<p><a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/janelle-monae-fame-dream-apartment-car-500-fans/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Janelle Monáe</a> came through with a message for the people who were making lil jokey-jokes about her past fashions!</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">Twitter Says Janelle Monáe Used To Dress &#8216;Like The Monopoly Man&#8217;</h3>
<p>The matter all began on Twitter after one user observed that Janelle&#8217;s style has shifted in recent years. As a result, the person announced, &#8220;Janelle Monáe finally showing off how fine she is instead of dressing like the monopoly man.&#8221;</p>

<p>This was a clear reference to Janelle&#8217;s so-called &#8220;suit and tie era,&#8221; as she&#8217;s known to have often rocked a tux in the earlier days of her career. It also opened up a discussion on social media, which you can peep in our post down below.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Janelle Responds On Twitter: &#8216;No New Music Just For This&#8217;</h3>
<p>As the tweet began to pick up steam and circulate, it eventually found its way to the <em>Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery </em>actress.</p>
<p>Janelle proceeded to quote tweet the &#8220;monopoly man&#8221; statement and add in her own two cents. She humorously chastised everyone who liked the tweet and proclaimed, &#8220;No new music just for this.&#8221;</p>

<p>Later, Janelle called the user who sparked the conversation &#8220;pretty and funny,&#8221; showing it was all in good fun.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Janelle Monáe Steps Into <em>The Shade Room</em> With A Message: &#8216;I Shall Continue To Evolve&#8217;</h3>
<p>In addition to Janelle poppin&#8217; off on Twitter, she also dropped by <em>The Shade Room</em>&#8216;s comment section to leave a now-deleted message for the naysayers.</p>
<p>Specifically, she shared that—even in a suit and tie—she was stealing other people&#8217;s men, and her style left its mark.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I literally took so many of y&#8217;all n***as just wearing 1 black and white suit for over a decade. Can&#8217;t no artist even wear black and white without being compared to me. I did that.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Janelle continued, noting that she&#8217;s going to be a trendsetting icon in ANY clothing style she embraces.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I shall continue to evolve + remain an iconic trendsetting Freeazzmuthaf**a naked, tittles out, in haute couture, in a suit, or in a Halloween costume.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Finally, she powerfully ended her now-deleted comment by saying, &#8220;Get off my areolas!&#8221;</p>
