Can we get into how genius it was to use Rhythm Nation--which became it's own well established brand that IMMEDIATELY makes you think of Janet Jackson? Savvy marketing there.

"Together Again." I know that's considered one of her greatest songs and it is for such a great cause, but I routinely skip it when it comes up on my smartphone. I find it a little trite. I do, however, really, really, really like the slow-jam remix of it.

LOL! Although, it has "Empty" on it, so it's valid again. LOL!

Brandy. Solange.

I can't explain it, but I'm getting all of my life from these 18 seconds. To hear Janet's voice raw like that....

With Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Janet Jackson has created some of modern R&B’s most enduring music. Here’s the best of it. http://www.theguardian.com/music/musicblog/2015/jun/03/janet-jackson-10-of-the-best?CMP=share_btn_fb

Yaaaaas, Janet!

It's Janet, Jimmy, and Terry. That's something some of us have been waiting for for a good long while. I ain't criticizing shit. Shoot. I'm HUNGRY for the classic soul-inflected pop/R&B they cooked up.

So much shade. LOL! But she is actually an author. Her book, Sexy Part of the Bible, is really, really good.

I'll ask her. She told me that the version she hear was still being mixed, but that it was a sexy mid tempo banger that e predicts will be as hot as "That's The Way Love Goes" was.

EMPTY above all others!

"Taye Diggs dabbled in male prostitution and cross-dressing during his high school days -- OR you're about to see Taye yank a photog's chain really hard ... either way, this clip is awesome." - TMZ

Oh! SO sorry. I must have missed it.

Thank you! That's quite an interview, clocking in at over three hours. I couldn't find the Aaliyah part, though.

Not bad for a group of nine year olds!

I really like this!

Last movie I saw in the theaters was SELMA.

Yasssssssss!

So what does a “successful” Janet Jackson comeback mean? Battling the Beyoncés and Taylor Swifts of the world for pop supremacy? None of that matters. None of that is necessary. A successful Janet Jackson comeback simply means that one of the greatest artists of the last 30 years is back to doing what she loves and what her fans love seeing her do. Delivering a compelling album and an electrifying tour is all that matters, not sales or Grammys. She’s done all of that time and again. It’s past time to recognize that Janet Jackson is among the artists at the very top of popular music’s hierarchy. It’s past time to give her the respect she deserves. She doesn’t have to prove she’s still “hot” or “relevant.” She’s a legend. She should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. She should be as heralded as Tina Turner. This return isn’t about her “proving” anything to us. She’s doing this for her. And that’s good enough. With all the great music she’s given the world, she’s more than earned that right. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/05/21/janet-jackson-deserves-our-respect-the-pop-diva-puts-the-rihannas-of-the-world-to-shame.html?source=twitter_page&utm_campaign=trueAnthem%3A+Trending+Content&utm_content=555daebe04d3015078000001&utm_medium=trueAnthem&utm_source=twitter&via=twitter_page
