This summer, in June 2023, Janelle Monáe put out her fourth album, The Age of Pleasure. Listening to it made me want to revisit her Song Exploder episode, from 2018. One thing on Song Exploder that I personally love is when we get to hear an artist's raw voice memo, from the moment when they're first coming up with a song idea. This episode has one of my all-time favorites. Janelle Monáe is an award-winning musician and actress who released her first record in 2007. She's been nominated for multiple Grammys, and she starred in the Oscar films Moonlight and Hidden Figures. In April 2018, she released her third album, Dirty Computer, which includes this song, “So Afraid.” In this episode, Janelle Monáe takes “So Afraid” apart, to explain how she built it, step by step—beginning with a trip to the dentist. For more, visit songexploder.net/janelle-monae.

The Age of Pleasure is that “paradise found,” where she can, and does, love quite freely. “We're in the Age of Pleasure baby, the Age of Pleasure,” Monáe reinstates to me over Zoom. On her last album, Dirty Computer, Monáe's alter-ego Jane 57821 led a group of Black femme dissidents who broke free from The New Order, the totalitarian group of oppressors, and now they are living and loving in the Age of Pleasure. The “paradise found” in The Age of Pleasure is an island of Black beauty, somewhere in the humid Caribbean, where it's always golden hour, fresh fruit is being served in abundance to a beautiful group of people who do not make a distinction between friends and lovers.

  Could the power of story-telling help create a better reality?  Afterglow is a stunning collection of original short stories in which writers from many different backgrounds envision a radically different climate future. Published in collaboration with Grist, a nonprofit media organization dedicated to telling stories of climate solutions, these stirring tales expand our ability to imagine a better world. Afterglow draws inspiration from a range of cutting-edge literary movements including Afrofuturism, hope-punk, and solar-punk—genres that uplift equitable climate solutions and continued service to one's community, even in the face of despair. The Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, disabled, feminist, and queer voices in this collection imagine intersectional worlds in which no community is left behind. Whether through abundance or adaptation, reform, or a new understanding of survival, these stories offer flickers of hope, even joy, as they provide a springboard for exploring how fiction can help create a better reality.

Oscar-winning actor Geena Davis discusses her new memoir, Dying of Politeness, about her journey to Hollywood stardom and how she learned to become a little bit more "badass" along the way. Singer-songwriter Janelle Monáe talks about her literary debut, The Memory Librarian: And Other Stories of Dirty Computer, and how she explores her queer, Black identity on the page. Rad Simonpillai reviews Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's superhero debut in Black Adam and whether the movie marks a new era for the DC film universe.

Kris is away this week, so Tara lit up the Queer Signal and her friend from Toronto, Amanda, showed up. Amanda and Tara talk different Pride events and their own queer journeys, before diving into recommendations. If you enjoy this episode, please consider buying Kris & Tara a Ko-fi! Official Recommendations Tara describes Purposefully Accidental by G. Benson as an explosion of trope candy. Enemies to lovers? It's in there. Slow burn? You betcha. Fake relationships? Of course! It follows the story of a famous actress coming back into contact with a childhood friend she once humiliated, who still holds a grudge. A grudge that develops into…romance! Amanda's recommendation is The Untamed (2019), which is a difficult TV series to sum up. It's a fantasy historical Chinese drama set in a world where cultivators (spiritual warriors) battle evil spirits, demons, and sometimes each other in cross-clan conflict. But really, it's just the story of two lovely boys who, while queer in the original source material, aren't allowed to be overtly queer onscreen, due to censorship. That said, it's still pretty gay and a great story.

What does it mean to have agency over your memories? What do you gain when you put your phone down and pay attention to what's happening right in front of you? And what's a dirty computer, anyway? Before Janelle Monáe was a Grammy-nominated artist, she was busy writing short stories. As a kid, she wrote science fiction and horror stories, including one where her grandmother was abducted by aliens. But her love of sci-fi and horror didn't stop there — it's something you can hear in her albums, like The ArchAndroid and Dirty Computer. Tom spoke with Janelle when she released her first collection of short stories called The Memory Librarian: And Other Stories of Dirty Computer.

Are you ready to dive into some summer reading? MPR News host Kerri Miller has nine titles you should put on your list. On this week's show, a “Take it to the Lake” special, she asked three people who spend a lot of time recommending books to devoted readers what titles they would put in your hands this season. She also talked to them about what makes a good summer read. Here's what she heard. Glory Edim is the founder of Well-Read Black Girl , a podcast and digital literacy platform that celebrates the uniqueness of Black literature and sisterhood. Courtesy of Tiffany A. Bloomfield Glory Edim. “In the summer, I pick a book that lets me follow the plot. I'm in love with the voice; I'm a very voice-driven writer and editor. So if I can find a story that has a really sensational and powerful voice, I tend to save those reads for the summer, because that's my fun time. That's my let's-get-lost-in-a-story time.” Summer book picks: “Post-Traumatic” by Chantel V.

And I just want to pretend like I have a summer vacation again. I want to carve out the time to travel and make sure I have a couple of books on hand.” Summer book picks: “Memphis” by Tara M.

Personally, as the buyer, I try not to exert my will or interest on the curation. But at the same time, that's what keeps it interesting for me.” Summer book picks: “Trust” by Hernan Diaz “The Anomaly” by Hervé Le Tellier “The Sea of Tranquility” by Emily St. John Mandel Bonus pick from Kerri: “The Long-Shining Waters” by Danielle Sosin To listen to the full conversation you can use the audio player above.

Finalmente, te recomendamos la serie Severance. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/creative-talks/message

Musician, actor, and fashion icon Janelle Monáe has long been creating sci-fi worlds through her albums and performances. With her new short story collection The Memory Librarian, Monáe, along with a team of collaborators, expands on the Afrofuturistic world of one of her critically acclaimed albums, Dirty Computer.  Dirty Computer introduced us to a world where people's memories—a key to self-expression and self-understanding—could be controlled or erased by an increasingly powerful few. And whether human, A.I., or something in-between, citizen's lives and sentience were dictated by those of the New Dawn, who'd convinced themselves they had the right to decide fate—that was, until Jane 57821 remembered and broke free. On April 24, 2022, Monáe came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco to appear in conversation with one of the Memory Librarian collaborators, short story writer Yohanca Delgado, and George M. Johnson, whose memoir All Boys Aren't Blue, has been banned in a recent wave of censorship of books dealing with themes like race and gender identity.

Singer-songwriter Janelle Monáe talks about her literary debut, The Memory Librarian: And Other Stories of Dirty Computer, and how she explores her queer, Black identity on the page. Playwright Chloé Hung discusses her new dark comedic play, Three Women of Swatow, about three generations of Chinese women who discover they are bound by more than blood. Rappers Ad-Rock and Mike D of the Beastie Boys reflect on their journey from teenage punk rockers to hip hop pioneers, plus, the group's legacy after the death of Adam Yauch.

Trailblazing global superstar Janelle Monáe joins the Red Table and shares her inspiring message for anyone who's ever felt like they didn't fit in or can't be themselves. This unapologetic Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter, actor, fashion icon, LGBTQIA+ superhero, and author of the new book "The Memory Librarian: And Other Stories of Dirty Computer" reveals what inspired her to come out later in life. Janelle shares how she overcame her fears of abandonment and healed from the traumatizing effects of her father's drug addiction. Then, a special appearance by Janelle's fierce and fun-loving mom shakes up the Table. Plus, a dream comes true for a Janelle superfan See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this conversation recorded on April 18 for Washington Post Live, singer, actor and activist Janelle Monáe discusses her latest album, and her debut book, “The Memory Librarian: And Other Stories of Dirty Computer.”

Yanira shares why she deleted Goodreads and how it's improved her reading life, and we talk about rereading books before we dig into books we've read and liked lately.

The Table Is Ours season two comes to a close with peak style and grace. The one and only singer, songwriter and award-winning actress Janelle Monáe pulls up a throne to the table. Her electric energy and indescribable poise lights up the room as she discusses the music and artists that influenced her career, and the family ties that keep her grounded. She also shares an intimate dream she had about the next generation of artists she's influenced, and how she continues to innovate on her style and voice to this day. Finally, she explains the power of Afrofuturism, how it informs Black culture, and why it's important to her identity and her music. Plus, we get a first look into her new collection of short stories titled “The Memory Librarian,” an anthology based on her stellar album Dirty Computer. Come ready with champagne in your chalice because this episode we toast to the future of Black culture. This episode is brought to you by our sponsor Martell: Blue Swift and Acast Creative.

Pop Filter: A Decade of ExcellenceAlbum of the Decade YourPopFilter celebrates 11 years of podcasts by choosing the most important album of the last decade! Nothing defines a decade like its albums. Maybe the kids don't like them as much anymore. Heck, maybe they're not hip, but darn it they're important. Plus, the last decade had some of our favorite artists making some of our favorite albums. Dirty Computer, by Janelle Monae; Lemonade, by Beyoncé; and Fetch the Bolt Cutters, by Fiona Apple; just to name a few. These albums helped make the show what it is today. In many ways the albums of the last decade taught us about music, but more importantly they taught us a little something about life. So we did what we always do and made them fight it out to see which was the most deserving of our love. It's how we were raised. It's how we will die.  All of that, and inevitably more, on an all-new PopFilter Podcast! Make sure to also: Check out the 1975 bracket Visit our website Use our Amazon page! Join our Patreon team!

Después, en Necesito Hablarlo, Andrea nos habla sobre cómo se hacen amigos cuando eres adulto (no, de verdad, ¿cómo?) Terminamos con las recomendaciones donde Andrea nos recomiendo Dirty Computer, un album increíble creado por Janelle Monae que habla sobre la identidad desde una perspectiva de una mujer negra y queer.
