Amy Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I don't think this has been posted yet Janet Jackson will receive the rock star award at the 2018 Black Girls Rock awards. The Grammy winner will be honored as a "phenomenal woman in music," organizers said Thursday. Jackson recently released "Made For Now," her single with Daddy Yankee. Queen Latifah will host the show, which will be taped Sunday at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark. BET Networks will air the special celebrating the accomplishments of black women on Sept. 9. Other award recipients include Mary J. Blige, Naomi Campbell and Judith Jamison. Blige will receive the star power award. Campbell will be presented with the black girl magic award and Jamison will receive the living legend award for her work in dance and choreography.

wayneashleymusic Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Those racist-ass, old-ass voters in RRHOF have never and will never hear of Black Girls Rock. But we, her fans love it and by convincing us and the general public, I think her team hopes to put some major pressure on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, it makes absolutely no sense that she hasn’t been inducted yet!!! Since the “Unbreakable” era, she should have been inducted immediately!!! Her vast accomplishments, artistic acheievements and immense contributions to pop music the past 4 decades can’t be denied anymore! It’s simply ridiculous!

Amy Posted August 25, 2018 Author Share Posted August 25, 2018 I truly feel that this could be her year. If she doesn’t get a nomination this year then the fans will truly be up in arms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can honestly say the fans have been up in arms for years, I believe thats what got her nominated in the first place.

The R&R Hall of Fame plays to bands mostly, and fringe acts, Janet Jackson is seen as a pop act, who dances and is also a female. I dont think those attributes play in her favor in the voting committees minds I wish it was about seeing the impact Janet has had, but they down play that and say its not about numbers, which to me is BS too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laveaux Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Janet Jackson will get inducted into the RRHF as soon as her fans stop calling her the Empress of Pop....honestly who came up with that asinine title. it's fucking cringe worthy.

She's making all of the right PR moves, and keeping her name out there right up until nominations. Which is what I said she should/would have to do like two or three years ago, and ppl on here admonished me for it. I believe if she keeps the momentum going, I think she'll get inducted this year. At which point, I will make it about me because I said she should do this years ago. Thus stroking my ego and reaffirming my position as dominate male of the pride.

Bailey Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I think what is missing from the campaign is recognition from serious journalism news outlets, like how about a piece on her career in "Time" or how about a sit down interview with NPR, these are outlets that are seen as serious not made up and will give her even more legitimacy which is what the campaign is about. Okay I said something so let's wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
