Janelle Monáe: Moonwalking

Now this is a proper 2008 music video. Horses, laser beams, cyborgs, and androids…It’s pure, intergalactic pandemonium in the Metropolis inspired world of Janelle Monáe. Chronicling the narrative of Cindi Mayweather, Monáe struts and kicks her way through a thoroughly ferocious performance of “Many Moons,” her erratic, politically charged burst of organ-fueled energy. I adore her showmanship, and, as evidenced throughout this video, her chameleon nature! Just watch for the sheer amount of characters she’s playing! Glorious.
