Dal Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 So glad she’s doing FSR now but I think if she’s ever on stage alone for an entire song with no specific choreography she should have a handheld mic instead 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted July 10, 2018 Author Share Posted July 10, 2018 I feel like some of these songs on her set list are “filler” (at least I hope) where she’ll add to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dal Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I love that she just completely took out most of the same ballads she’s always done (LWAW, Again, CBTM) and added a shit ton of lesser-known songs, especially the true fan favs.. but ill say it again and every chance I get: having Skin Game as the opening song makes it the WORST. INTRO. EVER! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I was thinking today, and I realize if Janet aimed to make everyone happy she would get nothing done. BUT she did stick to fan favs and gave us songs we know and enjoy but havent heard live 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted July 10, 2018 Author Share Posted July 10, 2018 Yes you’ve said that already. We get it Janet added it bc it’s the State of the World... and the Skin Game is STILL around She didn’t add it bc it’s popular amongst the stans... she was CLEARLY sending a message. If you don’t get it then that’s fine and you don’t have to like it but most Americans don’t like truth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LawdToday Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I want IF in full why did that fool stop recording right before the breakdown PLS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarrylf Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I wish she or Jam&Lewis would do a new remix of Skin Game, her vocals are everything if you heard the acapella version (I have it but cant find it and its not on youtube anymore) , but the only problem I have ever had with the song is its production is WAY too heavy & too much period, its obvious Jam & Lewis were deep in their zone, but they drown out some really great vocals & lyrics Janet gives with having SUCH a loud, heavy & busy beat. I think it would actually make a amazing breakdown in like one of the socially conscious songs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love her crisp vocals. So clear and clean. I always knew she loved that song especially when I found out it was originally supposed to be the song for the nutty professor movie instead of doesn't really matter. That's probably went she went right into DRM after feels so right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreelovesJJ Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I think Skin Game is an ok opener it’s just not a fan favorite song, although I love it for many reasons, Skin Game is a good opener because it does multiple things: shows how long she’s been making conscious music reminds of conscious music beyond RN Speaks to very real circumstances happening right now speaks for & to a community often ignored Maybe she could have kept The Knowledge & then put Skin Game in after but I LOVE she’s changing the whole scope. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dal Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Skin Game is the lamest opener she’s ever had...period... hopefully her intro to the stage improves tonight, I’m sure the crowd will be better than that dead ass crowd at Essence 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
