“I don’t care who’s around…”
From The Vault is back this week with an “after midnight” special. Pop royal Janet Jackson‘s 1993 hit ‘Any Time Any Place’ is this week’s selection.
Aptly, the track was the fifth single released from the artist’s eponymous fifth LP ‘janet.’, the smooth and sultry jam was yet another Jimmy Jam, Terry Lewis and Jackson concoction and saw the singer thematically pushing the envelope with a voyeuristic setting.
Like all singles from the said album, the track was a monster hit, peaked at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and most importantly spent a then-record breaking 10 weeks at #1 on the Hip-Hop/R&B chart.
Its Urban success was due mostly to its remixed version courtesy of R. Kelly who was on a critical high with his ’12 Play’ album during the song’s time of release.
The Janet jam was brought back to the public’s attention in 2012 when Kendrick Lamar and Drake sampled it for their Hip-Hop smash ‘Poetic Justice’ – in reference to the movie Jackson starred in with legendary rapper Tupac.
For its music video, Jackson adopted a literal approach and can be seen engaging in sensual play with her neighbor.
Despite causing quite the controversy at the time for its explicit content (which these days could arguably be deemed tame), the visual – like most Jackson clips – offered a message. This time about the importance of safe-sex.
Directed by Keir McFarlane, a special edit was made for the R. Kelly remix with additional scenes.
************
Though we really respect and enjoy the more demure approach Janet is taking with the ‘Unbreakable’ project, we do miss “baby-making-songs.” Indeed, much like Marvin Gaye, Ms. Jackson has the ability express even her dirtiest fantasies with an unparalleled air of class and sophistication.
Whatever the case, we’re glad we have Damita Jo back on the radio and the charts again.
Vocal wonder JoJo brought her unique ‘tringle’ campaign to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon this evening.
The three-song single includes the track ‘When Love Hurts’ – which the 24-year-old performed alongside funky house-band The Roots.
Watch the Atlantic Records songstress soar like only she can below…
Adele may be bulldozing records left and right with new album ’25,’ but she’s not resting on her successes.
Proving that she’s taking no prisoners, the British belter has embarked on a high-visibility promo campaign – which this week brought her to the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
The masses were wowed with her stirring showing of ‘Water Under The Bridge,’ and now the show has unleashed a special rendition of ‘Hello.’
Backed The Roots and host Fallon, the 27-year-old soared. The spin? They collectively played classroom instruments.
Say ‘hello’ to slayage below…
When an album dominates in the way Adele‘s ’25’ is, it becomes a buffet of sorts when promotional performances roll around. So many great songs to choose from!
Thankfully, the Tottenham bred talent is blessing each stage she touches with something different.
This evening on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (which she appeared as part of a US “lock-out” deal with NBC), she and her band rocked out to one of our favorite cuts – ‘Water Under The Bridge.’
Watch Adele belt out below…
Justin Bieber visited ‘The Tonight Show’ this week and had ample reason to smile.
The pin-up’s new album ‘Purpose’ is on-course for a definitive chart win over rival act One Direction and by a (relative) landslide.
Led by ‘What Do You Mean?,’ the comeback project is set to sell 470k-490k Stateside (to 1D’s 420k) – which, if achieved, will mark the largest first-week debut this year.[Editor’s note: Of course, until the Adele avalanche hits next week].
Not resting his laurels, Bieber took to the stage on the Jimmy Fallon hosted show to perform current single ‘Sorry’ – which has, thus far, peaked at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. Call it a comeback.!
Watch JB do his thing after the jump…
Tinashe was playing approximately no games as she set ‘The Tonight Show’ alight with a scorching performance of her Chris Brown-assisted new single ‘Player.’
The first single from her forthcoming sophomore project ‘Joyride,’ the tune is enjoying quite the warm welcome from radio and streaming alike. Now, in a bid to shift that warm welcome to a boil, the burgeoning diva brought her stage-blazing antics to America’s living room in what comes as her ‘Fallon’ debut.
Wonder how she fared? Find out below:
