Janet Jackson general (2021/2) (5 Viewers)

Not as a solo artist, but yes he was creating music with his family. This one though...she's annoying me now. We've all been here before and I'm conscious that we all have different levels of appreciation for her, for her legacy, her influence etc. etc. but she's doing herself no favours with this talk of "new-music". As you've said - just say what it actually is - it's a money-making tour of the market where she sold the most and can expect the most reasonable returns on ticket sales.

No thread for this album? Honestly, that feels about right. I’ve always thought it was pretty middle-of-the-road, especially as a follow-up to The Velvet Rope.



Wasn’t this around the time she leaned a bit too heavily into singing about her privates? More power to her for that, but it would’ve landed better if the songs themselves were stronger
