Official J. FERB Website : 1 of 37

understandably this is my blog/website, but the above video is Janell Monae’s - “Cold War” and I felt it to be a huge disservice to not share this with my followers and art connoisseurs/music lovers/and any human with the capacity to appreciate captured feelings.

this visual, complete with even more provoking music and lyrics, serve as the perfect juxtaposition to why bold is always transcendent. And I’m glad I could be one of the first to witness and appreciate an artist of Janelle Monae’s stature in my lifetime.

[captured in one take as expressed by the director, this showcases the song’s prevalent significance to the writer. (and her action’s are as validating and sincere as any)]

The same way you can call a spade a spade, you can call a lyricist a lyricist. A rapper with East Coast lyrics and delivery with a Memphis accent assures more heads to turn for J. Ferb in the future, so keep your dome on tight and be on the lookout for this dude!

Music takes us out of the actual and whispers to us dim secrets that startle our wonder as to who we are, and for what, whence, and whereto.
