Janelle Monáe - Dirty Computer [Emotion Picture]
Here it is, all 45-ish minutes, all Monáe, gently but decidedly pushing the concept album concept to its limits with a feature-length film that accompanies the Dirty Computer album with a sci-fi-driven story of rebellion, love, sex and redemption. With references to The Warriors, Blade Runner, THX 1183, Kill Bill, Guy Bourdin and Zabriskie Point to name a few.
