I dont think any1 can do it the way she has done and still does it...

Especially how her albums flow...ever since the 3rd album Control, it has been that...

Fast songs go first...slow sexy ballads at the end.

She has the most scariest, sexiest sultry & soulful ballads I have ever heard:

Funny How Time Flies (When U Haveing Fun)
Someday Is 2Nite
Come Back 2 Me
Lonely
Alytime Anyplace
24 Play
Rope Burn
When We Ooo
and the classic Would U Mind (which gets airplay on KMOJ in MPLS all the time).

Those are some genuine ballads no one can ever do the way she does.
epic records

I think Jam&Lewis did Better Jams overall with Cherelle but Janet&them had Better Album Material overall&the timing was just right.A Jackson&Minneapolis SOund Coming at the same time wrapped the 80's up.

I have no idea what you're saying, but I do love Rhythm Nation 1814, if that's what you're talking about.

I love Janet too, but I feel that all of these artists are better:

Bjork
Liz Phair
Annie Lennox
PJ Harvey
Tori Amos
Sade
and of course, Madonna

Janet's done a few good songs in her time, but she can't sing to save her life. Millie Jackson, Etta James, Rosie Gaines, Billie Holliday, Angie Stone, Jill Scott, Ella Fitzgerald, Lena Horne, Lina, Sade, Whitney Houston, Toni Braxton, Erykah Badu, Aretha Franklin, Anita Baker ... excuse me, but who is Janet Jackson now?

I don't think anyone is better, but there are some who equal her for different reasons.

In my eyes Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis simply took Prince's sound and put Janet's voice in front of it. What is my angle for thinking that? She had an album out before she hooked up with J&T. It was only when they gave her Prince sounding music did the world take notice.

I have felt this way for such a long time. Janet is a talented entertainer. Great dancer. I like about five of her songs but she can't sing in my opinion. Jimmy and Terry write some great stuff.
