Janet Jackson is renowned for blazing the stage with her iconic dance moves.

But, here at That Grape Juice, we’ve long appreciated her vocal prowess too.

Currently wowing audiences at her Las Vegas residency at Resorts World, the legend is pairing a stellar spectacle with a spotlight on her voice.

Case in point her powerful performance of ‘I Get Lonely’ from 1997’s ‘The Velvet Rope.’

Jade has unlocked the visual for her brand new single ‘It Girl.’

Crafted by the songbird alongside Cirkut, Lostboy, Lauren Aquilina, and J Hart, the pulsating track brings both the BPM and a resonating message.

Lyrically, the track explores her personal experiences in the music industry as well as the layered and oft-complex reality of life in the spotlight.

Following on from the likes of top 10 hit ‘Angel of My Dreams’ and ‘Fantasy,’ Jade said of ‘It Girl’:

“It Girl is the c**nty little sister to ‘Angel of My Dreams’. There’s still so much that people don’t know about me, so I was eager to surprise people and prod the bear a bit. I have to write about my experiences in my own melodramatic way. I’m not going to sugarcoat it.”

To amplify awareness of ‘WHAM’ even more, Baby took to ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’ on Tuesday (January 7) to gift the live treatment to the project’s fan favorite track ‘I Promise.’
