However, the singer won't be going on a UK tour; instead, she'll perform for one night only in the newly opened O2 Brixton Academy in London, before playing a three-night residency at Aviva Studios in Manchester.

Whether you've come across this multi-hyphenate on screen or through their music, it's clear that Janelle Monáe is a phenomenal talent. She first rose to fame in the early 2000s, when her demo album The Audition grabbed the attention of P Diddy and his label.

Her debut studio album The ArchAndroid earned her her first Grammy nomination and wide critical acclaim when it was released in 2010. Since then, she's continued making music that showcases her song writing and vocal skills, such as the genre-bending Dirty Computer and their most recent release The Age of Pleasure.

Her musical style is difficult to define, with earlier albums boasting a hip-hop vibe and later releases packed full of retro-futuristic styles and afro-surrealism, with a little bit of funk, soul and pop sprinkled on top of everything, of course.

You can't talk about Janelle Monáe without talking about sci-fi. This musician manages to incorporate their love of sci-fi into their music in new and fantastic ways, going as far as to write an entire EP series based on the sci-fi movie Metropolis, as well as creating entire visual albums to accompany her releases.

It's not just about the visuals though; you only have to read the titles of songs and album to see the glaring sci-fi references. From ArchAndriod to Dirty Computer, her love of the genre is plain for all to see.

This Electric Lady is also known for roles in a wide range of movies, from 2016's Oscar-nominated Moonlight to Glass Onion, the latest Knives Out thriller.

All of this hard work has been recognised and rewarded, with Janelle Monáe receiving 10 Grammy nominations, as well as a Screen Actors Guild Award and a Children's and Family Emmy Award.
