far from a Janet song. Maybe guest starring, to get pitbull some sales


well considering he is one of the most successful indie artists ever, im not sure he needs the boost. Maybe he is showing her how to properly do the "indie" thing

I think most people take Janet too seriously lol I know she has made serious music concerning important issues but at the same time most of her music is about having a good time and pleasure. This is one of them. It's like Janet can't do anything right. If she goes back to her old forumla people get mad and say she's rehashing past glories. If she does something different and very now then she's trying too hard. Damn.

The sound is more like a Pitbull track than a Janet track. I'm not really a fan of Pitbull (or Janet, for that matter) but I like his track "Hotel Room Service" much more than this.
Plus the video for "Hotel Room Service" has some VERY fine looking ladies. A video for this new song could never compete, even if Janet puts on her sexiest push-up bra. razz

Why do Janet fans/stans always label something as a hit? I'm so over that mess. We've been saying this Damita Jo! "Nothing" won't be a hit at all. It's a ballad. No one's underestimating JD. He's overrated and sucks with Janet. Yes, he can make hits with Mariah and Usher but all he does is make the crap and most embarrassing music with Janet. No hits at all. I heard that "Nothing" is a cross between "With U" and "My Need" so you can make your own conclusions on how it will sound.

If anything this song has a chance to blow up on radio.


I think the main thing is just let go of the idea of having a "Hit" in all ways, be it a ballad a dance track a cover song whatever, just do good shit, this goes for all artists, if when you sit down and do music if your saying "This will get me played" then just quit because you are a done deal. I mean in this market now, if Janet got the play that others half her age got i would be shocked, but at the end of the day she can still sell albums and get people to come to her shows, so who cares about some radio bull crap status.




Because radio play means hit record=record sales. Janet is at a different level now. She is going to be watched more than ever. Since her brother passed away. They are looking at her to carry the torch that MJ had. This is a different situation than other artist have or had. People are looking at her in different eyes now. She has a another chance to shine again. She has already had mega success like MJ and is going to have a chance to have it again...Just like MJ. She is his heir apparent.

Janet has already got top billing on "Why Did I Get Married Too" poster. What does that say? Tyler Perry knows what he has in his movie. That is why he had her record the new song for the Soundtrack. This movie is going to be huge. Because people want to see whats left after MJ,MISS JACKSON. She is going to deliver and maybe even get an Oscar nomination. more Grammy's & and a top seller book...

Maybe it should be the other way around: Pitbull feat. Janet. Because as far as I know if you have less duration than the other, it shouldn't be called a "Janet song".

All understand and good points. But what i am saying is that you still have to go about it, as to doing the project you want because you are still the one that has to stand behind it. My point is the market, at least airplay has passed her by and alot of others, this is not the 80's and 90's the lack of being diverse isnt there anymore, so unless she is going to jump on a track with GaGa, i dont see a "radio hit", thats not saying she would have "commercial success" i mean Prince debuted at Number one and no one knew he had a record out, bruce Springsteen always debuts at one and gets no play, Bon Jovi the same thing, no radio hit and sorry but Jovi is as commercial as it comes and if they cant get on top 40 /rock radio, with an album that has outsold other artists, than why put stock in radio at all at this point. Janets Fans aare going to buy this record whether they like the new songs or not, if she singing songs with Kermit the Frog count her loyal fans in, you will rarely (you will get some) pick up new fans when you are in your 40's.

Yeah like i said on the net on a few download sites that have it leaked, it states Pitbull featuring, he is on the cover art and she isnt.

^^ That just reminds me of some MJ fans titling the song "Gangsta" as MJ featuring... when it was really Temperamental feat. Pras & MJ.

Janet isn't going to carry shit that belongs to her brother. You're acting Janet is going to fill MJ's shoes. Understand there's no connections between Janet and her brother just the fact that they're related. Different artists, Different everything.

Yea, Janet and MJ are two different artists. Not all Janet fans support MJ and the same can be side vice versa. I don't know why he was even brought up....

I'm a bit confused is it Janet feat. Pitbull or Pitbull feat. Janet? Rodney is giving Janet top billing but in an interview he made it sound like it was Janet featuring on a Pitbull track.

confuse

Rodney should be the last person to credit one over the other. The track sounds more Pitbull-ish. Rodney must be drinking too much Patron or something to credit that first to Janet.

It doesn't sound Pitbull-ish to me. Yea, it's samba but that doesn't mean it's Pitbull's song. I think he intentionally crafted it this way to get Janet back on radio.

Maybe but it's not really Janet's song. That's the confusing part. I can't really cheer on that note yet lol

I know U don't really need a song on the radio if u have loyal fans and have built a loyal fan-base over decades like Prince(my musical idol) & Janet and other artist to sell and become number one on the charts. But I just feel she will be watched more closely and given more a chance because of the circumstances. She has already appeared on the top award shows performing since MJ's passing already and people are waiting to hear anything new she has lately coming out. There is a bigger anticipation of her now versus last year this time. Her age doesn't have anything to do with that. She can be twelve or ninety. Still the same anticipation...

JANETTTTT!!! YESSSSS!!

This is what people want from Janet. Music you can dance and move to. It's also something so different from her. I love it! Always creating these lanes. No one else is doing music like this.

I love the part when they start the African chanting with the EY! EY! EY! and finger snaps.

dancing jig

Can't see how anyone can hate on this track.






I like it, I just dont get in2 Pitbull that much however I do respect him because he's so fuckin fine love but I kinda wanted more Janet on this track...however it will sound really dated in the next 5 years. Good for now...

People always underestimate Jermaine. He can write a hit single. Plus he need Janet's trust back. Trust "Nothing" is going to be a hit.

I think they want it to be a hit leading to Janet's next album. Usually songs that are recorded right away usually become hits. It was just recorded in three days so it can make the soundtrack of."Why Did I Get Married Too".
