Did ya'll know Jackie, Marlon, Randy did some solo albums besides Jermaine & Michael? I went to Artistdirect.com & checked it out. Jackie did 2 solo albums. He did one in 73 that i didn't even know about. Marlon did one solo album in 87. Randy did a solo album but i don't know the album title & what yr it came out. I do remember him having a song called Happy & i know it came out in the 80's. I also checked out some info on Rebbie & Latoya to see if they did any albums. Rebbie did 5 albums. I thought she only did one album called Centipede. I remember Centipede song was her biggest hit that came out in the early 80's. Latoya did 8 albums. I'm surprised she did that many hahahahahahahahaha. Ain't nobody buy them LOL. People be sleepin on Jermaine's singin skills. Jermaine did some solo albums i liked such as Let's Get Serious & his self titled album that came out in 84 that had the hits Do What U Do & Tell Me I'm Not Dreamin with Michael Jackson. I remember he did a song for the Perfect soundtrack, the movie that starred John Travolta & Jamie Lee Curtis in the 80's. He did the title track which was a big hit for him. Michael's brothers never got enough credit in my opinion for having great voices. I think his brothers could sing but the attention was always on Michael. Jermaine should've been the only one besides Michael & Janet though to make solo albums LOL.

The only ones I consider talented are Jermaine, Michael, and of course, Janet. I can't believe the other ones were given record contracts.

I've actually got (or at least had) a Latoya Jackson album, yes I admit it. It was one produced by Full Force, who I always liked back in their heyday. It wasn't meant to be a comedy album, but it was pretty funny. I've also got Randy & The Gypsies, an album named after the band Randy Jackson was performing with, circa '89/'90. (Not American Idol Randy, by the way.) That one is actually pretty good. I even have a 12-inch house remix single of a song Jackie Jackson did in '89 called "Cruzin'". Marlon deserves some props, he was the choreographer of the group, and I think he was good at coming up with songs with funky dance grooves like "Body" from the Jacksons Victory album and the songs he produced for Janet's "Dream Street" album. I agree Jermaine is an underrated vocalist. Listen to "Do What You Do" and imagine if it was Marvin Gaye singing it, he's not that far off.

LOL@SBTB Geek saying the other family members besides Janet, Michael, Jermaine shouldn't have had record contracts. Vashti1999 so that's the name of the group Randy Jackson formed when he went solo? Wasn't his first single off that album called Happy? Randy sang by himself on The Jacksons One More Chance song on their Victory cd which is a very nice slow song. I remember The Jacksons Body video. Marlon sang on that by himself. Jermaine's Do What U Do song is very nice. I remember the video. Black model Iman was in that video. I haven't seen it in a long time. I was listening to Jermaine's Burnin Hot & Feelin Free songs a couple of days ago off his Let's Get Serious album. I think Let's Get Serious & his self titled album that came out in 84 are his best albums. I haven't heard his other solo albums.

well, I dunno much about her, but I do think Rebbie Jackson did have a good one-hit-wonder track with Centipede.

I'm still waiting for LaToya Jackson to duet with Yoko Ono, they're about on the same page
