Janelle’s childhood was nothing to brag about, as her mother and dad were drug addicts. However, Janelle succeeded in getting away from that world with the help of her music talents, as she has been dedicated to music since her early days. She was a member of a choir in the local church, excelling in singing and also participating in some musicals at the local Theatre. She continued to develop her talents in high school, and after graduation from the F.L Schlagle High School, she enrolled in the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York on a full scholarship. However, she never finished the academy, because, as she has stated when interviewed, was feeling confined and wanted to write her own musicals.

Soon after she left the college, Janelle moved to Atlanta, Georgia, which would later turn out to be a life-changer, as she started to collaborate with a member of the hip hop group Outcast, Antwan “Big Boi” Patton. This collaboration enabled Janelle to start her own record label, “Wondaland Arts Society”, through which she released her debut EP entitled “The Audition” in 2003. However, the EP was not greeted as well as she had hoped as it sold only 400 copies.

Nevertheless, Janelle did not surrender and continued working on her career. In 2007 she released her first EP that would bring her national fame and recognition. She earned a nomination for the Best Urban\Alternative Performance for the single “Many Moons”. In addition, she toured with the group “No Doubt” which also increased her fame as well as her total net worth.

In 2010, she went on to record another huge commercial success, her first studio album, entitled “Arch Android”. Because of the very nature of the album, as it was meant as a concept, and because of the whole success, Janelle earned a nomination for the Best Contemporary R&B Album award. Her most successful release set the American music scene ablaze as it peaked at number five on the Billboard top 200. It was her second album entitled “Electric Lady”, released on the 6^th September 2013. Due to her previous successful release, she was able to collaborate with the singers Prince, Solange Knowles and others on this album, which contributed significantly to her fame and net worth.

Overall, her career has been quite successful, and it will continue to grow, as she has signed a deal with the “Epic Records”. Adding to her net worth, Janelle has been active throughout 2015, as she has released the single “Yoga” and as well plans to release an EP through her Wondaland Arts Society record label, which will include artists signed for the label.

To talk about her private life, there have been many rumors about her sexuality. However, nothing has been confirmed and Janelle has stated repeatedly that she only dates androids. Nevertheless, Janelle has been recognized as the LGBT activist.
