    those Madonna fans need to stop fuckin' with Janet's wikipedia page and put the "janet." album back at 20 million instead of 14 which they switched it to. Hating asses!

    Yep it is a known fact that album has sold 20 million

    I think she is trying to promote a more production-driven show that appeals more to the GP. And it helps that she has the festivals to drive sales. Otherwise, I don't me much of a point doing more US shows, especially some that didn't do so great.

     

    But most of the shows did great she was able to sell out most  of her dates without promo and music and that’s good she just needs to promote more I think the festival idea is perfect for her and I can’t wait it will become a bigger success 

    Bigger Era & Why: TVR v. AFY

    As a lasting impact to her relevancy, AFY is the bigger era imo. While TVR may arguably have the better music, AFY was Janet’s proof that she can hang with the 21st Century. 

    AFY came strong with a new movie, three hit tracks, outselling all of her siblings for the first time, and a messy divorce.. Janet’s AFY era was the end all

    While TVR had its successes, AFY imo stands taller. 

    In my opinion  i think all for you not because its the only era i lived through but like you said it showed that janet can still hang but i do think TVR is more timeless

    I can dig that, that's what I like about your other thread of conversation, this  one though, I get it you want to hear from the ones that experienced it in real time and from their perspectives, but with this comparison, what I've gotten in my experience back when I was new to being a fan and mingling with others, is the answers to that question really presents itself in a obvious type of way. Control was huge, but RN was a complete domination in like every way. The question of which we like better & why might be more helpful than "which was bigger" because our opinions can & do differ on which we'd choose maybe, but  in terms of which was bigger it's only 1

    .......I get that you're new to this....but I swear if you just look up some of her stats & facts, or watch some of her biographic specials through the years, the answer to the question is obvious in a way that this question feels (maybe it's just me) a little...dense. And that's just because it's REALLY easy to see when you look at her information & story. RN lasted successfully through 3 calendar years while control lasted 2, RN had 4 #1s (still the only artist to have 3 #1's from 1 album 3 different years) & Control had 1, RN was her debut tour and holds the record 29yrs later for being the most successful debut tour. That's when her reference in TV shows & movies really started, her influence in fashion was more obvious, tons more awards, tons of respect... 

    Here is a good start so is her icon special & her E! True Hollywood story (but good luck finding that online). Her Driven biography special is the BEST for going in depth about her childhood and school issues and all the pre-Rhythm Nation stuff, it's 1 of my favorites but it stops at her 1987 Grammy performance...because they speant so much time giving depth about her childhood, so I wish they had another hour to go more in depth, but for what it is it's great for learning about her challenges before her success. Plus a shit ton of RARE (never before or sense fully released)  pics & footage throughout her life

     

    Thanks jerry   I know I can watch documentaries and stuff I just want y’all opinions that’s it

    i would also recommend watching Janet interviews on YT and some of her specials there is a lot there

    Ok so i got done watching her specials like mtv icon and lifetime achievement awards this is why im such a stan for her because she achieved so much at a young age by the early 90s mtv gave her a video vanguard award and i watched a video of janet sweeping the billboard awards im like OMG i never seen a artist other than Michael Jackson and whitney  sweep a awards like that people were giving standing ovation when she walked across that stage than i think it was 1997 they gave her tribute and she was still in her peak thank you so much and to see people like britney and beyonce and countless others give a other tribute to her
