"Electric Lady" is a song by American psychedelic soul and Contemporary R&B, R&B singer Janelle Monáe featuring singer Solange Knowles, Solange. It was released on July 30, 2014 as the fourth and final single from Monáe's second studio album, ''The Electric Lady''. The song serves as the title track from the album and is one of the more up-tempo tracks on the album. Taking on the concept of female empowerment, "Electric Lady" focuses on the need for women to be themselves while at the same time maintaining self-control over their bodies and sexuality; therefore, taking the power over women's bodies from men. As with her song, "Q.U.E.E.N.", Monáe raps the climax portion of the song to further get her point across. She describes an electric lady during the rap section claiming, "She can fly you straight to the moon into the ghettos/Wearing tennis shoes or in flats or in stilettos," and "Illuminating all that she touches, eye on the sparrow/A modern day Joan of Arc, Joan of her Arc ...

Still Screenshot From Janelle Monae's Music Video For "Electric Lady"
A still is an apparatus used to distill liquid mixtures by heating to selectively boil and then cooling to condense the vapor. A still uses the same concepts as a basic distillation apparatus, but on a much larger scale. Stills have been used to produce perfume and medicine, water for injection (WFI) for pharmaceutical use, generally to separate and purify different chemicals, and to produce distilled beverages containing ethanol. Application Since ethanol boils at a much lower temperature than water, simple distillation can separate ethanol from water by applying heat to the mixture. Historically, a copper vessel was used for this purpose, since copper removes undesirable sulfur-based compounds from the alcohol. However, many modern stills are made of stainless steel pipes with copper linings to prevent erosion of the entire vessel and lower copper levels in the waste product (which in large distilleries is processed to become animal feed). Copper is the preferred material ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Radio(blog)
Radio is the technology of signaling and communicating using radio waves. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves of frequency between 30 hertz (Hz) and 300 gigahertz (GHz). They are generated by an electronic device called a transmitter connected to an antenna which radiates the waves, and received by another antenna connected to a radio receiver. Radio is very widely used in modern technology, in radio communication, radar, radio navigation, remote control, remote sensing, and other applications. In radio communication, used in radio and television broadcasting, cell phones, two-way radios, wireless networking, and satellite communication, among numerous other uses, radio waves are used to carry information across space from a transmitter to a receiver, by modulating the radio signal (impressing an information signal on the radio wave by varying some aspect of the wave) in the transmitter. In radar, used to locate and track objects like aircraft, ships, spacecraft and ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
