They just played Janet's new single but I missed it....the DJ was like, that's the new song from Janet Jackson, called Weekend and apparently it's another remake. What else is knew, LOL. I also understand it's just a preview to warm her fans up, but it's not the albums actual lead single.

Did anyone hear it?

we got it boy

NOT her new single. And as far as I'm concerned, song is lame. But okay, she's going that route, I might not.

Still haven't heard this yet.

VoicesCarry said:

yeah i think this is just a lil teaser so we can calm down for a bit. Usually wouldnt she premire it and stuff as a video around the same time? The album aint out till Fall, it aint even summer yet

GangstaFam said:

Skip it!

Sorry guys. This song sucks bad and her singing is horrible. I'll be patient and wait for the album to drop though.

The singing isn't horrible, it's what they did to her voice in post-production that's horrible.

we just did this yesterday.

goat2004 said:

it's not her new single... just a gift to her fans... go to janet.jackson.com to listen to the sing

Janet's new single ?
"WEEK" & will "END" her career fo sho.

VoicesCarry said:

Oh give me a break. Stop letting Janet off the hook because she is Janet. She sounds horrible on that song. Stop blaming it on the computers. If anything, its computers that made her sound good all these years.

Take it from someone who have seen her live twice. SHE CAN'T SING. She's a helluva performer,yes, but she can't sing. The song sux.

wonder505 said:

You think that shit even SOUNDS like her? Please. Song might be good if they didn't fuck with her tone.

banks said:

Wow some gift. But that's okay, but I believe in the mastery of Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis and I know the CD ain't gonna be wack like this single.

VoicesCarry said:

What tone? What are you talking about? If it don't sound like her then why did Janet, Who has Control right, release it?

wonder505 said:

It was just for the fans. It's not a single, it isn't even on the album. And I'm talking about her smooth, sweet tone that is her trademark. Listen to it - it's NOT Janet Jackson. It's like Cher filtered through a bad vocoder.

VoicesCarry said:

I thought it was growing on you.

GangstaFam said:

Yeah, well, it turned out to be malignant

I decided I can't vote in favor of this one.

VoicesCarry said:

Is the sound of the file crappy? I find that listening to something new on the computer is almost always lackluster.

Call on Me is the new single, releasing to radio June 19th, album & TOUR to follow!!!!!

GangstaFam said:

Check your orgnotes; you will hear what they did to her vocals.

VoicesCarry said:

Okay, so instead of using the computer to give us the trademark smooth sweet voice, the computer gave us a different voice (which sounds horrible), by which Janet herself gave the okay to release as a gift. Oh okay, I get it now. Gosh what would Janet do without a good voice over computer.

Anyway, I don't care, I don't like the song at all, but I'm sure the CD will be tons better.

VoicesCarry said:

I listened. What did they do to her vocals?

GangstaFam said:

Donno. Let's hope the new album isn't all like this, but then I think after the reaction, it won't be.

VoicesCarry said:

I don't know the original, so I don't really have anything to compare it to. I didn't hate it though.

It's a lot better than "Warmth" and "Moist".

GangstaFam said:

At least JD wasn't lying about the 80's productions. But I'll pass on this one, respectfully.

/loves Moist

VoicesCarry said:

It'll be a nice addition when making your "20 Years Old" Plus. Non-album tide-me-over's are almost always welcome in my book.

Do you remember the interview where she explained how men preferred "Moist" and women preferred "Warmth." Or was it the other way around?

GangstaFam said:

yeah, what's up with her site, every time i click that link
a new screen opens and just vanishes again. no song though.
