Default Janet Jackson

I’ve Been listening to Control and Rhythm Nation over the last couple of weeks and I’m just astounded by how slept on her music is! I’m looking forward to exploring more of her discography but these two albums are incredible...







She’s coming for Madonna as my favourite twentieth century artist

The entire Control->Rhythm Nation 1814->janet.->The Velvet Rope->All for You series is maybe the strongest showing of five consecutive albums ever?

I'm still disappointed in myself when like three years ago I could've gone to a convention for work but chose not to bc why would I voluntarily do that, and then I found out Janet was performing in Atlantic City that weekend

I've had Together Again on repeat for the last few weeks, but I honestly can't say I'm that familiar with her music otherwise.

Control and Rhythm Nation (which I haven't spent much time with yet) are both just unbelievably impressive.

Control is just an perfect 'coming of age' album... literally every track is a 9 or 10, but the ones I put in the OP are perfection... blissful sounds.

And honestly the opening three tracks of Rhythm Nation are an absolutely amazing trio... tbh, the first two minutes of the album (including the opening interlude) is probably the most epic album opening I've ever heard?

I didn't know she was slept on... she was a huge success and icon for my generation. Rhythm Nation was like a sound track for my teens lol.

Now I know I'm old

Started sinking my teeth into 'janet.' and I can already tell it's going to be another one in the basket from Miss Jackson for me...

That's The Way Love Goes, This Time, and Throb are the ones stuck on my brain so far. The first is honestly 90s pop-RnB bliss... This Time is wonderfully creative... and Throb sounds like something that belongs on Erotica so of course I love it
