Isn't It Sad Janet Doesn't Get Nearly As Much Credit She Deserves?


Recommended Posts

She's a much better performer than Madonna imho, but she doesn't have the support to get tours as big and doesn't release music as regularly anymore. Most of the new gen just remember her from that Superbowl incident. But, many artists have been deeply inspired by her music, her performances she's done, from Britney to Beyonce to Rihanna, even Gaga.

 

Not to mention no matter how hard people copy, she still slays ALL our faves at 45 (her age here), NO EXCEPTIONS. The decline from the 80s and 90s in terms of performers is real. :moorangu:

This performance is amazing - I am a massive fan of Janet - her Velvet rope album is 10000000000 times better than any music released this year - and she always executes her moves to a T

Nothing personal but i don't like her music. I think of her just as Michael Jackson's sister and i respect her, but i just can't like it :( And i don't really know why. The only song i LOVE is Feedback  :xf9:

You should watch her previous tours, those were incredible (especially Velvet Rope Tour)! They were obviously an inspiration for Britney, too.

I also love Velvet Rope, I like it a lot better than Ray of Light :D

That's okay, most Britney fans don't like if cause she has a different sound from Brit. Her music is more Beyoncé. :yaknow:

Her performances are incredible though, think Primeney x2!

Janet is absolutely amazing! Her influence on Britney became so obvious when I was watching Janet's performances.

 

I wish she would start taking notes again :crying3:

 

I was thinking the other day how the ending chorus of Work Bitch should've had choreo more like the beginning here (but a bit faster)

I was never a fan of hers or liked her music (not really my type) but I do respect her very much :tbh: . She left a huge trace on the music industry and she was an inspiration to my dear :Godney: , she sings well, and she performs well too :yay1: She does deserve much more credit than Madonna tbh, Madonna's vocals are insanely weak, all of her songs are sang in one key tone, her dance moves revolve around yoga, and showing how flexible she is, she's barely even dancing or having dance moves (remember matm? all she did was roll on the floor splitting herself lol) while Janet actually dances. Oh well i guess she had enough , glad shes happy now.

This is the legend Britney took notes from :crying3:

 

I love this performance, too.

I wish we had Primeney back for Vegas so she could have a similar number, where her backup dancers wear her iconic outfits.

Madonna is actually a trained dancer, but Janet is a much better dancer.

 

Try this tbh :yes:

I wanted to post that one but I picked the other one because her outfit looked like something Primeney would wear. But yes, the one you posted is so beyond flawless. God! I LOVE Janet and Michael and I love their dance moves. <3 <3 <3

I will forever  <3 Janet.  She is an undeniable pop music legend and is still cited as a major influence on many, so I don't think she's necessarily forgotten.  I find her greatest hits and style of performing much more compelling then Madonna's easily. Her Velvet Rope tour is one of the best concerts, I dare anyone try to skip a single number while watching.
