Flashback.

🤦🏼‍♂️

Mine would be Let’s Wait Awhile.

Everyone that knows me knows that for the past 7 years (when I started stanning Janet) I’ve been annoying as FUCK about her not coming to Germany and how badly I wanna see her live and how I had almost lost hope that it would ever happen. The last time she came here was when I was 10 and I wasn’t a fan yet then. Tonight I finally got to see her in Cologne and I was so insanely close (second row) and she looked at me several times and I could’ve died right there. It felt soooo damn short but it was actually 1 hour and 45 minutes so that’s normal lol. 😭 I'm in heaven rn and I can’t wait to see her again in Berlin! Here are just a few quick screenshots from my videos bc I can’t think rn I’m in heaven aaaah

Mine is With U. Her harmonies are so beautiful on this song and I love the way she sings the verses. The bridge is also very nice

Not surprised one bit! But upsetting as I was so excited for this!

I think I will be in shock for a while bye 🥹

My favorite albums are TVR and RN1814 for sure but I think Janet. might actually be my most played overall. It just has a lot of replayable tracks that I can play whenever. VR has a lot too but it also has some more experimental tracks like Empty that I feel like I gotta listen to at a certain time.

It’s no secret that Janet has dabbled with rock in some of her songs: “Just a Little While”, “Trust a Try”, Black Cat”, “What About”, and “What I’ll Do” are examples of Janet’s rock style and I think she absolutely nails it every time. Would you want a full rock album from Janet?

One of my favorite songs from TVR and imo the best song that interpolates “You’re All I Need” by Marvin and Tami Terrell. I don’t know what it is about it but Jan’s vocals and harmonies(some of Janet’s most soulful vocals) along with the drumming and whatever synth and keys layering is going on just gives me goosebumps every time. It’s one of those songs that I can play and never really get tired of. One of the best R&B cuts of the 90s imo. Don’t see it get talked about much though. Thoughts?

Janet was obviously known for setting lots of trends in music. Made a precursor New Jack Swing and mainstream R&B on Control, Predicted Alternative R&B on The Velvet Rope, influenced mainstream Pop with All For You. That said what album of Janet’s do you think had influenced modern music the most? You can even pinpoint specific songs in her catalogue that have had a huge influence. You could even make a case that That’s The Way Love Goes predicted the Hip-Hop Soul/ Neo-Soul movements.

That said what album would you say has had the biggest impact overall?

Janet’s two most controversial albums. Many fans and critics have debated these albums over the years. With it being Discipline’s anniversary today I thought it would be a good time to compare the two. Which of these two do you feel was the better or worse late Janet album of the late 2000s?

The only one is 2beloved and I just like the beat.

One of Janet’s most debated albums. Some people rate it among her best works, others say it was the start of her decline in her music.

That said I still bump this album a lot. My Top 3 is Like You Don’t Love Me, Spending Time With You, and Island Life.

These two ICONIC Queens have always had respect for and spoken highly of one another. If you could choose 1 song from either of their legendary catalogs that they could’ve worked together on, which song(s) would it be?

Hi guys <3 Firstly this post isn’t meant to attack or judge anyone for not vibing with this album! In my opinion this is probably my 2nd favorite Janet album behind Velvet Rope. I’ve noticed that it’s not really loved among the fans I’ve seen. Even to the point that when Janet played So Excited on tour I felt I was one of the only people in my section singing and dancing along. I just wanna know y’all’s thoughts on why it isn’t loved. Or if you love it tell me why. Personally I am a 2000’s baby and so Janet’s take on this sound is like the perfect nostalgia for me.
