Giant Step, Hudson & Charity Water Present Janelle Monáe
Tuesday, May 12 2009
New York City Hudson Hotels, New York NY


event description
Giant Step, Hudson & Charity Water invite you to an intimate performance by Janelle Monáe to celebrate the opening of Private Park at Hudson.

Renegade, innovator, modernizer, leading light and Grammy Award nominee for "Best Urban Performance" - in such a short amount of time, Janelle Monáe has grown from a singer into a phenomenon. Launching under the tutelage of Diamond-certified duo, Andre 3000 and Big Boi - now more than ever, the eyes of the world are on her. Her highly anticipated album Metropolis, out this spring on Bad Boy Records, incorporates elements of electronica, hip hop, rock and soul.

Janelle Monáe’s live show mesmerizes crowds with her incredible voice, innovative dancing and stage antics, including crowd surfing, throwing her saddle shoes into the crowd and jumping into swimming pools.



"Ms. Monáe has one of the most enchanting voices of our generation." -- André 3000 of OutKast

"Monáe's upcoming album, Metropolis, is poised to bring an eclectic, urbane feel to today’s R&B." -- VIBE Magazine

Featuring music by DJ Ge-ology.
