Hot Video Alert: Janelle Monae – Smile (Live on Billboard.com’s ‘MashUp Mondays’)

One of my FAVORITE artists right now, Janelle Monae dazzles us with her powerful pipes, singing her rendition of a Charlie Chaplin classic, “Smile” taken from Chaplin’s film Modern Times. Monae truly shows us just how talented she is with her flawless vocals, complemented by her vintage styling. Just PERFECT. Check out a behind the scenes slideshow of Monae recording the track on the fabulous new MashUp Mondays Column on Billboard.com.
