Metropolis: The Chase Suite is a brilliant debut from newcomer Janelle Monae. By now, most of you have probably heard "Tightrope (featuring Bad Boy)" off of her second album, "The ArchAndroid. That catchy tune that sounds quasi James Brown and quasi Martha and the Vandellas, with a pinch of post apocalyptic soul thrown in for good measure. This album is how it all got started.

Here we find Metropolis Suite I of IV: The Chase, brainchild of budding diva Janelle Monae. What is essentially a familiar tale of forbidden love wrapped up in futuristic garb is spliced with genre-hopping musical accompaniment. The end result is a concept EP, firmly rooted in R&B and packed with enough bounce and surprises along the way to put a smile on nearly any listener’s face regardless of genre preferences. Space Opera is not exactly a subgenre that lends itself to a pop/r&b concept album such as Metropolis, and would likely collapse under the weight of its own lofty ambitions if not for the undeniable vocal talents of its composer. Stepping into character, she announces I’m an alien from outer spac. cyber-girl without a face, a heart or a mind.
