she has a lot of videos with million plus views, not to mention all of the other vids of primetime that are just of the song with like 400,000 view so it's more then 7 million. .. just because you just heard of someone doesn't mean she isn't popular
so if you haven't heard of someone they're not popular. . she is! she's famous as hell.. and you won't ever find good music on kiss 108 top 30 countdown lol you'll find stuff like "talk dirty to me" and "wiggle"
well she hasn't put in the work like Beyonce and those guys they've been around for years, Taylor and those guys are being popular. .. if she wanted to be like them she'd have to sacrifice making good music. I didn't know your definition of popular, so yeah she's not with the ppl you just mentioned. .. but if she was walling down the street, ppl would recognize her
Not even under-rated if you count her true fans; some people will never get the accolades you think or know they deserve & I know for a fact that true artists aren't doing it for others acknowledgement frfr😏personally I wish people would quit saying that cuz it's called #UNSUNG yet US fans know better😉rant over
This woman is basically a social/philosophical sci-fi genius. Janelle's work with the concept of "the other" and injustice through the lens of androids gives me LIIIIFE
You are so right. Janelle was a very smart little girl. Always Respectful. I use tell her when was six years old. Pumpkin her Nick name. You will be some great one day. And look were she is. Still very humble. She always still keep in touch w me when she can. I still cry when I see her tears of Joy. That's girl. Family forever ❤️💙💚🙏🏾💯♈😇
Yep -- there's a reason she references Philip K. Dick's 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep' so often: because she and Dick use androids to examine the plight of the oppressed other in the same way (in a way that's often missed by people who only watch Bladerunner and don't trouble with the book).
This was such a tasteful video about genuine attraction and chemistry . It blows me away how this song or video isn’t given the credit and it deserves . I love it .
Ok this cut is highly underrated. Lyrics, vocals, beat, pure sexy. Love both artist and not too many duets of this time banging a song like this. Miguel got down on this piece and Janelle just added her magic to it. I don’t know if it didn’t get enough airtime but the first time I heard this I was like daaamn! This is hot! Too bad bcuz this joint is off the hook. It’s one of those cuts that should live on....
This guy is creepy as fuck. i was so disgusted and uncomfortable especially at this moment. He enjoys watching them serve him however they came in this strip club and whatever they have to endure to be here. He just sexually agressed her while touching her. Can't people see robots or not, it disturbingly mirror reality ?
My cousin and her husband danced to this song as their 1st song at their wedding last week! I had never heard the song before it but now this song is a fav of mine🔥🔥🔥
this is the first time I heard this song... this lady has such a beautiful voice and WOW she's very pretty... I like her eyes... I like when she hits the high notes.... good song and video... her voice stands outs.... and her smile... just her overall look... she's a very beautiful lady.... I hope she reads this... 😎
I love how they actually acted. Now people do collobs and they don't touch..and it looks awkward. In the video they really brought across that familiar feeling of feeling someone and hanging out for the first time... both looking at each other and giggling at little things you do.
I love every single act of this video: robots dancing, a woman throwing money, Janelle working in her own club, Miguel's glances, how she react when a man touch her, how Miguel tries to cheer her up after a bad day, the time they spend forever just dancing, eating and talking, having fun and taking it slow. They show perfectly this feeling of surprise, happyness and expectancy when you meet someone and you realize you're starting to feel something, that it can happen something important with this person. I preffered all what they do than watching them kissing or having sex.
S. Hilaire It's called "acting", let's not overthink it. They still look like a mismatch pair. Her and Jidenna would seem to have more in comment. But that would never happen as they are just friends and she is his boss.
Have to say she has a shitload of make-up on always. Fake eye-lashes, perfect hair etc. I think she's gorgeous yes but I do wonder how natural it is sometimes.
Sjimbwow she actually has pretty minimal makeup on usually, fake lashes yes, eyeliner, lipstick, little highlighter and contour but thats all the usual in music videos/short films/movies. Whoever does her hair is amazing haha
You know how the saying goes "History repeats itself" eventually these artists of today will be yesterdays brunch. The status quo will never remain the same. 5 years from now artists like Janelle Monae and Miguel will be more popular than artists of today. Just give it time that's all I say.
I loved seeing her on the Soul Train Awards. She's seems like such an old soul, she comes across as so respectful (she was praising her mom) and earthy. Definitely the type of artist you want to meet in person :)
theosaka69:1/27/20: A bit ashamed to admit that it wasn't until I read your post, that I even thought that. Especially since I'm a Gen X'er. If I close my eyes, I can totally channel Prince's voice to this. What a keen ear you have!!
the way she programs the women. in the beginning and they starts yo dance shows how society have enslaved women. and shes a real woman unprogrammed or not a robot. this song is great but this a great message as well and deserved the attention
She is a robot, but one of a higher grade. She is Cindy Mayweather an Alpha Platinum 3000 or 5000 or something like that. I think that makes her able to be a "supervisor" to lower grade robots.
Or you know, this could just be a cyberpunk video and those are actual robots and it has nothing to do with enslaving women. Sometimes a robot is just a robot
"PrimeTime" (feat. Miguel) Tick-tock, I'm watching the clock I can't wait 'til we get to rock I wanna scream and dream and throw a love parade Is that okay? Tonight it's me and you alone Won't make a call, won't even write a song See I've been waiting and waiting for the time to say Now listen baby When you're down, and it's hard And you feel like you've given your all Baby our love will always keep it real and true Cause baby it's a primetime for our love Ain't nobody peekin' but the stars above It's a primetime for our love And heaven is bettin' on us Bang bang, I'm calling your name You're like a fire the world can't tame I wanna riot 'til the stars come out and play Is that okay? (Okay) Tonight it's me and you alone Won't take a call, won't even write a song This'll be a personal holiday Listen baby When you're down, and it's hard And you feel like you've given your all Baby my love is always right here for you Yeah Cause baby it's a primetime for our love Ain't nobody peekin' but the stars above It's a primetime for our love And heaven is bettin' on us It's a primetime for our love (yes it is) Ain't nobody peekin' but the stars above It's a primetime for our love And heaven is bettin' on us Cause baby it's a primetime for our love Ain't nobody peekin' but the stars above It's a primetime for our love And heaven is bettin' on us...
Yeah I'm calling bs! There's no way one person can be so spiritually beautiful on the inside so captivating on the outside and have a voice that can give you goosebumps! Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope!
You cant find good music like this. First time listening and watching it and I'm already hook. Please let their be more music like this. Love Miguel and Janelle two beautiful artists and two talented singers.
I know a lot of the comments say she is underrated, which is true, but I want to know why? Her music has been around for a while and it is some of the best around. She’s full of emotion, passion, and honest power! Why don’t we hear about her all the time?!
I was just reading how tick toc and you tube suppress black artist perhaps its true cause this is the first time I've heard of these two artist ever and I'm always relaxing to r&b
Still one of my favorite songs so raw & authentic she is so beautiful & classy she’s like in her own lane this will definitely be on my wedding song list someday…
Try this: Drink spring/filtered water (not purified) only/mainly; Quit drinking sodas, sweet tea, energy drinks, alcohol, and coffee; Stop eating processed foods, fast food, and junk food; Eat more healthy (more fresh vegetables, fresh fruit), wheat bread (no white enriched bread); Eat more fish and turkey instead of beef and pork. Engage in some type of physical exercise, if you're able to. Try that for a week, then 2, then 3, and so on. I know that it sounds like a LOT to do, but start off doing a little at a time until you've weaned yourself from depending on/desiring those things. I'm sure that you can do it, Mina, (and anyone reading this) if you really have the desire to do so.
You realize that it is a music video, with perfect lighting and loads of make-up, right? Just be yourself and stop wanting unreal things :) Have a good day :)
O.M FREAKIN GOODNESS!!!!!!!!!! There are no words to describe how magnificent this song is!!!!!!! This song is PURE NIRVANA and it sends me on a high beyond the GALAXIES!!! You don't need weed or any type of drug to get high if you listen to this song.... and it seems like its only once in a blue moon or once every 5years that something this good comes out! Tripple thumbs up to Janelle and Miguel for this! I can listen to it 20x a day for 5years and never get tired of it! Lol....
