The day after it LEAKED, it went to 20 mill & made a debut on the Hot 100 R&B coming in at #69. love is a fate resigned memories mar my mind love it is a fate resigned Over futile odds and laughed at by the Gods and now the final frame Love is a losing game |

both songs can do well, ya know.  this doesn't have to be a zero-sum situation.
that said, they both better watch out for xtina's new jam though! its gonna sneak attack both pop stars.  [Edited 6/20/06 12:24pm] | |

[Edited 6/20/06 12:24pm] Now the new Christina single I like. She took a little bit of a chance there and so far it's paying off. Unfortunately Janet is not in the same position as Christina and needs a song that's super-safe to win back radio play after everything that has happened. | |

The only difference is that the Aguliera track won't be getting much support from Urban or Urban AC (unlike the Janet track).
That can make a big difference. BTW, don't forget Paris Hilton! That shit is hot! sike. | |

1472 spins 397 Pop 576 Rhythmic Top 40 450 Urban 39 Urban AC 10 Hot AC What the hell is the difference between Rhythmic Top 40 and Urban? I can understand Urban AC. I think that's where it will start to do well after a while since it doesn't really feature a rap or anything and it's soft. | |

Rhythmic Top 40 does lean more towards urban now, however, this always wasn't the case. Pop and dance used to contribute largely to the format, however, time and tastes change. With that said...
Congrats to Janet on a very healthy debut on the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Singles Chart! #8 Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles #48 R&B/Hiphop Singles Anyone know where Bouncy debuted the first week out? AND BTW, why am I the only one posting chart updates? I don't even like the song.  | |

The S.O.S. band sample is very subtle. I didn't even notice it the first time I heard the song. | |

When a sample or interpolation is that short or subtle I really wonder why they couldn't come up with something original for those few bars. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

You've heard the album already? I was played some tracks. I could NOT take it. The word CRAP comes 2 mind. There was a catchy lil tune called "pop" that was cool. | |

Wow. In your opinion was it worse than or on the same level as AFY and DJ? But I guess your answer is only really relevant if you think they were 2 of her weaker albums not including Janet Jackson and Dreamstreet. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

I don't know about this one man.....just OK material. A 40 year old singing about the weekend? what should she sing about? i'm only asking because i partially agree but...when other artists try it, the general public tends to get bored and say they're not fun anymore. so how does janet avoid this catch-22? for instance, people have been hoping prince goes back to his nastier self for years now. so many folks say he lost his humour when he became jehovah's witness. the same with madonna. a lot of people lost interest with her around ray of light and didn't become interested again until this new record (note: i'm NOT talking about madge's fans, i'm talking about people in the general, music buying public). for u2 it was the reverse. when they changed up their thing, people really gave them shit for it (zooropa and pop, anyone?). so what would you do if you were janet jackson? would you stick to what you know or would you risk losing even more by changing things up now? keep in mind, she needs this record to be a huge hit after the dismal sales of damita jo and nipplegate. .

[Edited 6/22/06 8:43am] weekend was not covered for the cd... she already stated that the song was just a gift to her fans.... hold ya judgement until you hear the cd | |

I'm wondering if you actually heard the album. I'm not doubting that you heard some of her music, but the authenticity of what you heard. There was an outtake from (I believe) Damita Jo called Pops Up that was pretty good. Weekend was not an album track at all. | |

I hope NONE of what I heard is on the new cd. | |

Also, doing a bunch a rehashed, sample laden material is just lazy and TIRED. It would just be REALLY nice 2 hear some ORIGINAL music for a change. [Edited 6/22/06 11:25am] | |

Even that Nelly track is NOT that good and we know that one is "official". | |
