FreelovesJJ Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 I love soothing music like this!!! It gives me Jill/Erykah teasthis is Janet's vibe very much so and I love that kind of music too. Janet hasn't had an EXCELLENT ballad in a long time. This is her vibe & direction. It would do some justice. Also that other track is a good mid tempo too. Janet could use some diversity but Unbreakable was great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know I actually love "Can't B Good". I think it could've been a top 10 on the R&B charts. I already know "What's Ur Name?" would've been a hit on urban radio. Too bad L.A. Reid fucked everything up for that album. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laveaux Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Unbreakable was Janet's best album in YEARS, so if it ain't JJ/TL...I don't see it for them. And the reason why Feedback did so well was bc Janet promoted it and performed it on shows...imagine if she would have did that with BurnItUp...Chile please. Jimmy and Terry is where it's at.

Jimmy and Terry is where it's at.BIU is not aging well for me. I think it was good at initial listen but it had a dated feel. I think Dammn Baby has a better vibe for time. I feel jimmy and terry are the foundation but it doesn't hurt to get the right contractor. That's what they did with the last album Dem Jointz is responsible for a lot of what you like 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Eagle and Take Me Away were done solely by the Triumverate, and those tracks stand up with Janet's classics IMO. The Night track was originally written by Mickey Shiloh and Tommy McClendon, but the Triumverate knew what to do to make it a killer track. But again can't become a hit if people don't know about it!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 (edited) All I know is Janet's last hit "Feedback" was produced by Rodney Jerkins and someone else."Feedback" was and remains the shit....all will deal Edited August 13, 2017 by Bailey. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dal Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Feedback is her best single in the last 15 years... it's legit one of my all-time favs of hers and I'm convinced that it could've/would've/should've been her last #1 hit song... I don't know what exactly should've been done to make it top the charts (maybe she shouldn't had waited til the day of Discipline's release to perform it for the first time, maybe the video should've been better (I liked it), maybe they should've played the Payola game more back then, etc)...idk.. but I'm sure if it was released by Rihanna or Britney back in December of 2007 it would've been #1...oh wellI feel like Janet loves that song also, which is why she's performed it during every show she's done since 2008.. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawdToday Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 No they didn’t NEED neither a third person not a bigger budget sorry Janet didn’t use a camp of full of writers and producers like BeyonceProb why her album wasn't as acclaimed? idkJimmy & Terry's best days are behind them clearly. Sad! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawdToday Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 JJ/TL are great, but she needs to incorporate other talent!!! The productions on Unbreakable were just a digital mess out. Not seeing any of their previous collabs! Sorry! Highlights like Night and Dammn Bby came from other producers. Even target-exclusive-that-should-have-been-on-the-album Love u 4 life was someone elses work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawdToday Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Honestly prime example of how JJ&TL are washed. I love this song and the melody of the chorus and janet sounds divine but this production is the pits. Cheap and tacky. Down to that corny ass "guitar" solo at the end. Where is the real instrumentation? This is NOT going to age like their previous work at all! No shade! Janet delivered, but JJ let us down! Point blank! WASHED! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_KINGSEANCOURT_ Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Lessons Learned sounds so beautiful. I love the production (It's so velvet rope to me) Black Eagle (amazing) Promise Of You (I'm in love with this song) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally this is not one of my favorite songs I'm not a fan of choppy vocals Janet. I genuinely don't like the vocals on the versus but I completely disagree about JJ/JT they're still very great producers. Lessons Learned is a great song, but I feel like they have the perfect formula they just could use other influencers in the mix. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Wonder Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 When Janet worked with other producers, we got 20YO and Discipline. Ya'll want that again? The only good to come out of that were RWU, FB, and Luv. There's a reason why the second half of 20YO sounds better than the first. The trio (J-J-T) did a great job of updating Janet's sound, but keeping in time with classic Janet from structure to content. Some of the tracks on this album can stand next to her old material, namely DB, BE, AYF, GBA, and UB. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 I actually think she will do a couple of interviews. She seems to be in a different space now. I don't see it for Kelly Alexander.#sorryboutitthat's wrong, Kelly Alexander is sooooo professional and such a stan, to not give her the time would be insulting to say the least 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
