When I first heard Janelle Monae several months ago and started to describe her music to friends and co-workers, I was left with a lot of strange looks.
Sure – it sounds a little weird to say that your favorite new thing on the IPod is “kind of hip-hop, but kind of neo-soul, but rocks a little, too” and even more so that it is a concept album about androids and time travel and destiny. I finally just started most conversations with this phrase: “You really just have to hear it…”
Sometimes it is hard to explain why there is a certain amount of hype surrounding a new artist, but this is not the case with Janelle Monae. She is turning heads everywhere from Rolling Stone to Sound Opinions because she is just so hard to explain.
She is lauded by Puff Daddy and sings with members of Outkast – but she is not hip-hop.
Music Theatre Louisville will present its final show of the summer, Annie, beginning this Friday.

Shows will take place on August 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 at 7 p.m. each night. Matinee performances will take place on August 7, 8, 14, and 15 at 1:30 p.m.

Lord of the Rings. Just about everyone knows it, or should know it. After all, it was a successful book series, followed by and even more successful movie trilogy. On Friday, May 21, one man, Charlie Ross, will tackle the trilogy in his show One Man Lord of the Rings.
