It wasn't a vote! Unbreakable must go!

We know her bday is in about a month something will be emerging soon.

Nah I'm truly betting if she hits the road again Europe will be touched.

It definitely was the announcement lol in all fairness to Janet though, the only reason why people know & anticipated an announcement is because fans DEEPLY follow/monitor her team members. Janet herself didn't play up a big announcement & then delivered this - this time. BUT we all know music & performances are definitely coming. She's put a new team in place, she is keep her social media engagement consistent & current, she's also doing performance dates. So we'll see when that hits. Question: is the song playing in the background a recognized remix by anyone or is it new?

On the chorus yes, but the verses - are just ok.

It was shortly after Velvet Rope because she had already sampled Big Yellow Taxi. So your years are right. Na. No one should know about this.

That song was from the project where artist were remaking Joni Mitchell songs but Janet's version never saw the light of day! This is why. It's awful.

The percussion boom on UB tour could have worked for SOTW. Agreed. But, besides the Bruno show I haven't seen pyro be a heavy staple in many shows lately. Then again most big budget artists have done them in their past so maybe they've moved on. I just see where visuals have dominated - like huge screens and major video themes etc. I hope she finds away to be innovative with her performances, specifically visuals or staging, but I also get that her touring costs are different then the past. Set list though - they can stay in the groove of SOTW tour. Keep blending in rarely performed hits - it's a better reminder of the epic ness of her career. Throw in FHTF, Go Deep, I Want You & just keep the crowd realizing - damn I forgot Janet sang that!

I can fully agree. I'll even say I stand corrected but that budget is MUUUUCH larger than what Janet has. Much larger.

I can kinda see where you're coming from with the pictures of her, but that opening was epic! But as far as pyro, it can be a bit expensive & it's something she's probably won't really do anymore. Never say never, but unlikely. Also arguably, pyro isn't as epic as it used to be unless on HUGE stadium stages or outdoors. Now the wave of performance is more so visuals. I think she did the best with visuals SOTW tour than she's done - idk MAYBE ever. I think the announcement will be something about the festivals & a stay tuned for new music. New music is coming very soon.

Lmao! No she hasn't. You AT BEST would get a nasty breakdown with a current beat & thats about where it would end.

It's just not as feasible to have dvds made and pressed up anymore. People stream now. Hopefully it's some content but what we do know is music is coming. Soon too like really soon.

Unbreakable.

The NFL has allowance in who they let perform, Justin coming back when he did should not have been allowed.

Take Me Away this shit was supposed to been gone

Her doing super bowl IF it's her by herself, idk it just gives me VERY bad vibes. Honestly they let Justin back in the midst of a racially charged year & they had done her so wrong. They tried to crucify her. They don't deserve her to do business with them.

Yea if she gets a crowd of nearly 60K & kills it she can get that cultural time stamp she deserves but I think the performance & music has to really POP and be engaging & memorable. SOTW tour was amazing! It was also heavily a fan's tour which it SHOULD be but these festivals ESPECIALLY with her headlining - she has to grasp with performance & visuals. Simply because this is a very visual driven era of concert goers.

A lot of those songs are really good songs but they're so heavily altered & fixed that they just don't count to me. I'm thinking of songs Janet can just sit & sing. Things she wouldn't need something to back her or alter her. Those songs are chants mostly.

Trust A Try & You are great songs but that choppy chant Janet should have ended with IF. Those songs are also very highly produced with vocal effects. Now TGF, Like U Don't Love Me & UB maybe not but I just think those vocals is what discredits her as a singer. The attitudey thing is played unless it's done like Lemon with swag & kinda rapish but it discredits her abilities to me.

TAKE ME AWAY!

They are definitely in the same category. That's like saying she isn't singing because of the chorus it's more harmony. In YWT it's a crescendo within the bridge into the choruses - "Not anyone I'll just let in my heart you have to be hungry for me." "Girls may have been easy boy you have to please me" "what makes me think that I can say this to you, I know how bad you want this." "one thing I've been told nothing else compares to this loving body"

Give me an example of rustic Janet vocals so I know what you mean. ?????? Yes I think so too. I just prefer Janet when she's actually singing. That's one of the things that highlights her older catalog so much. IGL, FHTF, Anytime Anyplace, You Want This, Because of Love, Escapade, LWNDWY, AFY, the bridge of Someone to Call My Love, Doesn't Really Matter, Island Life etc.

Yea Janet shines in her higher & falsetto notes. The others come off choppy & often inaudible. Her better performances are Dream Maker, No Sleeep bridge, Unbreakable chorus, Night, 2 B Loved the tracks where it sounds more singing than speaky or choppy. Edit: to be fair I'll even say TMA chorus isn't bad either. I just don't like the choppy verses.
