Janelle Monáe is back with her third studio album, Dirty Computer.
The project was officially announced back in February along with a sneak peek of the album’s accompanying short film.
Dirty Computer includes the previously released singles “Make Me Feel,” “Django Jane,” and “Pynk” featuring Grimes, as well as guest appearances by Pharrell, Brian Wilson, and Zoë Kravitz.
Shortly before the album’s release, Monáe spoke to Rolling Stone about the project and the message she wanted to send to the LGBTQ youth:
“I want young girls, young boys, nonbinary, gay, straight, queer people who are having a hard time dealing with their sexuality, dealing with feeling ostracized or bullied for just being their unique selves, to know that I see you,” she said. “This album is for you. Be proud.”
You can stream Dirty Computer now on Apple Music/iTunes and Spotify.
Monáe will kick off the album’s supporting tour June 11 in Seattle. Check out the full tour schedule below.
