JANET is so SULTRY, but yet so SEDUCTIVELY SEXY, and a very SKILLED & TALENTED performer. To the people that don't know JANET is like MICHAEL she's on a level of her OWN. So please STOP comparing the others to her. I mean they're all GOOD, but JANET is GREAT. She's PAVED the way for a lot of the female artists of today like it, or not. She just doesn't really get the CREDIT anymore for some strange ass reason? Anyway Luv u J!
I don't know why people continue to question Janet's singing ablility!! Some of her best vocals are on "Pleasure Principle", "Love Will Never Do", "Again", "Together Again', "All For You", not to mention so many unreleased tracks on her albums that showcase her unqiue singing style. Let me ask you this, how many artists' voices have been versatile enough where they have sung pop songs (Rhythm Nation), R&B songs (I Get Lonely), Rock songs (Black Cat), even Country songs (What I'll Do)?
@unknown123434 um do you have a friend that is black too? (your statement is really prejudiced and ignorant.) There is nothing wrong with being str8, b/c my friend is str8. lol
I love Janet, I enjoy her music especially the Damita Jo album, but really... she hasn't got much of a singing voice. She might as well just say her words. I know she's dancing in this vid but even on her albums her voice is just average. I don't get why people think she's an amazing singer. Her brother Michael on the other hand... different story! ;)
@NerdGogo i have to disagree. it depends on the material...she has a really nice voice. not a screaming "patti" type voice but a good voice for her hits and her quiet storm type songs. some of her songs really showcase her voice. youtube "janet anytime anyplace SNL live" or "janet come back to me rhythm nation tour japan" or the song "lonely"...oh she's got a voice...trust
@miamivicepastels83 I respect your opinion. I just listened to 'Lonely' and she sounds pleasant but still rather weak. Her voice is soft, just like any other Jackson really, and therefore sometimes she can't reach lower notes (just like in her song Runaway). I just think there are much stronger female vocalists in the world. I've read that she's one of the best female vocalists and I just can't hear it myself. But hey, the world would be boring if we all thought the same :)
@NerdGogo cool. however it's unfair to call her a vocalist because shes not. shes a performer and entertainer. a vocalist would be someone like mariah, whitney, anita, faith evans, celine dion. performers: janet, madonna, britney, etc. that's y i think it's unfair that ppl criticize her voice. she's not a vocalist. now if she was going around calling herself a vocalist then i would see where u were coming from. and just because someone doesnt have a "strong" voice doesn mean they cant sing
@miamivicepastels83 That is very true.Thank u for putting that out there cause i am a die hard Janet jackson fan.I think she is a great entertainer,but my favorite 2 vocalist r Sade and Patti Labelle.. Ppl just need to stop comparing artists because they all r different and they all have there own style.Seriously if everyone sounded,looked,and danced the same then the music industry would be screwed up.
Could you all stop mentioning Beyonce and Britney on every Janet post?? Damn! Janet was a multimillion dollar icon when they were both in junior high. Let it go. TEAM JANET!!!
@Cosmictalk Try not to mention Ms. Britney in the same breath as Janet Jackson. I can only hope that you can discern the difference. One actually has talent. The other was factory produced by Disney (which isn't always a bad thing, but in this case...it is). The legacy and image of Ms. Jackson would take a tremendous hit if she shared the marquee with the ex-Mouseketeer. Brit can sell albums; she's highly marketable. But her talent (singing, dancing, passion) is well below the mark.
@thehyperevolution There was a time stretching from 1999-2004 when Britney was the second hottest female dancer on the market. She had bad ass stage presence, killed the choreographies thrown at her and added sexy vocals to it. But all changed when she got pregnant. Don't diss Brit cuz she has reached her iconic status with talent. Of course she doesn't touch janet but she was second in line among the female performers once upon a time...
@HKsWorld I can't deny the "iconic" status of J & B. My statement is based on the contrast I see between the mega-supastars. One is committed, diligent & enthusiastic about her imprint on music. One breathes/lives for the artistry of her work; embraces consistency. One is innovative, enterprising; a self reliant visionary. One writes, produces; engaged in her own material and image. The other, Britney, is the poster-child of an extremely successful manufactured product by her handlers.
@thehyperevolution But you can't deny spears's talent and there was a time she gained her creative control and wrote her own stuff (look up the credits for in the zone).
@HKsWorld BS' achievements are well noted. But her limited jurisdiction (see previous post) of the industry makes her a "cookie cutter-producer's artist." At one point, JJ was a PA, but through time we saw a "hands-on" revolution in her creative process (previous post). BS is notoriously documented as a cash cow-puppeteer controlled by handlers that pull the strings. As far as her talent, talent is subjective. Imo, BS is flawed in that area. The prequel to Hanna Montana where marketing rules.
@Giharl21 Obvisouly your B fan! with that Last gay arse comment you just made.I was responding to someone else's comment on a Janet & britney tour.All i said was more like A Janet & Beyonce Tour I'd rather see.But since you did tried and make a sly comment i'll say this there would be NO BEYONCE BRITNEY OR CIARA IF JANET NEVER SET THE BAR! JANET ,MARIAH,MADONNA,CELINE & WHITNEY ARE IN A LEAGUE OF THERE OWN.This generations talent is far less talented then these 5 women i just mentioned.RESPECT!
@jacobR1377 Obviously you need to hike it to nearest hooked on phonics table, because you need to learn how to read between the lines baby boo. I was giving Miss Janet her props. I would rather see Janet and Britney on stage together than seeing the lace front, pork sausage stuffed in a leotard better known as Beyonce anywhere on stage next to Letoya Jackson, let alone Janet.
@jenaya15 Here is something I'll shut you up with.Janet Jackson's Control, Rhythm Nation 1814 and janet. established the singer-dancer imprimatur standard in pop culture we now take for granted. So when you're thinking of asking Miss Jackson, 'What have you done for me lately?' remember that Britney, Ciara and Beyoncé live in the house that Janet built."[245]
@jacobR1377 umm no. u want shut me up cuz u not tellin me nothin i already dont kno. yes i kno about control and all janet other albums but ppl act like its bcuz of her tht they r famous and its not. ppl say tht janet paved their way but if janet wasnt famous then beyonce(cuz she was out first) would have came along and paved her own way. then it would be if it wasnt for bey there wouldnt be no so and so and yes it would be. mabe they were inspired but its bcuz of themselves tht they r famous.
