WATCH: Janelle Monae returns

The likes of 'Tightrope' got everyone talking about pint-sized, sharply-dressed R&B singer Janell Monae back in 2010 and now the Kansas star is back, hoping to build on the strong promise of The ArchAndroid.

She's enlisted some formidable pipes to herald her return, as new single 'Q.U.E.E.N' sees Monae team up with the fantastically talented Erykah Badu.

A real treat, the video has now been unveiled. Give it view below.

The track will feature on her forthcoming LP The Electric Lady.
