The vocal take on Do It 2 Me is so horrible. It's like sis was holding her nose in the recording booth.

Y'all crazy Do It 2 Me is a banger one of the only good songs off 20 Y.O.

Janet Jackson is probably the greatest contemporary artist in history she really knows how to set the mood with her slow songs her ballads and everything and she understands harmonies so damn much really don't understand why her and Mariah or a collaboration with Brandy never happened.

Janet Jackson was suppose to have been honored the Global Icon award last Sunday at the Grammy's according to TMZ but they wanted to avoid responsibility after her Super Bowl incident.

Yea, the nasal vocals on 20 N.O. are unfortunate. I wonder why she changed her technique during those sessions. She sounded like her usual self on Damita Jo even while working with multiple different producers.

20YO was really a low for her but Enjoy and Days Go By are brilliant. I also like With U and Roll witchu

:cries: appreciate you recognizing the greatness even though you don't care for the album in general.

I like “Love Scene,” but it really could’ve been a musical interlude.

Hmmm...I wouldn't mind that actually. Her interludes are so short, it would be nice to have some 1 or 2 minute interludes instead.

Unfortunately for us, Janet is allergic to going viral. Queen of dance music and yet nothing. 

 

Personally, I don't think a lot of the viral hits we see are organic. Maybe if Janet was signed to a label or someone else was benefiting from her catalogue she would've already had multiple songs trend on TikTok. :coffee2:

:ahh:

 

I agree that a lot of viral hits are payola. But Janet's songs can definitely go viral and she had some viral moments in recent month (that lady singing ATAP and "doin' the bending").

Between this and Slolove I'm very bummed we didn't get a version of the album that explored those genres more. It's like she was held back

They dialed it down and played it safe.

 songs like "Take Care" which I think is the best song off the album as well as Roll Witchu, Days Go By, Daybreak, With U and Do It 2 Me those songs are very strong and some of her best songs in her acclaimed catalog.

:cm:

Imma stick besides 20 Y.O. and defend this track's vocals too. 

 

I like the production. I like the harmonies. Her voice was definitely deeper on 20 Y.O. than Damita Jo and I liked how she used her lower register on "there are no boundaries to what we do" and the bridge.

This video aged poorly with those cheap ass animation and graphics in the intro and outro. The scenes of Eve & Ja Rule :bibliahh:. To think $1.5M was spent for it. :gaynetcat4:

:bibliahh: but honestly that movie was the best acting she's ever done, I genuinely felt bad for the character.

 

 

 

The All Nite (Don't Stop) music video has finally been unblocked! Somehow it has 2.5M views :deadbanana2:

Watch ATRL say because she isn't a white Gen Z kid, it doesn't count:coffee2: but at the end of the video you clearly see she's teaching a young white boy about Janet. :foxaylove2:

It was available in Canada and Japan before being unblocked worldwide iirc. Perhaps Germany too.

Because a premier for a video that everyone has already seen seems pointless

It wasn't available in Canada and Japan like the videos that were unblocked last year. This particular upload was from the official EMI channel where it was available many years ago. 

 

You can see here it was originally uploaded in 2009 and was still available back in 2014: https://web.archive.org/web/20140711084640/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hn81K1Fm03Y 

 

It was then removed due to a copyright claim: https://web.archive.org/web/20151210113256/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgeAUejUZhg

 

The copyright claims on both Alright and All Nite were finally removed allowing them to now be made available again with the old views and comments restored.

Despite majority the views from these videos are from newer fans and the premier brought a lot of views to the videos within days they were already over 1 million views and so.

Literally any of her songs. :eli:

 

Something from Allah For You or Damita Jehovah probably has the best chance?

Yeah, I'm with this. Something from the 2000's deserves justice and popularity. Especially from Damita Jo.
