Janet Jackson Number Ones Cd 2 Zip

4/28/2019 
Collection of Janet Jackson
Few celebrity siblings can emerge from the shadows of their already famous relations to become superstars in their own right and with their own distinct personalities. That's exactly what Janet Jackson did in becoming one of the biggest female pop and R&B stars of the '80s and '90s. Since her breakthrough in 1986 with the album Control, Jackson's career as a hitmaker has been a model of consistency, rivaling Madonna and Whitney Houston in terms of pop chart success over the long haul. A big part of the reason was that Jackson kept her level of quality control very high; her singles were always expertly crafted, with indelible pop hooks and state-of-the-art production that kept up with contemporary trends in urban R&B. Once established, her broad-based appeal never really dipped all that much; she was able to avoid significant career missteps, musical and otherwise, and successfully shifted her image from a strong, independent young woman to a sexy, mature adult. With a string of multi-platinum albums under her belt, she showed no signs of slowing down in the new millennium.
Janet Damita Jo Jackson was born May 16, 1966, in Gary, IN. She was the youngest of nine children in the Jackson family, and her older brothers had already begun performing together as the Jackson 5 by the time she was born. Bitten by the performing bug at a young age, she first appeared on-stage with the Jackson 5 at age seven, and began a sitcom acting career at the age of ten in 1977, when producer Norman Lear selected her to join the cast of Good Times. She remained there until 1979, and subsequently appeared on Diff'rent Strokes (1981-1982) and A New Kind of Family. In 1982, pushed by her father into trying a singing career, Jackson released her self-titled first album on A&M; a couple of singles scraped the lower reaches of the charts, but on the whole, it made very little noise. She was cast in the musical series Fame in 1983; the following year, she issued her second album, Dream Street, which sold even more poorly than its predecessor. Upon turning 18, Jackson rebelled against her parents' close supervision, eloping with a member of another musical family, singer James DeBarge. However, the relationship quickly hit the rocks and Jackson wound up moving back into her parents' home and having the marriage annulled.
Jackson took some time to rethink her musical career, and her father hired her a new manager, John McClain, who isolated his young charge to train her as a dancer (and make her lose weight). McClain hooked Jackson up with producers/writers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, whom she'd seen perform as members of the Minneapolis funk outfit the Time. Jackson collaborated with Jam and Lewis on most of the tracks for her next album, Control, which presented her as a confident, tough-minded young woman (with a soft side and a sense of humor) taking charge of her life for the first time. In support of Jackson's new persona, Jam and Lewis crafted a set of polished, computerized backing tracks with slamming beats that owed more to hard, hip-hop-tinged funk and urban R&B than Janet's older brother Michael's music. Control became an out-of-the-box hit, and eventually spun off six singles, the first five of which -- 'What Have You Done for Me Lately,' the catch phrase-inspiring 'Nasty,' the number one 'When I Think of You,' the title track, and the ballad 'Let's Wait Awhile' -- hit the Top Five on the pop charts. Jackson was hailed as a role model for young women and Control eventually sold over five million copies, establishing Jackson as not just a star, but her own woman. It also made Jam and Lewis a monstrously in-demand production team.
For the hotly anticipated follow-up, McClain wanted to push Jackson toward more overtly sexual territory, to which she objected strenuously. Instead, she began collaborating with Jam and Lewis on more socially conscious material, which formed the backbone of 1989's Rhythm Nation 1814 (the '1814' purportedly stood for either the letters 'R' and 'N' or the year 'The Star-Spangled Banner' was written). Actually, save for the title track, most of the record's singles were bright and romantically themed; four of them -- 'Miss You Much,' 'Escapade,' 'Black Cat,' and 'Love Will Never Do (Without You)' -- hit number one, and three more -- 'Rhythm Nation,' 'Alright,' and 'Come Back to Me' -- reached the Top Five, making Jackson the first artist ever to produce seven Top Five hits off of one album (something not even her brother Michael had accomplished). Aside from a greater use of outside samples, Rhythm Nation's sound largely resembled that of Control, but was just as well crafted, and listeners embraced it enthusiastically, buying over six million copies. Jackson undertook her first real tour (she'd appeared at high schools around the country in 1982) in support of the album and it was predictably a smashing success. In 1991, Jackson capitalized on her success by jumping from A&M to Virgin for a reported $32 million, and also secretly married choreographer and longtime boyfriend René Elizondo.
Once on Virgin, Jackson set about revamping her sound and image. Her 1992 duet with Luther Vandross from the Mo' Money soundtrack, 'The Best Things in Life Are Free,' was a major R&B hit, also reaching the pop Top Ten. The following year, she also resumed her acting career, co-starring in acclaimed director (and former junior high classmate) John Singleton's Poetic Justice, along with rapper Tupac Shakur. But neither really hinted at the sexy, seductive, fully adult persona she unveiled with 1993's janet., her Virgin debut. Jackson trumpeted her new image with a notorious Rolling Stone cover photo, in which her topless form was covered by a pair of hands belonging to an unseen 'friend.' Musically, Jam and Lewis set aside the synthesized funk of their first two albums with Jackson in favor of warm, inviting, gently undulating grooves. The album's lead single, the slinky 'That's the Way Love Goes,' became Jackson's biggest hit ever, spending eight weeks at number one. It was followed by a predictably long parade of Top Ten hits -- 'If,' the number one ballad 'Again,' 'Because of You,' 'Any Time, Any Place,' 'You Want This.' janet.'s debut showing at number one made it her third straight chart-topping album, and it went on to sell nearly seven million copies.
In 1995, Janet and Michael teamed up for the single 'Scream,' which was supported by an elaborate, award-winning, space-age video that, upon completion, ranked as the most expensive music video ever made. The single debuted at number five on the pop charts, but gradually slid down from there. In 1996, A&M issued a retrospective of her years at the label, Design of a Decade 1986-1996; it featured the Virgin hit 'That's the Way Love Goes' and a few new tracks, one of which, 'Runaway,' became a Top Five hit. Jackson also signed a new contract with Virgin for a reported $80 million. Yet while working on her next album, Jackson reportedly suffered an emotional breakdown, or at least a severe bout with depression; she later raised eyebrows when she talked in several interviews about the cleansing value of coffee enemas as part of her treatment. Her next album, The Velvet Rope, appeared in 1997 and was touted as her most personal and intimate work to date. The Velvet Rope sought to combine the sensuality of janet. with the more socially conscious parts of Rhythm Nation, mixing songs about issues like domestic abuse, AIDS, and homophobia with her most sexually explicit songs ever. Critical opinion on the album was divided; some applauded her ambition, while others found the record too bloated. The lead American single 'Together Again,' an elegy for AIDS victims, was a number one hit; also popular on the radio was 'Got 'til It's Gone,' which featured rapper Q-Tip and a sample of Joni Mitchell over a reggae beat. 'I Get Lonely,' featuring Blackstreet, was another big hit; but on the whole, The Velvet Rope didn't prove to be the blockbuster singles bonanza that its predecessors were, which was probably why its sales stalled at around three million copies.
Jackson toured the world again, and stayed on the charts in 1999 with the Top Five Busta Rhymes duet 'What's It Gonna Be?!'; her appearance in the video remade her as a glitzy, artificially costumed, single-name diva. In 2000, she appeared in the Eddie Murphy comedy Nutty Professor II: The Klumps, and her soundtrack contribution, 'Doesn't Really Matter,' became a number one single. Unfortunately, Jackson's marriage to Elizondo had become strained and the couple divorced in 2000, sparking a court battle over her musical income. Jackson returned with a new album, All for You, in 2001, which largely continued the sensual tone of janet. and The Velvet Rope; it debuted at number one, selling over 600,000 copies in its first week alone. The title track was issued as the album's first single and quickly topped the charts, followed by another sizable hit in 'Someone to Call My Lover.'
While Jackson spent much of 2001 and 2002 on the road supporting All for You, she also found time for some guest appearances, most notably with Beenie Man on his Tropical Storm LP and Justin Timberlake on Justified. By 2003 she was back in the studio, working once again with Jam and Lewis on tracks for a new album; additional producers included Dallas Austin and Kanye West. Later that year, it was revealed Jackson would take part in an MTV-produced extravaganza during halftime at the Super Bowl. 2004 began with an Internet leak of the upbeat Austin production 'Just a Little While.' The singer's camp rolled with the punches, offering the track to radio as an authorized digital download, but the buzz this business caused was minuscule in comparison to the nightmare union of free exposure and bad publicity that Jackson's next adventure caused. Appearing at halftime of Super Bowl XXXVIII as scheduled, Jackson performed 'All for You' and 'Rhythm Nation' before bringing out surprise guest Timberlake for a duet on his hit 'Rock Your Body.' But the real surprise came at song's end, when a gesture from Timberlake caused Jackson's costume to tear, exposing her right, pierced breast on live television to hundreds of millions of viewers.
The incident caused furious backpedaling and apologizing from Timberlake, Jackson, the NFL, CBS, and MTV, which swore no previous knowledge of the so-called 'wardrobe malfunction,' and led to speculation over how Damita Jo -- Jackson's upcoming album and her first in three years -- would be received. But while the controversy gave Jackson both grief and a bit of free advertising, it was also the impetus for a national debate on public indecency. A federal commission was set up to investigate prurience, the FCC enacted tougher crackdowns on TV and radio programs broadcasting questionable content, and suddenly everyone from pundits to politicians to the man in the street had an opinion on Janet Jackson's chest. Later that March, the singer quietly started making the talk show rounds. She was still apologizing for the incident, but she was also promoting Damita Jo, which Virgin issued at the end of the month. Largely considered a disappointment, the album nonetheless sold over two million copies worldwide and earned three Grammy nominations. 20 Y.O. followed two years later, and though it was reviewed more favorably than Damita Jo, it was off the Billboard 200 album chart after 15 weeks. Jermaine Dupri, Jackson's love interest and the executive producer of the album, was so upset over Virgin's lack of support that he left his post as president of Virgin's urban division. Dupri moved to Island, and so did Jackson; in 2008, Jackson released her tenth studio album, Discipline. Allmusic by Steve Huey

Number Ones collects singles from her third studio album Control (1986) to her 10th studio album Discipline (2008), and was made possible as a joint venture between Universal and EMI Music. The album's single, 'Make Me', was made available for digital download on September 22, 2009. On December 22, 'Make Me' became her 19th number-one hit single on the BillboardHot Dance Club Songs chart.[2] The compilation album was acclaimed by music critics, who praised her catalogue and influence in the music industry.

It was further promoted with the Number Ones, Up Close and Personal Tour in 2011, which visited North America, Europe, Asia, Oceania and Africa.

Background[edit]

In September 2009, Janet Jackson performed 'Scream' on the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards as part of a medley tribute to Michael Jackson, who died three months earlier. Following this, 'Make Me' was released on Jackson's official website as an audio stream for those who joined the site's e-mail newsletter.[3] On September 22, 2009 it was released as a digital download for purchase. Although claims were made that 'Make Me' is a tribute song to her late brother, Michael Jackson's 1979 single 'Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough', Jackson later stated in an interview with Ryan Seacrest it is not, despite the similarity of the lyrics in the song's outro.[4] In October 2009, UMe issued a press release stating 'Make Me' would be included in Jackson's second greatest hits album, comprising 33 of her global number one singles. The two-disc set spans chart-topping singles from Control (1986) to Discipline (2008) across the Billboard Hot 100, Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, Hot Dance Club Songs, Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks, and international charts such as Oricon and the South African Singles Chart.[5]

Reception[edit]

Commercial[edit]

Number Ones debuted at number 22 on the Billboard 200, selling 40,374 copies (80,748 units) in its first week,[6] and has since sold 273,000 (546,000 units) in the US.[7][8] The Best was certified Gold in the UK for sales in excess of 100,000. 'Make Me' became Jackson's nineteenth number one on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart.[9] She became the first artist to earn number one singles on the Dance/Club play chart across the last four decades, starting from the 1980s to the 2010s (her first achieved in 1986).[10]

Number Ones received universal acclaim from music critics. Sal Cinquemani of Slant Magazine gave the album four-and-a-half stars, commenting 'that the songs on Janet Jackson's first-ever comprehensive hits collection, Number Ones, have been sequenced in chronological order only magnifies the impact she had on late-'80s and early-'90s pop, when she helped define the sound of Top 40 radio along with the likes of Madonna, Prince, and her brother Michael.'[13] He also comments on the commercial decline of her recent work, stating '[b]ut just as Number Ones's sequencing highlights Janet's impressive early years, it also underscores her startlingly abrupt decline..and the 'hits' from her last three albums are a mere footnote here.'[13] Andy Kellman of Allmusic remarked: 'Say what you want about Janet peaking with Jam & Lewis during the latter half of the '80s—to be fair, the argument is valid—but she did rack up a career's worth of solid hits during the years that followed. Even if they were not as sonically innovative and lacked the same amount of pop appeal of the Control/Rhythm Nation-era singles, they clearly made a significant impact and have aged well.'[11] Val Christopher of Rockstar Weekly commented, 'A look back at Jackson's storied career provides more than ample reason for her being one of the world's most recognizable people. Number Ones opens with a string of Jackson's best and most memorable tracks. 'What Have You Done For Me Lately', 'Nasty', 'Control', 'Miss You Much' and perhaps her finest single, 'Rhythm Nation'.'[12]

Singles[edit]

  • 'Make Me': It was released as the first and only single from the album on September 22, 2009. It is the only new song included on the album. The song was presented as an audio stream to those who joined her official mailing list in September, later that month it was released via digital download. The song failed to chart on the US Billboard Hot 100, but it reached the number one position on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart and it peaked at number 71 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. It entered the top 50 in Italy, the top 20 in Japan and the top 75 in UK.

To celebrate the release of Number Ones, Universal Music Group (UMG) and Flash Mob America organized three fan gatherings on November 14, 2009 in Los Angeles.[14][15] Kyle Anderson of MTV reported fans' gatherings in various Los Angeles locations 'to dance and pay tribute to some of the veteran diva's best dance moves and songs.'[16] Jackson made an appearance at the gathering which took place at The Grove at Farmers Market.[16] ABC's In the Spotlight with Robin Roberts interviewed Jackson in a one-hour interview special that aired on November 18, 2009.[17] A few days later, singer performed an eight-minute medley of six hits during the American Music Awards of 2009. It included 'Control', 'Miss You Much', 'What Have You Done for Me Lately', 'If', 'Make Me', and finished with 'Together Again'. At the end of the performance, the singer received applause and standing ovation from the audience.[18][19] Jackson traveled to the United Kingdom to further promote the album. She performed 'Make Me' on The X Factor results show on December 6, 2009.[20] She pre-recorded the performance so she could perform as the headliner of the Jingle Bell Ball in London.[21] She closed the concert with a medley of her greatest hits including 'Make Me', wearing half hareem-pant, half skirt concoction, jackets and high-top trainers.[22]

On February 4, 2011, Jackson embarked on her sixth concert tour to further promote Number Ones, entitled Number Ones: Up Close and Personal.[23] It visited Asia, North America, Europe, Australia, Africa, and South America. Jackson traveled to 35 different cities selected by fans, one chosen for each of her number one hits. The tour took an organic and intimate approach, excluding the elaborate theatrics and pyrotechnics her concerts have become infamous for, focusing on her musicality and choreography. Fans were to vote on cities via her official website. She honored 20 people who performed service in their community with the '20 Under 20' contest and dedicated one hit to each city during every show.[24] In December, Jackson announced the first date in Wan Chai, Hong Kong.[23] In April, Jackson extended the tour's North American and European legs into the fall due to massive sellouts.[25][26] She also extended the tour into Australia, Africa, and South America.[27][28] The show's intimate aura was praised among critics, many commending Jackson's showmanship in contrast to her more recent contemporaries.[29] The majority of the tour had completely sold out.[30] The tour achieved several attendance records,[31] and grossed US$60 million in total.[32]
