I knew Jermaine and Ne-Yo were not talented enough to come up with something as good as Rock With U without a template. Do you think this group is getting their royalty cheques? There was no sample credited.

You will see on the credits for "Rock Wit U" that Eric Stamile is credited. He did this 2007 remix:



The Janet song is still great but my point was I am not about to cite Dupri for suddenly being a great house producer lol


Double whammy lol

So Stamile didn't credit the group?
It sounds like Dupri purchased the song anyway. Whoever really produced it just put the intro off the '86 track in a loop and added synths.

Who said that?

Janet and Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis have a bond that no other artists/producer duos have nor can duplicate and it's evident in her music from Control-AFY. I know they worked with her on Damita Jo and 20 Y.O. but the bond was interfered by unneeded producers and writers. When its' Janet, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis in the credits it's ALWAYS good. I can't think of one bad song where it was just those three. I hope she doesn't make another album like 20 Y.O.and Discipline. Those 2 albums were cute and just cute. Besides a few tracks I could do without the rest. If Jimmy & Terry aren't doing a full album. I hope they do her signature ballads and do what they do best by highlighting her harmonies and bringing out the soul in her voice. I didn't hear this when she worked with others. It's like she loses her spark when she doesn't work with people she bonds with.

There are a few things that need to happen if Janet is to really have a fruitful creative partnership with them again.

First, Jam & Lewis need to update their sound and step it up with their production, since they veered sharply towards using samples as the foundation for an entire song by the time All For You rolled around. They haven't produced a big hit, or even really anything of note since AFY (the exception may be Gwen's Harajuku Girls and Chaka's last album) - there's a reason for that.

Second, they need to learn to press the "EDIT" button and focus on creating a streamlined album for her. No bloated Damita Jo, please.

I really feel as if her best bet is to work with them, but also work with other producers who seem to know how to get something great out of her, like Rodney (Feedback was one of her best uptempos in years - and it sounded like a Janet song should) or the Avila Brothers.

I agree that Janet should not bother doing ballads with anyone else.

Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis have produced several hits since AFY "Bad girl and "U Remind Me" by Usher from the hugely successful Confessions album Barry White huge comeback song I Only Want To Be With You "If You Wanna Have Some Fun" by Spice Girls "Open My Heart" by Yolanda Adams (won a Grammy for it) & several others
