Janelle Monáe’s New Song ‘Pynk’ Is A Glorious Ode To Vaginas, Complete With Amazing Music Video
Grimes, Tessa Thompson and Vulva Pants: what's not to love?

Benevolent android overlord and music visionary Janelle Monáe is back at it, and once again she’s delivered us something truly stunning. Her new single ‘Pynk’ is a glorious ode to vaginas, femme empowerment and (of course) the colour pink, and you need to see the accompanying music video immediately.
The new song is the second single off Monáe’s upcoming album Dirty Computer, and it’s her second collaboration with Grimes. The music video features actress Tessa Thompson — more specifically, it features Thompson’s head sandwiched between Monáe’s thighs, which are gloriously clad in what can only be described as vagina pants.
Or more technically vulva pants, but let’s not quibble over anatomical details when there are works of art to behold:

The song’s already being hailed as a (queer) masterpiece, and with good reason. I mean, look at this.

“PYNK is a brash celebration of creation. self love. sexuality. and pussy power!”
Janelle has a whole ass song about her appreciation of vaginas, accompanied by a video featuring vaginas everywhere, including vagina pants. I love it.
