Episode description
This week, we're turning back time to submit to the will of living legend JANELLE MONÁE with a celebration of their album 'Dirty Computer' which was released 5 years ago this month. Throughout our track-by-track, we discuss Janelle's influences, how her identity as a queer black woman has shaped her art, and how the album has stood the test of time over its lifespan.
ALSO discussed: BETTY WHO's final stop on tour, Quincy's 'real voice' and BOYGENIUS, the new alt-pop supergroup from PHEOBE BRIDGERS, JULIEN BAKER, & LUCY DACUS.
At the SPA: MAISIE PETERS (Lost the Breakup), MAUDE LATOUR (Lunch), LET'S EAT GRANDMA (From the Morning), LEITH (I Don't Live Here Anymore), GREAT GOOD FINE OK & BEFORE YOU EXIT (Paradise), CHAPPELL ROAN (Kaleidoscope), THE ACES (Solo), CAROL ADES (All Time Low), MISTERWIVES (Out of Your Mind), and DONNA MISSAL (Flicker).
NEXT WEEK: 10 years of FALL OUT BOY's 'Save Rock & Roll'!
