The singer and songwriter has kept a busy schedule full of similar appearances over the past year in promotion of her 2018 studio album, Dirty Computer. There’s an impressive buzz surrounding Monáe’s live performance, which weaves together an artistic mix of musicianship, choreography, and sociological empowerment.
