Janet Jackson

Damita Jo is one of my faves! The way that album flows is just immaculate. It’s so underrated and has such a strong concept.

"Put Your Hands On" deserved to be on the international version of the album:

And the album cover is IT

JeremySpears 100%! It's her best from the 2000s and my #3 in her discography overall. Like you said, the flow is the thing, I much prefer to listen to the whole album than jump to my favorite tracks. And a double-yes for "Put Your Hands On" such an amazing track, perhaps the sexiest song on the album

Britney's biggest son stans Janet like his mother
He even subscribed her official channel

Where do you see anything Preston related in this post ? I’ve been wondering actually... don’t see his name anywhere.

That's such a beautiful shot of her.

^^^After starting the 2 previous eras with slinky midtempos, it was good for her to start off the A4Y era with a straight up banger

Digital artist Liam Alexander has been reimagining albums as comic book covers for artists like Björk, Kate Bush and Madonna on his artofliamalxndr IG page. He is on Janet now and has done Control through All For You, with Damita Jo dropping very soon. They are all excellent but my fave so far is The Velvet Rope

The 100 Greatest Songs of 2001: Staff Picks

21. Janet Jackson, "All For You" (No. 1, Hot 100)

This glimmering dance-pop track, produced by Jackson along with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, arrived not only as a certified hit (it climbed to No. 1 on the Hot 100), but also a can't-miss rulebook for flirting. “Don't try to be all clever, cute, or even sly/ Don't have to work that hard/ Just be yourself and let that be your guide,” Jackson instructs over a rapturous post-disco groove, lifted from Change's "The Glow of Love." It’s a tried-and-true lyrical format that still reigns today (see: Dua Lipa’s “New Rules”) and will surely continue for years to come because let’s face it, everyone could use a little help in that area -- and even more so after a year of isolation. -- LYNDSEY HAVENS

as big as AFY was in America at the time, I think that's a rather low ranking for the song

Agreed. The song was an unstoppable monster smash that should've ranked higher

The 50 Best Deep Cuts of 2001: Staff List

40. Janet Jackson, "When We Oooo" (All For You)

Like Minnie Riperton's "Lovin' You" without the climactic high note, the intimacy is so heavy on Janet Jackson's finest All For You seduction that she lacks the vocabulary to properly express it. It's always persuasive coming from Janet's breathy, smiling sing-sigh, but the sound of "When We Oooo" that really sticks with you comes from the metallic production -- also courtesy of Ms. Jackson, along with longtime creative soulmates Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis -- which sounds like bedsprings squeaking on an alien spaceship. -- A.U.

One of her finest songs tbh

[NormiMalone]

Always loved how dreamy "When We Ooo" sounds

[JeremySpears]
