Fuse Favorite: Watch Jidenna on Fuse All Week

It's not easy to impress a virtuoso like Janelle Monáe, but Jidenna has done exactly that, and now he's ready to wow the world. The Brooklyn-bred singer/songwriter is signed to Monáe's Wondaland label (which recently revamped itself by teaming up with the powerhouse known as Epic Records) and he looks poised to become one of R&B and hip hop's most exciting new voices in 2015. Get to know the Janelle-approved singer in the interview above.

"Janelle's a visionary, she has seen how far I can take it as an artist," the well-spoken singer says of his boss. "She knows how to take a small brand and make it larger and blow it up. It's been great to really work with her who is such a general and so fun and wild, all at the same time. Those are the elements you look for in a great artist."
