    why would anybody shade eissa? he's a damn baby. janet cussing has nothing to do with mike's kids, she barely knew them. those kids acts just like their trailer trash mother debbie rowe. if mike cursed alot he did it privately, i have never heard that man curse and i was a fan since the 70s.

    Ummmmm weird to respond specifically to expecting someone to shade Eissa…I’m going to chalk the response up to misinterpretation of reading comprehension.

  2. I think Skin Game is an ok opener it’s just not a fan favorite song, although I love it for many reasons, Skin Game is a good opener because it does multiple things:

    shows how long she’s been making conscious music

    reminds of conscious music beyond RN

    Speaks to very real circumstances happening right now 

    speaks for & to a community often ignored

    Maybe she could have kept The Knowledge & then put Skin Game in after but I LOVE she’s changing the whole scope.

  3. I’ve always liked Skin Game because it has these hidden lyrics of her reciting famous revolutionaries under the beat. She says Marcus Garvey & Huey Newton…I have much respect for that. I’m very eager to see what the ballads will be. And surprised she hasn’t started doing some of the new stuff. 

    Essence could have been a perfect crowd for some of that & a roll out.

    They could have gotten this from the people they hang with. Remember the Jackson's didn't grow up cussing. Jimmy said back in the day that Janet would be shocked every time they would cuss around her. John Singleton also said that Janet couldn't cuss to save her life. He actually had to get the girls from the Hood to teach her how to cuss because she sounded funny cussing. Janet learned to cuss from the people around her not from her family. 

    The point I was making is every time there’s a chance to shade MJ or any family member besides Eissa, Game takes it. 

    As if MJ’s mouth was ever any worse than Janet. So the “kids” are not out of place & the shock of their mouth from Janet fans whoever the original was that noticed it - is either hypocritical or very short sided to forget the way Janet spoke for years. 

    Listen to an album pre Unbreakable. Listen to interviews with her around her friends. I’m just saying

    LaToya? Rebbie?! Jackie.. wait 

    More than likely their father since you know... he raised them and was a potty mouth as told by many people including himself 

    Janet didn’t raise them or was around them like he was for obvious reasons  

    The potty mouth must just run in the family because Janet too had one

  6. Dammn Baby was ok to me, I liked a few parts of it. I think the vocal alteration of it makes it a bit “eh” live but I do like it. 

    Her switching up the set list is probably the best move she’s made touring wise in years. I’d love to see her bring back FHTF - she’s done it on one tour & ignored it too long. 

    Ive always said she has classics & Staples she has to perform but she NEEDS to keep audiences guessing about what they’ll get from her long list of hits. She has too many songs to give the same set list.

    Ehh janet. was about “new love” (basically)... I get the theme she was going for.. it just wasn’t a good continuation of her career 

    Ex was beautiful and 100% needed to be on the album 

    That’s true 

    PS: I see what you did there with the insight :shifty: :wub: 

    No Janet was about womanhood, freedom, & discovery or emergence of sexuality. 

    DJ was about love & her finding it again after marriage that hurt her deeply & a love unlike those she’s been known for. By that time, Janet had become known for what she delivered on DJ - love songs. 

    Only thing she could have done at that time was fight back against what she was going through in a raw way. For whatever reason she didn’t.
