Janelle Monáe shares snippet of new track ‘Float’

Float is her first new music since 2021 – when she shared Stronger and an extended version of Say Her Name (Hell You Talmbout). She released her most recent LP, ‘Dirty Computer’, in 2018.

In a recent interview, the multi-hyphenate – who stars in Netflix’s ‘Knives Out’ sequel ‘Glass Onion’ – confirmed she’s been back in the studio. 

Asked if we’ll be getting new music, she joked: “Actually, you will! You will get new music because I now have a clone. That clone does all of my music, and I have another clone for acting. I’m not going to tell you if it’s me or not. They’re in the studio right now!”

She added: “I just feel so humbled and super, super blessed to be doing anything. Doing something like this, you don’t take it lightly.”
