Taking a break from tour rehearsal, Janet Jackson made an appearance at the flagship store launch of Alexander McQueen Boutique in Los Angeles yesterday. Different is definitely the word for this ensemble, but I must say Ms. Jackson did pull it off rather well.Labels: Janet Jackson
It would appear Janet Jackson's stalled 'Discipline' project is set to be given a renewed lease of life. There are murmurings that this remix of album cut (and supposed new single) 'Can't Be Good', courtesy of Jamaican star Red Rat, will feature on a re-packaged version of the LP.

A better view:
Not the best video quality, but still a good indicator as to what to expect from her upcoming live performances. She was nailing that choreography. This needs to be a single at some point.

Pop superstar Janet Jackson was snapped arriving in Japan early this morning. The singer is over there for 3 days to promote her current album 'Discipline', which debuted at # 1 in the US upon its release back in February. It's one of the few times Janet has been seen since recovering from a serious bout of the Flu, which halted the US promotion of the record. Upon the completion of this stop, it's expected that full blown promotion for her anticipated tour will commence.Your thoughts?

Check out this newly christened Official remix of Janet's 'Feedback'. This version features verses from Jermaine Dupri, Busta Rhymes, Ciara and Fabolous. It's nearing four months since the debut of the original and I still have it in heavy rotation. This remix is pretty solid too.Labels: Janet Jackson
With the Easter break etc, there has been a succession of 'slow news days' as of late. So I thought now would be a good time to introduce a new site feature I've had in mind for a while now. Set to be a once weekly feature, 'The Best You Never Heard' will showcase great songs that aren't known (as much as they should be) to the masses. This week's edition features Diddy, Janet Jackson, Craig David and Keisha White...Diddy - Special Feeling (ft. Mika)
Lifted from Diddy's 2006 effort 'Press Play', this uptempo 80's throwback cut is perhaps the best track I've heard from him as an artist. Not even Diddy's lacklustre flow can take away from this top notch production.
-----------------------------------------------
British R&B songstress Keisha White served up her best effort yet back in 2006 with her cover of Joan Armatrading's 'The Weakness In Me'. Sung beautifully, it's a shame the track didn't garner the attention it truly deserved.

For some reason unbeknown to me, Khia is still running her mouth about the Janet Jackson 'So Excited' fiasco (I call it that, only because she's making it into one). According to the self-appointed 'Thug Misses', "Janet's career will never recover" for how she 'done her', adding that "she'll never be Mariah".
Yes, the song should have been the first single. It wasn't, so she needs to get over it. She's only making herself look more pathetic with every rant she makes. SMH...

With her latest assault on the charts 'Discipline' now sitting comfortably at #1, Janet Jackson continues along the promo trail in support of the project, this time stopping by Jimmy Kimmel Live. The interview, which aired yesterday, saw Janet speak about the new album, her family and career, as well as chipping in on the running gag about Jimmy (the host) and Ben Affleck.

During Janet's set on Good Morning America yesterday, she performed her new single 'Rock With U'. The perofrmance didn't air on the telecast, but wascaptured in its entirety by an audience member uploaded to the official GMA site. The choreography was overly on-point; this performance really has me liking the song a little more.

After a seemingly slow start, Janet Jackson's promotional campaign for her new album 'Discipline (out now) is really underway - she's everywhere. The singer, 41, features on the cover of the latest issue of Ebony magazine; I must say, she's balancing her sexy and classy well in all of these covers/shoots, as of late. Labels: Janet Jackson
Following her mini-concert on Good Morning America earlier today, Janet Jackson performed 'Feedback' at MTV's TRL (boy, does it feel weird, but good to say that). What can I say? Janet killed it. The energy levels had been cranked up from the GMA performance, crowd were hyped, the band were on-point, choreography, everything! Watching this back really has me feeling Janet can really make one of the biggest comebacks in recent times. Awesome.
