Exactly. Janet Jackson, Prince, Michael Jackson and others understood that social commentary didn’t have to mean sacrificing musicality or accessibility. They could put politics, race, inequality, and social unrest into funk, pop, R&B, and dance music, and you could still DANCE to it. That kind of range feels much rarer now.

realistically do you think janet’s next album could sell over 100k first week? she did with unbreakable with no promo. as long as it’s #1 idrc what the first weeks was. a #1 would make her only black artist to a #1 album in 5 consecutive decades.. 80s, 90s, 00s, 10s, and 20s.

That introduction when Janet Jackson hit the stage was legendary. Now that's how you bring an icon on stage to crown another icon.

Teyana Taylor was moved to tears as her idol arrived to present her with the Icon Award.🥹🏆

when i tell them “i like janet jackson” and they expect me to play all for you but i play this instead

[James Harkness @ijamesharkness]

Before there was Katy Perry concerts & Miley Cyrus concerts - there was Janet and The Whimsical Section 😁

I’d react the same exact way if Janet Jackson introduced me for Icon of the Year! #BETAwards

[Janet Jackson @JanetJackson]

Congratulations again @TEYANATAYLOR! What a talent!! It was so nice to spend some time together. @Kehlani, @durandbernarr & @destinCONRAD, it was really nice to see you too ♥️

Straight Outta The 90s! Janet Jackson attended the opening of RH London, The Gallery in Mayfair yesterday.

🇧🇷 1993, é você? Janet Jackson parecia ter saído diretamente dos anos 90 ao comparecer na inauguração da RH London, The Gallery, em Mayfair, ontem.

HER DAY!

[BET @BET]

In honor of this icon's day, we’re revisiting the moment Janet Jackson made her powerful return to the stage at the 2015 BET Awards after years away from the spotlight. Honored with the inaugural Ultimate Icon Music Dance Visual Award, Janet was celebrated by a new generation of performers while reminding the world why her influence never left the culture.
