Initially teased on her social media platforms, Janelle Monáe has returned to music with her first single of 2023, “Float.”

Also featuring Seun Kuti and Egypt 80, the description of this track is nuts:

According to sources closest to Monáe, “Float” is inspired by Muhammed Ali talking sh*t in Zaire, 1974, Jane’s evolution, Mary Poppins’ umbrella, Aladdin’s magic carpet, Ja Morant’s flotation to the rim while dunking on his ops, Sara Elise’s ropes, excerpts from Paramahmsa Nithyananda’s talks on levitation, Raul’s toast on Dec 1, and Bruce Lee’s mighty philosophy on being “shapeless, formless,” and becoming one with your surroundings, to be like water…”

Yeah, this about to slap like crazy.
