Despite the short, 50-minute set, Janelle Monáe doesn’t water down a moment of this gig.

She's in the UK this summer.

Produced by Nana Kwabena, Nate “Rocket” Wonder and Sensei Bueno, the track is the musician's first new music proper since 2018.

The Grammy-nominated recording artist shared a video of herself in the studio over the weekend.
