Last week (Feb. 16), Janelle Monáe revealed that she will be returning to music with her first album in a half-decade. Dubbed Dirty Computer, she previewed the project with a unique trailer.

Monáe has now unveiled the first two singles from the project, “Django Jane” and “Make Me Feel.” Speaking to Beats 1’s Zane Lowe, Monáe elaborated on the concept of Dirty Computer. “I actually had this title on this concept before my first album The ArchAndroid, and it scared me because a lot of the things that I knew that I needed to say were very deep, very personal, from the heart,” she said. “This is an extremely vulnerable album and it took me a while to make it because I’m a self editor.”
