  1. Again, Mariah has spoken highly about Janet on a number of occasions.
  2. Jimmy and Terry would be a great idea, but would be a little self-indulgent imo. Her own co-producers inducting her? Eh. YES. This is the part people aren't really understanding. Janet, someone correct me if I'm wrong, is the first of the 80s Black/R&B acts to get inducted. And the fact that she's female makes it more noteworthy. Also, this is the first time, I would think, the fans campaigning helped influence the Hall's decision. Fan bases are now using the "#Induct" hash tag for other artists.
  3. But not the 80s peak. Not to mention Janet's run in the 70s. Also, there's a level of significance with Janet's induction, so more consideration should be given. And even if they go with someone current, honestly someone like Beyoncé or Rihanna would've been better options imo.
  4. Absolutely. Mariah gave a speech about Whitney at the BET Awards. She's spoken highly about Janet on numerous occasions dating back to the early 2000s. Honestly, it should really be a peer imo. Someone who was there to witness Janet at her peak. Toni, MJB, hell even Celine. I have nothing against Janelle, but this is a momentous career milestone and everything should reflect that.
  5. My goodness there was no one else available? I think the inductor should be a peer, and/or someone who's on his or her way to being inducted themselves.
  6. Have to agree with you here. It just seems so anticlimactic. It should've been one of her peers like Mariah.
  7. Well ok. Never said it wouldn't happen. But, ok Janet.
  8. You don't know if that plaque means 9 million. Also, we have a credible source that confirmed sales of 7 million. Why go against that?
  9. It doesn't warrant a discussion. That plaque can be 9x platinum in Serbia. You don't know, and neither does JoeJoe's black ass.
  10. Yes, it is. We have a credible source, a press release from Janet's team, that says 7 million. Why argue with the credible source? AFY sold 7 million per Janet's team. And that's final.
  11. It's fabricating, and it's annoying. There's no need to inflate sales. It's 7 million. Janet's team confirmed it. Leave it at that.
  12. It's 7 million until Janet's team/label says otherwise. There's no need to fabricate or inflate.
  13. "ALL FOR YOU was Janet’s fifth consecutive album to debut at #1, with more than seven million in worldwide sales." https://www.janetjackson.com/news/live/janet-jacksons-greatest-hits-celebrated-on-number-ones#.XGxfYfrQjIU We are not about to do this today.
  14. Don't hold your breath. She's been asked this over the years, and has passive aggressively said no.
  15. While that may be true, but you can't erase history. But did I lie?
