Tf y’all talking about that he didn’t like Janelle’s cover? He mentored her. He barely grooves to anyone’s covers of his and he was BOPPING! And that smile at the end couldn’t have assured anyone more on how close they were.

He was a proud teacher looking at the success of his student. You can tell how proud he is of Janelle Monáe. Like these people need to stop acting like every artist has to be filled with emotions. Sometimes they don’t know how to act and just jams out.

I wish she would've done "Computer Blue." The name would've fit it with androgynous android theme, plus I could totally imagine, "Janelle? Yes, Tessa. Is the water warm enough? Yes, Tessa. Shall we begin? Yes, Tessa." But Computer Blue wasn't a radio friendly hit, and I'm not sure if Janelle & Tessa were together yet.
