SOHH Soulful got a chance to sit one on one in the studio with Jermaine Dupri for an exlcusive sneak preview of Janet Jackson's upcoming cd 20 Years Old. Yeah, we shitted in our pants too...
Despite what may have leaked, Janet's first single off the highly anticipated album is "Call On Me", a duet with St. Louis rapper Nelly. Yes... Nelly. (Y'all know Janet don't do collabos like that, so get ready). The mid tempo joint samples the legendary S.O.S. Band's "Tell Me If You Still Care", which was originally produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis in the early 80's.
Janet serves up soft, feminine vocals just as ambitiously as Mary Davis did on the original. Nelly sings/raps with Janet effortlessly, each trading places over an updated beat that's definitely big enough to bump from any trunk.
The single is scheduled for radio on June 19th, but check SOHH Soulful regularly. Later this month we'll have exclusive new visuals of Ms. Jackson that'll make you lose your mind [ the body is sickening-- think Janet in lime green bra & panties, think Janet in frilly black lace, think lots of skin, think DAMN SHE LOOKS GOOD FOR 40]. And if we are lucky, maybe we'll even have an early listen of the track which is the first of many that will fuse the 80's sensibility, beats for the streets, the best of Jam & Lewis and the chemistry and fire of both JANET and Jermaine.
I myself, am most looking forward to a track called "So Excited". It's an uptempo hard dance track the reminds me of Herbie Hancock's "Rockit". There is a lot of that scratching and mixing that made a heavy mark on urban music in the 80's.
20 Years Old is a celebration of an artist and an era, but it's far from being outdated. The smell of this new Janet tells that the best is yet to come. So in the meantime... reminisce with us:
[Janet Jackson - "Nasty" - courtesy of YouTube.com]
Janet and Nelly? I don't know about that!
I for one, am tired of all the JANET JACKSON leaks. Especially when they aren't accurate. That whole battle plan to build anticipation for an album drop is tiring. Plus, having NELLY on a collabo is not exactly a treat for me.
I would have never paired Janet with Nelly in my mind, but on the low, that might be tight. Im thinking of the original song and the tone of it, along with the tones of Nelly and Janet's voices.... yo, that might really work. Keep us posted, SOHH.
*yaaaawwwnnn* I'm so sick of her leaks, that probably wont even make it on the album anyway. The sneak a peak thing is getting very old. Drop the cd already, im sure its gonna be tight but im sick of all the hype.
THEN DONT COME ON HERE SLIMGOODY! U ARE A TRUE ASSHOLE FOR COMMENTING! LIKE JANET GIVES A FUCK ABOUT WHAT U THINK!
damn rocky is fine as hell!!!!!!! screw a dime piece, she's the dollar!!!!
Yo skinnyman, is caps suppose to make people think you hard, all it does is make me think you a lil skinny man, nobody gives a fuck about and wanna talk like you got big balls, you get the fuck outta here biatch! damn y u gotta make me go there today....u got sumthin nice to say about her say it, but let me do me.
SLIMGOODY U ARE A TRUE ASSHOLE FOR COMING TO THIS BLOG PERIOD! IF U DONT LIKE JANET THEN GET OFF THE FUCKING BLOG BITCH! YOU PEOPLE KILL ME WITH THIS SHIT! AGAIN YOU ARE A TRUE ASSHOLE FOR COMMENTING SLIMGOODY!
I'm wit you Slim Goody. Blah Blah. Its not like Nelly's bout to drop some new, unheard of flow or somethin. It's gonna be the same thing and I'll be surprised if he don't use the words "action" & "miss jackson" SOMEWHERE in his rap. =|.
Lil skinnyman, shut the fuck up! I may be an asshole for responding to your bitchass but what type of nigga are you, damn are you on the bitch payroll?!? I never said i didnt like her, i said im sick of the damn leaks. And again, whats up with the CAPS, you feel bigger now??????
Thank you for the compliment "OH YEAH!!!!!".
Lol. I din't think people clicked the links on the names. That's whats up. Get at me sometime.
^^^^^^^^
WHAT AN ASSHOLE!
SLIMGOODY ARE U A REAL BITCH? IF YOU ARE TIRED OF THE LEAKS THEN DONT COME HERE THEN DIPSHIT!! ARE U FUCKING RETARTED OR SOMETHING?!! U SHUT THE FUCK UP ASSHOLE-BITCH!!!
Let's be honest in the this whole "JANET" thing. It's all machine hype. This is not the woman who is going to be seen making charitable contibutions for kids in the poverty range unless it has to do with tax right offs or for PR. All of the Jacksons are a pop machine built sensation. Now I was told to use the right to for the right job. This is entertainment people, these IDOLS you so wondefuly worship care not about you until their comfort zone is messed with aka someone is falling off. So do yourself a favor if you get the chance to meet everyone you "admire" you may be in for a rude awakening and find out that they may be on your level or mostly below it. Fame and fortune are not the same. Everytime you buy that CD you are purchasing from someone who really doesn't understand not care for our generation. In closing Janet is a successful attractive lady. With that said I can't kick it with her on the music tip...hmmm she dates a black alien. Man you have to think twice about chicks with them ugly dudes and if she is just juicing him then it's all gravy baby. HOLLAR
AND DONT BE CALLIN MY COUSIN A BITCH CUZ THAT JUST PROVES THAT U ARE THE BIGGER BITCH!!!

No im not retarded but you obviously are, how long are you gonna sit on the internet and argue with a female, punk ass mark. Its a blog, i have the right to leave negative & positive comments, even though my shit wasn't that negative... if you not gettn paid for taking up for her, go get another hustle cause you sound dumb @ss hell, y your feelings hurt over what i said about another person, not you, nobody knows you....look bastard, find someone else to fuck with cause i can do this all day, well at least till i get off work, when i get home I have no time to argue with you fools.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Janet is a really nice person, havent u heard her speak, or listened to one of her interviews, she also donated money to the Katrina victims, so "you all up in her Kool-Aid and don't even know the flavor". And why would Janet have to use JD he has a 20mill contract with Virgin and she has a 90mill. Why can't she just like him for who he is why does it have to be about money???
That last post i made was directed to Charlie White.
BITCH AKA SLIMGOODY SHE IS MY COUSIN ASSHOLE SHE IS PART OF MY FAMILY BITCH! IF I CALLED YO MAMA A BITCH WOULDNT YOU GET MADD!?! I REST MA CASE HOE! ANYWAY Y CANT YOU CONCENTRATE ON FRYING THOSE FRIES AT MCDONALDS!!
yo little bitty man (a.k.a.) skinny man
u's a nigga fa real. Since when did people at Mcdonalds have time to sit on a computer all day dumbass. Your cousin or not, are you getn paid for the advertising??? I think not!!! like I said b4 nobody knows you, who gives a fuck if you're her cousin, I'd rather not claim being a part of that fucked up family if I were you. Look Bitch, shut the fuck up, you will never win this, give up, y arent you get'n psychological help already, i aint even mad at you no more, being in that family has to be hard enough for you.....
Lawd, slimgoody is really being attacked for having a different opinion ...after this comment obviously people are going to whine why did i come to this blog -- i gotta an email DAMN IT! lol anyway, Janet is good but I think it is wrap. after that debacle of a song that was released "The Weekend" even her fans turned on her. She needs to put her clothes back on, mature in her music and reinvent her sound (a new hair cut is not a reinvention). Trying to compete w/ 19 yr olds is not going to work ... that is why i like Prince and Madonna who realized they are not 22 and just make music, which still happens to reach number one -- doesnt sell like 1987, but who cares -- they made their mark. Janet is clawing at the proverbial walls of fame, which is making her look desperate ....... then Janet is NOT a R&B singer and Jermaine Dupri doesnt know how to work with artists who cant sing so her voice sounds more thin, weak and uninteresting.
Nelly is one of the illest in the game, millions of records sold, grammy wins....HOLLA!!
SHUT THE FUCK SLIMGOODY!!! YOU JUST SHOWED YOUR TRUE ASS-COLORS ON HERE!! BITCH I DONT SEE YOU HOE-ASS ON TV MAKING MONEY!!! ASSHOLE I ALREADY WON THIS E-BEEF WHEN I EXPOSED YOUR BITCH-ASS IN MA 2ND COMMENT PRICK!! IM DONE CLOWNIN YO BITCH-ASS SO FUCK OFF HOE!!
LIKE I SAID YOU ARE A TRUE ASSHOLE-BITCH IF YOU RESPOND TO THIS!
RESPOND AND YOU JUST MADE MY POINT ASSHOLE-BITCH!! IM DONE WITH YO HOE-ASS!
GREAT!!!! another puke song unleashed onto the world.....thanks JJ and a special thanks to Smelly! keep the shits, pardon me! Keep the hits comin! Please?
whoa! I will not stand here and let anyone praise Nelly and ignore the efforts of his cohorts, the ST. Lunatics...those guys put in work too....I am sure that they are apart of reason HH has Nelly in its world...I swear the game was missin so much until Nelly dropped his shit....and now we got 50 lacin us with all type of sizzlin new joints from his explosive arsenal....whew!!!

hahahaha! I'm still LM@O!
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
SMH
All kinda levels of wrongness going on up in here, LOL. Where's Mr Conway when we need some prayer? LOL
Stop it slim--we don't want no drama with a distant cousin of the Jackson family-he was probably on the bus wildin out when MJ got that not guilty pass.
All jokes though, I kinda stopped diggin Janet as much after velvet rope-all them loyal fans and her last album didn't do well.
I'm sorry thin mint, my fault that was negative too.
Okay...
Pleasure Principle was the shit!
She lost that Control weight, dog-she was a problem B!
Dig, Naj
Yall gone get me fired I'm laughing loud, people askin me whats so funny, i gotta go, my day went by quick as hell today!
Shout out to skinnyman aka thin mint aka lil man aka bitchboy!
Dang! Janet still got ya'll talking. This site is simply reporting the news...they let him/her listen to Jan's new single. NONE of us know what its going to sound like.
You need to stand up and pay your respect. How many "artists" have come and gone since Janet got on the scene? B%#@!es please.
You have the "haters" on here talking about Janet (why waste time posting on artists you don't even like) and making ignorant statments that they don't even know about. "Janet doesn't do charity?" That's B.S. "The Jackson don't do charity except for PR?" How the hell would you know? You can't have it both ways. Think about it.
The fact that we are still blogging about Janet Damita Jo Jackson, that this site and hundreds of others are aniticipating her album (positively or negatively)...all this after over 20 years in the music biz just goes to show.
JANET IS STILL IN CONTROL.
HEY!GUYS COME ON ,WE ARE ALL WAITING FOR JANET'S ALBUM TO DROP, SO LET'S ALL TRY TO GET ALONE .I AM READY FORTHE ALBUM TOO AND I AM ALSO GETTING IMPATIENT,BUT THE LONGER WE WAIT THE MORE ANTICIPATION THERE IS.UNTILTHE ALBUM DROP,LET'SALL BE COOL,ARGUING IS WACK!
AMEN!!
And to follow with that..
It is extremely impressive for someone to be in the music industry as long as Janet has been (20 YEARS!!). Beyonce, Ciara, Usher, ALL of these newbies...they still have a lot of proving to do. Janet opened the doors for people like Destiny's Child, and the Ameries,Britneys, and the Ciaras, yada yada...
When an artist can successfully make it past the 10 year mark in making a series of hits--not just "Nationally" folks, I'm talking GLOBAL here--then you can officially say you are da shyt. Every Album Janet has put out since Control has debuted at #1 (except Damita Jo, and that debuted at #2)That is SICK peoples! Another good example, "Somebody to Call My Lover" debuted in the U.S. at number 6. However, she was #1 in Asia, #1 in Japan, #1 in Europe and #2 in Spain. Some of these artists would die for money across seas. Janet is a GLOBAL power house. She could care less what America thinks of her single cuz someone in Germany is gonna love it...ya feel me? LOL WHUT! Janet has been in Control since "Control"...she knows the music biz, she's not stupid. This aint her first album...geesh...
whats happen motherfucker.
Okay, all yall gone on about your business back to work and save up yo dollas so you can buy Janet's single when it come out. You know you want it!!!
Janet is washed up and has been a talentless hag from day one...
Her vocal range is less than one octave and her voice is thin as paper. She has always had much less to do with the production of her music than one is told to believe...
She is now desperate and is going to sell out and put rappers on her songs just to get more radio airplay in the US...
GOD has spoken...
Also, responding to a post above, Janet is a LOCAL STAR...
DJ missed the Top 20 of EVERY album chart in Europe and only spent one week in the Top 10 of the Japanese album chart... And her hit albums never did much better than that overseas...
I cant even comment to the B.S. yall stressing. All I know is that my girl is on her way back and she is in Control and taking no prisoners. If you are tired of the leaks and all the hype fine don't go to these forums. But for someone like myslef who has been a die hard Janet fanatic since lets say "Dream Street" this is all I got until June.
I know that Janet's new single is gonna be off the hook. I also know Janet & Nelly working together is gonna be off the hook. To be honest I think Janet can work with anybody. So all you haters stop hatin' on my girl Janet. I belive this will be one of her best albums so watchout Miss Janet Jackson is back!!!! And she's coming back harder than evea'.
Yep. It's me again. I think Janet & Lil Kim and also Jennifer Lopez should work together, you know maybe make some remixes off Janet's new album. I know Janet Jackson & Jennifer Lopez will give Madonna & Britney Spears a run for there money.
Let's be honest in the this whole "JANET" thing. It's all machine hype. This is not the woman who is going to be seen making charitable contibutions for kids in the poverty range unless it has to do with tax right offs or for PR. All of the Jacksons are a pop machine built sensation. Now I was told to use the right to for the right job. This is entertainment people, these IDOLS you so wondefuly worship care not about you until their comfort zone is messed with aka someone is falling off. So do yourself a favor if you get the chance to meet everyone you "admire" you may be in for a rude awakening and find out that they may be on your level or mostly below it. Fame and fortune are not the same. Everytime you buy that CD you are purchasing from someone who really doesn't understand not care for our generation. In closing Janet is a successful attractive lady. With that said I can't kick it with her on the music tip...hmmm she dates a black alien. Man you have to think twice about chicks with them ugly dudes and if she is just juicing him then it's all gravy baby.
And in rebuttal she made 90 million when she was like 12 years younger. Last album flop, public polls going down in favor of new POP females and the fact that maybe she is looking for that Beyonce appeal. Monkey see Monkey do. No disrespect. She is a dynamic person but it just feels I don't know FAKE. Like the married man with kids who has a boyfriend...UGH> ANd that was fo AK
what the FUKK am I reading up in here??????????
Janet... is JANET. AN ERA IS UPON US... what other artist comes out and it becomes an ERA???? All these people talking about her vocal range and "senseless" taste need to check the facts, cause the facts are that Janet's been making classics since Control dropped in 86... and y'all muthafukka's KNOW DAMN WELL you were grooving along to That's The Way Love Goes, perming your fake ass weaves, and practicing your IF choreography in any mirror you could find. And BADLY, I'm sure. In her 20+ year career, she's had ONE album perform less than standards. So don't talk about her FALLING OFF when you know damn well Mariah, Madonna, Whitney, and ANY OTHER FEMALE ARTIST has at least TRIPLED Janet's number of so-called "flops". So back off the lady and pay some respect to one of the women that STARTED an entire movement that is STILL being immitated to THIS DAY.
To GOD:
Get your facts straight...
