The Queen of Pop Janet Jackson reigns supreme!
‘Unbreakable,’ the diva’s first album in over seven years, will officially open at #1 on tomorrow’s edition of the Billboard 200 – it has been confirmed.
How much did the ‘No Sleeep’ led set sell to achieve the feat? Find out below…
According to Hits Daily Double, the LP – which reunites Jackson with longtime collaborators Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis – sold 106,000 in physical sales and 112,000 (when factoring in streaming).
The numbers place Jackson atop of the coveted US tally by quite a margin; indeed she sold almost three times that of nearest competition – Tamar Braxton‘s ‘Calling All Lovers.’ That project shifted 37,000 copies.
Check back tomorrow for the full rundown of Janet’s chart home-run, as well as detailed insight into the week’s other releases.
With a long-overdue nomination in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame announced for Jackson this week too, it goes without saying that she has ample cause for celebration!

Congrats to Janet!” Dammmmmn baby” & “night” slay me intensely! And even though Tamar’s album didn’t sell as well as it deserved, congrats is still in order because her album is STELLAR. Happy for them both. Two talented female black musicians!
Yaaasss honey those and Daydreaming and 2 b Loved. HELL THE WHOLE CD!! ????
Those are my 2 favorite songs on the album too!
Wow. I don’t know how she did it with no promo and on her own record label. J.Lo couldn’t even do 40K and Mariah couldn’t do 50k. Congrats Janet.
Ha!
The concert and singles, which included a video was promo….
She cheated!! 30k of those weren’t actual sales

TRANET: QUEEN OF ISLAM
Why must you be so negative???
Because she is dyying you know how people get when theyre on theyre death bed, lets pray for her
Islam is religion of god, ignorant. Why are u so stupid and insult god.
Um EXCUSE ME!?!?!?!? Ignorance is bliss child and your comment just displayed a whole lot of it.
I know ISLAM is a religion! But that’s not the way the comment i replied to was referring to it as! He She or whatever it is called Janet TRANET!!! QUEEN OF ISLAM!!! Trying to make her seem less the the other ladies mentioned in the comment. But be happy sweetie. Those few that liked your comment are as ignorant as you seeing as they themselves could not see the disrespectful jab at Islam and Janet that lesser made. #BYEFELICIA
OMG Im so sorry!!! I thought your comment was directed at me LMFAO!!! I totally misread the email notification hahaha!!! Gosh i feel like such a jackass right now. Smh
Janet Jackson is The Blueprint, and you’re the queen of g********.
I thought she was the Queen of Secrets with all her whispering.
Whispering all the way to #1 and with sold put tours. Can u hear me or shall I lower my voice.
H** u so lame! lmao
@Arrington…hahahaha…that was a great read…well played
Leave it to the petty peasants to try and ruin a good thing…lol The reach is real ! Still can’t seem to grasp the magnanimous euphoria that is Janet Jackson…!
u got me busting out laughing at uni during seminar. lmao.
everybody looking like tf?
Queen of records in a digital era..
And you, the Queen of Idiots.
Congrats Janet!!!! Still doing your thang 30+ years in the music industry!!!
Madge must be hollllering on her world Arena tour…….
Yes she is…mad cause she could NEVAH honey!!
She has Rebel slay sold 10k more
@Taylor Tori Azalea – If Rebel Heart only sold 10K more than Unbreakable, then that is SAD for Grandonna Ciccone because she has done dozens of interviews, promotional performances, appearances, desperate acts of “controversy” to remain relevant and to keep up with Beyonce, Katy, Gaga, Taylor and Rihanna — and Janet has done none. Instead, she has allowed her name and legendary status sell her new music and not trying to keep up with the divas she paved the way for.
Madonna had 116000 pure album sales, 121000 counting streaming, and is on a extremely successful arena tour, while Janohva plays on smaller venues, the only one hollering must be you when presented these cold hard facts XD
Janet’s laughing her ass off now that she has #1 albums in the 80s, 90s, 00s and 10’s. How were the 90s for Madonna? Still waiting on that #1 album?
You sound really stupid! Just because those venues say ampitheater, that doesn’t mean that they’re small AND Janet did EVERYTHING via social media! Madonna had a week-long special on Ellen AND performed at award shows.
How much promo did Madonna do and contrast that with the promo janet did?
Those figures are b.s.! They didn’t include pre-sales orders!!!
Yes they did stupid.????
No they dont sslut
Damns Tamar flopped to the pits of hell
GOOD!!!!!!!! SHE IS SO FUCKKING ANNOYING
Did you see on “On The Real” when certainly LONI miss quote facts, stating that Tamar’s album went #1 when clearly she sold so under 40k. I guess Vince didn’t but out copies this time to see if she could actual sell.
LAWLZ!!! Leave her alone!!! Hahaha
QUEEN OF POP????? That’s how you know Sam wrote this post
Yup queen of pop
Congrats to Janet!!
I have said this before and will say this again.. Whoever suggested that Tamar push her album back needs to be fired!!! Not only did she miss the 2016 Grammys deadline but she will not have a #1 album.
ETA: Also the person that thought it was a good idea to go head-to-head with Janet needs to be fired too!!
nah they couldve sold the same amount esp based on tamars numbers on her first album ud think she ‘d sell the same or more with all the shows/promo. Tori Kelly had crazy promo and only sold 65k which is weird how can her Kelly Rowland Brandy Jene Inko all sell about the same albums 1st week?
Sorry 2 hear that 4 Tamar. Ain’t gonna hate on J. Gud 2 c those #s 4 Janet.
Congrats Janet over 30 years in the music industry pulling 100k plus isn’t easy and you did congrats mother!
Queen Janet did no promo and got #1!!
Let the haters hate hunny. Kii!!
Tamar’s Calling all lovers sold more then Ciara’s Jackie tho
No! My first name ain’t baby, it’s Janet, Miss Jackson if ya nasty! Well, looky here, she didn’t even have that much help from the new wave of payola (adding FREE streams too actual sales to help these new school artist from flopping), and still managed to shift over 100K in PURE sales. Ooooh, I’m so in love with Motha JJ right now. Listen, the ghetto’s want “Zaaaaam Baby” to be the next single. But, I really want her to appeal to a more global audience with “Take Me Away”. But, we shall see. Congrats, Miss Janet, throb! Boom Boom Boom Until Noon Noon Noon, THROB!
———————-
Tamar yo lil album cute too, but it’s Janet’s time. BYE
I know right? Take Me Away would be fcking amazing as a single, and I can just picture the video. Janet driving down a big ol’ highway with the beach/sea to her left as she’s singing (along the lines of Someone To Call My Lover but a more coastal feel rather than desert). It’s such a road trip-y song. She could really sell it with live performances of it too, I’m thinking a more “band” feel as if she’s the front-woman. It would be something completely different and fresh for her! So pleased she got so many sales and a #1 without ANY promo whatsoever! It just proves that all the haters are mad she’s still successful and RELEVANT!
For people who smear the name of god. He,ll remember you one day.
100k in pure sales…dope! the 100k’s by the young popular artists are largely composed of singles sales

#InductJanetJackson
Has anyone seen Demi Lovato’s new music video for Confident? It slayed me in every way. Prepare for world DEMINATION
Confident’s iTunes position should tell you the answer to that question lol.
Don’t shed Selenators in a bad light. Lovatics supports Selena Gomez and Selenators support Demi. REVIVAL IS AVAILABLE ON iTUNES another #1 For the Selena.
Dammn Baby!!! She did it again! Congratulations Janet…well Ms Jackson since I’m nasty lol.
abouslte kii! is that all she sold for this to be her comeback album and she’s been gone for 7 years? this numbers are terrible
and stop acting like these numbers are slayage! yall acting like she doing taylor numbers. This Arabian bed wench sold 100,000 not 1 million copies in the first week. i guaranteed she didn’t even sell 10,000 over seas
obviously her billionaire husband/pimp bought this records cause nobody outside of the old folks home and this blog is checking for her jig saw face ass
Damn your p***…. Well sorry for ya!
Congrats to Queen Janet. Pulling these numbers as a seasoned artist is not easy.
She did this without pandering to the youth, writhing around on a cross, faking accidents on stage, a week on Ellen, every tv show from here to Timbuktu, calling a family member n****, and having Beyonce, Katy, Nicki, etc, in a video treatment she stole from Taylor..
All that extra was worth only 10k more? Janet is the winner in every way that matters..
No gimmicks like that serpentine of old, yet the same numbers!!
LMAO!!
#UNBREAKABLE
b**** shut up. the only competition she had this week was tamar ass. if she would had released this same week as taylor,adele,drake or beyonce she would not be number 1
If that was the case Drake came out the week before.. He would’ve stayed at number One.. The Weeknd would have as well and Fetty Wap.. Stop f****** hating
bych i died…lol
Kii!! 🙂
she also sounded like a grown man on half the tracks too kii
Speak on it sis….. I hope her album is Better than Selena’s
@Duffster Confident will slay I’m sure 1 week left and Demi will show some of these how It’s done
I Love a Lovatic, i wonder why Selenators try to shade Demi even when we support them.
Rebel heart was leaked for two months and it was Madonna consecutive release after 2013. unbreakable botched face had hella hype from the black media and it was her first album in 7 years. these numbers are terrible no matter how you spend it. she will not be certified gold
The only female artist, besides Barbra Streisand to have #1 albums in the 80’s, 90’s, 00’s and 10’s!!
Da Queen!!
Yaaaaaaas…and her first name ain’t baby…it’s JANET…MISS JACKSON if ya NASTY!
http://giphy.com/gifs/panic-at-the-disco-janet-jackson-miss-pfgp4Hz6aPvFe
🙂
what is janet winning at kiiii. despite all that hype and promo claiming this is her comeback album she still didn’t sell more than 300,000 copies and will not see gold certifications
anwyays i hope this disastrous era comes to end soon so that this Arabian bed wench can go back to sucking off the members of ISIS and take her dumb ass stans with her
Wow! You’re quite the hateful little whatever, aren’t you?
book mark me. this album will not see any certifications world wide
With your demeanor…I’m sure sum1 will…eventually.
Janet is also the 1st artist to achieve #1 singles in the the last 4 decades(80s,90s,00s,10s).
David Queen
More like Da Queen!!
b**** stop lying. her last hot 100 number 1 was in number 1. if you’re including sub charts like the R&B charts than madonna should be including to for topping the dance charts
Dumbass check Billboard’s records! I said #1 period!! Where did I say hot100 only!?
Learn to read you stupid bittch! Seething so hard it’s blinded your dumbass!!
Stupid ass who represent girls who Janet created Janet the first artist to have #1 songs in 3 decades on billboard hot 100 and reign over Madonna poor excuse of an entertainer ass so quit sucking your d*** and being a busy body how desperate Madonna is and her album still didn’t have stable position on billboard 200 so don’t come for Janet you won’t win
It’s good numbers for Janet’s standard I suppose… But isn’t it less than Rebel Heart and Britney Jean first week numbers? Yikes…For Janet it’s a success though. For Britney and Madonna it’s a flop, because they’re bigger then Janet and have higher expectations to do well.
Rebel heart was leaked 2 months in advance.
Yeah Rebel Flop was leaked out of my sausage lol. Congrats to Janet!
and these are terrible numbers for a comeback album. she hasn’t released music in almost a decade. MIMI and madonna album sold way more than 100,000 k on their comebacks
Madonna’s last album was a comeback stupid. She was gone for 4 years. Shut up!
And Mariah sales have been on par or less than Janet since that ‘comeback’ album, like 10 years ago.
And Janet sold way more this go round so what’s your point?
Really comparing sales from 2016 to like 2006..
Keep reaching for those stars!! 🙂
#Mimi&JanLegend
#Gimmickdonna
Janet released on her own indie label with NO promo. Madonna performed on every show that would have her and still couldn’t make the Hot 100 AND on a major label with a major label roll out. There is NO reason why “Living for Love” should have missed the Hot 100.
Janet is the first and only artist in history to produce seven top five hits from one album.
#RhythmNation
bookmark me this album will fall out the top 10 next week
Look at these seething b******. If Madonna and Britney are bigger stars, shouldn’t they be selling more than the low brow, Janet Jackson?
Lol the excuses..
@Anastasia girl I wouldn’t even bother arguing with them. There just as bad as a paranoid Schizophrenic let them fight and argue with themselves why even waste your blood pressure.
#IgnoreThemTrolls.
tranet also has the lowest album sales out of her contemparies
Aaliyah Dana Carter i got to check you…look janet is almost 50 been in the game 42 years…her selling this much on her own label and concert sales going all to her. She did no promote in a regular way…which gareantees the album will sell over a long period what indie artist sells this much let alone the owner of her label…its jackpot like she sold half a million eqivelent. Her new era is about regaining fans and praise and selling tickets…she getting all the share. Unlike madonna and others a s**** to her label her tour she got to pay her label
lol. Madonna keeps 90% of the proceeds from her tours ( which she has the two highest EVER for a female artist) tranet doesnt even have a tour thats grossed over 100 million
Umm Janet Jackson hasn’t been in the game 42 years??? She released her first album in 1982. Making her career span 33 years.
tranet has never had a uk number 1
Madonna had ‘leaks’, and sold those ‘leaks’ and like 4 more songs on iTunes the following week.
It was her leaking the ish for promotion. No one was interested in stealing those stale ass songs. GTFOH!!
LMFAO!! Thanks for reminding me of Medusa’s ultimate gimmick this era!
Janet still wins with no gimmicks!
winning is having your album certified. is discipline even gold in the us? lol
that’s why the person who leaked it is in jail right girl
Receipts @Molly or you can go stand in the corner!! LMAO!!
Youse a lie!! 😉
@tranet troll….. I’ve never seen a troll speak this much truth
Making it in america only matter for the uk u not hot until u make it in america janet is ww even before the superbowl
she had NO competition this week. the only big artist who released was tamar LMBOOOOOOO. let he release a album the same week as taylor and she won’t make the top 10
ki why would MAdonna be pressed about not having a number 1 album in the 90’s regardless her album still sold more than tranet. MAdonna is also almost a billonare and she didn’t need to become an ISIS bed wench to become one
Oh hunty…Madonna is just another elite puppet. She may be WORTH a billion dollars but I can guarantee she doesn’t have access to anything close to that.
Seems like 100k is the in thing now
.
congratulations Janet for nabbing #1 on BB200
Shout out to @SuicideWatch and @Moldy both of y’all here with your fake ass accounts, is a testament to how much y’all love the Queen.
She matched Grandma’s sales without gimmicks and sold 4 times more than a certain ‘relevant’ artist. Lol.
Hi BITTCHES!!! *Waves* 🙂
Madonna is ranked by the Recording Industry Association of America as the best-selling female rock artist of the 20th century and the second top-selling female artist in the United States, with 64 million certified albums.[6] She has sold more than 300 million records worldwide and is recognized as the best-selling female recording artist of all time by Guinness World Records.
he was ranked at number two, behind only The Beatles, on the Billboard Hot 100 All-Time Top Artists, making her the most successful solo artist in the history of American singles chart. Madonna became one of the five founding members of the UK Music Hall of Fame and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in her first year of eligibility.
tranet is the only legend to not have a diamond certified album
The Janet album was a diamond album. Next
Haters smh so sad to be y’all while she getting y’all life time earnings stfu and watch an ICON WORK B****** y’all mad or nah blood
these numbers are terrible 🙁
thats stupid…have taylor or adele type artist try to come out when janet released any of her multi platinum album…remember janet was the first female artist to debut at number one
No shade to janet but you sound really stupid right now. First i don’t why you must bring Adele up. But if you must know. Janets best selling album is at 20 million Adeles best selling album which is only her sophomore album is pushing 30 million. Also i thought Whitney Houston was the first artist to debut at number 1 on June 27, 1987?
Damn. Erica Campbell, a gospel artist, opened with like 32K her first week. This industry is crazy. I was hoping Tamar would do better numbers but she did produce an amazing body of work and I’m sure this album will be Grammy nominated as well. Congrats to Janet. I hate that 100k is the new celebration number.. But these are the times ppl. Janet’s album will eventually scan gold over the next year or so. Hopefully.
Thank you. It’s a mess but where we are in the present for most artists period.
I love how people say Tamar wasn’t competition for Janet, she sold over 100,000 the last run. That was only a few years ago..
She had like a 75% drop in support in that short span.. It rough out here.
the way these janet stans are celebrating you think this album sold a million copies first week lolllllll. yall are so delusional. No matter how many excuses you come up with this album was a flop for a comeback album. She had no competition
@Molly who are you staning for now?
Lmao girl give it a rest with all these random user names popping up. You are a sad creature..
You’re absolutely right. Delusional Janet fans — 106K isn’t s***.
112k (just name recognition)>>> 121k (being a a try hard slutpuppy)
The winner is Jan not that creature with no self respect..
janet should promote her album on butch so she can kill two birds with one stone. fix all the plastic surgery that made her look like the grinch and promote this flop album
the great fLOPPPPPPPPP
Madonna has white privledge madonna is not as talented as janet…her stats are great but with her lack of talent those stats dont help her look good. Plus she released alot of s*** although janet been out longer and is younger…great madonna has big stats but no real talent…ok janet won cause she did enough and made better music to be in the conversation because janet is the rightful queen of pop…and madonna will always be mad when janet is mentioned…in the little mermaid ursula was the imposter ariel was lock away…that sums it up
LOL better music?!?!? maybe post 2000. 4 of madonnas albums made rolling stones greatest albums ever compared to janet 2. LOL and NOBODY outside of the black community considers Janet the queen of pop. Madonna has always been refereed to for that title
Thanks for your racist rubbish opinions. Please run along to your clan meeting..
Look Madonna can have the Queen of Pop title that’s her’s for the taking but Janet is overall the Queen of Music that’s just more grandiose and it fits with her versatility music wise you can’t say that every Janet album sounds the same unlike Madonna’s and to Janet’s brother the late King of Pop Michael Jackson to him his sister is The Queen of Music.
the Rebel heart tour has grossed 20 million dollars so far. do we even have tranet number
@S******
Keep on track. Janet got a #1 album did rebel fart go that high..
Janet sold the same 1st week without gimmicks.
When will Medusa?
SLAYYYY Queen of pop
isn’t janet jackson still denied from the rock and roll hall of fame LOLLL
Isn’t Medusa still rolling around in stage rubbing out that dry, stale pussie of hers singing lies about how it’s still wet like holy water??
You people go see Medusa for the circus act she is..
People see Janet for an actual performance!!
Know the difference..
Its never the critics that count cause critics only wanna talk
and the only MAJOR publication that ever called tranet the queen of pop was vh1. the same vh1 that shows ratchet ass basketball wives and 16 t*** and pregnant LMBOOOOO. EVERYBODY considers Madonna the queen of pop.
And you are still bother by Janet the Queen of Pop Jackson..
Go to a Madonna fansite if you want people to call her Queen of anything but gimmicks.
There is the door>>>>>> 🙂
Fusetv call her the pop queen Madonna the queen of falling off stages nobody on tv said she’s the queen oppose to the king of pop Michael Jackson
LMBO Rbel heart was not a comeback album. she had just released DMNA in 2012 and came back froma VERY sucessful tour. a comeback is when you had a flop album ( like half of janet discography) and slay with the next one
And Madonna had her superbowl performance at that time so she should have been semi successful but your acting like she still goes multiple platinum in America!
Bittch shut up. Madonna was a flop all though the 90’s while Janet and Mariah were in her neck.
If not for the super bowl Janet would still be stomping that ancient bittch out..
Medusa has always sold well at concerts. People love a freak show with granny tease, I guess..
Don’t forget about Whitney she outsold Madonna as well.
Oh Yeah! All the main chicks was above her ass. LMAO!
So funny how the hagdonna fans wanna rewrite history…
these tranet fans need to work on getting janet debut and sophmore album certified LMBOOOO. didn’t both those albums flop HORRIBLY in a time when music was selling like hot cakes? they arent even certified world wide
@Anastasia BIitch why do you keep saying I’m Molly
.
For the second and last time I’m not Molly…. I’m not gonna say this for the third time just like I did not say “I’m not Rihnavy” for a third……
Ok @Molly. No phuck off…
JANET JACKSON’S GLOBAL ALBUM SALES
‘Janet Jackson’ (1982) 0,5 million
‘Dream Street’ (1984) 0,5 million
LOLLLLLLLL mind you these were reina time music was selling. only gold world wide hahaha
Album sales were high in the early 80s. Your a liar. Also those albums were r&b pop. No one even played black artist on pop radio or MTV at that time, but Michael..
Why don’t we talk about The 90’s when music was REALLY selling. Why was Madonna stomped out by Janet and Mariah?
Do tell?
Janet Jackson’s voice is a flute in an orchestra of trumpets and trombones. Unlike her ’80s coequals Madonna and Whitney Houston, Jackson had little success at the start of her career, especially given the expectations that came with her last name: Her first two albums sold badly and even worse — the type of performance that today would result in a terminated contract.
And alanis, and Katy.. there have been many artists who’s 1st couple of albums didn’t sell well. What is your point?
Janet’s 1st albums were boring and didn’t have her voice because Joe Jackson her to have a subdued little girl image.
She was a young teenager with bubble gum pop albums, in a time of funk, and disco records.
Shut up. She still here and that makes you mad. She still not going anywhere, so get over it.
Sis don’t argue with idiots like that just give them this link http://goo.gl/q3x2Jb
post the rest of this article that praised Janet..u tried it! kii
Congrats to Janet. The haters are seething as if their fav at this age could do these numbers after nearly a decade of inactivity with little promo. Janet sold off her name, she is a legend. Deal with it. I’m ready for Selena to claim her second #1 album with Revival. This is honestly her best album, give it a listen even if you don’t like her. Lol @ Demi stans randomly trying to push her generic try-hard top 40 reject songs! The girl is so desperate to be relevant but it will never happen.
No need to shade Demi….. Revival is everything tho
Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Prince, Sade, Tina Turner, Anita Baker, Lionel Richie, and Whitney Houston…wow….not only were they beautiful, s***, classy, super talented, boundary pushing and versatile, they all showed in the 1980’s that black artists could not only be super successful…they could be the BIGGEST ARTISTS on the PLANET…as an 80’s baby, I didn’t even THINK there was a barrier for black artists…all I ever saw was PURE SLAY lol…Thriller was the first album many 80’s babies ever remember listening to…we’re talking about the biggest selling album of ALL TIME…Michael was like a cool big brother for many of us…Control was a declaration chile…an album full of potential HITS…Janet was like a beautiful cool big sister! Michael & Janet help change the way black artists were seen, heard, marketed and promoted FOREVER…they help set a new standard by showing the music industry that more than 3 singles could be released from one album and multiple songs from one album could go #1 and Top 10…they basically created the EVENT music video, with multiple videos released from a single album…Control helped create New Jack Swing…Janet signed not one, but TWO huge record-breaking music contracts…I could go on and on chile…so congrats to the beautiful Miss Jackson…you’re a sweetheart…and slaying for 4 decades! #1 is the ONLY place for you…

YASS!!! I love it!!
LMAO at the meltdowns!!!
That Tranet troll and Sage need to be placed on s****** alert
I thought ya’ll said she won’t do more than 50K first week.
Here is something for the seething haters
http://goo.gl/q3x2Jb
No need to shade Demi….. Revival is everything tho
Tamar deserves better…..
Micheal must be turning/rolling/seething in his grave…… His trans bro/sis embarassing his last name like that
As if that Tit-slip wasn’t enough
Molly you really should stop projecting that t***** ish.. Your fave and Gags pop up immediately if you goggle transvestite..
Don’t do it bish.. 😉
# f****** 1!!!!!! Slayy and she did it independently
Her brother Micheal sold 50k more with Xscape a year ago. 156k to be exact. Embarrassing for Janet she couldn’t outsell him!
Then Madonna should be equally embarrassed since she is the Queen, no??
Keep seething..
Congrats, I guess. I more interested in seeing the following week numbers.
Yes!! The 2nd biggest Janet Stan (after Beyonce) is here to lay some education on y’all haters. This is Janet’s 4th decade of #1 albums. Y’all doin the most to minimize her sales but now so desperate u bringing up her first two albums from the 80s to drag her. Lol. You know if u have to go back THAT far to find a fault QUEEN got u bothered as hell.
I think Beyonce was a fan back in the day. Has she even acknowledged Janet’s return?
Oh back in the day as in a year ago when she dressed up as her for Halloween? Biggest Stan Ever.
Oh a costume…lol cute
Receipts:
https://www.google.com/search?q=beyonce+rhythn+nation&oq=beyonce+rhythn+nation&aqs=chrome..69i57.9775j1j4&client=ms-android-verizon&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#imgrc=HHxAe9J2rNcjpM%3A
She dont have to Beyonce aint s***
I remember the costume sweety. It’s a Halloween costume. You say she’s the biggest Janet stan, yet she hasn’t even given Janet an IG post since her “return”. Lol Not denying that she is a fan, but nothing more, nothing less.
Aint it though? Its called making iconic moments. When u see something and recall the era its from immediately and know that SHE did that. JANET has MANY of them and Beyonce being her biggest fan knows that. So I don’t know why YOU don’t know what your fave does.
All of that is cute or whatever but that still doesn’t prove how she’s Janet’s biggest stan. Lol I wonder did Beyonce buy her new album. She should have bought an extra 400k to support her Queen. #noshade
Screaming at an IG post being the standard for being a fan. Like BEYS words throughout her career are erased because she didn’t post it on Instagram.
“We learned it all, from Janet”
– Beyonce
IG is not the standard but Beyonce is very private and expresses her feelings, art, and pictures through IG. You would think if she was such a big fan, she would leave a post, album link or something. She didn’t even get a “welcome back Janet”. Lmaoo BTW Janet is a fan as well. “Beyonce is very very Talented”????
http://youtu.be/hiLrVHZ4O5c
Anyways Beyonce knows who the real queen of pop is. She wants to still be relevant, PoWERFUL and topping touring lists WW.
.
” I felt like I wanted to follow the footsteps of Madonna and be a powerhouse and have my own empire and show other women when you get to this point in your career you don’t have to go sign with someone else and share your money and your success,”????
Of course she is! Who wouldn’t be supportive of the artist that they helped create? Kii!!
Btw I love Beyonce but y’all haters need a lesson in MOTHAS impact. And I’m here to do just that.
Thanks. Once u get dragged to the point of making irrelevant posts the conversation is over. NEXT!
Janet didn’t help create those VOCALS and Bey’s talent that even your fave recognizes. Beyonce was probably inspired more by her dancing and stage presence, to eventually go on and have one of the top grossing tours of all time. So thank your fave for inspiring my fave to be better.????
.
BTW you say Janet has impact but she only debuts with 100k.idgi lol oh well.
Where did u drag me? I only pulled out receipts. You say Beyonce is Janet’s biggest “Stan” yet all u can find is a Halloween costume and a statement she made twenty years ago. Lol girl bye
Ok. I said I was done but apparently critical thinking isn’t in your wheel house. U acknowledge everything I said and STILL ask how your fave stans for Janet. If we’re stans because we battle it out on a blog to lift up our faves wtf is it called when someone takes the stage and declares to the world that they learned everything from an artist, sings one of that artist songs in a tribute to them, and then 14 years later dresses up as them for Halloween?
NOW I’ll take my foot off your neck. You’re welcome.
I usually don’t write on these boards. I usually stop by and read all the comedy. But, I wanted to offer my insight. I adore Madonna, Beyonce, and Janet and have cherished all of their music in different ways. They each have helped me in my life in some way so I am thankful for their ballads and dance tracks. Now… any artist (ROCK, RAP, POP, SOUL, etc.) who can emerge from the shadows after a 7 year hiatus (with promo or without promo)and manage to the debut their album at #1 deserves some respect. My goodness…that is extremely impressive! It shows the power of brand and consumer loyalty to an artist. Janet is a strong brand. This will be true for any artist that can manage to be around after 4 decades. At the end of the day, what lingers on in our hearts and minds will not be the sales of an artist but the Quality of music. I wish continued blessings and success to all artists known and unknown.

Beautiful…your comment is everything 🙂
Awe, Thank you very much. 🙂
The hatin h*** mad, lmao Queen Janet is the blue print
No one is mad at 100k..the delusion. Congrats on the number 1 album even though there was no competition. Lol
Well Tamar was the competition its just that Janet smashed her and made her look like she wasn’t lol
LOL be real. Tamar competition? she isn’t a album seller like that
Your mad if you weren’t you wouldn’t have to justify that your not.
And you wouldn’t have that name that describes you to a tee. 🙂
You do know that Drake released a joint project the week before Janet and Fetty Wap as well.. Hip Hop is HUGE right now and they could’ve easily stayed at number One over Janet’s album– but they didn’t. So YES she did have competition – the Weeknd is everywhere right now and he could’ve beat Janet as well but he didn’t . Just say congrats to an ICON and leave it at that.
Congrats to Janet! Tamar
Deserved so much more her album is great but her promo was terrible and they should of kept the release date at September 11!
The Grandkids and LAMES were talking crap all 200ps decade. Now who got the last laugh? Ms. Jackson. Inde, all on her own with the fans. #JanetsTeam
When will her peers this decade? When will CiLessor? When will JHo? MooRiah? Grandonna? 30 years in the game. #30YO
Tell me, tell me now
Boy do you like that? Boy do you like that? Boy do you like that?
I, I, I know that you like that, know that you like that, know that you like that
Yea, yea, yea, yea
Cause I did that, yea cause I did that, yea cause I did that
When I’m stickin’ that ASS out, when I’m stickin’ that ASS out
Let’s get it!
.
Besides the WHOLE “pop” album lol, “I Bet” this is one of your favorite joints to get good BURN feeling. (cardio day)
.
You’re welcome 🙂
All Hail The Queen!!!!! Love you Janet!!!
All I have to say is congrats to Tamar on debut in the top 5. But anywho I’ve read alot of comments and so far there are a coupl trolls on here acting extremely pressed and screaming about how Madonna sold more. So f****** what the difference is Madonna has a label backing her, Janet doesn’t she has her own label so basically Janet is her own backing minus BMG her parent company but still she has her own label so she is the first artist on her Rhythmn Nation record label to have a number 1 album and that is very impressive many of these artists are slaves to these record companies with the execs telling them what to do and only go home with a small percentage. Janet doesn’t have to worry about that she’s her own boss and she hasn’t released an album since Discipline in 2008 the only other artists that I know in the R&B realm who was on a major hiatus and was out longer then Janet is Sade and she was out for 10 years and came back and sold with impressive numbers and she didn’t promote either she just went straight on and tour leaving nothing but her name to sell her album and Soilder of Love went straight to number 1 so don’t give me that bull about so and so didn’t have competition because Sade was going up against this generations artist. If the consumers want to hear real music that has substance and mean something then they will buy it and it has the means to sell and be at the top slot I congratulate artist such as Sade, Janet and many others whom stay true to themselves and true to there formula of original music which tends to win overall to me artistry, originality, foundation, true form, and there legacy speaks in higher volume then gimmicky I wished Madonna stayed true to her self, but I guess she was the whole entire time because if Controversy wasn’t attached to what she does then she wouldn’t be able to sell a damn thing, Congrats to Janet and giving us fans back the former her that we missed for so long and making new fans along the way.
career ender does not approve this novel
Yes, people may not want to point it out, but there are some vets who just simply follows the trend. You aren’t in your 30’s anymore. It’s time to act your age. So I too take my hat off to the veterans who stayed true because in this day and time, you have to be strong minded as an artist. If not, you’ll just be another trend. and there’s proof of that sooo… lol.
And you know I just spoke the truth but people want to say I was writing novels when I was just stating facts thanks @Lake for siding with the ones who know the true art form of music and artistry.
Someof this b****** cannot stand to see aback female Icon continue to break records and make history! Congrats Queen Janet!!!
LMAO @ the haters….Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! They are holding razor blades in their hands and ready to slit those wrists. Queen Janet hasn’t done ONE interview, hasn’t performed on ONE show and still debuts at #1. 4 decades…Let me repeat 4 consecutive DECADES of having at least one #1 album. No one can see her except Barbra…(speaking of, Barbra slays every b***h in the game, no shade…2 time Oscar winner, multiple multi platinum albums and hits for 6 decades…Madonna is nothing compared to her). Now y’all are mad at Janet because she keeps raising the bar and you are scared your fave will never reach it. They were never going to reach it anyway. Yes Janet. This is her year. R&RHOF nomination, BET Icon award, #1 album and a successful tour. You can’t dim her shine….BOOM!
Youz a fool fo dis Janatic! (sigh) I mean for real tho …… lol. She has em seething right? smh. I for one am ECSTATIC!!! It’s Janet, you can’t expect anything less from her. She delivers. I’d like to know what type of goncha or cush some of these was dummies on (and I dont even smoke) to think that she wouldn’t scalp?? Exceptionally well may I add lol. But Yes, it’s Janet Bish. Deal
Yes Erie! When I saw this was the main topic, I knew the comments would be Meltdown City. LOL. They can’t take her. Nothing they can do about though but sit and look stupid when those charts come out next week and her name is at the top. 7 #1 albums. That is just insane. Especially because she had to fight her brother’s huge shadow to do it. Let the little whiny b*****s hate while I spin Unbreakable again.
Aaaaaye!!!!! lol
.
#Unbreakable
LOL Yes!
And to think it’s Janet’s 4th decade of a number 1 album round of applause to her and her and the group Chicago are leading in the nominations for the Rock and Roll Hall of fame on the fan page so yes Janet is Winning (in my Charlie Sheen voice) 2015-2016 is her year.
Mess at this entire post.
Congrats Janet! Expected 80K max since she had absolutely no promo outside of what, BET. Most of you should be proud to since the predictions here were like 50K.
@ rosie this post is not only a mess… Janet is also a mess, I mean your fave managed to outsell her….. that’s messed up
@Molly the real mess is when a ‘has been’ out sells your fave by almost 5 fold in he 4th decade..
Lana is not of the same generation dumbass.
Doesn’t Megan Trainor outsell Madonna, in the here and now?? Hasn’t Megan sold more of her albums in America, than Madge sold of hers WW?
Your are among the dumbest bittches to walk this earth..
We heard you. You think these sales are bad(the irony). Stop repeating yourself, you surly baboon!!
You can leave now. Message received dumbass!
*album
** meaning Megan’s 1st and Medusa’s latest.
Ooops wrong reply section
No I got the right dumb bittch! LOL!
And this in on the back of No Sleep. Just wait for the BurningUp video. Janet stayed true to her sound, unlike Madonna and Mariah that hopped on the IN now producers and the IN now artist for features. And no, J.Cole isn’t in the IN crowed, if JJ was pulling a Madonna or Mariah, it would had been No Sleep Ft Drake or Fetty Wrap.
.
The album (at least the first half) is so good. DAMMMMNNN Baby sounds like a DJ Mustard beat, but it really sounds like a 80’s and 90’s R&B song. Should’ve Known Better is EDM, but in a dance music way, not what the others are doing now. She stayed true, yet current the RIGHT way. This is what I want from MooMoo. To be mature and stay true to her sound. She’s one if not THE best songwriter in the game, stop trying to act 21 and get it together.
DAMN! Mariah STAYSS on yo mind. Get off her p**** n****! This is about Janet Jackson not Madonna or Mariah Carey.
I love Selena’s new album REVIVAL will definately be #1. Go watch Demi Lovato’s music video for Confident. CONFIDENT Oct16
Mariah’s last album was brilliant. So stfu. These numbers are great for Janet. If radio plays Janet’s songs her sales will grow even more. She is iconic. For her to get number ones in all of these eras is nothing short of amazing. Hate all that you want to. Lastly, Mariah’s last album sold over 50k. We won’t compare MC & Janet because MC has “TEOM” & “E=MC2”. So that’s that.
Madonna has a certified album from all 4 decades though lmao
Madonna inspired the controversial images around the globe to be free!
Janet inspired the art of music videos, choreography.
Both inspired women, to kick down barriers that only men could do. They pushed the enevelop in their music, and on tours!
Both are not strong singers, but strong entertainers.
Janet showed the industry that black women could be mega stars.
Madonna showed the industry that white women with little talent could be mega stars.
Get over it ladies and gents!! Madonna and Janet are mega stars! They cannot leave their homes like normal people. They are both legends!!!!
biggest flop to debut at number 1
Yay janet… I don’t understand how only 6,000 streams but whatever.. If britney or beyonce sold 110k lawdd
Coming into this era, the only thing I wanted her to deliver on was the music & she did that on all levels. The fact that she was able to get her well-deserved 7th #1 album is icing on the cake. So proud of her. 😀
Janet is such a boss, no promo just walking through the airport looking fly on top no JD he is know on a BET reality shows trying to ketch up strippers child support. .. man that dude really f’ked (shakes head)
Seriously? You b****** are celebrating 106,000 in sales?
When an album can still move 1.287 million copies in its first week, as did Taylor Swift’s “1989,” Janet sh!t the bed.
Really, someone born in 1989, is competition for someone who’s 1st multi platinum album was 1986?
Hello @Molly you idiot. Just by the dumb factor, I know it’s you.
Does Madonna, Beyonce, Mariah, etc, selling as much as Taylor?
Exactly.. Shut up idiot …
Some ppl know nothing about music yet continue to comment on sales SMDH. First off, Tamar….Fire your damn team! Second, Janet album includes pre-orders, but not the ones from her personal site (you dumb asses). As for any artist pre orders refer to albums sales that were made to the general public on a specified date. Website sales are tricky as they must go through a verification process before being counted and ALL individuals who purchased must have received their physical copy (which also need verification. In other words, many of you haters will be very upset when pre sale website numbers are made public…….prepare yourself now
I’ve always thought those numbers exclude preorders from her website. Good to know that her numbers might actually be higher that what was reported by HDD. Janet keeps on winning!
Wait so we’re comparing sales of Taylor Swift to Janet’s. What! B**** that’s what Taylor Swift suppose to be doing. Janet did those #’s for 20yrs straight. You expect a 50 year old to continue making sales of that capacity like in their prime. Girl sit down. Janet is not even trying, no promo, nothing, just word of mouth and the internet that follows her and she still got her 7th #1 and 7 weeks at #1 on the R&B adults cart, with a sold out workd tour. You peasants will always be pressed about the Queen. B**** deal with it!
