Janet Jackson

Gil walked right past me but I didn’t bother acknowledging him. But I should have tried to get backstage passes

[spiritboy]

She never bothers to perform at Grammy Awards, why? It could've been a nice platform to launch a new single.

[hun]

Because she chose to perform in Tokyo instead

For his work on State of the World tour, Kyle Hamilton was awarded with the FOH Mixer of the Year award at the 2019 Parnelli Awards, the highest honor for live event professionals.




They had one more nomination for work on this tour as well for VUE Audiotechnik al-12 line arrays, used on this tour.

Wow I’ll watch that later

[hun]

Oh i thought it was gonna be the whole show

[CanYouKeepUp]

I’ve been listening to Alright more recently. It’s really grown on me.
On the flip side, Just A Little While came on my playlist the other day and it made me realise I always skip it. I just can’t seem to enjoy it, it’s a bit annoying. Whether it has anything to do with it being tainted following the Super Bowl I don’t know...but I never really liked the video either.

[RayRay]

I love Just A Little While. Should have been a hit.

Guys, what's the latest news on music? Will she release an album this year?

Fantastic Voyage to Celebrate 20 Years With Headliners Janet Jackson and Maxwell

The Tom Joyner Foundation Fantastic Voyage has announced that it will set sail this April with headliners Janet Jackson, Maxwell, Charlie Wilson and Fantasia.


The 20^th anniversary cruise will also feature performances from Sheila E., Biz Markie, WAR and MC Lyte.
"I'm proud of a lot of things we've accomplished on the Tom Joyner Morning Show, but I think I'm most proud of all the students we've helped stay in school for the last 20 years, and our biggest fundraiser for HBCUs [historically black colleges & universities] is the Fantastic Voyage cruise," said Tom Joyner in a release. "This year our lineup makes it all the more special -- Janet Jackson, Charlie Wilson, Maxwell and an endless list of performers!"


The "original party with a purpose" will take off from Miami on April 7 on the Carnival Magic and make stops in the Caribbean’s Amber Cove, San Juan and St. Thomas. Presented by Denny’s, the cruise will return on April 14 after a week of informative seminars, morning inspiration, fitness classes, notable celebrities, and popular theme nights.


This year, the Tom Joyner Foundation/Denny's Filmmaker's Scholarship Program will recognize six outstanding students from HBCUs who have produced a film about hunger in their communities. On behalf of Denny's, the Tom Joyner Foundation has awarded more than $550,000 in scholarships to deserving elementary, high school, and college students.


Joyner previously announced that he will leave his radio show on Dec. 31, but promises to continue the Fantastic Voyage and working with the foundation for years to come.

Thanks, looking forward to it. Hope it'll be as good as Unbreakable.

Only just heard And On and On and 70s Love Groove for the first time in my life :O

[hun]

Neither are that great but I do like the ‘Family Affair’ sample in AOAO

”Discipline“ was released 11 years ago today.



-980,000 copies sold worldwide
- became Janet‘s highest charting album since ”All for You“ (2001) and her sixth #1 album
-certified Gold in Japan
-eligible for Gold certification in the US
-the lead single ”Feedback“ became her highest-charting single since ”Someone to Call My Lover“ in 2001, by peaking at #19 on the Hot 100

This album definitely aged like milk and has no personality but Feedback, 2Nite, So Much Betta and Discipline are still bops.

EDIT: just realized that I‘m a day early but whatever loll

[CanYouKeepUp]

Not a big fan of Discipline, though at least she got a Top 20 single out of it.

The only songs I listen to the whole way through are Feedback, Rock With U, The One, What’s Your Name? and Curtains. I don’t particularly think Rock With U was an overly strong single but the video absolutely made up for it. I hated Luv.

[RayRay]

Discipline is still not available on Spotify.

[hun]

That's cool I guess.

[Kaloki]
