NEW MUSIC: JANELLE MONAE "MANY MOONS"

Janelle Monáe is gearing up to release of her debut album, Metropolis. Here is the new single for the release, “Many Moons,” produced by Nate Wonder, Chuck Lightning & Janelle Monáe, for which she just shot a video for this a couple of weeks ago in Los Angeles.

Janelle’s new EP drops August 12, and the whole entire Bad Boy and Atlantic families, who have partnered with The Wondaland Arts Society to bring you Janelle’s latest project, are absolutely stoked about the new project. “Many Moons” is a darker, scarier look into the world of Metropolis, but still with that classic fun that fans have learned to love from Janelle’s music. Look out for more music from Miss Monáe, and be sure to pick up the EP on August 12.
