BaBopByeYa

BaBopByeYa

Janelle Monáe

“BaBopByeYa” is the epic finale track in Monáe’s The ArchAndroid. It features three distinct movements and incorporates impressive use of orchestral instrumentation.

BaBopByeYa serves as Cindi Mayweather’s melodic call to her lover, Anthony Greendown. He is her BaBopByeYa. In a video describing the track, her production team refers to the track as the “Moby Dick” of The ArchAndroid. The composition has bossa-nova influences and is especially theatrical.
