The one she's wearing in the photo. A full shot is somewhere. ![]() Let's see, she has a Greatest Hits coming out, which I doubt will do well. She has a new film, studio album, and book all for next year. It'll be interesting how some of these do. I like her work with Darkchild. He said that he wants the album to sound like her previous albums, before All For Poo, including the masterpiece, The Velvet Rope. I'm wondering if she's actually going to work with Jam and Lewis as they said themselves last year. Now it's all about Darkchild.

Oh okay. Did she sell it or? If she works with Darkchild AND Jam and Lewis it can only be good. She really should. The death of Michael is the best publicity she could've hoped for. I just think the greatest hits need a more iconic cover. So people go "Ooooh God, it's THAT Janet" - she did have loads of huge singles back in the day, she just needs to remind people why they should even care about her new stuff. It really is now or never for her. Discipline was good, now she just needs to do something better and get it OUT there. |

It was sold for charity. I hate the Greatest Hits cover, but I sort of think she has little to do with it, just like Mariah's Song Best Of's all the time. Janet owed a Greatest Hits, the last on her contract with Virgin. This is an obligation. She's finally coming to the UK to promote though. FINALLY! Bitch needs to get with it, WORLDWIDE, not just America. |

"When we caught up with producer Rodney Jerkins on the VMA red carpet in September, he was already hard at work on Janet Jackson's next studio album. Now the super-producer is opening up a lot more on exactly what fans can expect for Janet's 11th studio album. Janet is like my sister now," Jerkins told MTV News on Wednesday (October 21) at his Los Angeles recording studio. "We definitely have this incredible chemistry, this bond — I think we musically connect, crazily. I knew it — it's funny 'cause I predicted this. Five years ago, people used to ask me who I wanted to work with, and I was like, 'Janet Jackson.' And I was so passionate about that because I've always been a fan of her music and what her and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis have done in the past. And I felt like, knowing she wants to try new things, that I feel I can get it and I can deliver it for her," he said. DarkChild explained that fans can look forward to an emotionally driven album. "Since we've been working ... I feel like the studio has become a second home for her because with the whole situation with Michael [Jackson] happening, and I feel like right now, emotionally, she can come here and let all her feelings out. I got her writing again — she has the pen and the pad in her hand." But it's not just the recent passing of her brother Michael that is fueling the content of Jackson's album. Fans are going to see a side of Janet that they've never seen before, thanks in part to Rodney's persuasion. "You gotta understand, she lost her brother. She was in a relationship for seven years that's over now. There's things that she told me that I didn't even realize. You know, certain [things] like self-esteem that I didn't even realize that she dealt with for years that you know. ... She's working on her book and she'll deal with that in her book, but also in songs, certain songs we're dealing with that head on. And sometimes it can be a touchy subject for us to even go into, and I kinda had to persuade her, 'Let's just go, let's talk about that.' And she's been doing it, and she's a pro about it." Although Rodney says you can expect some up-tempo dance tracks on the new album, it won't have the futuristic sound we heard on her last project, 2008's Discipline. "It's funny, 'cause when we just started the project, she was like, 'I wanna do 10 dance records, all up-tempo to dance. Let's just go dance,' " Jerkins said. The sound is inspired by worldwide influences, from African rhythms to Brazilian and Latin music, and RJ said we can expect features on this album like a Pitbull track that was recorded last week. "But she hits me today and she says we need to do some mid-tempos as well," Rodney continued. "And I'm glad for that because there's a time when you listen to a record that you wanna mellow out and she always gives us those great smoothed-out mellow records. So now that she's in that zone, it's like 'Yes!' 'cause we can focus on that. But I'm still gonna keep the beats hard underneath 'cause she's still a dancer at heart." Jenkins and Jackson co-produced her recently released single, "Make Me," which will be included on her greatest-hits compilation Number Ones, due in November. A release date has not been announced for her yet-untitled studio album." http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1624481/2...son_janet.jhtml |

Oh please. It'll still be full of tuneless drivel about being slowly fucked up the ass against a wall in the rain while playing with her clit ring. It's all she can do. |

If she gives a free bucket of KFC chicken with every album bought then I think this new Janet album may sell 181,000 copies worldwide. Which would be a huge improvement on her last 3 albums. |

This is it for Janet, LaToya Sisterly feud surfaces in arguments over Michael's kids Comments BY BILL ZWECKER Sun-Times Columnist More raw emotion in the Jackson family: I've learned that Janet and LaToya Jackson got into expletive-filled screaming matches in three separate phone calls this week. Janet is furious about LaToya continuing to give press interviews about Michael, his kids and the "This Is It" film. According to a reliable family insider, Janet "is sick and tired of LaToya's insatiable need to in the spotlight," and is particularly angry about LaToya's comments about the kids "being in therapy," when they merely had some grief counseling to deal with the shock of their father's death. While the children understandably deeply miss Michael, "they are coping extremely well," says the source, who adds LaToya is "insanely jealous of Janet," especially since Paris, Prince Michael and Blanket have made it clear they want Janet, and not LaToya or another family member, to be named successor guardian for them upon Katherine Jackson's death. http://www.suburbanchicagonews.com/newssun...TR-zp28.article |

Billboard reviews "Make Me": ARTIST: JANET JACKSON SINGLE: MAKE ME (A&M/UMe) Janet Jackson gave her late brother, Michael, two gifts in September. First, the singer paid tribute by performing their "Scream" duet at the MTV Video Music Awards; then she premiered the "Off the Wall"-inspired dance track "Make Me," now a single on her "Number Ones" album due November 17. Her most appealing and high-energy track since the 2001 "All for You," the song thumps aggressively, with a funky guitar lick driving the rhythm. Its nonstop vamp recalls "Don't Stop Til You Get Enough," as Jackson puts a new twist on that classic disco number's chorus. "Don't stop it baby, don't stop til you get it up ... Ain't nobody else like you/Only you got the moves you do." "Make Me" isn't just Jackson's best dance song in years -- it's a hit that would make her brother proud. Janet will also be performing at the American Music Awards. |

the track listing is great on the album its weird that she cant come up with decent album cover artwork - she had four excellent covers in a row (control to VR) but they have been absolutely shite since then. |
