The ArchAndroid Crown: Designed by Zoman Ignatius, the half-elf, half-human mystic, reportedly 500 years ago. According to legend, the crown has several magic properties, as well as innovative technologies that can be employed only by The ArchAndroid. Zoman was a consummate inventor, artist and sculptor, a cross between Tesla and Da Vinci, and as such, he designed the crown to be a work of beauty that would embody the very spirit of Metropolis. According to legend, the crown features prominent Metropolis buildings and towers that will light up radiantly when the one and only true ArchAndroid wears the crown. According to the Daily Horos, this opulent headdress was stolen from the vaults in the Black House, reportedly by 1954, in October of 2715. Several members of 1954 were hunted down and executed for this crime. But the crown was never found. Many claim it has been secreted away to the Wonderground. There is also word that in the year 2010, several 1954 operatives have crafted a replica of this historic headdress to be worn by Janelle Monáe in anticipation for her album The ArchAndroidno word on whether or not this replica has magic properties The Living Cyktionary, 9th Edition, 2719 read more..

Elegant, Unique, and My new Fave!! by M. Skwiat
There was so much buzz surrounding this album and at first it sounded to good to be true. I read some of the reviews on amazon and it got my attention. I then listened to some of the tracks and I heard such a unique and amazing sound. I went and bought this album on Wednesday and it has yet to leave my cd player/ Ipod. Janelle Monae has such a beautiful sound to her voice. The album literally has something for everyone, and the music lover in all of us will appreciate her sound. Listening to these songs I was reminded of artists that I love like Prince, Jimmi Hendrix, Billie Holiday, Lauryn Hill, and a little of the white stripers. The greatness of this album and the artist in general is that she remains her own person. she borrows from R&B, funk, pop, soul and hip hop but she remains true to herself. One thing I love is that her sound is different. Each song has it's own power and magic to it that I instantly connected with. This is an album that any music lover would love!
