She is workin with Scott Storch and Polow Da Don.

“We’re gonna put her back in the club. I sent her some tracks and she said off the top, she’s like, ‘I want the hard stuff. I want to dance, I want uptempo, I want club, I want hip." Polow Da Don

Iam really intrested with the work with Scott Storch

L.A's and Janet's plan is sounding alright to me.

If janet work that Scott Storch, I promise that this will the first janet album I won't buy

who have these cats worked with in the past?

Justin Timberfake
50 Cent

Does she really? Then she better not come out with anything but what she mentioned.

Polow Da Don is a good choice.

Does Janet know she is 40?

"I want hip" says it all

Janet has already worked with him on "island life", which is one of my favourite Janet tracks.

He has done some good work with Christina and Kelis

MikeMatronik said:

He was a guest star on the R. Kelly CD I burned. Some kind of "Trapped"-styled song called "Best Friend".

mancabdriver said:

He produced Kelis’s Trilogy, one of my favorite tracks by her ever.

If Polow Da Don can give Janet a track as good as Ciara's "Promise", I'll be happy.

I'll look forward to the Plow tracks because he always switches his style up IMO...

I think janet should stick with Jam & Lewis and get someone european to co-produce the album. Someone from the danceworld like for example Stuart Price or Calvin Harris!

I'm really sick of the piece of shit that is hip-hop!

Well see, there you go! No one asks Prince, does he know his age. I'm wondering why is it different for men in the entertainment industry than men. Prince has a song he made called, FUTURE BABY MAMA. No one's giving him grief for it. But, if Janet made something like that, Oh there'd be hell to pay. Fact, artists from the 80s or whatever decade they'd come out of should work with whomever they choose reguardless of what anyone thinks. The fact that some are still relevant or somewhat relevant from the 80s era is an amazing feat in itself. More power to PRINCE, MJ AND JANET!

I meant to ask, why is it different for men in the entertainment industry than women. I guess women should know their place, stay home, cook, clean, and take care of children. While men on the other hand can work with and say and do whatever, whenever, however...

MikeMatronik said:

The people that worked on "All Nite" and "Put Your Hands On" prove euro producers are Janet's friends! Her working with Stuart Price would probably result in an album better than COADF if you ask me.

VinnyM27 said:

If she did an album with most of their production, it'll probably work. Because those guys kicked butt on "Damita Jo".

scott storch did some beyonce and christina aguilera tracks too

I find it funny how she's chasing ciara's producers, they all try to be like janet, so why is she after people that are clones of her? makes me wonder even more about rene's absence

oh and slolove is the worst janet jackson song ever, sounds nothing like her at all and I'm pretty sure that was produced by a european as well. They work awesome with madonna but I don't know about janet

alphastreet said:

Why does she has to be chasing their producers? Those producers don't work exclusively with those (Beyonce and Ciara) artists. Tina Landon choreographed Ciara's Promise video. I guess Ciara was chasing Janet's past choreographer. Like any artist, she has the right to work with whomever she chooses. Madonna and Janet are two totally different artists. What may work for Madonna, may not work for Janet. Either way, we'll see the outcome and be the critic and judge harshly like always. Whose fault is it that music has changed? Whose fault is it that image is now first and talent is secondary? The change had come in the late 80s. So, artists that did the damn thang back then are being intimidated by the newer artists now. Everything that's old is new again, but worse. Janet is experiementing. If she did the same music as CONTROL from every album after, folks would have problems with that as well. She won't be able to win no matter what she does, cause she's Michael Jackson little sister. But, I admire her for continuing to strive no matter what naysayer speak.

that's the whole idea! janet tries to recreate what she's done before and better but fails at it and has had hits and misses while doing that. And if you ask me, she cares about image more than musical quality these days, why else is she posing naked everywhere and talking about her weight all the time?

alphastreet said:

Very interesting point, alphastreet. Very interesting. Hopefull, all of that crap will change with this next phase. I tell ya' one thing, Janet needs to stop playing and start playing instruments, live. I know she can play the piano and keyboard. She needs to stop hiding or putting that which she truly can do on the backburner. She's cheating herself. Nowadays folks only think of her as chubby, tits and ass. It's infuriating to me as a fan when I know there's so much more to her. If she quits playing and really, for truly show what she can do she'll shut allot of folks-naysayers the hell up! The credits on THE CONTROL LP shows what she can truly do.

I truly hope Janet the recording artist comes back rather than Janet the mainstream celebrity because in my honest opinion, that's all we've been getting from her since "All For You". Just a mainstream acceptance of being an icon and legend. The next album, she has to act like she's trying to get her FIRST gold record again.

DawnD said:

I'm glad we can finally agree! It's been pissing me off for years that people only know one or two of her current hits and say she sucks, and calling her michael with tits without even considering all the excellent stuff she's put out and how she's paved the way for the poor man's little janet jacksons out there they love. Janet doing what she's recently done makes me think she's putting whatever out there cause she's janet jackson, but she needs to remind people just WHY she's janet jackson

bottom line: janet needs 2 hole up with jimmy and terry go back 2 mpls and create some awesome shit. no more kanye, no more jermaine or any other outside influence. get back 2 the grooves!

Janet's going on some new work? SHe just got an album out!. She hasn't made all the videos or even toured.
