Since it's Janet and prince.org, I guess everybody's gotta bitch. But I'm happy with LL. I'm glad it's not some tweenie pop act of the moment. And there is the potential for them to do a hot number together. I always thought Janet should have been on Control Myself in place of J.Lo.

I wouldn't say support acts are added in order to cut time from the main act... it is the usual set up to have a support act... it kinda goes against the norm to go out without support acts! It's kinda considered cheap to not have one! Of course it is also cheap to, like in that case Mariah, have 2 support acts and only play 65 mins! Personally I've never been to a concert (and I've been to over 200) where the main act was that cheap.... most of the times I've been to gigs with 2 support acts the main act still played for at least 2 hours! And I did see bands who had a support act on certain dates, but didn't have one on other dates and still they played the same show, same length... so it is added value!

And if a act is physically not able to do 2 hours anymore, but still insists on his/her usual pay check then I also view it as a added value to at least have a good support act!


Yeah, I liked his show too!

True. Ive been to a million shows, 73 just Prince, and im more into seeing the artist i paid for, i understand the opening act theory and all that, what i dislike alot of times is getting tricked into an artist, meaning not billing an opener, and finding out when you get there that the artist you wanna see is not going on till 9:30 especially at GA shows, Duran Duran did this one year on their unplugged tour where they had 3 openers and then did a 60 minute acoustic set, which is not in character for Duran, but just saying keeping things like that a secret sucks.

Co-headliners is a different thing because your getting the show they would do normally, just getting a more seasoned bill. Hall and Oates and Chicago went out together and did 2+ hours each then did some stuff together, other bands like Journey do the same, usually with Reo or Styx. So there is a difference. Im not knocking Janets choice because LL is old school, and she culd have really had someone shitty like akon open just to get asses in seats.

And i can guarantee that almost everyone praising Janets opening choice are gonna be bitching come the day after the shows.

i paid to see Me'shell at her first show in support of Comfort Woman, the cd wasn't out yet, she played all new songs. The opening act played for an hour. Me'shell played for 45mins

are u serious? Compared 2 who? Hes a legend but ummm it aint 85 no more...his rhymes are WEAK

lyrics 2 MY BABY:

I Met this little girl, she was off the hook
I got cold chills when her body shook
Hot sex on the platter no need to cook
I let her steal my heart like a horny crook
Had her grinding and winding against my leg
She messin with my head, wanna play in the bed
Sexy pumps on, toenails red
Your bodys a gun baby, pump me full of lead
It hard to hold you when you movin' vulgar
Peace sign on your eyes like John Travolta
My pulp ain't fiction, it's an addiction
To see your booty clap on the floor in the kitchen
Nasty girl, taught me all the lingo
While mama play bingo, she ride mandingo
She dont give a damn if im married or single
She makes me tingle

[b]She likes Hip-Hop and R&B
Her life time goal is to be on TV
She looking for a man that could give her a break
Like Usher or Justin Timberlake
Im really not sure if her breasts are fake
Cuz wit whipped cream on em, they taste just like cake
We drink some beer, inside of daddy's '64
She shot me in the back with cupids arrow
We finish the 6-pac, she push the seat back
Pulled up her dress n she let me peep that
Im Drunk as a skunk, feeling all dirty
Truck stop bathroom at 7:30
Bought her some dessert, give a damn if its early
Head spinnin around like roller derby
Everything about her says you dont deserve me
I hope im worthy


In the back of the pickup, clothes are rip up
She see my chrome wheels, it gets more real
Running and laughing, music blasting
Side over the road, bent over crashing
Mouth all dry, can feel the urge
If you see my mama, dont say a word
The cops wanna know im a word are slurred
Dont ask me officer ask her
Wanna another drink baby she like sure
Wanna hit the club she like I dont curr
She all in the rearview doin her hurr
Hairspray and lip gloss everywhurr
This all happens on an average day
Your life is a trip girl, im here to stay
Never had a girl make me feel this way
Even tho I had to pay


I couldve wrote this rolleyes

But what do you expect from LL? thats his game, women and sexual innuendo, he has never really strayed from that gimmick. And for people that think him and Janet might do a duet or something, maybe, but get it done quick, because LL is out there getting groupies about an hour after his setlist is through

When I saw Busta Rhymes open for Mariah Carey, I thought "perfect! they can do Give It To Me"... their existing duet song but their performances never overlapped.

I can't imagine LL wrapping his set and then coming back later during Janet's to duet on a song that they have yet to record.

it would be cool if Janet sang "Control Myself" with LL Cool J somehow during her own Bambaataa-sampling "Get It Out Me".

that's all i got. shrug

I think LL may still have it altho his last album was not so great. Baby is one of those easy basic songs for the ladies. Don't care for it not because of his rhyming, but because I don't care much for the track. I think there will be better stuff on Exit 13 but overall he's a legend and when he starts doing those older cuts, he'll definitely have the crowd's attention.

Knowing LL he will be lining up ladies for that night, as opposed to waiting around for a Janet collabo

Not interested in the opening act or janet. Like their past accomplishments
but i don't care to see either live now.

Hopefully after viewing this video janet is a step away from
dumping jermaine's little annoying ass and maybe my interest in
janet may be renewed again. lol

Wow, u none hip hop fans really make me laugh...first of all, 70% of Exit 13 are actually hardcore hip hop tracks with tight lyrics (five tracks have been leaked thus far)...the other 30% are songs like Baby, Cry, and Feel My Heartbeat.

Also, unless u guys have been in a fucking coma for the last 20 years....LL's live performances is full of energy, he gives it his all, he doesnt just stand there (like every other rapper) and wave his hands from side to side and bob his head , he actually performs. I just had to get my two cents in there. I'm a huge fan of both artist, especially Janet.

Peace!

Jeez, JD's an annoying guy. lol at Janet's reaction to the whole thing. I wonder if this was an act or if she was she really irritated. I would love it it wasn't a pre-planned response from her. falloff

As far as LL being the opening act. I think it's a good choice. She'll pull in the guys, he'll pull in the women. And since they are around the same age it won't be a huge gap in age or demographic in the audience.
