The highly anticipated new single from Janet Jackson has finally surfaced. The track, entitled ‘Nothing’, was co-produced by Jermaine Dupri and Bryan-Michael Cox. The song serves as the first release from the soundtrack Jackson’s new movie, ‘Why Did I Get Married Too?’, and will officially debut on radio on March 30th. Check out ‘Nothing’ below:
It seems Jackson decided to take us back to the classic sound of her ‘janet.’ album with this one. Never the powerhouse singer, her vocals suited the production well, although many may have been hoping for a bit more from her delivery.
Interestingly, I have noticed that over the last few months attacks on Jackson have been from many of the stans of a certain Bajan model who claim that Jackson cannot sing and that she merely “whispers”. Once again ignorance continues to prevail among the minds of today’s youth because anyone born before 1995 would know that what Jackson lacks in power, she makes up for with technique (see ‘I Get Lonely’). However, in the case of the other star in question, we all know that sound of a goat’s castration is as good as it gets. Sit.Down.
sounds like micheal :]
More RiRi hate. It’s really getting pathetic now
JESUS WILL B PRAISED AMEN THIS ONG IS FIYA OMG OMG FIYA
well said Trent!!!!! thank u 4 posting this song is beautiful, Janet’s voice just suites the record! well done to her and of cause JD and B-C** for really diggin deep 2 find something beautiful like this! i believe Janet wrote this song! the lyrics are amazing! im happy she’s back to writing!
VOCALS GIVE ME VELVET ROPE ERA / MJ
OVERALL PRODUCTION GIVES ME JANET. ERA
IT SOUNDS LIKE A “AGAIN” PART 2.
I’M IN LOVE WITH IT. CAUSE YOU CAN ACTUALLY HEAR EMOTIONS IN THE SONG AND VOCALS.
SO GLAD IT DOESNT SOUND LIKE A TYPICAL JD TRACK. LOL
MY FAV PART OF THE SONG IS…
Tell me what could the problem be
That’s got you drinking way to much or could it be about us

I cant let it go
What could I do to make you see that there is no need for jealousy or insecurities

How dare some people even compare Rihanna to Janet – Rih just started out and I have yet to see her slay a performance like Janet has on manny on occasion…
XOXO
@Jayden and @Ade
What I think you two need to keep in mind, is that THIS IS NOT HER FIRST SINGLE. This is just a track for the soundtrack. I’m sure her first single will be a “Club Banger” tho

BUT OF COURSE JANHOVA GONNA SLAY CEDRIC. LOL
ADE

this is a very good track.
oh whaddya know, jermaine dupri produced this, and it’s solid.
oh whaddya know, jermaine dupri produced mariah careys ‘100%’ and it was very solid.
oh whaddya know, jermaine dupri produced a TON of earlier mariah carey hits (Always Be My Baby, We Belong Together, Don’t Forget About Us and more) AND KILLED THEM ALL!!!!!!!!
MARIAH WHY ARE YOU NOT EMPLOYING AND PAYING THE S*** OUT OF THIS MAN!? HE BRINGS OUT THE BEST OF YOU and EVERY OTHER ARTIST HE WORKS WITH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Classic Janet. Might be a hit !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love Janet Jackson and whoever brings up anyone besides maybe Madonna or Whitney Houston(female artists) up against her go shoot yourself PLEASE.
She does sound like Michael on this song, this will be great for the movie.
This is a beautiful song! To those of you who don’t like it : You have to listen to is a couple of times! Give it a chance. !
Can’t wait for the movie!
OMG, The gurl can sing.. Not like i didn’t know that, but she can sing.. She sounds so much like MJ on this.. Even though this is the movie sound track this can blow up on the main charts. This is so classic her.. Queen of Pop 4life.
S*** I NEED THE DMAN LYRICS BC I CANT UNDERSTAND HER USUAL MUBMLING AND WHSIPERING
NEXT>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
RIHANNS STRONG GOATING>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> JANETS BABY SOUNDING WHSIPERS
TECHNIQUE?????? WHAT TECHINIQUE??????????????????????
JUST STRAIGHT BABY-SOUNDING WHISERPING
I NEED TO SEE JANERT SLAY RUSSIAN ROULETTE THEN WE CAN TALK
A BABY CAN WHSIPER IN HER CASE SING BETTER
i’ve always loved a good janet ballad, but the last few albums have been lacking any IMO.
to me, this is her best ballad since “the velvet rope” era, maybe “all for you” era.
beautiful.
HIHIHIHIHI
RITARDATION SOUNDS LIKE A BILLY GOAT ON CRACK PUNK!
SHE WILL NEVER SING LIKE AALIYAH, JANET, MYA, BEYONCE, MONICA, MARY, MARIAH, OR WHITNEY PUNK!
RITARDATION WILL NEVER HUN! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME M*****?
JANHOVA = GOD
RITARDATION = GOAT
TIFFANY EVANS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>RITRARDATION
JOJO >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>RITARDATION
WOULD I LIE?
JANHOVA IS CLEARLY NOT WHISPERING.
SHADE IS THE MEDIA THINKS JANET SINGS BETTER THAN RIHANNA. LOL
RIHANNA HAS A LIL NICE VOICE ON HER BUT SHE SOUNDS ANNOYING.
WHEN JANET ACTUALLY SINGS SHE SOUNDS SOO GOOD AND EASY ON THE EARS.
uhm..I’d have to agree with a lot of people.
That was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO boring. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I couldn’t even make it through the whole thing.
plus the lyrics were lame.
It’s like she jotted them down in 5 minutes and sat in the booth almost lifeless and just sort of whispered them on tempo.
So…lethargic and uninspired.
NEXXXXXXT.
you betta saaaaaaaaaaang janet!!! i love the song especially the lyrics
FLOP SHE COULD NEVER COMPETE WITH KELIS. I HOPE INTERSCOPE DOESN’T WASTE MONEY ON THIS HEFFA BECAUST KELIS IS COMING OUT & SHE MEANS BUSINESS WITH HER NEW ALBUM FLESH TONE! F*** WHAT U HEARD. .. . KELIS IS THE QUEEN OF POP/R&B F*** MARIAH CAREY, JANET, BEYONCE, & MARY J OLD ASSESS. . . .KELIS IS THAT B**** U DREAM, FINGER TO, & WANT TO BE LIKE
That is so boring & why is she working with JD again. No Janet sis this is not it. and Ima go with what Dania said about Kelis. Kelis is bringing something new to the table and I need that not some dated ballad especially from Janet. But I will go check out her movie with Tyler Perry.
SORRY I AM A RIHANNA FAN BUT I CHOOSE JANET ALLL DAYY LEGENND!”
i still like rihanna but NO dont direspect The QUEEN!”
LOL@ ALL THE FLYING MONKEYS GETTING PRESSED OVER A SONG THATS FOR A MOVIE AND NOT HER NEW ALBUM.
JANHOVA = GOD
AND SHE SLAYS ALL OF YOU!
KELIS?????????? DIDNT THAT B**** GET DROPPED FROM HER LABEL?
KELIS????????? ISNT THAT B**** NEW SONG FLOPPING HARDER THAN KHIA ISH?
KELIS????????? IS NOT EVEN A BIG SELLER SO WTF MAKES YOU THINK SHE CAN COMPETE WITH JANHOVA?
YALL ARE PRESSED AS HELL.
JANET SLAYS YOU B****** AND YA FLOPS. LOL
YALL WANT A CLUB BANGER FROM HER BUT THIS IS FOR A MOVIE. LOL
YALL ARE SO DUMB AND WACK!
WHAT YOU WANT HER TO DO? MAKE AUTOTUNE SONGS? MAKE MUSIC LIKE SOULJA BOI?
HELL NO.
QUALITY IS WAY BETTER THAN THE S*** THAT HITS NUMBER ONES THESE DAYS.
IF YOU NOT
JANET
BEYONCE
GAGA
AND AT TIMES MARIAH
YOU DO NOT MATTER!
RIHANNA ISNT A LEGEND NOR IS KELIS.
KELIS WILL ALWAYS BE THE B**** NO ONE PAYS ATTENTION TOO. SHE WANTS TO BE GAGA SO BAD. BUT SHE IS A OLD ASS B**** WHO WANTS TO COMPETE WITH GAGA AND RIHANNA.
KELIS WILL NEVER BE JANET, MARIAH, BEYONCE, WHITNEY, LADY GAGA OR ANYONE ELSE PUNK!
CIARA EVEN OUTSOLD THAT BEAST!
HOW IS THE LYRICS TO THIS SONG DUMB?
IT RELATES TO THE MOVIE AND ALSO TALKS ABOUT REAL S***!
YOU FAILED MOOSE!
i’m sorrry but she sounds too much like MJ
it’s a bit boring
SHE ALWAYS SOUNDED LIKE MJ. THEY ARE BOTHER AND SISTER.
ITS NOT BORING. YALL JUST LIKE THAT KATRINA NEW ORLEANS MUSIC.
very blah to me.
1.) TRENT/SAM IS VERY CHILDISH AND GHETTO TO EVEN ADDRESS THOSE WHO COMPARE RIHANNA TO JANET . THEYRE IGNORANT …WHY WOULD YOU PUBLICLY ADDRESS IT IN A POST, WHEN MANY COMPARE JANET TO BEYONCE, TO BRITNEY, TO MANY.
EACH OF THEM IS A STAR IN THEIR OWN RIGHT. JANET IS NOT KNOWN FOR HER VOCALS, WHATSOEVER. SHES AN ENTERTAINER. RIHANNA CAN SING AND HAS A DISTINCT VOICE. HER VOICE IS ADDICTIVE.
2.) I LOVE JANET …SHES THE ULTIMATE ICON AND I HAVE EVERY SINGLE ALBUM OF HERS AS WELL AS RIHANNAS……..RIHANNA IS A RISING ICON. SHE WILL BE AROUND FOR A VERY LONG TIME. LIKE IT OR NOT.
3.) THIS SONG LEAVES ME VERRRRRRRRRRY DISAPPOINTED. IM PISSED THAT WHEN PEOPLE HYPE S*** UP AND IT ENDS UP BEING NOT GOOD.
JANET PLEASE LEAVE JD ALONE.
i love janet, i love rihanna.
trent stfu and u sit.down. cos after all this u put rihanna in ur top 5 songs? hypocrites. yuck.
OMG, some of you should really kill yourselves, honestly. “This song is boring”, um first of all this is a single to a soundtrack. I bet if she was singing about d*** and popping her booty it would be a hit right. Wow, I agree with Trent, I believe some of you who leave dumb ass comments like that were born like in 2000 or something like that. Russian Roulette is a boring ass song.
NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THIS DAMN SONG!
YALL JUST WANNA STR8 UP HATE.
SHE ISNT SINGING ABOUT TOUCH MY BODY OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
ITS A MATURE SONG. IF YOU DISLIKE THIS SONG AND YOU A FAN THAN YOU MUST NOT LIKE HER OLDER WORK OF ART.
RIHANNA CANT SING LIKE JANET PERIOD!
JANET HAS EMOTIONS AND DEPTH IN HER VOICE.
“WHAT ABOUT” AND “I GET LONELY AND OTHER JANET SONGS SLAYS RIHANNA VOCALLY AND LYRICALLY WHOLE CATALOG.
I like it. It’s very old school Janet, which we haven’t seen in a while. I think it’s one of the better tracks that she’s delivered in a while. It really seems like Janet is stepping her game up. With this song, and Make Me, she’s starting to go back to being the Janet that everyone fell in love with.
Sidenote: I swere Sam, & Trent (especially Trent) are like a couple of bitchy 13 year old’s. I really don’t see why they find it necessary to make a jab at Rihanna in almost every other post they make. It’s fine that you don’t like her, but you guys really take it over the top. Almost as if you’re doing it just to provoke her fans.
EXCATLY TERRY!
SHE ISNT SINGING ABOUT S** OR CLUBS OR MAKING COCKY AS MUSIC.
SO HOW IS THIS SONG BLAH AND BORING? ITS MORE TO MUSIC THAN A CLUB BANGER OR EVERYTHING SOUNDING LIKE A BEYONCE OR GAGA SONG. CAUSE LETS FACE IT! MOST ARTIST COPY THEM TWO MUSIC.
JANET JUST KEEP DOING YOUR THING. I FEEL THE SONG FITS THE MOVIE PERFECTLY.
NO ONE HYPED THIS SONG UP AT ALL. YOU CHOSED TO BE HYPED UP FOR IT!
This is a classic. Janet ballad as for her voice it has always had that soft quality so I don’t see the problem,this track has a Michael feel as well. This is a good song nonetheless. Can’t wait to see what Janet has in store this go round.
IF JANET NEW ALBUM GONNA BE A MIXTURE OF…
MAKE ME
HEARTBEATLOVE FEAT PITBULL
AND NOTHING
THAN IT WILL BE AMAZING.
MAKE ME (STR8 UP CLASSIC VINTAGE JANET)
HEARTBEATLOVE (NEW SCHOOL JANET WILL OUTDANCE YA FAV)
NOTHING (JUST A CLASSIC VINTAGE JANET SONG THAT TALKS ABOUT REAL ISH)
“However, in the case of the other star in question, we all know that sound of a goat’s castration is as good as it gets. Sit.Down.”
OMFG Trent…you DID NOT just go there!! AHHHHH *dead, deceased, mummified*
RESPECT BLACK QUEENS OF MUSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!
JANET JACKSON

BUT FOR THE FANS REPPING ARTIST WITH NO TALENT AND WANNA GO AFTER PEOPLE WITH ACTUAL TALENT IS BEYOND ME. LOL
You guys need to stop acting so ghetto over the internet.
This is a nice little ballad. Reminds me of old school Janet. I get a hint of MJ in her voice too. All the Jacksons sound alike when singing. This sounds like it will be a hit. Sounds like old school 90s Janet.
YALL ONLY LIKE GHETTO MUSIC.
JANET NEW SONG SOUND GOOD. NOT THE BEST OF THE BEST. BUT ITS DEF NOT A BAD OR A STUPID IGNORANT SONG.
VERY WELL JJ.
Thank you Trent. Preach it. I think this is a gem compared to a great deal of material out right now. This just makes you feel really good.
I Hate It. Janet and Mariah sucks as of lately
Whoever posted under TheSkorpion name need to stop. He just said that he LOVE this song on twitter. FAIL at the person posting under his name.
I like this song… go Janet!
I wasn’t expecting this..
i’ts very nice though 🙂
Janet CAN sing – just listen to BLACK CAT, SCREAM and one of her latest, MAKE ME. She has a damn good set of lungs.
Nothing
Janet Jackson (Why Did I Get Married Too Soundtrack)
There’s something I wanna say
Something that I’ve been holding back
Can’t let it go another day
Let me start by saying that
Nothing, nothing,
Nothing, means more than the truth.
And truth is that I realize, love is fading from your eyes
Don’t know how it came to this, but we gonna get it fixed tonight
Cus nothing, nothing,
Nothing, is worth losing you
Tell me what could the problem be, that’s got you drinking way too much
What could it be ’bout us
Don’t you tell me not right now, I can’t let it go
(I can’t let it go, no I can’t let it go, Oh nooo)
What can I do to help you see,
That there’s no need for jealousy or insecurities
I’ll do anything you want
You can even have the password to my phone
Because nothing, nothing
Should come between us
Trust in me
Trust in me
We should cherish every moment like it’s the last
Trust in me
Trust in me
If your issues is with trust, hear me when I tell you this
No one else has shared my love, no one else has had your kiss
Nothing, nothing,
Nothing, can make me forget.
(Noooo)
Forget that you’re a good man and I know that you’ve had it hard
Cus you’re more than adequate, you’re more than I wish for
Nothing, nothing,
Nothing, can make you any less.
Tell me what could the problem be, the past is something I can’t change
It’s a brand new day
Don’t you tell me not right now, I can’t let it go
(I can’t let it go, no I can’t let it go, Oh nooo)
We’ve got to fix this, fix this right this minute
Only pure love can calm the noise
Cus baby when we give pure love
Pure love will never come back to us void
Because nothing, nothing
Should come between us
Trust in me
Trust in me
We should cherish every moment like it’s the last
Trust in me
Trust in me
WOW DID THIS GUY REALLY JUST ADDRESS STANS?!?! WHEN HAS HE EVER ADDRESSED A STAN OF ANYBODY IN ANY POST?!!
THESE GUYS CONSTANTLY “HAVE” TO HAVE RIHANNA’S NAME SOMEWHERE…WTF IS WRONG WITH THEM?!!
IF U ASK ME THERE THE ONES THAT NEED TO#SITALLTHEWAYDOWN!!!
RIHANNA ADMIRERS JANET….ADDRESS THAT DUMB-ASSES.
THE F** U ADDRESSING STANS FOR?!?! EPICFAIL………
IF ANYBODY SHIIT TALKED JANET IT WAS BEYONCE STANS…EVER SINCE THE WHOLE”JOEJACKSON” COMMENT BEE MADE!!!!!
great song
Why are some of you people so hostile and mean? wow some of yall are cut throat, it’s a ballad for a soundtrack… The lyrics reflect the movie (relationships), she sounds great. I’ve always loved Janet’s voice she’s one of my favorite female singers, she can sing soft, s***, rough, angelic and she has range. She’s done a duet with three of the best male singers ever: Luther, Elton John and MJ… After 27 years of recording yall still talking about her music, she must be doing something right… Janet forever
BEYONCESTAN
YOUR NOT A REAL STAN OF QUEEN BEYSUS PUNK!
SHE NOR JANHOVA OR MOTHER LAMB (MARIAH)
MAKES SONG FOR UGLY PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO CANT GET A MAN OR WOMAN!
RIHANNA STANS DO TALK ALOT OF S*** ABOUT JANET ON THIS SITE AND ABOUT OTHER ARTIST ASWELL.
BEYONCE NEVER DISSED THE JACKSONS WHATSOEVER. THATS OLD AND HAS BEEN PROVEN THAT WAS TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT!
BEYONCE SAID SO MANY TIMES SHE LOVES MICHAEL AND JANET VERY MUCH!
MIKE AND JANET ALSO SAID THEY LOVE AND RESPECT AND IS A FAN OF BEYONCE.
I PERSONALLY HAVE BEEN A JANET FAN SINCE BIRTH, MY MOTHER IS A HUGE FAN AND MY VERY FIRST CONCERT WAS THE VELVET ROPE @ AGE 10 W/ MY MOTHER AND HER FRIENDS….SHES INCREDIBLE.
THAT BEING SAID, @ 21 I HAVE ARTIST THAT IM A FAN OF TODAY LIKE RIHANNA AND BRITNEY SPEARS AND I LOVE THEM ALL EQUALLY (BUT JANET SLIGHTLY MORE)
I HAVE HARDLY SEEN LOTS OF STANS OF RIHANNA ATTACK JANET….MORE SO THAN BEE FANS WHOM HAVE BEEN ATTACKING HER SINCE FOREVER AND EVERYONE ELSE AT THAT YET HE DOESNT MENTION THAT……I HAVE ONE QUESTION FOR THEM!!
WHY MUSTU POST ABOUT RIHANNA ALL THE TIME, WHY DOES HER NAME STAY RELEVENT HERE?!?! IF U DONT LIKE HER WHATS THE POINT?! I JUST DONT GET IT…MENTIONING HER IN A JANET POST WAS UNNECCOSSARY, UNPROFFESIONAL, AND SIMPLY ATTENTION SEEKIN #WHACK #ONETOTHENEXTONE
YOUR BLOG WON LAST LONG, MILK THE 15 MINUTES OF IT WHILE U CAN!!!
I love this song! Janet is singing again…Bring on the movie!
^^^^^^^
NO, BEE NEVER DISSED JANET (THO SHE KINDA DID) BUT HER STANS DID…THIS IS ABOUT THE STANS!!
RIHANNA NEVER DISSED JANET, SHE HAS ALWAYS SPOKEN HIGHLY OF JANET AND THEY EVEN CLICKED @ A CLIVE DAVIS PARTY, U CAN SEARCH THE PICKS.
IVE HARDLY SEEN ANY RIHANNA STANS ATTACK JANET LIKE BEE FANS #JUSTSAYIN
This is the first song in a few years where Janet actually seemed to put a lot feeling into it. There was an emotional connection and it does not sound like every other song on the radio. I am glad she is back to R N B slow love songs and for the moment has left the dancing to the kids.
Oh and comparing Bey and RiRi to Janet is a bit unfair. You cannot compare students to the teacher. Maybe in 20 years the convo would be more appropriate.
I’m on the fence with this one…
I really love that Janet has released a ballad this time around. It’s definitely a “janet” ballad, and she does it sooo well! What can we do to get “Nothing” to #1?! It’s been too long since Janet had a #1 single and I am totally feeling this song. SO smooth and velvet vocals. Great production. LOVE IT!
@ Ken Janet most recent #1 single was “Make Me” on the dance charts. Shes the first artist, male, female, or group to have #1’s on the dance charts 80’s 90’s 00’s and 10’s.
Jeezus f****** Christ! if Janet is such an icon, why do the writers of this blog have to compare her to an artist they think is garbage? an artist that helps this site pay it bills??
@ SEAN2010…u really need to calm down, bursting blood vessels all over the place behind ur computer screen…its not that serious u crazy c*** – and yes this song is still boring to me, all ur ranting and raving and capital letters aint gonna change that, stupid mug
For those of you who are saying the song is boring have you even took the time to actually LISTEN to it? No, it’s not a dance song, but it’s a very nice song with GREAT lyrics and it works VERY well.
ADE
I DONT NEED TO DO S*** NOR AM I GONNA READ YOUR WHOLE POST.
WHY?
CAUSE YOU DONT MATTER S****. SIT YA FAKE WEAK UGLY ASS DOWN M*****,.
I like it. Vocals are a little rough, but not too much where you can’t enjoy the song. It does have a classic feel to it. To me, it sounds good enough to be a lead single for her new project. I just can’t wait to see her back in full effect and to see a Jackson on top once again.
@BEYDABESS (DA REAL ONE), i keep telling you, you have a serious mental problem & you need to seek psychiatric evaluation for that!!!
@HIHIHIHI, how did i know that your retarded ass would be all over this post. lol
@Dania, Kelis aint s***… when’s the last time you ever heard of Kelis being compared to BEYONCE, JANET, MARIAH Oh & let’s not forget, Mary J old ass… Mary might be up there in age, but her voice is powerful & she will sing circles, over circles, over circles over circles around Kelis… so STFU b****!!! Next!!!!
@ SEAN2010, Quit being an idiot… Stop puttis “SUS” after stars names as if they’re equivalent to Jesus or something… WTF, BEYSUS… you’re another one who needs psychiatric evaluation too.
All that ranting i did, i didnt even give my 2 pence on the song… I actually like it, it reminds me of the “always” song from the janet. album.
I like this new song. Pretty cool… 🙂
Love it
I’ve listened to that clip 8 times. I love it!
TRENT YOU NAILED IT!!!
THIS IS A GREAT M.O.V.I.E. TRACK.
I THINK IT TELLS THE STORY OF HER MOVIE CHARACTER
WELL…I’M REALLY ENJOYING THE SONG…IT IS CLASSIC JANET…THANKS JD
I love the song!It’s definitely a nod to ‘Again’..and it still retains it’s own charm,and fits in the mould of the movie completely!It definitely sounds like another # 1 on the R’n’B charts..and maybe the Hot 100 if it crosses over to pop and the downloads are decent.
that saying..this really is THE classic Janet sound..bring it on girl!!ur THE Icon!!
“Nothing” is a grower (in a good way). Everytime I listen, I begin to love it more and more. Janet definitely pushed her vocals on this record. Looking forward to the new album.
Its a cool song …
A Very mature and beautiful track, the more you listen to it , the more you feel the depth of the emotiona in the lyrics, a real breath of fresh air, honestly, everything sounds so generic right now that for her to put out something with some truth and maturity in the lyrics and vocals that touch your soul, it makes you exhale and say ‘thank you God for the dying bread of REAL artist!
JANET IS QUEEN !!!!!!
Aww… It’s a nice song.
Funny I was just listening to her Velvet Rope album last night. 🙂
THIS SONG IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!BRAVO JANET JACKSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope her album sounds like this, finally Janet.
Amazing is a stretch people.. SIT DOWN! It was just O.K., and barely @ that.
Janet (the TRUE icon) comes with a great new song and u and Sam still have to get a Rihanna dig in? Really Trent, do u guys need the hits from the fans and stans THAT bad? Anyway, as a Janet stan since the 90s, i was hoping she would go back to her janet/Velvet Rope era sound and she did with this one. I likey! Way better than that song with Pitbull she has that surfaced earlier this year. And im sure the full song (minus the radio interruptions) will be better than this. There is hope for my velvet Rope Part II lol!
Great song Janet!!
THIS SONG IS REALLY GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i love songs like this from janet….this shows how great she is and why she is such an icon in the music business!!!
CRACKISWACK
YOUR A CRACKNEY FAN!
YOUR USED TO A F***** UP VOICE IN 2010! SIT YA ASS DOWN PUNK ! YOUR OPINION DOESNT MATTER NONE S****!
I’m quite the HUGE Jan fan myself and even have danced with a [female] Jan impersonator in Vegas and I have to say after Velvet Rope, no, All for You some of Jan’s songs have been hit or miss for me [mostly due to her not writing her own songs anymore]. However, “Nothing” is quite beautiful and I have to agree that it is pure Janet. and Velvet Rope era sounding Janet. I have HIGH HOPES for the next project.
i like it specifically because it is “simple.” i was getting really fed up with all the slick production in the last few hits. people kept saying, “oh, she’s trying to sound like (insert artist who was inspired by janet here).” enough of that. on this track you can hear real humanity, and i love how brittle and sad she sounds. the delivery is perfect. why would you power your way through something as delicate and fragile as this? it isn’t always appropriate to boom the cannons. here a whisper conveys sensitivity, and i for one applaud her for taking a step away from s** mama routine for a change. bravo. i love it.
I LOVE THIS SINGLE
Please stop comparing Rihanna to icons, it’s not necessary! Wait 20 years then we can talk about it, if Rihanna still is relevant… But comparing Rihanna to artists like Mariah, Mary, Whitney, Janet (all the icons), hell even Beyonce or Christina Aguilera (who’s coming back to slay, hopefully) is not justified at this point.
To ThatGrapeJuice: I don’t see any point in trash talking Rihanna in every article it’s really unprofessional. I don’t even like her that much, but all the hate won’t make her fans like her any less, so stop. If you keep doing this same s*** you will lose readers.
About the song: I LOVE Janet! I love the simplicity of the song and the lyrics. And for those who wants a club banger for her albums first single, I completely agree, but a club banger certainly wouldn’t fit the movie’s time at all. Applause for Janet who’s still standing and ready to come back after a tough year…
I like this song. It does remind me of the old Janet. It’s sad though that people are into these so called “club” songs with lyrics that have no meaning. I honestly like hearing songs like this, but I guess shallow people like hearing shallow , catchy lyrics. That explains why most songs in today’s age that reach #1 are some of the dumbest songs ever.
@Sean2010 I totally agree with you! Rihanna fans I must say are completely delusional at times. Rihanna has a “strong goat” voice? Since when did a goat voice sound good? I’d rather listen to Janet’s “baby” voice anyday. I hope that she goes back to the old Janet (the one that didn’t take off her clothes). Tiffany Evans and Jojo are sooooooo underated as young artists. They have ACTUAL talent.
@Trent or @Sam, I don’t like Rihanna either, but stop bringing her up when you are talking about TRUE icons who actually have TRUE talent. She doesn’t belong in the same post as TRUE icons. And plus you know her fans will go off on you as usual. But I guess you guys like it when they come on the post, as they bring drama.
Actually @Sean2010, I only agree with your comments about Tiffany Evans and Jojo being better than Rihanna. Janet Jackson is not a Goddess, but she is an icon, no doubt.
JANET IS THE QUEEN!!!!
Those who are hating on Janet, you have good reason. Janet is the baddest chick and deserves your hateration. I am a bit confused by some of the comments about her vocals. We have become a society bent on the screaming banshee like Beyonce, who to me cannot sing but screams in a forceful verbrato. I agree with several of the commentators in which the vocal stylings does put you in the mind of MIchael Jackson’s “She out of my life”. Her vocals to me are beautiful and maybe I have excellent hearing but I dont have a problem hearing her on her songs. Maybe the haters are deaf from listening to screaming heffas like bitchonce. Also her previous hit “Make Me” vocals were very clear and beautiful. If you could not understand her on that then yeah yo ass is deaf, go get your hearing checked.
I love this song!!!!!!!!!!! U can hear the emotion in her voice.
But who is the bajan model hating on Janet??? Can someone tell me who it is???
The Bajan model being referred to is Rihanna boo
I like, this song is one of best in years. Hopefully lots more people will get to hear since its associated with the movie. The problem is not that she isn’t make good music, they are just not promoting them properly. I may be a Janet stan but I really believe that “2Nite” and “Enjoy” could have been huge hits for Janet.
I agree with the author, janet Jackson is the only female artist in being Grammy nominated in almost all major fields and categories, Rap, Rock, R&B, and Pop, in fact she wrote Black Cat and her performance voice is as high as the strings of the guitar, The idiot who said that Janet can t sing is just ignorant and must be a 12 years old ignorant schooler
