The ArchAndroid is the debut studio album by American singer-songwriter Janelle Monáe. It was released on May 18, 2010. The album is the second and third parts of Monáe's Metropolis concept album series (first started in the EP Metropolis: The Chase Suite), which is inspired by the 1927 film of the same name. The album tells the fictional tale of Cindi Mayweather, an android messiah sent back in time to free the citizens of Metropolis from The Great Divide, a secret society that uses time travel to suppress freedom and love. | |

Baroque Pop: Especially noticeable on the tracks with full symphony orchestra, but all the songs are intricately detailed. | |

Afrofuturism | |
| The ArchAndroid (Music) / int_2123cbe8 | comment |
Afrofuturism: The album's core aesthetic for both the imagery and the story told in the lyrics. The main protagonist, Cindi Mayweather, is an android running from Droid Control who wants to punish her for the sin of falling in love. | |

Spoken Word in Music: Monáe is joined by poet Saul Williams on the album's opening track, "Dance or Die." He provides the intro as well as the bridge to the song. | |

| The ArchAndroid (Music) / int_a3a7c41 | comment |
Black Sheep: "Make the Bus" stands out as the only song on the album that does not feature a writing credit from Monáe. of Montreal's frontman, Kevin Barnes, is the song's sole writer. Janelle seems to have taken the back seat on this song unlike on the other tracks. | |
