I love how most people are taking this question so serious and are like "No, it's still Summer" (), while it's OBVIOUS she's hinting a winter release of Black Diamond...

Don’t get our hopes up, this has been a terrible year already!!! Lol

Thanks, I had no clue where it was lol. The fact that she has #1 albums in 4 decades...just amazing. TRUE longevity there 

“Black Diamond” NEEDS to b her 8th #1 and make that 5 consecutive decades (80s-2020s)

YAAASSSSSSSS!!!

As someone who JUST got out of the hospital from battling Covid and her respiratory demons for almost a month.....fuck a tour! I'm here to tell you, take this shit seriously.

Its already getting worse. And don't take breathing for granted ever again. I can barely walk to the kitchen without getting winded....I was 6'1, 175-180.....now I'm 6'1 140...shit ain't cute yall. 

Worse part is that I have an appetite BUT my taste buds are fucked because of the medicine I'm on. #miserable A bitch really want a lemon pepper wing.

But seriously....

Stay safe!

 

 

 

Omg!!! I’m so sorry to hear that boo!!! Just glad ur one of the survivors!!! This year has been terrifying but hang in there.

Omg!!! Can’t stop listening to this album!!! The only problem is it runs a little too long!!! But man, but this is damn near a modern classic in R&B and artistry. 
 

My Top 10:

1. Wake Up Love

2. Bare Wit Me

3. Come Back to Me

4. Boomin

5. LowKey

6. Try Again

7. Made It

8. Shoot It Up

9. Killa

10. Bad (TOOO DAMN SHORT!!! )

I just wonder if the album will be reworked to reflect all the current events with 2020. I'm here for a RN meets Velvet Rope album

I can see Janet doing a special deluxe version with songs inspired by this year and releasing it at fall 2020 or early 2021!

I would be sooo happy if she is still releasing this year. Tour next year. Makes sense. 

I hope so too. Fingers crossed but no hopes right now!!!

I don’t like it either!!! For a black pride song during the greatest worldwide civil rights movement in history....very basic and kinda flat!!! Damn, might as well have re-released Formation with some new remixes and visuals aka Formation 2020!!!

It's called "The Album"?  

Yup!!! No shade please!

Omg!!! Guys, this is EXACTLY what I needed since Black Diamond is on an indefinite hold!!!  “THE ALBUM” is......WOW!!! Pure Artistry!!! Pure R&B!!!
 

Listen to this album, it really is THE ALBUM!!!

Well regardless we know she’ll be releasing said album n tour in the near future. It’s just up to her n her team to find out what’s the best play to roll things out now. But racial tension is STILL too heavy and the corona virus seems to go away n come back worse again out of no where. Jesus!!!

Got my cancellation notification today. Totally understand why. I hope she puts out a statement though. 

I know. Sigh. Era that never was..... But there’s too much going on in the world right now!!! Save it for 2021....if we’re still here by then!!! Sheesh!!!

You're not selfish, you just want Janet to release music and so do I. I also want the promotion to be GOOD and I want music videos AND the world tour. Taking this all into consideration, it would be best for her to not release the album now but like around Christmas or early next year. 

We've already waited 4+ years for Unbreakable's follow up, we can wait another year. In the mean time, I enjoy myself by listening to the new Lady Gaga album.

Ur right n yassss Chromatica is awesome!!!

U need to calm the hell down. Let the roll out happen when it does. They are waiting for the coast to clear. Stop anticipating and juss think logically....it will probably release towards the end of the year or the top of next.Yall always talk about yall want Janet to WIN but yall want her to release shit in the middle of all this mess? That makes no sense.  No sir, too many distractions. Ppl worried about how they gone feed their family next week not about no damn albums. We need to look at priorities here.   Chill da hell out. Let the dust settle. The album is coming. The world is not ending no time soon i dont think.

I’m sorry daddy!!!

So despite the pandemic, Many artists have managed to release new music and videos between March and this month. Missy, Brandy, Kelly, Gaga/Ari, Teyana Taylor, etc. Makes me just more eager to hear Janet’s new music. Yes, the tour is postponed for reasons out of her control but that doesn’t mean the music should be grind to a silent halt. I’m just wondering why her n her team are being so silent about the whole era. Mind you it was Ticketmaster that had to tell us the album was postponed, NOT janet herself. I don’t want to sound Unappreciative and spoiled as a fan but Janet was seriously gearing up for a HUGE era like most artists this year and the silence is just bugging me now. Something’s up n I wish she’d be like “Hey guys!!! Unfortunately the Black Diamond era will be put on hold for obvious global health reasons but thank you for all your love and support. We’re still in this together...again!” Something!!!! Meh!! Give us snippets, album details, teasers like before. The hype is dead now n she’s gonna have to work even harder to ramp up people’s excitement over her next project again. Idk...am I asking too much???

“Bare Wit Me”
A heavily Micheal influenced video but the song itself goes hard with that old school R&B. Feelin’ the hell out of it. 
 

Second single, “Made It” and video.

New album out next month!!! Whatchu think so far??

But what about the album?!?

Black Diamond World Tour has officially been postponed. No new dates just yet. Hopefully the album will still be out later this year

Where’d u here this?!?

Ok, if that’s the case, release the album as a major surprise on her birthday and begin shooting a video for the first single this summer when things are safer. Move the tour until October 2020 or February 2021 because there is absolutely NO way Janet is making this small scale. The Black Diamond era needs to recommence in a big way and sustain momentum with a tour that is up to her classic theatrics and spectacle!!!

For me, if its true ...we have seen tons of shit that has showed her rise to superstardom.. I would want that aspect of her life to be secondary..and what should be primary is the obstacles and struggles that only US fans know about. Casual Janet fans and non Janet fans dont know this woman was hopping in her car in the middle of the night to go search for her drug addict husband in dangerous areas who would call her to come try to find him cus he's not even coherent enough to kno where he is. Stuff like that would REALLY make a story cus the common person looks at Janet as a beautiful woman who was lucky enough to be born into fame  with a silver spoon in her mouth. Alot of ppl dont know stuff like Janet being on tour and needing emergency eye surgery becus she scraped her cornea with a magazine and after her surgery she was in her hotel room suffering and crying through the night of healing while her husband (Rene) was nowhere to be found.  I think stuff like this would show how common and relatable her life is despite her name being in bright lights. 

I didn’t know all that!!! My god!!!
