Prince Likes Janelle Monae

Prince’s doesn’t like a lot of things (puppies babies, flowers, etc…) but the purple one does have a fondness in his heart for “Electric Lady” Janelle Monae. Prince surprised Monae with a singing telegram of a special version of “Kiss” crafted for Monae to incorporate a plug to her latest album. Monae fought back tears as she read the rewritten lyrics. “You don’t have to be rich to be Monae/ You don’t have to be a witch with a broom of hay/ Ain’t no particular rhyme that you need to say/ You just need a copy of Janelle’s Electric Lady,” it said.

In case you missed the underlying message, go cop Monae’s album “Electric Lady”!
