Janelle Monáe - "Cloud 9"

[SheronaK]

3 people got on cloud 8 and lost their way

[TheMyamicah]

Do you understand your're hearing a REAL ARTIST?

[Darknessinpit57]

amazing voice.

[dpawlmusic]

Can I buy this somewhere??

[rzfodaprak]

someone knows the tabs for this song?

[118Voyager]

These feels like old school R&B from back in the 90's. Well not exactly old school but you get the idea. I ADORE this woman.

[acemist1231]

You made me feel the way felt when I first meet you, and my soul got chills... :D

[cocothicknessma]

@FightsRightsAlways soo right

[73musicmusic]

glee did a cover of a song she featured in... fate to find this amazingly talented woman

[Smartiejes100]

<3

[possiblymaybe19]

i love all about janelle monae! she's so uber talented! <3

[EmpressSakama16]

I think i've heard this song in a movie, sounds familiar

[Tr1ea9su6re7]

I accidentally found her - one of those accidents which i'm happy for! :)

[jln673]

I think she'll do more than ok as she is. She played a Glastonbury this year and the crowd love her!! Got fantastic exposure. I was one of many that first heard about her this way! Plenty of heavyweights in the music industry support and back her now! Her future is bright.

[MissEnglishChocolate]

I agree with FightsRightsAway this woman is fsar to funky and talented to just be ignored. It is music and talented indivduals like this that people to know more about then the Rihanna's of the world. This music is good for the mind body and soul..can anyone say the same about the majority of the crap that we see and hear nowadays? Thank god for youtube and places like this.

[Jussara1376]

I LOVE HER! SHE CAMES IN BRAZIL! *_*

[rzfodaprak]

@Jussara1376 came*

[Afroblack379]

what id give to be that dumb rapper...

[8Questpuss]

Sounds like the neptunes. This has to be the Neps.

[ciddler]

The Audition album is really just that, an audition and a lot of thoughts from herself

[Plzimarobutt]

@ciddler She has a song on here called "Thoughts." It's just her talking with a guitar, and yet it's so much more.

[Bearingz]

Ahhhh how did I not know about her sooner, she is awesome!!

[TheMusicmind99]

Thanks for checkin out my channel and subbin me! Luv ya! <3

[jmacon2]

Amazing!!!!!



[mariobottine]

I Love this music! Janelle Monáe in Brasil, so good!

[livinlovinloud]

oh God, I want to be like her! I just wish she got more publicity..I almost fell out of my chair when I heard one of her songs on a commercial! love you Janelle!

[0000ericam]

this song is the figging bomb!!!!!!!!

[lszyman51]

A TRUE TALENT! REAL TALENT! WOW! She can sing and she can dance and she does not have to trash herself in the process! CLASS? Remember that? Well... she has it! I only wish more of our "entertainers" had what she has! CONGRATS JANELLE! KEEP UP THE GOOD, CLASSY and TALENTED WORK! Can't wait to see more- love Tightrope!

[Jagaloon1897]

she reminds me of a classic lena horn with a contemporary nikki minaj...i hope her career gets bigger without her having to compromise herself or her music...and i kinda hope she gives up the only wearing tuxedos thing cuz she is so sexy

[metacrisis47]

What album is this from? I can't find it or a bunch of other songs from her. Sorry, I'm brand new to Janelle.

[Ebonyteach]

@metacrisis47 This is from an unreleased album, "The Audition", sold in & around ATL several years ago. You can get it by Googling it - hope she re-releases.

[clickit2me]

I can listen to her all day she is a wonderful artist in the mist of sound alikes and non creativity in record industry today.

[umizzle9]

where can i download this song for free... someone please tell me



[KPLJr]

Where's the interlude to this? I just want to hear the whole album lol

[TheSassy2005]

i love love love her style she is sooooo different from most artists :) <3

[horseplayinkidd]

i freakin love this woman! she has AMAZING talent and i feel lik she is SUPER UNDERATED jus like alot of others.

[maximdermul]

A wink to Björk, James Bond, Prince, Michael Jackson?

[ladygodiva2187]

I wish these songs were available on itunes.

[marioxwarrior]

@ladygodiva2187 Youtube Mp3 it, mate. :)

[mamamayhave]

What an inspiration.  One night of Janelle and ...

Love!

[Xenobia10]

'NEWBIRTH'.as we speak,the face of music is CHANGED!!

the coveted smal but mighty group include this lady,Jessie J,Esperanza Spalding and a few others

[Miss2sho]

I got proper Lauryn Hill vibes from this song. <3

[juicemane74]

@Miss2sho Good comparison!!!

[ROROLOVESDARMON]

omg i love janelle monae! i love her style she is so unique...she inspires me to the fullest!

[bosefunk1]

She has more soul and FUNK than Lauryn...Infact you cant compare them....SHE is another entity of talent. And different from lauryn which I have met, Janelle IS HUMBLE! Love HER!!!

[Bambi4562]

Damn....

*sigh*

[Shawty453]

I love love love her!!!!

[Shea354]

I love her!!!! She can do jazzy, R&B, funk, soul...she can do it all! This woman is AMAZING!

[sschi]

@Shea354 and rock too. SHe's ridiculous

[ohmusic25]

This is really the song!!! Beautiful done!!! I caught myself soing that song in my head and out loud after I first heard it!!! Fly!!!

[Starbucks051]

God, I love her .

[FightsRightsAlways]

@specsmenace true that's very true.but it would be nice in you could hear her song on a itune commercial or something.i just read about one republic and they haven't been doing so hot so they let ipod commercials use their songs.and people have now been trying to find out who they are.now their in high demand,am just wondering if the same thing could be done for her.

[angelrose2096]

Why cant i find this song on itunes! (sad day)

[DramaticLEY]

Janelle Monae=REAL TALENT

She is a beautiful girl with beautiful talent!

[michaeljacksonlov14]

I LOVE THIS SONG i heard it in a video i was lookin at and fell in love with it lol

[87flooby]

I love you coverage of Janelle's songs! I saw the video for Tightrope only recently and fell in total love with her. I just can't find 'The Audition'. Could you help me please?

Cheers.

[ChineseSerpent]

i'll never know what "cloud 9" is

[FightsRightsAlways]

i HATE,i just HATE that this girl is not getting in the lime light i like she's suppose to.if she was singing about sex,or love in the club or had some dumb rapper singing with her or if she was doing some dirty dances,am pretty sure we would hear about her just a little bit more.it's sick,people who actually sing about things that matter and have meaning can't get the fame that they truly deserve.hate the music industry sometimes.thumbs up if you agree.:)

[MsBigmama10]

@FightsRightsAlways i totally agree! she is just amazing and has so much 2 say but these blind and deaf ppl out here are just running right pass her to get to this meaningless music of today. its the most irritating thing ever to me...

[Shawty453]

@FightsRightsAlways Amen to that

[MroNeko]

@FightsRightsAlways Parts of you comment is right, but it's mainly who she signed with. e.i. Diddy, He's really just not promoting her right.

[FightsRightsAlways]

@MroNeko well i wonder why?!?.she's is fresh and she's a talented.her songs are catchy and they always get the party started so what's the problem??.p.diddy is a self center,arrogant,disrespectful,­no good fool who is only concern about making it about him.notice all of those groups that he produce?where are they now?what happened?did they die??.i mean seriously that man doesn't care,if he did i would have heard about the minute she came out.and not a year later.

[Meggerr69]

@FightsRightsAlways God, shut up. No one cares.

[FightsRightsAlways]

@Meggerr69 well apparently YOU do.if you didn't you wouldn't bother sending messages so let's not be hypocritical here okay??

[bengo940]

@Meggerr69 I care, good comment FightsRightsAlways

[KyuukaKoinu]

@Meggerr69 I care...? and so do 129 other people.

[fastasfox]

@FightsRightsAlways Ya know why! She doesnt have her tits hanging out or her scuds rammed so far up her arse ya cant tell she has any on........ and she dont over sing......Thats Right Reanna Beyonce Spears Im talking about you. ( i got ya back man)

[knapier]

@FightsRightsAlways I agree! She not naked, not singing about sex, the club AND she keeps her clothes on unlike Rihanna or these other poor female pop artists who gotta do what seems to be strip teases in they video in order to be recognized. Janelle is refreshing in that she brings originality, like Adele.

[FightsRightsAlways]

@knapier lol that's so true,but i wonder when she'll get the proper fame she deserves.

[EmpressSakama16]

@FightsRightsAlways

If she wants tghe fame she has to give up her soul, you do know that right?

The industry doesn't care if you can truly siing it's having to look the part & you have to be willing to give up your soul.......You do know that don't you?

[FightsRightsAlways]

@EmpressSakama16 lol okay i'm going to go ahead and say that you read my comment,but i'm also going to say that you didn't read it THOROUGHLY. i said IF she was singing about sex and other stupid things that mainstream artist sing about in today's world THEN SHE WOULD BE FAMOUS.but this woman isn't stupid, she has common sense and her TALENT takes her to were she wants to go.but thanks for asking,but i already know.

[IDontKnowCorp]

@FightsRightsAlways She's pretty well off, actually. I do agree though, she's got enough class to outrank Harvard

[michaeljacksonlov14]

this is very nice song love it

[patricdavidson]

Janelle Monae is exactly what the world needs. What talent. What class. What ambition. WOW!!

[patricdavidson]

Janelle Monae is exactly what the world needs. What talent. What class. What ambition. WOW!!

[SIRGAGA123]

I love to hear her early stuff, she's got sooo much good material!!!!

[urbanradio1]

this has that 90"s mary j blige vibe to it

[SIRGAGA123]

@urbanradio1 yeah, I get that vibe sometimes from her

[ozulu45]

NAH NOT FEELIN THIS ONE, THIS MIGHT BE FOR THOSE COMERCIAL B.E.T BRAIN DEAD IDIOTS, THAT LIKE THE SAME SHIT OVER AND OVER AGAIN!! I HOPE THERES MORE TIGHTROPE TYPE OF STUFF ON HER ALBUM!

[kdizzle180]

This reminds me of the soul r&b pop songs of the 90's all combined into one - classy! I bet she's tired of singin that song "Tight-rope" though - I know I would be!

[MrBugz89]

noowww this is reeeaalll music, sing it gurl. show these mainsteam singers how its done, one love

[TheInfluencerap]

style is truly unique and most real espescialy because she is a female that is the difference, how many girls can move like she does. truley amazing.

[toni94561]

I'm dedicating this to my hubby of 17 years, great song

[jungleboyent]

where can I find this album??

[rjb090683]

I really hope that boyish look of hers is a phase. She's gorgeous, but I'm not feeling the ambiguous thing.

[19IndependenVision88]

@rjb090683 it's just her costume for real real she is beautiful with her fro out and when she is dolled up

[MrPSUPark2013]

I love this song. I love her. She is awesomeness!!!

[IndigoGaGalover98]

Her Afro looked better than the pompador

[SiberianLeo24]

@IndigoGaGalover98 that new hair style cracks me up she looks so silly.

[kreativle]

So dope, so slept on...

[ribogok]

[GDsvideo]

I LOVE JANELLE MONAE !!

[uniquesinger]

she just got a new fan!

[Jarshee]

love it!!!!!!!!!!! I'M A FAN!

[fefeMarie11]

I love all of Janelle songs she is so unique everything about her from her style of dressing to her lyrics.keep doing ya thang

[msbiddy1]

I am officially a fan!!!!! Go Girl!

[AmberAntoinette95]

This song is hot

[jayduh10]

i have agree with the other 16yr old.

i'm the same age and Miss Monae has been bumpin in my speakers since i was like 11! The woman is so consistently dope, from lyrics to the beat to her vocals. simply classic.

[Cluv22]

I love u J. Keep doin yo thang baby

[lalachanel]

I like the music and she has a very unique soulful voice.

[djlala15]

She reminds me of Lauryn Hill in her soulful songs. it's kind of odd, but it's nice. I LOVE it. Janelle Monae is so FLY when it comes to music and i love her style too.

[MrOce123]

@djlala15 you know whats crazy.....i just wrote about the same thing to somone else..... she is just picking up where Lauryn left off.what happened to Lauryn anyway?I just heard JANELLE MONAE'S enterveiw on NPR news and could not believe the quality of her music

[ladylove326]

@djlala15 Lauryn Hill?....hum? cool, i was thinking more of erikah badu.

I think they have a simuliar approach to music. not exactly hip-hop ,nor r&b, yet fit so perfectly in either one

[jordanpolo189]

gotta disagree.dis cool but lacks substance and 2 in line with everything already pop.her metropolis sound is unique & allows her 2 set her own course.

[Meta4ce]

it was on the same album, dunces.

[idiobo]

I was going to say it'd be best if she put these types of songs with her metropolis-type of songs on the same album... until I realized that's what she already did.

You get the best of both worlds. Her vocals and talent is just pure gold <3

[charnelle15]

I'm 16 years old....i can trully say that this woman has talent .... i like her song..all u have to do is listen to the words..nd people my age only care about sexy and the beat..instead of what is really in the lyrics of songs... but however diddy could be more in her marketing...than in cassie and some of his other artist cause i belive that she would get more play is she was put ot the more.....

[catrina10]

blissful :)

[YJB20]

she looks better at 5 seconds

[Kognitive]

I concur, but unfortunately we live in a society where you really cant be plain and get attention, you have to have some type of flare or swag that people will notice and remember you by, so more then likely that is why she does her hair the way she does and wears those man suits.

[legedaryone]

Baby I love those suits..they are so fly and androgonious...Keep doing you Janelle!!!!

[Auragirl86]

good looking out on these Janelle Monae vids! Do you know when her album comes out?

[soulfulbohemian]

Her new album The Chase Suite came out about a month ago. I can also send you the link to get the album this song is on.

[raheimk]

@soulfulbohemian can i get the link to get this album plz

[Pinskip2]

@soulfulbohemian Can I get that link please? I've only got a few of these songs and I'd love to have them all together.

[JdGoo7]

@soulfulbohemian Could I PLEEEASE have the link to The Audition album? Good lookin on all the uploads!

[AramaiclySpeaking]

@soulfulbohemian hey, can you send me the link? I want to buy 'the Audtition.'

[Storme135]

@soulfulbohemian can you share the link for this album please!
