Ok...so I'm late to the party but nobody mentioned how the second season of 'Dear White People' is a homage to Janet.

Not only do they quote her lyrics (someone to call my lover), have Poetic Justice poster on the wall but somebody actually calls her 'Queen Janet'....and all of this happens throughout the season....I gagged. 

omg, sounds like Pose! The stans run entertainment eh?

They get to perform at the show right?!

If she does I hope she shows her ass and fucks that stage up....12 years of being eligible...I need her to have the blackest cat on that stage, 4 Black Panthers (the animal and members from the radical revolutionary group) and King T'Challa

I could see that, or the opposite, a totally stripped down/acoustic/live singing performance of one or two of her ballads.

I can't believe we did it guys dlajklenjvdm

I believe Jimmy and Terry are very outdated.

They're really not. Unbreakable has aged incredibly well imo and will remain fresher than her 2000s albums. Their sound may not be trendy or futuristic, but it's eclectic, thoughtful, detailed, and timeless. They have such a wide span of talents in the studio. 

Also, Damita Jo didn't have nothing to say because she worked with other producers. That was all her fault.  As long as she is invested in a project, it will be great, guys.

I would like to see her get back to cutting edge production. There's too much new talent out there for her to be working with Harmony Samuels. I know the writing, etc. will be there, because her pen game is strong.

I have a feeling she'll be working with some more interesting people because she seems to have made so many industry connections in the past few years.

Yellowtail and salmon sashimi, roasted cod, champagne risotto.

I'm not expecting anything, but ANY nod would be nice.

Looking happy/young but jet lagged af.

Looking 25 as always.

I love the song structure..it's so much going on..but it's brilliant.  Her "chanting"..the background vocals..the melody..the production(drum programming, guitars, THAT SAMPLE).

Janet, Jimmy, and Terry had time that day.

 

 

It truly is something special. The way she interpolates the lyrics, the structure of how she sings. It's SO weird and unique for a pop song, and it's so visceral when you figure out the lyrics.

I don't know why most ppl are cumming all over this album. I like it but it's pretty one note and it also feels like a Memoirs 2.0 with less "ratchet" production/lyrics. 

With that said, 8th grade when carcass used to be popular is my fav along with The Distance from hot 100 . It's solid but nothing to write home about. 

I agree, it's definitely been overpraised. I just think people aren't used to such a tight, short Mimi album. nn @ the distance shade.

well I would think around the holidays her presence will boost due to her Christmas music being so ubiquitous during the season. So let me ask this, I'm assuming you have heard the entire album, you tell me what you loved hearing and I'll give it a listen  

Have you heard any of the singles? If not try GTFO and The Distance. If you like those get into 8th Grade and Stay Long Love You.

The Gutter “revival” was a #1 on iTunes during a slow week. It’s not impressive at all. It becoming #1 for a day can be equivalent to 500-2k figures. Not good

Caution isn’t a good album and has zero hits.. the promo tour won’t matter (ask Madonna). I don’t see it surpassing 50k first week of physical sales

A 17 year old album selling 3K is still a 17yo album selling 3K. That's how much a lot of albums in the top 10 sell (pure sales) these days. Nothing to sneeze at. 

Put the haterade down. We don't care about hits anymore after nearly three decades in the industry; she hasn't had a legitimate pop hit since 2009. It's a really solid, concise album that moves her sound forward significantly.

lmao WHY

She better be getting at least $500K for this

She opened at #3 with her last.. album with 60k actual sales. This album will be far less

But then She also discounted this album. It’s $7.99

I think she could actually do better this time. The goodwill and hype are much better for her rn. I mean, you saw the Gltiter revival. I'm not sure how much that will translate here, but the album is really good so word of mouth could carry it far.

Stay Long Love You is that BOP.

It leaked. I haven't listened yet, but it's out there.

Night

Enjoy

Empty

I would love for her to have a more fleshed out ballads section. Instead of all of it being on a stool or chair, I'd love to see her do some slower songs standing up, and in a classy outfit, with the backing band / singers visible with her.

Not counting Nightmare on Elm Street, I assume:

The 1

Dream Maker / Euphoria

Greatest X

Cute!

Truth is that while her team is still promoting MFN Janet is finishing the EP/album. It's a matter of time til there will be an official announcement.

And around the same time the international leg will be announced. Outside Organisation is already working on the European tour, so.

Okay but at that point they shouldn't even call it SOTW anymore. In a perfect world, she'll put out the new album early next year and announce a 2019 tour starting in Europe/Asia along with it.

ouch.....I think the situation is more complicated, she already messed up with Europe, fixing that situation is NOT going to be easy, and considering how Live Nation said she was being very ambitious about Europe, I read one analysis that said why so many dates ?during Unbreakable, she had stops planned she never did before. Janet cannot tour Europe and sell out, she just isnt there, she can accept doing select small venues

I don't see why she wouldn't do theaters in Europe. It's not like SOTW has some huge production that would be too big or expensive for a smaller stage. Hell, even Kylie did some music halls and theaters in Europe this year. The longer Janet waits, the more her touring power wanes, but it's good to see her at least getting her name out there with some promo.
