Here's a little Monday morning gossip for you... Apparently viewers will soon have a chance to peep out whether all the Janet/Ciara swagger jacking digs are worth any weight.
The ladies are reportedly planning to make a video for the "Feedback" remix with Ciara. Since the Ciara version was released, the song has climbed into the top 20 on Billboard's Hot 100 and is currently #2 on the Dance charts and #5 on iTunes. Sources say Def Jam will be re-releasing the song to radio.
For those who haven't heard it yet, check below:
I think it sounds pretty hot -- and oh yeah obviously that's a fan-edited video not the official joint, but it's nice to see them together regardless...
What y'all think? Talk to me y'all.

I'm going to need to see the inevitable behind the scenes catfight on the set of this video (if it even happens)
"Since the Ciara version was released, the song has climbed into the top 20 on Billboard's Hot 100 and is currently #2 on the Dance charts.."
What the fuck are you talking about? The song climbed the charts because of Itunes sales. Digital downloads have been increasing steadily, not radio spins. Get your facts straight potna..
I agree with BDSMediabaseSoundScan... I don't think the remix had anything to do with the song climbing the charts.
Whoa tough crowd -- I didn't say one was because of the other. The song has moved up the charts and rumor has it they are making a remixed video. Happy Monday to y'all too.
Of course you all are going to say the remix had nothing to do with the increase because you don't want it to. The poster had it right. The song spins did increase after the remix dropped. It's the remix that's getting the attention, not the original.
Damn! I wish you Janet fans would stop being so petty. As much as you want, for whatever reason, the two of them to have beef they don't.
I hope they do I like that version better than the original.
The reason the song climbed to number #5 on iTunes is because of the remix. Ciara added more flavor to the song. The original verison is wack as hell and in my opinion I think ciara saved the song. I hope they do a video for the remix cuz it would be crazy if the 2 of them got together. And Cici should teach janet a few new moves. Janets kinda loosin' her touch.

Niether the remix OR the original is getting any attention at radio! As a janet fan I can tell you that I'm am happy to see JJ get any attention on radio these days and if it takes Cici to do it so be it. But The truth of the matter is the song only climb to #19 on the charts because of itunes sells and video rotation. All you have to do is check Mediabase to no that "feedback" gets no love at radio other than on the all Dance stations (basically the gay radio stations) . Luckily for Janet, people actually liked the song, (even though radio won't play it), and they decided to purchase it online.
The song has been one of the most Downloaded songs on the internet for weeks, yet radio won't even give it any play. Then yall wonder why Janet fans say she's being blacklisted at radio. This shit don't add up.
how did the song climb to number 5 on itunes because of cici? Her ass wasn't on the the track on itunes, and the song is still loosing spins before and after the remix. Why would someone buy a song off of itunes knowing damn well she aint on the track?

The remix is unofficial and can't even be purchased at itunes! Most folks ain't even heard it yet! So how are they downloading the rimix? People are downloading the ORINGINAL version! The song has sold more than 300,000 copies online alone. Basically the the has been purchased more than the album! Yet radio still won't show janet any love.
It seems....gimicky. I'll wait untill I see the video, but it sounds cheesy. Sigh...does anybody remember the days when gimicks WEREN'T the norm to sell records?

I was going to post a comment but I see the Janet stans are out in full force
*takes cover*
@ sohh soulful rebel: That is absolutely shameless what you said at the top of that blog, "Feedback climbs into top 20 after Ciara version release". You people are really out to get Janet right... WTF!!! That version of feedback has nothing to do with the original version climbing to #19 on the charts, but has everything to do with the release of discipline most likely because cbs radio and radio in general has pretty much blacklisted Janet. In the face of all the adversity and hateration Janet still has a #1 album, movie, DVD, and song. Yall fucking haters can't touch her!!!!!!
...And you just a ball of mis-information and lies, feedback is currently #1 on the dance charts sohh rebel, oh wait...maybe that's because of Ciara too! Get the fuck outta here you fake ass reporter!!!!!

Wow. You guys are really crazy... I've said it before and I'll say it again -- Reading is Fundamental. I personally never said Ciara was to thank for Janet's jump -- timing wise -- yes the song has done better since the release of the remix but please believe I have zero hate in my heart for Janet.
OH and BTW while you were busy bashing me I've been on the phone with Billboard getting to the heart of the matter. The stans are right - Feedback is up thanks to the album release and digital downloads -- however the Ciara fans also have a good point -- the song is up slightly at radio which could be an indication of a boost from the remix...
No more Janet posts from me. Thanks for Monday morning headache.
I wont front I was spinning the song already but I dont play the original any more since I got the remix.
AND the remix is 100% better. It has more flav. Ciara did add a lil swag to it.
"No more Janet posts from me."
^^^^^^^^^
LOL! Thats it girl. These Janet stans are like children being childish over candy. They will always scrap over her so just withdraw the candy from them.
yall check out my first single on CL
The idea of a joint video where this song is concerned would be a waste of time and money if you ask me. Regardless of how well the song may be doing on the charts now, I think it would be ridiculous for Janet to create a new remix video for Feedback when a new video for the latest release (RWU) just aired last week. Keep moving forward not backward. Even if this song was to hit #1 (remix or not) I dont think it makes sense to go back now and make another video for it.
Rock WIT YOU Will 1st be focused on the international markets. Its already #3 on Japan's HOT 100. Rock with you Will Be a worldwide Smash and Will Definitely make her albums sell like crazy like Madonna's Hung Up, did with her Confessions on a dance floor...Feedback is heating up on U.S. AND Canada Charts. Its already #3 on Canadas Hot 100 and #19 on US HOT 100!

Mistake No. 1 - Allowing the commenters to dictate or sway what You as the writer wants to write about.
Rebel..try not to take these comments so seriously. Take ownership of the blog and stand behind what ever it is you choose to write. You are going to find that folks will take this same approach to any artist they see fit. Look through the archives..this is a touchy topic. Soulman fanned a lot of the flames where this Ciara/JJ remix is concerned. You just happen to be coming in on the tail end and catching some of the heat from that fire.
Page Black, thanks and yeah I was aware of the issues.
Don't take me too literally either - I'm not actually blacklisting Janet. Not yet anyway. LOL.
Oh and trust me..you don't want to write anything bad or misleading about Beyonce either. You think stans are bad? Shit..I've read commenters go off on Soulman when he was writing something positive about Beyonce. With that artist, you are damned if you do..and damned if you don't. LOL! Good luck!
Us Janet fans mostly like Ciara its just some of CiCi fans talk outta they ass. CiCi isn't an icon or legend she doesn't have 6 number one albums. Hell she don't even have a number one album. Ill try to see if she even has a number one hit. She even opens up for rhianna.lol. So CiCi is nooo threat to Janet period. And they do play feedback on the radio but not the remix. Only time I heard the remix was on youtube. Even busta rhymes is on a feedback remix of his own. Janet jumped cuz of itunes. The remix is not even on itunes. And honestly they need to redo the remix cuz Ciara sounds off. Yall can call us stans all yall want but if something is wrong we gon say its wrong. And SOUL REBAL if u wanna be like how mtv was n bann Janet so be it. But I have a feeling ur gonna be like that for the Beyonce n Ciara fans cuz they are just as crazy.lol.
Page Black, thanks and yeah I was aware of the issues.

Yes Beyonce n Janet even Mariah fans u just don't fuck wit.lol.
Every successful female artist has rises and falls. Hence, Mariah , Mary, Whitney , Madonna and Janet. Beyonce will have her fall also....However, the real fans are with them when they are down and will be there when they are up. The thing about Websites like this, they are focused on those who are Hot. Its Very Fickle. BUT ONCE they artist is up, THEY WILL JUMP ON THE BANDWAGON, just like they DID WITH MARIAH. I KNOW SEVERAL People who did that! JANET WILL HAVE GLOBAL SUCCESS WITH THIS ALBUM....IVE ALREADY STATED THE STATS . Moral: SOULMAN will eat his words.
Yes Beyonce n Janet even Mariah fans u just don't fuck wit.lol.
Feedback's better chart position has nothing to do with this shitty remix. It's due to the fact that Janet has been included on MTV again and she has been on every show under the sun in the past two weeks. It doesn't take much journalistic know how to see that. So while you're on the phone with billboard, all you had to do was open you eyes. Also, stop tryna act like you didnt imply that the Ciara remix didnt bump up the chart position.
Correction:
The Evolution was the number 1 album in December 2006 beating Gwen Stefani and Eminem who were released the same week.
Goodies was number 1 in the US and the UK in 2004.
And Ciara is only 2 albums deep.
Keep hating.
Ciara had nothing to do with the albums chart position! WHATSUP WITH THE IGNORANCE?!!!! igonorant folk are the worst people. Anyway, Feedback skyrocketed on Itunes and Amazon because of Janets promotion....and people are buying the ORIGINAL VERSION!
RE: to Boogie
I like Ciara but those stats are okay. Ciara's 2nd album had horrible single choices and poor videos (except Promise). She downspiraled after the 1st album. Its usually should be the opposite. Her first album sold more than her 2nd.
Kool. Thanks for participating.
Hating? Me Hating? Muthafucka shut ur weak ass up. Who da fuck dat was really out in dec of 2006. No one. The fact of da matter is ciara ass is openin shows for rhinna. No one is checkin cici. I knew what year da bitch came out in. She still didn't break grounds or anythin. She tried sooo damn hard to be Janet on her sec album its not funny. All dem damn inturedls. Everybody know Janet only does dat on her album. Cici is fake. Period. Talkin bout Ima hater. U know u right. I'm a hateful muthafucka. N I wish death on ur bitch ass. Fuck Janet n Ciara now. Don't come at me like dat. I hope ur mutha is dead bitch.

Def Jam continues to eff up in my book. The fact the Rihanna took a year to go platinum b/c they chose shut up and drive as the second single was already enough to convince me that they don't know what they're doing. Luv is getting more airplay than any Janet song out right now. She needs to create some momentum for that single. Itunes helped feedback go up but I think we've seen its peek. Ciara's remix didn't do anything for the single a month ago, I don't see how it could help now.
RE: 0731
I hear what you are saying. But "Rock with you" will be an international smash and Janet Needs International sales to further enhance her SuperStar Power. It's already #3 on JAPAN HOT 100 and the video just came out. "Luv" is giving the buzz to the urban markets and that will do very well in the U.S. Feedback is still getting momentum and I think it will be in top 10 next week!
Ciara beat out Eminem and Gwen Stefani for number 1 selling well over 300,000 in the first week. That's hella good. Selling albums is really hard to do these days when ppl can get it for free. If you can get a million ppl to pay for something they can get for free in this economic climate you gotta be doing something right. Some of ya'll need to cheer the hell up and stop being so negative. Be happy!
So what if Ciara opened up for Rihanna in the UK! Keyword UK. I don't know if doing 9 songs is really considered opening either. And that was right after headlining the Scream tour with T.I.
Ahh Page black, take ownership of what? Lies, falsehoods, misleading statments. You too are wrong, because the first thing a writer should understand is how to be truthful to your audience, it's just that simple. It has nothing to do with commenters trying to run this blog. When a writer writes something that is completely untrue and could be easily verified, how would you expect people to react? Then to make matters worse rebel states that she didn't state this "personally"... maybe she should try reading her own headline again. At least she tried to right what she know was wrong!
Yeah...Janet & CiCi doin' they sh*t on a FEEDBACK video! FIYA baby!!! Front...back & 4ward and get th@ $$$!
Ayo! Didn't JD come out & say Janet had nothin' 2 do with the remix a while back? Wonder how the video's gona go down with th@ bruh?
