Janet Jackson got some tracks up on her site for peeps to listen to. Check them out here.
Of course Sam from ThatGrapeJuice got it on lock for those of you that want the downloads.
Let me go on record and say that after one listen. "ROCK WITH U" is a muthafuggin hit. Janet went to the clubs and I love that. That song reminds me of the popular house song with the chorus that goes "feels like, the music sounds better with you.." it's by like the FUNKY GREEN DOGS or MASTERS AT WORK or something.... but whatever the case....
JANET THIS IS YOUR LANE BABY GIRL! OWN IT!
L.A. Reid already slid Rihanna in that lane as well, seeing as this is very "PLEASE DON'T STOP THE MUSIC". Stans that ain't hate so sit down. That's just an observation.
Aiight.... now give it up for Ms. Jackson.
Well done... so far. But as we know it's all about execution.
LUV is HOT!! Rock With u Is definitey for the clubs!! Feb 26 is D-Day
For some reason, neither song really blew me away...i'm gonna listen a couple times more and see if they'll grow on me
but so far, LUV sounds like the better song
Sorry soul man I have to disagree with these songs I have heard thus far are average to horrible. Hope the album has more treats than tricks. However Janet will always be an icon.
I love it
but so far, LUV sounds like the better song
^^^
A lot of peeps like LUV. It aint moving me yet. Maybe I need to see her pop and twerk to it first.
I like "rock wth u".........
Luv has The Dream written all over it - it sounds like his style. BTW - that's my fave out of the two but you're right - Rock With U is definitely a club banger, even moreso than Feedback.
I'm hoping this CD is a hit for her, but I still miss the Jam-Lewis-Jackson trio...
***still anticipating new album from Erykah Badu while listening to new Janet tracks***
The links don't work. Her crazy ass fans probably reported the links.
I think a lot of people who criticize Janet these days really were never big fans of her music to begin with. Janet has never really been straight ahead R&B. She's always be a hybrid of Dance, R&B and Pop. So if you're looking to Janet for a straight up R&B album then you're not going to find it. I can't hear the music because I'm at work but I can't imagine Janet working with all these hit makers and coming out with complete garbage. Some people won't janet to fail and when you want someone not to do good nothing they do (even if its decent ) will please you. I believe Janet has another classic in her, but she won't really achieve that goal until she goes back to Jimmy and Terry. They know how to get the best out of Janet because they created her sound to begin with.
I'm going to be buying Janet's new album on the 26th, but the real treat is going to be E. Badu. Sorry, but Ms. Jackson just can't compete!
Okay... now that I'm finished listening to the new Janet, I have to say that I hate both songs. I'm sorry but they're just not my style. Too pop, too techno. Let's hope the rest of the album is better.
LA is right ... folks who follow Janet know better. I like Rock With U best. And Erykah ain't on any new shit either for the record, that Honey shit sounds like all that other contrived neo soul bullshit she's done, fake hair and all. She is such a poser and folks fall for that shit. Janet ain't the be all and end all, but I'm a fan and she's no worse than any of these other hoes. It's just in fashion for folks to bash her.
OK...I just finished listening to the new tracks. I like to listen to 'em a few times before I make a judgement call.
Both tracks are cool...I'm leaning more towards "Luv." Cool...so far February's going to be a good month for music.
Jill Scott Live 2/5
Janet and Erykah Badu 2/26.
***still anticipating E. Badu's joint***
Janet and Erykah don't drive in the same lane musically so I don't see how the two can be compared. I like both artist and will support both but I can see that they're different. And I agree with ME that "Honey" is a good song, but nothing goundbreaking. Its a hot E. Badu track just like "feedback" is a hot JJ track.
she sounds like t pain on both songs with the voice box on..not a goodlook...janet cant make these type of songs anymore her mystic is gone she's 40plus people.. still singing songs that Ciara would do...janet needs a"thats the way love goes"sexy mids.. ok cool a dance trk here or there whatever but if janet wants us to forget she has a man and she's still ms nasty etc..make some grown women shit and stop tryna be 18 again..she get 2mths to convince us then its Mariah turn and in the meantime im with Musicman bring on E.Badu and Jill...A Keys on pt already 2k8 the fanz want that real..not the wanna be or the old and washed up!!!
Both Songs are good I don't understand why we are comparing Janet with any other artist Badu or Ciara or anyone else for that matter. Or why does her age matter folks need to stop hating and being overly critical. I hope the album is a smash to shut up all the haters.
And LUV is credited to Rodney Jerkins
THE SONGS ARE THE FIYAHH!! YALL NEED TO STOP HATEN, BECAUSE JANET BROUGHT IT THIS TIME AROUND EVEN THE 24 HOURS HATERS CAN NOT HATE ON THIS. JANET WILL ALWAYS EXECUTE, SHE IS THE ORIGINATOR, THESE ARE FO SHO #1 HITS MISS JACKSON!! HATERS KEEP HATEN, LEGENDS AND ICONS(JANET JACKSON) KEEP BALLEN!!
I LIKE YOU IT THINK ITS THE BOMB NOT REALLY FEELING ROCK WITH YOU I LIKE JANET I WILL BE PURCHASING THE CD ON FEB 26 08
Janet is the best ..I agree alot of these peeps weren't jan fans in the first place , I liked both songs, janet aint trying to be like anybody ..how could she when they are repeating the shit she did 20 years ago lol
Of course the blacks wouldn't like this. Rock wit U taps into a key segment of her fan base. Making music for the fans is what's important because they are going to the concerts. Prince doesn't sell records anymore either, but his concerts are packed with fans. That's where the real money is anyway. She doesn't need another hit record to go on tour, I hope she realizes that by now
Luv is good too, but it seems more like an album filler than a single.
JANET IS SIMPLY THE BEST!!!!!! HATEN ON JANET IS SO OUTDATED, FIND SOMETHING NEW TO DO!! JANET I LOVE BOTH SONGS, AND YOUR "FEEDBACK" SONG IS ABOUT TO BE #1 ON THE DANCE/CLUB CHARTS!!! CONGRATS!!! JANET = THE FEMALE MICHAEL JACKSON!!!
Both tracks are HOT! "Rock With U" is headed straight for the clubs. "Luv" has a nice groove, too. Janet's album is gonna be incredible, I can just tell!
songs sound hot

ok I really like both songs by Janet, It seems like she took that club/house/ambient sound. These songs IMO are more reminiscent of Velvet Rope material. But I understand why her music does not appeal to the R&B heads b/c it's sound like it's for the clubs. I will still support her when the album comes out.
garbage
These tracks are OK but BADU and her REALNESS got my money on Feb. 26!!
I LOVE Janet. I like both of these tracks on first listen, and I'm sure once I let them marinate, I'll be in love with them.
All of the haters need to learn some respect... When you've contributed to music what Janet has, you deserve it.
ITS ASHAME THAT MOST PEOPLE CANT HAVE A DIVERS IN MUSIC AND THEY SOOOO STUCK ON THE CRUNK SHIT. SMH. NIGGAZ YALL NOT HARD AINT SHIT ABOUT YOU HARD. BE DIVERS INSTEAD OF HAVING A ONE TRACK MIND. JANET NEW SONGS ARE GREAT I SEE NTH WRONG WITH THEM AND YALL DONT EITHER YALL JUST WANNA SEE A BLACK SISTA FAIL MAN AND THAT SHIT IS MAD CORNY N SAD. JANET KEEP DOIN YA THING N I HEAR BOUT JANET TAKEN OVER TIME SQUARE ON FEB 26TH.
"Rock With U" is slick! The house groove perfectly suits her breathy vocals. However, I personally don't think this jam is a club banger -- it's too slow.
Let me say this first: These songs are a step up from Feedback. That being said, acknowledgment being shown, I still don't like these songs.
Ummm. IDK why everyone like rocks with u. Luv is by FARRRR the more superior song. Now THATS a sure hit.
Both songs are a mess.
But I love Feedback!!
Both songs are pure fiyah! They're leagues ahead of Call on Me and So Excited. Rock with You is more my style, but Luv is hot and will probably do well on Radio.
Can't wait for the album later on this month!!!!
I am feeling both tracks. It's classic Janet. SO far so good...
How dare you give that talentless bubble head Rihanna that much credit, Janet has ALWAYS made one or two songs on her albums for her core fans, songs that have that dance-international-pop flava.
She knows she has to give the wonderful people something to groove to...
It's that simple!
true Janet fans would like Rock With You. Its the type of sound most of Janets fanbase enjoy. Knowing there are mostly black ppl on this site and most of you that haven't followed Janet more than 9 years would like luv better or none at all. I think luv is betta for airplay.
I love the new tracks, but luv is betta.
LUV is a banger. Rock With U is club central. Feedback is off the chain. Keep doing the damn thing - HARD miss jackson. Gotta luvher!! i will definitely be picking that up on the 26th... and in Times Square for the release.
I LUV Jnet...erkya Badu...WHOOO?
that shit dont even come close to Rihanna's "dont you stop the music"
''don't you stop the music is a club banger # 5 on billboard. this Janet shit is garbage.
Gotta admit it... LUV got me feenin 4 this album. I like Rock With U... but LUV damn... reminds me of old Jan.. also reminds me of "Do It 2 Me" from "20 Y.O" Do the damn thing Ms. Jackson... Bring on the damn album!!!!!
I wish Janet STANS would stop calling EVERY song she puts out classic. You're defaming what might be considered a legacy. This shit is not classic....
OKAY... I LOVE BOTH SONGS.... I AM BLACK AND "ROCK WITH YOU" IS THE SHIT....Also, most Black folks don't expand their musical horizons.... Janet has never been an R&B artist!!! get over it.....
Lastly, I LOVE ERYKAH BADU!!!! I WILL BUY HER ALBUM ON 2-26-08 As well.... Stop comparing people!!!! and pulling another down.... Both Janet and Badu have inspired me in more ways than one..... I love them both... THEY ARE MY FAVORITE ARTIST OF ALL TIMES..... so 2-26-08 is going to be the best day for me!!!! I can't wait!!!!! LOVE YOU JJ AND EB!!!!!!!
N I WISH KAE ACTING LIKE HE CARES ABOUT JANET.LOL. I NEVA SEE YA ASS IN NO OTHER POST EXCEPT JANET.LOL. WTF.
Both of these tracks are hot!! This album seems to have a little something for everyone. "Rock with you" is more sophisticated for New York lounge/club atmosphere. "Luv" is more for urban radio play. I think Janet has done really good with this album so far. All three tracks are pretty good. I will definately buy the album.
People are so stupid with the age thing. Remember they did that to Tina Turner, Diana Ross, and Cher. All three women went on to break attendance records after the age of 40. If someone looks awesome and has the energy to give their best, I say go for it! Age is a number and you are not done until you quit. Some of Tina and Cher's records have yet to be broken. I love all three songs so far. Janet makes great music and will do great! I saw her on the Janet and All for you tours! What a performer! Go Janet!
That LUV is the shit!!!....I like the notes in the music...its a DEFINITE winner for me. Can't wait for the entire cd to drop.
'Luv' is a good song. It took repeated listens -- about 15 -- for me to finally 'get it'
It took about 15 listens before I liked 'Feeback' also. If radio does not support these songs with heavy airplay Janet will have a uphill battle on her hands.
I am lovin' LUV. Rock With U is bumpin' too. All three songs so far have done the damn thing....
i love both especially LUV and i thought Rock Wit U was just okay until i turned up the bass and that is a great club banger.
BOST SONGS MADE ME CUM ALL OVER MYSELF!!! :)
JANET IS GOING AFTER ALL THESE BIACHES NECKS THIS TIME! LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!
Rock With U is a HOT HOT song! Luv is good too but it reminds me of a really good well produced album track.
I like both songs, I only wish people would not hate so much. If you don't like the songs, there is a way to say it without trying to be evil. Janet Jackson has been in the business for 30 plus years and still in the game. Give her the respect she deserves. I personly will be picking up a couple of copy's myself on feb 26th. Love you J and keep on doing the damn thing. Just feed off those who hate it only makes you shine more!
Rock With You is a hot track. Luv is definitely growing on me. Looking forward to the 26th!
Amazing! Can't wait for the new album...! Love u Janet x
Luvs is the shit....

NOW U KNOW THATS A DA*MN SHAME...FEEDBACK SOUND BETTER THAN THAT...JANET SUCKS
FEEDBACK DOESNT SOUND BETTER YOU BITCH MADE NI99A. N JANET DOESNT SUCK I STAB UR MOTHER PUSSY BITCH AND MAKE U SUCK ON DAT,
2 BAD BUT JANET WILL OUTSELL ERYKAH ANYDAY SINCE YOU WANNA BRING HER. I LOVE ERYKA SHE GOT SOME CUTS AND TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH "HONEY" SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN DONE B4, IM BUYIN ERYKA 2 BUT LETS KEEP IT REAL IF WE TALKIN BOUT THESE ARTIST STATE THE FACTS
Love both and sheeees back!
Gitit Girl, she still has it, you go girl!
Hit
Luv works for me... The first one jus had too much goin on... Why cant they grab Teddy Riley and Darkchild and Jimmy and Terry and get this girl back hot.? Every song sounds "Euro' Club" style like they are gonna go straight international w/ this one... I just dont think its janets time anymore because she's let the music go under her.... She's a great singer i cant take that from her.. But she has no revelency anymore... Sorry J.... But i agree that that E.Badu might go fed though..
