Janelle Monae has unveiled the video to 'Electric Lady', the title track to her latest 2013 album. Check it out below.
Featuring cameos from a flurry of her musician friends, as well as her own mother, the visuals see Monae embrace the Electro Phi Theta vibe and host a star studded sorority party with guests including T.I, Esperalza Spalding, Kimbra and Estelle.
The theme of 'Electric Lady' is in true spectacular Monae fashion and is the fourth track to be released from her current album which peaked at Number 14 on the UK charts last September.

Both President Obama and wife Michelle are notorious supporters of the singer, and in a press release accompanied with the video, The First Lady said:
“First of all, I am honored to be the first Electric Lady. I got my letter in the mail — I framed it; it’s up. I love that she is one of the young artists here who is making music that means something. She has a message. She has a voice. She has a power in her. And she understands the responsibility she has within her grasp to take these opportunities and just take off with them. She serves as a role model and an inspiration to so many young people. And I am happy to call her my friend. I am so proud of her.”
