Janelle Monáe Cuts Loose With New Single, “Yoga”

She rhymes “yoga” with “areola” and it sounds like a hit.

March 31, 2015

There's no doubt Janelle Monáe is a visionary artist who has carved out her own niche merging neo-soul, jazz, and hip-hop to hyper-slick effect, but she's still capable of letting loose and having a bit of fun. On "Yoga," her new single featuring Jidenna—one of the artists we recently highlighted on her new label Wondaland—Monáe drops the look-twice line, get off my areola. And while the bass-heavy beat and radio-ready hook might not induce actual yoga, it sounds like a sure-fire hit.
