Much like their joint album ‘We Don’t Trust You’ is currently dominating the Billboard 200 with the biggest first-week sales of 2024, Future and Metro Boomin are watching its headline-grabbing single – the Kendrick Lamar-assisted ‘Like That‘ – mirror that success on the Hot 100.

Time flies, but the truest gems shine on eternally.

So, with Janet Jackson‘s criminally underrated ‘Damita Jo’ celebrating its milestone 20th anniversary, what better time than the present to salute one of its many high notes – ‘I Want You.’

Co-produced by a then-rising Kanye West alongside Jackson and her longtime collaborators Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, the doo-wop-inspired cut was serviced as the second single from its housing album.

Renowned for her high-octane anthems and their accompanying videos, Jackson drove in a markedly different direction with the track.

A romantic serenade, the song saw Jackson profess her love for her boo.

Its lush visual was lensed by Dave Meyers and saw the Pop Queen navigating her way to her man – striking that trademark smile throughout. The clip features a cameo from Jackson’s then-partner Jermaine Dupri.

Much like the ‘Damita Jo’ project (which opened with one of the year’s biggest first-week sales), the dark cloud of the Super Bowl 2004 fiasco unfortunately clipped the wings of the release. Indeed, with limited TV and radio play, ‘I Want You’ peaked at #57 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Fast forward to today and with the climate and narrative of the episode firmly in Jackson’s favor, we hope that more of the masses dive into the brilliance of the ‘Damita Jo’ album, era, and visuals.

Although Beyonce‘s latest album, the March 29-released ‘Cowboy Carter,’ is seeing its acclaim outpaced only by its gargantuan first-week streaming figures, there are still some critics who aren’t exactly welcoming of the diva’s foray into Country.

Resistance faced from the era’s onset (from music lovers, fellow celebrities, and even music programmers), some of the genre’s staunchest enthusiasts have voiced their displeasure with Bey’s decision to line dance onto the music format’s charts – much to the dismay of some big names.

Having already received thumbs up from the likes of Garth Brooks, Maren Morris, Dolly Parton, Candace Owens, and others, now Kirstie Kraus, June Carter Cash‘s daughter Carlene Carter, and the legendary Nancy Sinatra have join the list of stars praising ‘Cowboy.’

Although Ariana Grande continues to enjoy the sweet success of her latest album, ‘Eternal Sunshine’ (glowing atop the Billboard 200 for a second week while its former Hot 100 chart-topping single, ‘We Can’t Be Friends,’ remained in the latter tally’s top 5), her dedicated fans – affectionately called #Arianators – have far from abandoned her hits of yesteryear.

A recent update from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) supports that notion as some of her most popular titles have seen notable certification upgrades.

Doja Cat has never been afraid of speaking her mind.

And that’s exactly what she did today (March 30) on a live chat addressing the response to her new single cover.
