I’m just curious what others think of Janelle Monáe? I’ll admit I never really looked into her, but I knew who she was. I loved “Yoga.” I spontaneously listed to her Dirty Computer album and was HOOKED. She puts so much effort and detail into her craft and I have no clue how she gets overlooked so often. Stream “Dirty Computer” and discuss your thoughts. -
Lately I've been thinking about some of my favorite movies featuring great performances from Black pop stars. Obviously the late, great Whitney Houston comes to mind right away. The Bodyguard, Waiting to Exhale, The Preacher's Wife. Whitney wowed us as a leading lady in The Bodyguard and her performance broke barriers at the time. Even though she faced criticism from film critics, it's safe to say some of her movies have undoubtedly stood the test of time. Mariah has been cast in some very impressive dramatic roles in Lee Daniels films Precious and The Butler. Justice For Glitter! Beyonce in Dreamgirls and The Lion King. Janet Jackson (Miss Jackson if you're nasty) in Poetic Justice Diana Ross, Janelle Monae, Aaliyah, Will Smith. The list goes on... I'm curious what some of your fave crossover performances are. Let's discuss!- 22 replies
