me Feel.”
Monáe is official back and better than ever dropping two new songs, accompanied by full-length videos. The upbeat high-energy funk song, “Make Me Feel,” plays in synchrony to the aesthetically ‘80s-esque inspired video. Directed by Alan Ferguson, the ambivalent dark-toned yet colorful video alongside her killer outfits and smooth dance moves salutes to famous icons David Bowie and Prince while also celebrating bisexuality as Monáe flirts back and forth between male and female love interests, who is played by actress Tessa Thompson.

Alongside the release of the two new singles, Monáe announced her new forthcoming album Dirty Computer, available on April 27th. The highly anticipated album will follow-up to the 2013’s Electric Lady and already proves to it will be a great hit given the two singles released. The album is a long process that’s a result of her own perfectionism: “You know, this is an extremely vulnerable album and it took me a while to make it because I’m a self-editor.”
