Michael and Janet Jackson have revolutionized modern choreography more than anyone
songbird53 Paula taught Janet
The choreographer is the same of Michael Jackson. She dances very well because she love a lot her brother Michael. They love each other.
bih kat I’ve come to realized this. Everyone is influenced..... Paula was a good Choreographer
But you would be stunned 😳 at the unsung.
Talent both MJ and his Entire tribe incorporated.... These people are disciplined
I see Fela Kuti, Fred Astaire, Paula Abdul is also a great dancer 💃 but I wouldn’t site
Her as the muse .... Janet’s five brothers
Maybe influenced her 😻 (no shade to Paula
Paula Abdul met Janet because she'd done some choreography for the Jackson's and her brothers thought so much of Paula's work and thought she'd work well with Janet and she choreographed 2 videos for Janet. No one can teach someone how to dance, they can show you the steps or choreography but you either have or you don't, just like singing. What's really interesting is that MJ has used many choreographers but no one has ever said any of them choreographers taught him how to dance and Janet's no different!
@@shawnjones4527That is very true!!!
the talent of the Jackson family is undeniable
They are the most talented family ever to exist, unbeatable !!
@@JayJay-tm9gx not really
they literally break laptops
I Totally Agree 💯
I wanted to avoid the comparison but:
Janet copies her brother's steps and movements ( Michael Jackson) .
Her choreography is similar to that of Michael.


People need to appreciate this Dance Choreography A LOT more.
I agree. Paula Abdul was the choreographer for this video
No, Anthony Thomas and Janet choreographed this!!! Omg!!!
vascularlab definitely not Paula!
No one can dance anymore lol. Twerking isn't dancing.
@@psychedelicfright85
Thats just shakeing the Butt
I just found out that my favourite Jackson is going on tour!!!!!!! I'm past excited - gotta find tickets and get my choreography back in shape!!!! Janet Jackson is such a fawking legend ❤
It still blows me away how after all this time this choreography continues to stand out among the top routines in hip hop history. Every element throughout the video is to spec, crisp, poised, and on point. Flawless, timeless, iconic.
Hello, beautiful how are you doing?
Are you on WhatsApp?
This choreography alongside Thriller are the greatest choreographies in history.
2:34
Hip hop?
@@roberthammond44 what the fuck?
Hands down that is one of the most coolest syncronised dance routines in all of history! 🙌👍
Ectromely
Much better than what someone claims to be the best video of all time ("Imma let you finish...")
Yess
see my above comment @Cindy V and the new one just i solitarily posted. i completely agree!
You should watch rock with you by her
The outfits & choreography was so dope Janet will forever reign as one of the Queens of Pop and R&B.
True💯
It was originally Michael's idea and she asked him if she could steal it. He said yea #truestory
^ Facts
@@CosmicVisitors Yup you're right
😂😂😂 Bro, the outfits and Choreography are trash.
They look like the empire from Star Wars
The Jacksons had such incredible talent. I didnt realize until i was a little older that Rhythm Nation was a song about social injustice, and creating better times.
Oh gawd yes! Check out DESIGNER COUNTRY Kenny Nash.. just a country version 😂😂😂 enjoy life it goes fast! Kenny😂
This album is I feel one of the most under-rated albums of all time. It has hit after hit and no fillers. Now so many years have gone by the social problems the album touches upon are still present and possibly worse. Sad that Janet became the fall girl after the Super Bowel performance. Timberlake was untouched which spooks me. This girl deserves a total second chance at the top pin. No one today could pull off a album like Rhythm Nation. Sadly I rarely ever hear the songs off this album on the radio. If your a young thing it's a must have album to key into.
The album wasn't underrated at the time of its release. But you are right; I would say that now, it has disappeared from hearing pleasure, which is so sad because it is very iconic and the "conscious" songs are very much relevant today. Shame on the music industry for hiding this gem. JERKS!
Really is though, same with Lauryn Hill and the miseducation album....The industry will bury socially aware material in exchange for superficial,corrupt garbage or booty poppin club mixes...
Miranda Nevels I disagree Lauryn's album went Platinum and she received five Grammys. Today other artists are samping her music i.e. Ex-Factor.
leokimvideo If it's any consolation, I think this song (among Janet's best) is solidly in place among the classics that people still love to hear. When Joseph Gordon-Levitt danced to this on LipSync Battle, it was clear that the audience response to the song was just out-of-control (and props to Joseph for putting in the effort to learn the difficult choreography, although he must have danced to it too when he was still a kid). Bottom line: Janet is still very much a legend, Timberlake is not, and most likely will never be.
leokimvideo umm its not and never was under rated. it sold upwards of 15 mill or more and won all kinds of awards. janet is still performing these songs. pure art . legend.
Best choreography ever. Talented Jackson family.
1. Smooth Criminal
2. Rhythm Nation
Janet called MJ and asked could she steal this choreography from him...and he let her...and she became miss Rythym Nation.
Still cool to watch the video
Melissa Causey
No to take the military idea, I’m not about to allow y’all to say Janet took this choreography from Michael.
The choreography was created by Paula Abdul.
30 years later and this is still a banger
Ava _ they’renotchinesemom love your profile pic

The video was a mini movie the Jackson's are known 4 that that's is why they are what new artists try to copy
I DO LIKE WHEN LEGENDARY MICHAEL JACKSON AND JANET JACKSON WEARS BLACK CLOTHES ❤❤
Rhythm Nation is one of the greatest pop albums ever made.
Absolutely
This. 💫
I dare say "THE" It's a masterpiece. It keeps you listening. It begins, and it concludes. As do all the classics.
True ❤ her best album
*albums
This song has one of the most powerful and important messages known to man. It is a testament to the fact that the world and the people should be united instead of divided. Despite everything that's been going on in the world, it's never too late to be an unbreakable unity. No matter the challenge, we can come back strong. Let this message speak from past, present, future, to forever.
ALL. OF. THIS.
Well said.
@ScaleTower Truth. Also, I checked out your channel several times and I like your videos by the way. I hope your channel blows up one day. Don't give up. Best wishes. 🤞🙏
Well said👍🏽

This song so powerful it can break laptops. Literally.
I came here for the same reason lol
Me too
kkkkkkkkkkkkkk
What mark of the laptop?
Old music is the best 😅
This choreography is iconic.
I very much agree
Maybe in the US, but worlwide Janet is unknown. Madonna is a true global artist.
@@helgafever768 Ain't you tired of being a hâter? Go back to Madge's videos
Helga Fever
How come some of her biggest Spotify country listeners are from Australia and the UK 🥴. You can enjoy Madonna with putting down Janet because she’s influenced just as many people as her.
Iconic? Perhaps, but it just looks like a knock-off of Michael J's "robotic" staccato choreography, to my eyes anyway. Also, *very* distracting: makes it even _harder_ to try to make out the words she's singing if you're watching all that "twitching" as well!
Actually, the whole song looks and feels like MJ, now I come to think of it … I expect I'm not the first person to say that, but this is the first time I've heard this song, or seen this video!
But hey: if *you* enjoy it, then great! Just doesn't appeal to me in any way though, sorry.
Shooting this is B&W was a genius idea.
It fits the whole industrial outlook.
That ageless effect is ridin high on this one.
They need to take the reels and remaster them to look more crisp.
Can u imagine???
@Queen Doris of the 8th Dimension they don't do choreography like that no more.
@@klmitchell5486 yupp its true.....nowadays its just twerking and skin show.....
She did it because it removes all colour and shows that we’re all the same
Happy birthday mother of the music industry Janet Jackson
She’s not the mother … she took everything from her brother
@@pariss3921 lol
@@pariss3921did she also copied the janet and the velvet rope concepts from her brother? Well maybe she saw him doing closeted shit, let’s ask Luther Vandross 🤭
She killed this shit, I think this is the album where she wasn’t just MJ sister. In her own league 😍
Rhythm Nation Is Forever A Classic Gem 💯
I think that was the case with Control.
Pls dont swear
@@stephenclark6110 umm stfu
But 90% of the comments are on Michael.
She dances very well! She's like her brother! Both are amazing dancers
yeah!
agree!
both have the same talents but Michael stood out.
In terms of dance I think Rhythm Nation is right up there with Michael's Thriller. Though if I had to pick one it would be Rhythm Nation. Both are credited for the choreography too, alongside the choreographers they brought in.
I think they both did equally well but let's not forget this is Michael's choreography he let Janet use it... but honestly I don't really care I love both of them.
+Save Equality This is NOT Michael's choreography. Why do y'all keep spreading that lie?
+gabrielle g Well I saw it in an article were it stated that it was Micheal's
I feel sorry for anyone who hasn't discovered Miss Jackson's discography. She's an absolute legend. 👑
You must be nasty

Her brother is also a dancing machine too.

Her Brother, the King is also a Dancing Machine.
@@dannypatrick9361 ya know it!
Janet and Michael always nailed the large group choreographic videos.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate and acknowledge the impact the Jackson family has had on music and pop culture ?
@@RyanLBrown9396 And, Children. 🤣
Just saw her and Nelly perform in Philly ( June 2024 ) . The woman is rocking out like it’s the 80s , for someone that is in her 60s she is dancing like time has no control of her. God bless her and here to the youngens who hopefully get to enjoy her music for many years to come.
Janet is 58 years old
If it wasn't for the computer-breaking properties, I'd never have discovered this masterpiece. You rock much more than harddrives, Janet!
Why does this video break your computer? 😄
@@mikesouthern7666 The bassline contains the resonant frequency of a certain type of hard drives, causing them to break.
@@RoseAbrams Wow!! Didn’t know that! Thank you. 😅☺️
the whole album is very iconic and impactful in music, you must listen to it.

Also, the lyrics of this apply still today... which says so much about our values. Sad.
Yassss
No
Yes! This and her IF video
This is the best choreography/dance sequence I have ever seen in any music video, hands down not even exaggerating, this is spectacular
Will Murphy have you seen "monster" from the group exo their choregraphy is spectacular!
RJ M all due respect for Janet's unique talent.
TheEmadia ly111 tfq1qq71. a
Will Murphy michael Jackson Thriller is really good too
Many times yeah
Her most prolific video of her career . Janet did her thing ❤
As a dancer, I have always been fascinated by this choreography. It’s sooo intricate and love the musicality. . this is why I will always love and appreciate Janet Jackson creativity and talent.
Someone who KNOWS. So refreshing!
I agree a lot
Hello DANNIRED !
I am a dancer and I play drums and cymbals. My favs are PRINCE, MICHAEL and JANET. You can give me any song in funk, rock and pop and I will dance according to the music. I hope to dance inPaisley Park one day.
THE PURPLE LOVE ASSISTANT
I wonder if anyone can duplicate it I doubt it
Still some of the best choreography I've seen in Over 20 years!!
Ikr, give it to Janet Jackson for making great choreography and to push hsrd drive manufacturers to greater lengths.
It gave me chills and my xp laptop
The conviction on Janet's face...the dedication to the music and it's message...it's unparalleled!
@@jitterrypokery1526 pretty sure Paula Abdul did all the choreography but I'm not sure. I know she did a lot for Janet but I'm not going to look up to see if this one is one of them. It looks like with her style.
ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!!!!!!!!
@@lisaboucher5553 Paula only did choreography for 2 videos off the Control album.....she wasn't part of this project.
I immediately went here after watching the Cinderella version of this song. My ears needed cleansing so badly
Same
Same 😭
Same omg how could they fck it up this bad like im appalled.
don’t think the movie version was bad. Stage versions always sound different than a studio-engineered version targeted for heavy rotation on radio and MTV. (See Beauty and the Beast movie version vs. the same studio-produced version in the credits.)
@@electrictroy2010 you’re replying to everyone with the same comment and liking your responses??
By far my favorite Janet song as well as video. Where has 1989 gone?!
To the past
lol
It's in your heart where it wil always be.
and your initials are eerily like mine. Mine are KDW and my birthyear is 1979...creepy lol
@Kentucky Wildcat Word up!
Michael is the GOAT but Janet did her own thing completely out of his shadow w/o him and became a legend with her own style and swag. He’s the King and she’s the Queen in my opinion.
He adored her
Listened to her music
She’ll get the acknowledgement she deserves. Queen jj
Ye MJ loved Janet the most outta the Brothers And Sisters
Sorry babe but that is and will always be Madonna.
DTS _ Both are talented but you had to thank their producers; Quincy Jones for Michael and Jimmy Jam & Terry Louis for Janet. Without those producers, the Jackson would have reached the success and popularity of the Osmond’s Brothers; a white musical family band of the 70’s.
This song even NOW is way ahead of it's time.
Still relavent in December 2019
Check out the original: Age Of Chance's "This Is Crush Collision". The whole album "One Thousand Years of Trouble" was way ahead of it's time, so went unnoticed. as all the things that really are way ahead of it's time :)
Hell yes! This dance group became one. Flawless. Classic.
STILL one of the greatest music videos of all time!
for sure
Not better than thriller
@@thekingmichaeljackson1084 No its not better than Thriller, but this video is definitely in my top 5 best music videos of all tine.

@@MuMuMochii i knew that
The Jackson's carrying on a legacy promoting love for humanity and the rights of all living things.
This video deserves more views. This is an iconic music video.
I love how her brother was the most famous man on the world and was never called “Michael Jackson’s sister”.
Dioney Pintor that’s just Rebbie lol
Janet was a force to be reckon with in her own right
@@Vaisin how do you know 👁️👄👁️
Actually people in comment are just talking about Michael Jackson.
Moon Bitch which is sad, but I think a lot of it comes from him being dead. We still miss him, looking at Janet is a reminder of him.
Almost 27 years later, I am still mesmerized.
When this came out I was well into acid house & EBM ( and a bunch of goth & random head music on the side ) - and yet it still takes me half a second to recognise this & still makes me drum tables... good tunes are just good tunes.
Pinklaeti 2 more years and three decades will be completed!
27 years later and I still don't know what she's saying lol. But I live for it.
listen to I heart radio onjanet Jackson holycrap

Nah the second I clicked on the video the computer warned me to call the fire department.
@@AaliyahAnyawhat are yall talking about
@@Baja2424 This song, when converted into an mp3, was able to resonate with the disk drive of early 2000's laptops. Something about the bass hitting the exact same place on the disk over and over again would lead to your whole computer getting bricked. Very fringe case, but it happened enough that the song got famous for it
When this album was released it wasn't just the album, it was a movement. Its commercial and cultural impact was clearly visible. What's even more important it still resonates and inspires. I am proud to be part of the nation :)
Such a bad ass song love it 😍
A movement? I remember 1989-90 when this album & its songs were topping the charts. Nothing changed in my life. It was just songs on the radio 📻 (which can just as easily be switched off & ignored)
@@electrictroy2010 Ok debbie downer.
What movement was that????🤔🤔🤔🤔
I was and still am inspired by her and her brothers sincerity in fighting for human rights.
The Jacksons have some serious talent. Like DANGGGGGG!
Janet and her whole crew had crazy stamina during the filming of this video. Mad respect.
Wat u tryna say?
that they have a lot of energy
Helplessly addicted to that bassline, I really can't think of a better bass part in any other song anywhere. Just perfect.
She's the Queen, her brother is The King
Ooooooooohhhhhhh yyyyyueeeeaaaaaahh
Well words of wisdom ✌️😊. Buddy
Alexxio you are right
So True
incest
Rhythm Nation was Janet’s best work, hands down. She was such an incredible performer and her dancers were off the hook. I saw her in concert back then and her show was just amazing. I think I memorized every move down pat, lol.
Facts
Her record company wanted her to do another control but she wanted to do a socially conscience album like Marvin Gaye and it out sold control
The 30 minute short film was great too.
Was? She still is..
My jaw dropped to the floor when I 1st watched this
I love how she looked up to Michael as a Big Brother and Mentor. She incorporated alot of his dance moves into this video which made it even more FANTASTIC. Janet was doing her thang in this video.
and he did the same.
@@alazjaw.8968 oh most definitely. They both loved eachother very much. I loved that about them. When he passed on I know she was the most affected by it. He lives on through her.
Rhythm is in the Jackson family's blood.
For one split second, they put their arms up awkwardly like MJ and the zombies in Thriller...did you see it?
The art of music video making reached its peak with this video. There's been a lot of great music videos since, but none have yet been able to top this.
Fun fact: Janet was 23 when she released this iconic album.
dang. i'm 23 right now struggling to finish my thesis.
@@junglilyYou're 25-26 now.
In her prime years
Watching hers and Michael’s music videos make me realize most artists don’t even try with their videos anymore
Do they even make videos anymore?? Lol, I know they do, but don't think they even show them on tv, just youtube. Maybe that's why artists half ass it now cuz they're videos don't even air on BET, MTV, or VH1 anymore, so it's really nothing worth them doing. Plus the Jacksons can't be matched!!
They don’t. It matches the music lol
@@laylascott6096 Right!! Lol

I love her so much. What Beyonce means to this generation of young girls is what Janet meant to me when I was young. Janet is my Beyonce.
+Ligeia0949 I love both Janet and Beyoncé. :P
+Crossfire Beyoncé can actually sing and doesn't steal her fans money :)
+Jack Sell Are you saying Janet can't sing?
Janet is original, a legend, can actually dance, has actual opinions on social injustice, has actual hit songs which are still remembered and impacted pop culture, doesn't pretend she's always singing live and doesn't steal from other people the whole time like Beyonka.
Both are good.
This song was such a banger, it made my computer start acting freaky
this is janet's most iconic and memorable music video to date. this video gives you everything: trailblazing fashion, social conscious lyrics, the industrial style sound and bomb ass choreography. "WE ARE A PART OF THE RHYTHM NATION!"
Yes, this is the definition of regal artistry!
You're right !
***** I'd say the entire album was one of her best. :)
That's why she got the ultimate icon award yesterday at the BET AWARDS. The tribute they did was amazing Ciara did a fantastic job when she danced to this song.
Markeannacook Cook I wanted her to preform though.
Just in case this got buried in the comment section: this video should have at least a bare minimum of 50 million views considering how culturally significant & gamechanging it was during the close of the '80s.
The reason for such low views is due to the videos being banned in countries until 2016. It says it was uploaded in 2009 but it wasn’t available for viewing in hundreds of countries.
@Taylor Kendricks sorry but i think u forgot about michael jackson?
@@artisthonyajta Why was this mv banned?
Daniella Karan
After the Super Bowl, Janet was blacklisted from the music industry. I don’t know if that has to do with it but this of course wasn’t able to be viewed until recent, in fact most of her videos you watch on RUclips are reuploads because a lot are still blocked in many countries like “All For You” and the MTV Version of “Love Will Never Do”
@@artisthonyajta Oh yeah, her album, all for you, was banned due to sexual explicit content.
It's funny but Michael said in an interview that he had a military idea video but Janet asked him if she could do it. He said yes and she killed it. He was so proud of his baby sis.
@@feligonzalez5222 No ,Michael did the dance
@@abderrahimabderrahim6659 he ended up using the idea later on for HIStory.
Lets be clear this was created by Janet Jackson and Anthony Thomas stop undermining her Talent sic of it....
Exactly, those kids dont know a $hit, it was his former husband and her.
@@feligonzalez5222 No. Michael wanted to use this idea originally for Captain EO but ended up giving it to Janet and he fell in love with how she did it.
This choreography is THE best. I miss it. I don’t think many people appreciate the level of difficulty here. It’s just amazing
The dancers are phenomenal !!!!!!
That gives me goose bumps and a rush of adrenaline.... Janet is a legend.
Agreed and Amen! 🙌🏽🙏🏽✌🏽🙏🏽❤️😘✨✨✨
I have always hoped and prayed to meet Miss Janet Jackson in person , but it is more of a wish not so much a reality. 🤦🏽♀️😱🙏🏽🙏🏽✌🏽❤️
❤️❤️❤️ she would have deserved more! Not all of this nasty press, smashing her reputation because of some simple mistakes or weight problems, which is so human...while her brother turned from a black handsome man into a fragile white women like fantasy figure, nobody really dared to question his transformation. Until today people believe he turned transparent due to vitiligo. I have seen people who really have vitiligo and MJ definitely didn't have it. I'm pretty sure, he would have shown it, instead of hiding. That would have been THE excuse for his changing appearance and I remember well, he didn't hide his health issues, because he "enjoyed", or rather needed the attention. Boy,I still have the paparazzi pictures of an overweight Janet in my head, jogging along the beach,hunted by her personal trainer...I felt so bad for her 🥺
Like mike
Same here!
The precision and sync is PHENOMENAL
Oh my god, choreography so CLEAN!
Damn, I'm in my 60s and I STILL want to be Janet Jackson!
Lol I feel you!!!
The only 2 Jackson’s who scorched the earth 💯
The Choreography is just Insane!!!
This song has more meaning today than it ever has
very true!
That's what so sad
+maldenom no sadness.. be a part of it.. yesterday, today, tomorrow.. if U R a kid of this Nation... live it.
nickvie71 Preach!!

I was 17 when this was released. I'm in tears at how good this is. This still kicks ass!
How old are you?
@DutchXfan 49 years of age??
I been a Janet fan all my life. I’m still blown away by it. The choreography is insane. Timeless art.
THIS was the most epic concert for my teenaged self to see! My God! Epic
such a talented family
Janet choreograph is the bomb. Damn i remember trying to do those steps. Her dancers are awesome.
This should have more than 22 million views... all of Janet Jackson song should have more views.
True
They keep resetting her views even though she is part of the reason RUclips was created. The creator felt there should be an online viewing platform to share her little boob incident at the Super bowl. Then Les Noonvies or whatever his name black balled her from all media exposure...including YT.
Yeah but I bet back in the 80s-90s and early 2000's a lot of people watched her MTV music videos
It does now
Views dont make music good.
THIS VIDEO STILL SLAPS IN 2024! THE CHOREOGRAPHY AND THE SONG GONE STAND THE TEST OF TIME!
This song and video means more now in 2020 than when it was created 30 years ago🙏🏾
BIG FACTS !!
I was thinking about the hook this afternoon and started singing the song which brought me here. Sad to say you are 💯
Yes!! I heard it today on Pandora. It was always one of my favorites. We all need to hear this now!!
So true!
Amen to that
This songs message is just as relevant today as it was back then. Everyone stay safe in this escalating racial tension.
UfodexENMD especially with the George Floyd incident.
I was about to comment that too... bingo
Also, it's not lost on me that it was recorded in Minneapolis too. Still relevant on so many levels.
I prefer this message to the one that's out there. It's about working together to remove colour lines to live under one nation. Not about retribution and not about black vs white vs blue vs red America.
MsJubjubbird This was before Rodney King. Keep that in mind.
Not only is the choreography stunning, but the outfits are amazing and her voice is beautiful as well
Sooooo good. Just wow. It's a great song on its own but the choreography takes it out of the stratosphere 🚀❤
Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814, released on September 19, 1989 is a masterpiece, so much that every artist afterwards who tried to duplicate the choreography, vocals and music style never came close to topping it. No album released today comes close. Janet Jackson was and still is in Control.
I wanted to add that this song breaks the hard drives
Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis were in Control. 👌🏾
Janet's videos were THE BEST. The choreography was TOP NOTCH, and Janet could execute each move LIKE A QUEEN!! LOVE HER!!❤
Why isn't she on Dancing with the stars? Because she is old and senile 2024
Kids today don’t know how fresh this was
It still sounds fresh
Better than anything my friends listen to
They're too busy doing drugs😒
I was born July 28th 2000 and this is still fresh... What do you mean. Janet is my favorite artist of all time.
It still is fresh
Fun fact Michael said in an interview that when he wants to relax and/or make up some new dance moves, he would turn on this, or Janet Jackson's The Knowledge and then let it rip! He was so proud of his little sister. 🥰 Their last words to each other were "I love you." 💔❤️🩹
This song is more relevant now than ever...Everyone needs to listen to the lyrics...Janet was way ahead of her time on this one..
Song is fire but I wouldn't necessarily say the message of the song was ahead of it's time because racial injustice has always been prevalent in the US. It has never stopped being an issue since slavery times. It’s just that now we have smartphones to record everything and social media to share everything at a fast rate.
For sure. Not ahead but always relevant. It should have a come back. I wish I could blast it at a protest
ahead of her time? racism was way worse back in the 90s...
30 years on and the moves are still banging!
Talent is screaming across the entire video!!
I didn't come here from anyone. I came here because this is an amazing song!
exactly!
yaaasssss, same here!! i really miss the hype of 80's-90's dance song!!
Same!!! Honestly 70s-80s music were and will always be the best music
Same
And im glad you are here!
This is Janet's best! The choreography is insanely fucking amazing!! I want to be a part of her Rhythm Nation.
ME ASWELL even if it's just too be standing up and being counted as someone who wants change NOW/YESTERDAY!!!!!
2023, Janet Jackson and Michael Jackson are still the legend of pop music.❤
I don't think people in 2020 understand how ground shaking this album was in 1989. A masterpiece ! The preamble is what we should all aspire to.
BRAVO!! Well said!! I don’t want anyone of these younger people dismissing GenX anymore. We were WELL aware and always exposing injustice. But we did it together. We did with intelligence, without color lines and without all the WOKE propaganda.
Your 100% right there.
I really want to know why we don't have epic shit like this anymore... WHY??? What's stopping artists being innovative and captivating like in the 80's and 90's? There's literally no superstars and mega groups anymore.
Nester Laziness and easy money. Confidence and trust in skill have been transformed into cockiness and too much bling bling. Buzz and mediaplay have become the perfect tool for people to become famous and youth model (kim kardashian for example) when before you had to master at least one skill to have credibility as an artist and get people recognition
Nester very few people actually want to put in that WORK. I grew up trying to do this video at home and it's pretty damn hard. Even if you get all the moves right, you get winded. Even when I search for people ATTEMPTING to do this choreography, they skip steps to make it easier. I've only seen one dance group get it sort of right and they were really young elementary school kids.
Jason Well we had "This is America" this year, I hope it will inspire other artists to do similar stuff
watch Nature - pop project Rhymth Nation. you wont regret it
Lack of creativity and passion for music.
This song is so strong, even for computers.
She set the STANDARD! CLASSIC!
No twerkin, no skimpy outfits, just pure talent and these lyrics are dead on to what's going on today in 2019 wish she could perform this at the Superbowl
I hate what you lot have done to twerking.
Wtripple3 Thompson I thought they said that she was banned from performing at the Super Bowl ever again after that 2004 incident
I'd def go to see that one!!!
She is banned but it'd still be awesome lol
@@heatherakers5622 She's not banned anymore.
This was a revolutionary song!! This was probably ahead of it's time. It sure is relevant to today's society! I love me some Janet!
Nothing these days come close to this incredible standard.
