Rhythm Nation, one of the greatest albums ever made
Totally!
I 100% agree with you and although I'm more of an old school heavy rock/metal fan and have been to many rock/metal concerts in my time. Not one of them even came close to being as good as when I saw Janet Jackson in concert during the Rhythm Nation World Tour at Wembley Arena in the UK back in 1990.
Although most people say that The Velvet Rope is her best album. To me it will always be Rhythm Nation 1814, I feel this was the best album she ever made, because for me it wasn't just the music or the different styles of music that she sings. It was the social issues that she was singing and saying that affected me and still does even now.
@@davidhabert the thing I find is music is just that. There are genres and sounds we navigate towards but when something is done right it really doesn’t matter.
@@kaiatherton I totally agree with you, in this case the genres and sounds were done correctly for this album.
It truly is Janet's best achievement IMO. I'll be honest tho....I have been revisiting 20YO a lot! It has really grown on me and it's full of total bops!
When it comes to “The Pleasure Principle”, it’s not the song everyone loves, it’s the iconic music video!
Yesssss
"COMEBACK TO ME" is a masterpiece....just the first 12 seconds of that song is like I died and went to heaven 😇🤗
Amen!
That's cool. I just watched the video a minute ago and I caint with this song I just caint
In the end of that song she says "I don't know what else to say" just really melted my heart one of my favorites on the album
Great review! Rhythm Nation is definitely my number one #1 as well, my ranking are a bit different afterwards, but I really enjoyed your review of this extraordinary, amazing, talented Icon. Her body of work is phenomenal!
Awesome!

Sal, I'm so happy that you feel better about 20 Y.O. because I feel like that's the magic of that album, it's kind of understated but then it's like actually that's a really good 00s r&b album!
Totally!
All For You is so amazing, my favorite
So good!
Mine too!!
Loving the Paula HEAD OVER HEELS cover behind you!
I'm Crazy Cool for that album!
@@SalRocha Get Your Groove On Sal! Where are your videos ranking Paula??? I looked but don't see any...
I think you will like pleasure principle more if you watch the music video. It’s iconic.
Noted!
YASS JANET CONTENT !!! This video is full of great surprises, love that she grew on you ❤️
Yay! Thank you!
This is so original, Love this channel
Thank you!
I literally yelped when I saw the placement for number 6 😂😂😂
Good yelp or bad yelp!?
Take Care from 20 Y.O is my FAVORITE SONG OF ALL TIME. I love it so much that between now and August 11th, I have listened to it 213 times according to my Spotify Wrapped 😂. The flow and her sound on Take Care just puts me in a trance.
Take Care is defiantly one of the best tracks on 20 Y.O.
I own the “Janet.” Album on vinyl
Same. I have all the albums from Control to All for You on vinyl. She needs to re-release the rest.
Loves it!
All for You is such a grower!! More you listen to it the more songs you learn to love
Totally!
I love your ranking!! Thank you for this update it's fantastic, I was curious to how the songs were growing on you, and I'm so happy for this update. Lemme tell you child for someone who's not a vocal beast, her voice & style has a way of creeping up on you and leave you wanting more, what made her my favorite, what made me put her at #1, she's legit the only voice in the industry I CRAVE, I'm addicted to, I NEEED. It's that versatility and it's just everything. I hope when I eventually get it up you check out my ranked series (even tho I left heavy hints in your comments of what that looks like, kudos for our shared bottom 4 lol.! And for Discipline being after 20Y.O. for the same reason!). Sal it's good to have you as a Janet fan 😊
Thank you very much! You are so kind!
Actually Just A Little While and I Want You from the Damita Jo album was suppose to been Janet 11th and 12th #1 songs on the Hot 100 but since her incident at the Super Bowl cause of Justin Timberlake the singles was blacklisted.
I like those songs but I don't hear #1 hits with them
@@SalRocha Well they were meant to be #1 on the Hot 100 but Just A Little While at least went #1 in the clubs and in Japan.
Now we know Janet told justin to be silent and not say anything (he obeyed)...and let us hate him for 20 years and then she tells us to leave him alone. Had she had GUTS TO STAND UP FOR HERSELF and capitalize on inequality then things would have been different, but she didn't and she became a has been. Facts
@@jseight279 Lol I'm not gonna even bother
I did say 20 Y.O. was better than people say it is 😆 I like it!
I love that album too...one of my faves
I like it now too!
@@SalRocha 🥰
Discipline was the first album since her debut and Dream Street to not have any writing/production by Janet herself, hence why it feels less Janet-like. Rock With U is a gem though!
In fact Throb was released in single only in netherland, in US, it's included in a B-Side of the single ''Any time, Any Place''. The song playing in radios because of that b-side and the club.
And ''Any TIme, Any PLace'' was excellent in the alvum version, the R Kelly remix was so much fit in the 90's and more groove while the album version was more a ballad and timeless.
That's fine and dandy but THROB should have been her biggest hit ever!!!
@ 3:13 I guess you could say it was A Nightmare on Dream Street!
I'm screaming!
Janet is a LIVING LEGEND. I love her.
QUEEN
No matter how ranking the album i do love all janet albums because she is talented , music are different and great singer of all time and she is my Diva
I love all her albums but I agree with RN 1814 being the #1 album and it sprung hit after hit.Just a amazing very talented and beautiful,iconic artist and still to this day just the best.

First time watching your videos, and i felt in love of your face inmediatly.
Love your listing...my favorite janet album is also your favorite album. .dream street is also my least favorite , I feel the same way about that album as you do... was shocked to see janeet period so high up
Thanks for sharing!!
I totally agree with your ranking.
But the velvet rope album is iconic because at that time, it saved more than one life for the lgbt community.
It’s nothing today but at that time the songs freexone, tonight the night, together again, Wyatt about… There are calls for acceptance of difference. We feel sadness and vulnerability throughout the album with the Wong everytime for exemple. It’s her most personal cd and hard to record, according to her because she addresses very personal topics such as domestic violence, racism, homophobia, aids... for many it’s her best album with the Janet era. And in addition, she innovates with aphro cuts, piercings and tattoos... rare at that time. thanks U very much for all yours Janet vidéos.
Thanks for sharing!
Yay. I still hope you react to Velvet Rope Tour AND All for you Tour from Hawaii
Oh yes☺️
One day!
I prefer the all for you tour!
Thank you for taking you’re time and listening to Janet’s albums and Sharing it with the world this means a lot it melts my heart when others fall in love her hard work much love sal ❤️
#Janerfan4life❤️

Would you consider starting a Destiny’s Child & Beyoncé discography journey? Great artist and RnB music.
Oh yes
And Brandy☺️
Not a fan of Beyoncé but you never know!

I really do prefer 90s R&B vibe with everything including Janet's music. Dream Street I find very underrated, I like it quite a bit and I think it's far better than Janet's first album. 20 Y.O. is also underrated.
20 Y.O has grown with me over time!
I Love Janet Jackson ❤️
Same!
Great list and good to hear you changed your perception on certain albums especially velvet rope and all for you. Also Glad you liked Love will never do! Watch the music video too...
You might want to listen to the original version of "doesn't really matter", it's the best version. ..and "Come back to me" to the legendary..the harmonies at the beginning, nothing can top that.
Thanks!
Hey Sal. I appreciate your rankings and agree with your top 6 though I would swap Control and Velvet Rope. I also agree that Come Back to Me is one song I keep returning to after all these years. Its had tremendous longevity and has aged well. I have created my own Janet Slow jams playlist and Come Back to Me starts it off and it ends with Feels so Right.
Thanks for sharing!!
Now we await for the Black Diamond album hopefully you react to Janet videography soon.
Noted!
Rhythm Nation is certainly what elevated Janet to icon status. 👍🏻
Amen
Control & Nasty were
@@grxgghxrpxr no those put her on the map.
come back to me is amazing
My favorite Janet song!
Wow!!! Even if I didn’t agree with everything, your ranking makes sense and you gave good reasons for why you ranked them that way. I do agree, RN 1814 is her best and most definitive album! Not only too many hits to name but one of the most forward thinking concept albums of all time. It doesn’t matter if it’s 1989 or 2021, those lyrics and messages are timeless and universal!!!
Thanks for sharing!
I consider “Control” her 1st album. Even Janet think like this.
We can "consider" it her first all we want but regardless the first two albums do exist!
26:03 - That's "Smoke on the Water" not "Black Cat". ;)

My Janet Jackson Albums Ranking from favorite to least favorite nice ranking of yours wonder where her Black Diamond album would be ranked when it's released.
Thanks for sharing!
Funnily enough, the 3 lowest rated ones are the ones where she didn't have any writing credits on, or work with Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis.

A fun challenge for you from a 35 year Janet STAN. Do The Pleasure Principle as your first video reaction. You will do a 180 and will totally "get it'. I guarantee you 🤓✌
Great suggestion!
Fantastic ranking of Janet's albums, I agree with you on a lot of your reviews. Rhythm Nation 1814 will always be her best album!
Glad you enjoyed it
you look like a cartoon character in this video - Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius😊
20 y.o is my shyt idc idc. Start Anew sounds 84. during her fame era though lol. Thats how I always looked at it. I hattte the r.kelly version of anytime anyplace.....Innever could get into it evwn in 94😂...I agree on the first part of your comment on Unbreakable. Honey how old do you think Janet is ?? 😂 She was during unbreakable but will 55 during the black diamond era....my girl. I agree with cbtm On RN1814.....LONELY IS MY SHYT THOUGH

If you love throb, look the bilboard icon award 2018,
She performs nasty & throb before receve the first icon award for a black femal artist.
Bruno mars Is kneeling in front of her.
I've seen it! It's iconic!
Janet doesn’t even like Dream Street or Janet Jackson 😂she would be happy to know you like one of them
Her debut has some bops!
Sal I hope you see this. A great artist for you to react to. Alanis Morisette ( Jagged Little Pill)
How Ironic! I've listened to it before!
I AGREE☝ with your list from worst to best Album by Janet..i think i would Swamp out Control & JANET. Albums (Just Me) All depends What "Mood/Vibe" im feeling...because janet music has different elements if i wanna Dance bangers..i pick Control..Rhythm Nation more Political/Rebel..Unbreakable Free/Spirtual..Velvet rope..Dark..JANET Very Sensual..ALL 4 U/Damita Jo & Discipline..Sexy/Freaky?....And Whenever you decide to react to Janet Videos it may or may not change your list because now the Song sounds have a face on it should i say...and can you do some janet jackson live performances reactions ...AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR JANET JOURNEY👋👋👍😌
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING ME ON MY JOURNEY!
Man, u got to be kidding. Warmth is up there with
anytime and anyplace
Down in the delta was esther rolle last film role in 1998 and she died that same year in November days after her 78th birthday but at the same time janet know esther rolle because she was on good times when esther came back in 1978 when Janet was 12 years old see esther left the show before Janet joined the cast in late 1977 for the fifth season but esther returned for the sixth and final season in 1978 to do a couple of episodes with Janet.
Such a shame! I loved her in Maude!
What about Design of a Decade? Did you like Runaway? That is one of my top JJ songs. ❤️
Oh and i thoroughly loved your ranking. I’m so happy you discovered Janet!!
Runaway is good!
You're so cute, Sal!!!
I try

Wonder where her Black Diamond album will be ranked whenever she release it 🤔
We will just have to wait and see!
@@SalRocha Yes Sal I think the album gonna be a little sexual cause she was teasing sex stuff promoting the album and tour before Covid strike I wish she still release the album already her fans are getting reckless over it now but Janet love making fans suffer for something new lol she does have a song coming out soon with her long time producers Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis they have a album coming out supposedly Janet and Mariah will be featured on some of their songs.
I would rank "All For You" much lower than where you have it.
Wait, you don't like "Pleasure of Principle" but you like "You Can Be Mine"? LOL!!!! "He Doesn't Even Know That I'm Alive" seems like a "Dream Street" song.
I prefer the album version of "Any Time, Any Place".
I pretty much agree with you rankings, though, EXCEPT for "Unbreakable". To me, her top four albums are "Rhythm Nation 1814", "Control", "Janet." and "Velvet Rope".
Thanks for sharing your thoughts

First Video you should react to is LOVE WILL NEVER DO. 😆
Noted!
"Dream Street" is also my least favorite, BUT "You Don't Stand Another Chance" was the BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But, in all fairness, it was at the beginning of her career and she didn't have the input that she had starting with "Control". Before "Control" she was being "controlled" by her daddy.
Her debut album was GREAT! Only three songs. . .are you kidding? No, sir! I didn't skip ONE song on the album. If course, I'm 53 so the album was in MY time. But maybe you need to listen to the album again with this in mind; IT WAS THE 80'S!!! Please don't compare her earlier works to "Control" and after. Of course, the later albums were much stronger. but remember, the direction she went in was not her own; it was her father's. That's why her "Control" album was so important. It was her breakaway from the "bubblegum" image that Joe wanted her to have.

Finally someone else who thinks Janet. is the best album of her, it's just so good from start to finish, not a single skip!
You ranked janet jackson singles
To much to rank!
I just came here to disagree with your opinion on Discipline 😝
lol
Can you please react to TLC's 5 albums?
Noted
I was never a fan of any of her newer stuff post the super bowl. Her 90's stuff was so good. Her stuff with Kayne and Nelly just never really grabbed my attention when I was in college. It was a complete shock for a lot of people after the super bowl.It was either her or Madonna to see what the trendy now/ pop song would be. I really think that Beyonce took over her spot. Her newer stuff wasn't as good as her 90s stuff and her stuff with Tupac and Busta rhymes lol! For me, she lost her spark at being trendy at around the Super Bowl controversy. I remember Discipline was her comeback (so to speak in the black community) and those Tyler Perry movies. I started listening to her again. The Velvet Rope album was also so cool/trendy. Nobody was doing what she did during that time period, if that makes sense lol! There was no Gaga or Beyoncé. You're a-little younger than me, and I agree with you 100%. Doesn’t really matter was also a huge hit and one of my favorites.
Thanks for sharing!
@@SalRocha No problem! I like hearing it from your perspective. It brings back a lot of good memories! You also would have really enjoyed Aaliyah and Toni Braxton during that time period. You would have loved junior high/ high school during that time period. Keep up the good work! I really enjoyed this review and discussion.
As much of a Janet fan that I am, I have to admit there's a couple few songs I just had to skip and still do skip

think the pleasure principle is filler. listened to start anew. not too crazy about it. for me it doesn't go with album. it sounds like it should have been on the flashdance soundtrack. I bought the control in 1986 and so it has a certain nostalgia. that could be part of my opinion about start anew.
Thanks for sharing!
Luv the mood board of artists behind you beautiful celebrities behind you with the best quality singers you can never make these type of artist again I see Madonna on there I see Celine Dion I see Janet Jackson I see Mariah Carey I see so many more beautiful artist on their Katy Perry I just don't make these type of artist anymore
