This album is the follow-up to her critically-acclaimed debut album "The ArchAndroid".

Janelle wrote on her Twitter account: "Q.U.E.E.N. was inspired by private discussions between Erykah and me. It is meant to make you JAM. DANCE. FUNK OUT. and dialogue later…" she tweeted.

The single will be released on iTunes on April 23rd.
