I really hope the estate takes legal action. MJ's nephews appear to be trying to do something though.

^^ Does the link not show up for you or something? It is for me and Shemar quotes her at the beginning

I think I prefer this to the original slightly. You can hear her better on this version and I LOVE the keyboards

Hate to keep replying but this is another interesting video on the 2005 trial. It's a reading of an article:

You know what else is interesting? I glanced at the PDF files the day Radar released them. The total amount of pages was 88. Now, I haven't been back to the site since, but I've heard from other MJ fans that they took down the PDF files and then put them back up. When they did, it was 27 pages shorter. I believe the person I read this from is named '@sanemjfan' on Twitter

Who gave Me, Myself, and I a 3?! Game, was that you? I'm happy that Maroon 5's "This God" made the top 10. It's such a great track.

I saw a clip of it on Twitter and I don't want to see the rest. It was so unnecessary for him to have everyone in bed together. It's all kinda pretentious if you ask me. Just release your song and go. If you're already popular and it's at least a decent track, you should do well enough.

I'm surprised we missed this one. Shemar Moore quoted Janet in a Facebook post. Her impact is never-ending!

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/ottawa-artist-photo-michael-jackson-1.3651598?cmp=rss A new article regarding this just released. An artist has completely debunked the story. Radar must have added his photo to the PDF files in order to make the story even more salacious. Honestly, the whole thing is ridiculous

If she does go back to acting, I'd hope it'd be for a completely different type of movie. I remember on the Seacrest Show in 04 she said she wanted to do an action movie. At her age though, I think it's now too late for her to get a leading role in an action movie . I don't think she'll ever do a movie as one of the lead roles again tbh. It's kind of a shame. While I'm happy Janet chose to do the VR tour over the Matrix movies (as the VR tour is Janet at her best), doing the Matrix probably would have helped her in the acting world.

You will not come for Anything! That's my favorite Janet song ever. China Love and When We Yawn are boring in comparison tbh

Very interesting. I thought the song was kinda forgettable to be honest. I'm surprised she signed a hip-hop group and not someone who's pop/R&B like she is.

Very unfortunate. I'm still curious to know how his estate will handle everything with no will.

I agree that she looks too photoshopped in some of the pics but it's great to see Janet out! I could see this photo becoming a meme online with stans to some extent.

I still bop to Daybreak from time to time. I guess I'm one of the few. lol. I do agree with everyone's thoughts on the 20YO album overall. Not a great way to celebrate the 20 year anniversary of your breakthrough album.

Oh gosh. "4 Words" (literally) and she had a co-writer for that, if I remember correctly. She really phoned that album in. I kind of liked the choreo for "So Excited" but that was about it. The song is a complete whisper (like most of the 20YO album) and Khia... I mean, the public still doesn't know who the hell she is, really. I noticed that she started working with a few generic rappers (Khia and Chingy) during that time Why doesn't "Daybreak" get a lot of love? I actually really loved that song. I think it would have been a better single than So Excited or Call on Me. In the back of my mind I feel like that could have been Escapade's younger (less successful) sibling.

Moist is cringe-worthy at times, but it's kinda funny whenever I listen to it because of the cringe. Warmth is just a bore to listen to along with being somewhat cringe-worthy IMO.

"Anything" is probably my favorite Janet song ever! It always takes me to a special place; it makes me feel extremely relaxed. "My Need" is definitely in my top 10 favorite Janet songs. The note at the end was also a nice studio vocal IMO.

The boots from "Feedback" were a bit nicer, if I remember right

So the majority of people think RN. That was one of mine, but I think Control would also be a good song to summarize her as an artist. That was one of his mistakes. Thriller set the bar very high early on in his career and it would be almost impossible for him to top its sales. I remember reading in his autobio that he wanted Bad to sell ~100 million. I love MJ and his music, but yeah, he could have done more things completely out of his comfort zone in terms of song and dance.

(I don't think a thread like this has been made before) Imagine that we're 100 years into the future and someone has never heard a Janet song. They can only listen to one of her songs. Which song do you think best summarizes her legacy and artistry? What one song do you think would give that person the best glimpse of Janet?

I detect some shade...

^^^ First time listening to this guy. I liked both songs, especially the second! I wouldn't mind seeing this guy get more popular.

I think this is an OK example of her vocals. It's shaky at parts but I like her high notes close to the end.

Really? It was? I guess I'm not good at telling when she's using pre-recorded vocals, doing it live or a mix between the two. How much of Unbreakable do you think was live? I think the RN Tour had the most live vocals from her.
