I don't believe I've never made a topic about her before.

So she's an EXTREMELY talented singer from ATL by way of the Midwest. After being indie for a while, and toted by the one and only Outkast, she got signed to Bad Boy Records a few months ago. Honestly, that kind of upset me since I LOVE her and Diddy likes to neglect his artists, but when I went to one of her showcases back in the Spring, he called experiencing her like catching the holy ghost. And you know what?

He's right. Completely restored my faith in him. She's just that good.

One listen will have you... on some other shit, to say the least.

And if you can, check out the premier of her video for "Many Moons" on BET, tonight. Like now. Literally.

I've been a fan since 2003's The Audition. Her sound is unique.

Bumping because Janelle is criminally unknown.

But Santi and Janelle make completely different kinds of music.

All I am saying... is give her a chance! </Lennon>

I like her ability, but I feel that she will fall by the wayside just like every other Bad Boy artist has.

I don't even know why she signed with Bad Boy. I hope she proves me wrong.
