But with training and experience, you never know. Of course it would have been nice if the label had bothered to give her this training and experience before shoving her into some of the ridiculous songs on Free Yourself. It would have been nice had she been someone like Jill Scott instead of "the third to win". Which is more a commentary on the industry than it is on her. can janet sing? Not particularly. But I like her songs. However, we're talking about singers with voices here, so I don't see how that's part of the equation. You don't like any pop music, either? | |

But it can work if used properly. The days of a label like Motown with its stellar A&R staff (Harvey Fuqua, Suzanne De Passe, Maxine Powell and Cholly Atkins), taking raw young talent and polishing it to a professional sheen are unfortunately long gone. Yes it is, "more a commentary on the industry than it is on her." (lazy SOBs) tA  Tribal Disorder
