Grade 9, Track 11


"Tightrope," Janelle Monae
No, it doesn't date back to 1979. But I was getting tired of listening to guys who figure they're the cock of the walk, and I figured you might be too.

  1. She is a whole new treat. So unique. She keeps popping up on TV here in the States, and performing her... I don't even know what to call it... kind of music and dance. Incredible.
