Yesterday Janelle Monae premiered, “Tightrope” a massive Big Boi collaboration and first single to The ArchAndroid, the second and third installment to her dynamic Metropolis Suites series. “Tightrope” went on sale today at Monae’s official website, along with another album track, “Cold War”.
Before you head out to buy “Tightrope”, give the theatrical and empowering ”Cold War” a good, long listen and maybe consider picking it up too.
