“Janelle Monáe's second album is looser and more physical than her 2010 debut ArchAndroid. Together with her tight-knit Wondaland collaborators (and with guest spots from Prince, Erykah Badu, Miguel, and Solange), she supervises and synthesizes a parade of golden era touchstones into a showstopping display of force and talent.”
“With the Electric Lady, singer-songwriter and composer Janelle Monáe adds two more suites to her ongoing metropolis series. This time, she seems to embrace her classic influences in the worlds of R&B and soul closer than ever.”
