Listen to Janet Jackson's new single

[SBTB Geek]

Here it is, it's called "Love Me For a Little While." It's very different from everything else she has done.

Janet, Hilary called..she wants her song back.

good god that songs a load of ****.

[Dean Winchester]

JANET RULES!!

will post my responce to the song after I hear it. I just hope her new cd is better than All For You was. AFY had some alright songs, but it was way too "sex-heavy", 30 mins straight of the album are back to back to back to back to back "baby making songs" (as Janet put it)

[Dean Winchester]

I like it.

Not on par with the material off Rhythm Nation or The Velvet Rope, but it is catchy. And I think an r&b artist as big as Janet releasing a leadoff single that doesn't either have a rapper OR sound like your typical r&b crap is a good thing. It'd help save the industry because I think just about everyone is tired of the wave of hip hop-tainted pop and r&b that has been plaguing airwaves for about 3 years now.

[Hollow]

no.

[Janice Johnson]

It is a good song. What album is it going to be off? If it weren't for SBTB Geek, I wouldn't have known who it was, but I would have thought the voice was familiar. And how does that song sound like Hilary Duff's song?

[Mr. Stefani]

If you think thats a good song, I feel so sorry for you.

well, you've said before you are NOT a "diva fan". So don't expect to like a Janet Jackson song if not. Same reason why I don't like hip hop, so you can't expect me to like Jay-Z or Ludacris

The song is much better than anything from All For You.

No, I think she has some catchy songs. That song is just a hot mess. Not something someone with her talent should be putting out.

If it's been "plaguing" the airwaves for 3 years, one would assume that NOT just about everyone is tired of it. There's an audience for everything, you know.

Haven't heard it. I guess I have to wait tell the Superbowl to hear it. Anyway, since her last album "All for You", there have been alot of good songs from young R&B artist such as Beyonce and Ashanti. I'd be interested to hear how the vetern Miss Jackson responds to her younger counterparts.

This new album has a tough challenge to top albums such as "Dangerously in Love."

it's gotten to the point that I know a lot of people who have actually been emailing stations telling them to ease up. Teen pop plagued radio about 3 years too, who WASN'T sick of The Backstreet Boys by the time they'd been out that long? Yes, Outkast has the #1 album right now, but HEY YA is definately not your stereotypical hip hop song like what's been on the charts since J. Lo called up Ja Rule.

Plus, I also posted an article here a week or two back that top 40 radio stations are beginning to realize they've taken this hip hop craze too far and that they're losing listeners big time. R&B/Hip hop will always play a part of top 40 music, like it's always have, but the days of it monopolizing the singles charts are numbered because programmers are beginning to realize how much they've overplayed it.

No one genre of music can monopolize radio for too long before people scream "enough already". Most recently it was teen pop, then it was grunge before that, then dance-pop before that, then disco before that.... Once radio shafts valid music because it's not that "hot and trendy" genre, you know it's glory days are numbered because people are getting tired of too much of it.

Beyonce was alright as a member of Destiny's Child, but as a solo artist, she became just another "call rappers I've slept with before to hook me up with a #1 hit" act. It's a shame too. What turns me off to a lot of today's r&b (hell, even compared to the r&b that was out in 1999-2000) is that it is way too reliant on guest rappers. If Beyonce didn't need any guests (except Wyclef Jean, ON THEIR VERY FIRST SINGLE) to make Destiny's Child a sensation, why need them for every single freaking track now?

Names and numbers, please. I'm doing an investigation.
