There’s no question that Janelle Monae’s latest album, 'Electric Lady,' is one of the most vibrant R&B albums of 2013. The Grammy-nominated singer made her 'Saturday Night Live’ debut over the weekend and much like her album, gave an electrifying performance.

One can try to place Janelle Monáe into a box, but that would accomplish nothing. This is a woman who thrives by expressing herself through various genres, which is showcased most excellently on her new album, 'The Electric Lady,' out Sept. 10.
