Legendary, iconic, culturally significant, trendsetting. What y’all don’t understand is that this single and video gave birth to EVERY black female pop star today (including Beyoncé) The choreography was and still is so precise and complex, a lesser dancer would to shamed if taken to task (even Michael was shook during the RN era) Everything said in this song is still relevant in today’s social climate more so than ever. Janet’s influence has stood the test of time. To this day nobody can replicate a concept album as groundbreaking as Rhythm Nation 1814. Beyoncé tried with Lemonade/Formation but missed the mark by a wide margin.
