06/04: The Philadelphia Inquirer Interviews Janelle Monae
Dan DeLuca of The Philadelphia Inquirer has an interview with Janelle Monae. They talk "The ArchAndroid," artistry and more.
"Each artist that's committed to art has the opportunity to see beauty and messages that a normal person may not be able to see," she says. "I want to do that on my own terms, and I know I have a responsibility to the people who are going through everyday life's obstacles, and are feeling oppressed and depressed and suppressed. And I definitely want to create music that empowers and uplifts them. This is my job."
