The caption condensed the unperturbed feeling of the post into one sentence. This, combined with the pictures and Monáe' cool sense of style, gave off an overall feeling that the acclaimed artist could melt ice herself.
SHE DOESN'T CARE
In the second photo, she is nonchalantly looking up, her blazing sunglasses catching the shades of the sky. Her subtle golden earrings paired with light lipgloss, white nail polish, as well as white and blue suspender straps, brought it all together.
Monáe is famed for her usually black and white attire, as well as her monochromatic looks, in this case, filled to the brim with blue. Her followers rushed to compliment her one-color choice, leaving just over 100,000 likes behind them.

SHE HAS STYLE
Monáe doesn't only use her pipes to sing, she is unapologetically fiery and opinionated on many topics such as race, sexuality, and of course, style. She has spoken about how she gets herself to fully accept her distinctive fashion sense, saying:
"Embracing your uniqueness is an active choice."
She went on, describing how she doesn't simply begin her days simply feeling empowered, beautiful, and courageous. Rather, the artist continued, she makes a conscious daily decision to experience her life that way.
SHE'S GOT A VOICE
Last year this outspoken and multifaceted music maker expressed her disdain concerning sexism and misogyny in the hip-hop industry. Monáe called for these out-dated and discriminatory patterns to be completely abolished.

Monáe feeds her activism into her music. One of her many popular songs, namely "Django Jane" is a rebellious song that appears to be a rallying feminist anthem, specifically made for black women.
This singer is also not afraid to speak about sexuality, where, a few years ago she came out as pansexual. She spoke to the queer community about her "Computer Freak" album, claiming it as a debut to them.
