Janet Jackson Nation Version III Enlisting whiz producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis for "Control" was Jackson's first flash of brilliance; the duo fused hip-hop assertiveness and pop smarts to spark both the singer's big-time explosion and a new persona; a sweetheart but a powerhouse, cute but no ingenue. "Control" (1986) and "Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814" (1989) went far in wasting any lingering impression of their creator as merely Michael's kid sis.

Amazon.co.uk: Design of a Decade 1986-1996: Music "Runaway" is a breezy, xylophone-driven pop tune that may seem like a retreat from her funkiest advances; then again, it may be just one more stretch in Janet Jackson's universal pop ambitions. Janet, if you released a "best of" album in the same year your brother did, at least you should have made it a double album just like his. Most of these songs are true classics and the two new songs at the beginning and end of the album serve as great bookends to this collection. www.amazon.co.uk /exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000714V   (1939 words)

Janet Jackson Janet Jackson - Control- Rhythm Nation 1814 - janet. If you think her success is due to the Jackson name, ask yourself how many records LaToya or Tito have sold lately; Janet co-writes and co-produces the majority of her work, which probably doesn't hurt.

Many tracks, from the opening "That's The Way Love Goes" through "Throb," are oddly similar to Madonna's Erotica: ostinato keyboards and drum programming, heavy breathing, all the way to the psychobabble spoken word refrains and "Look at me, I'm being naughty" dirty talk. www.warr.org /janet.html   (1136 words)

Janet Jackson: Rhythm Nation Compilation - PopMatters Music Review The Control album was Jackson's surprising return to pop music after lukewarm sales of two earlier albums. Janet tells how meaningful their story was to her, and the disc wraps on that inspirational note.

Cherrelle : Greatest Hits - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect In fact, a few observant followers of '80s R&B will tell you that a more popular Jam and Lewis creation, Janet Jackson's "Control," is a knock-off (albeit a brilliant knock-off) of "I Didn't Mean to Turn You On" -- both featuring empowered women over breathless electro-funk. Jackson did wind up stealing some of Cherrelle's thunder, becoming even more synonymous with Jam and Lewis and eventually reaching icon status, but Cherrelle was just as capable at delivering the dripping sexed-up grooves, the melancholy ballads, and the club tracks. -- of her charting singles are joined by six of the stronger album cuts, all of which come from her first three albums. www.artistdirect.com /nad/store/artist/album/0,,3222519,00.html   (314 words)
