Janelle Monáe has announced her first album in five years, The Age of Pleasure. As a preview, she also released a single, "Lipstick Lover," along with an accompanying video.
"As we enter into The Age Of Pleasure Lipstick Lover is our freeassmothafucka anthem inspired by f.a.m. for f.a.m," Monáe wrote in a statement about the album. "This is our audio oasis made with love and signed with cherry red kisses from me to you."
The Age of Pleasure is set for release on June 9 via Wondaland Arts Society/Atlantic Records.
"Lipstick Lover" was produced by Monáe's frequent collaborator Nate "Rocket" Wonder. The video was directed by Monáe with Alan Ferguson.
"I like lipstick on my neck/ Baby, I'm obsessed, get me undressed/ I wanna feel your lips on mine," she sings on the track.
