    the only artist in history to receive grammy nominations in 5 different genres. rock, pop, hip-hop, rap and r&b. janet jackson is as diverse as they come. it can't get any better than her.

      Yeah she said as a teen she was a big fan of Motley Crue, Poison and the like. She obviously knew what she was doing here. I don't think any other pop artist besides Janet or Michael could've pulled this off. Especially to the extent of hard rock/metal fans liking it. We will _pounce_ if a crossover comes off as pandering or inauthentic, which is probably why few attempt to dip their toes in the genre to begin with.

      ​@@virgilwyatt4632 Okay somehow the second half of my comment is MIA. Weird, here's the redux...
      As far as someone firmly in mainstream pop...it's hard to imagine. Like, Madonna or Paula Abdul couldn't do this. You can just tell, they don't have it in them. Cher might. I can't seem to gauge her. I just see a game show mystery box. I'd say the closest to maybe doing it well would be Tina Turner or Bonnie Tyler. Vocally, no problem. I just question if they could write it. This one isn't just good, it's appropriate, lyrically. And I'd bet it happened naturally, she just wrote what she felt. I like "Escapade" but if this song had the same subject matter, it wouldn't gel. I think with Tina or Bonnie we'd probably get something along those lines at best and it would just seem disingenuous. I'd love to hear them do a metal cover. Especially Tina, I could see her getting up on stage even with something super-heavy and just blow it up!

    Janet is one the best singer/dancer to ever exist. Black Cat is fire, the energy it produces, captures your body and you can't help but move to the beat. Before you know it, you feel enraptured by it caught up in its grasp. You feel powerful and you feel like you can take on anything. And when they hit you with that guitar solo. You are headbanging to it. Janet this one of the best songs you have ever done. Female singers take notes this how its done.

      She probably wishes that too. It's been said for years that Janet (and to a lesser extent, Michael) would've rather pursued hard rock/metal if left to their own devices. But being part of a pop establishment like the Jackson family your path is somewhat predetermined, especially with Michael and Janet being the youngest.

    For the album version of "Black Cat", most of the guitar lines were played by Dave Barry, including the intro, main riff, and a memorable thematic solo. Barry consequently became Janet Jackson's longtime touring guitarist. John McClain, A&R executive for A&M Records, provided the slide-guitar part, while Jellybean Johnson played the funky guitar part that punctuates the album version of the song. Although credited on the album, Jesse Johnson provided a guitar solo that was not used for the album version, but is featured in each of the remixes.
    The video edit of "Black Cat" features Nuno Bettencourt of Extreme on rhythm guitar, while the 'Guitar Mix' features Vernon Reid of Living Colour.

    I remember her performance of this at the 1990 MTV VMAs and fell in love with it. Less than 2 months later it went to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and marked the first time that any artist had #1 hits from the same album a year apart (she topped that when Love Will Never Do Without You hit #1 in early 1991 giving her #1s fro the same album in 3 different calendar years. Rhythm Nation 1814 is imho a very underrated album -- 4 #1s, 6 top 2s and 7 top 5s (she likely would have had an 8th top 5 if A & M had released State of the World as a single).

    One thing I've been impressed by in music is Janet Jackson's versatility. This song was a departure from her previous work and she killed it on this metal track. The late Lemmy loved it so much that he wanted to record his own version with Jackson, but his label, Sony Records, nixed that potential collabo.

    This is my favorite video because I'm in it! :) Right after the guitar solo. I called in sick to work to go to the video shoot at the old Met Center (where the Mall of America currently stands). It was such a fun experience to be there and all the anticipation waiting for the video to come out to see if we had made it in. I did, my friend did not and she was pissed! 😂

    Black Cat"
    All the lonely nights I spend alone
    Never around to love me
    You're always gone
    Cause you're hangin out
    Breakin' the rules
    Oh the man has come
    Looking for you
    You're a rebel now
    Don't give a damn
    Always carrying on
    With the gang
    I'm trying to tell you boy
    It's a mistake
    You won't realize
    Til it's too late
    Don't understand
    Why you insist
    On ways of living such a dangerous life
    Time after time you stay away
    And I just know that you're telling me lies
    Black cat
    Nine lives
    Short days
    Long nights
    Livin on the edge
    Not afraid to die
    Heart beat
    Real strong
    But not
    For long
    Better watch your step
    Or you're gonna die
    You're so together boy
    But just at a glance
    You'll do anything
    If given a chance
    Scheming, plannin lies
    To get what you need
    So full of promises
    That you never keep
    Don't you tell yourself
    That it's okay
    Sick and tired of
    All of your games
    And you want me to stay
    Better change
    Makes no sense to me
    Your crazy ways
    Black cat
    Nine lives
    Short days
    Long nights
    Livin on the edge
    Not afraid to die
    Heart beat
    Real strong
    But not
    For long
    Better watch your step
    Or you're gonna die

      Alise Thompson Both of them aren't very musical. And Madonna would totally kick ass in dancing. She practices dance moves, old and new, for hours every day and she's 7 years older than Janet.

    • @sergiocabezuela9713
      @sergiocabezuela9713 9 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      +Phillip Daniel Janet has proved in the past as well recently in her concerts that she can dance stronger, sharper and smoother even if she's 7 years younger than Madonna. Watching her technical dance routines in her music videos and concert footage is more than enough proof she's way ahead of the rest. Now, don't get me wrong, I was also a huge Madonna fan growing up and still to this day listen to her past work. Janet was and still is a force to be wreckon with when it comes to her dance skills. ,

    • @billrandolph5375
      @billrandolph5375 9 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      +Phillip Daniel uh, no. Madonna may have practiced dance moves, ect...but, in her videos, as well as in concert, she has YET to display much of it. Janet trained under THE BEST performer/dancer there ever was, this guy...hmmm, what's his name.....wait for it...MICHAEL JACKSON......get over it...Janet ...not only is superior to Madonna in performing, she also writes many great tunes.....

    Because Janet and Michael have a lot of the same on mannerism I sometimes feel like I'm watching Michael from the Dirty Diana or Another Part of Me video. It's also because of the outfits. Two amazing sibling performers.

      +Letissia Scott Especially during this time. MJ wore the same pants, shirt and boots and his hair was longer. Couple that with those "looks" and snaps of the head and every other body part, it really is like watching either one of them. Janet brought the house down with her first albums.

    There will never be another Janet Jackson. She was completely unique. It's a gift. Even Beyonce, as good as she is, will never measure up to Janet Jackson.
    Because Janet was not only a great singer and performer, she was also a good actress.
    Which Beyonce isn't good at. Acting.
    That's why she will never measure up.

    Raise your hands in the air if you were a kid in the 80s and 90s and were late for school at times because you just couldn't leave MTV alone. Or recorded her videos on the VCR and hitting pause and rewind trying endlessly to replicate the choreography and still failed. Personally for me, Control & Rhythm Nation 1814 are my two favorite Janet Jackson albums. Janet Jackson was In Control of both of these masterpiece albums.
