Janet in the Pleasure Principle video. It was at that moment she became my first crush




Beyonce' is a decent performer, but she's a vocal powerhouse. Janet is a decent singer, but a great dancer. Beyonce' performances never really did it for me, basic moves, a little ass shaking here and there. Her production is more so the show rather than her actual performance
Nikkas is trippin.
MJ is the only entertainer that comes before Beyonce in music history.

I have to apologize to Ms. Jackson because a few threads ago, I said Mariah and Brandy kinda had the 90's on lock when it came to success. I forgot about Janet. The numbers this woman was doing were crazy.
The Control album had 7 singles and 5 of those were top 5 hits on the Hot 100 Billboard. That shyt is crazy.
Rhythm Nation had 8 singles. 7 of those were top 5 hits on the Hot 100 Billboard. And 4 of which were all #1's. Thats MJ/Mariah numbers breh. Unbelievable chart success.
The Janet album had 8 singles and 6 of those were top 10 hits with 2 of em being #1's.
We talk about Mariahs 1st 3 albums and Toni's 1st 3 albums being great runs but Janet may have eclipsed them all cause her 1st 3 are classics too. And it ain't just no pop shyt either. She was killing that R&B wave too. Anytime Anyplace, I Get Lonely, The Way Love Goes.
Those 3 albums were her prime. Untouchable GOAT shyt.
Then came back in 2001 with another #1 hit All For You.

I seee what your saying,its more the aesthetic,the wardrobes stage lights etc which I would agree with. But I would say in terms of actual dancing that Beyonce isn't on the level of say a Janet,Mya,Tinashe,Lil Mama but I could be wrong.

Breh lost me with that shytnikka what ?!!
Mya? Tinashe? Lil mama?
I remember my mom bought one of Janet's albums and was mad af cuz Janet was "Whisper singing"
My mom went off
Janet gets a 5 lol
