ROGER FRIEDMAN PREVIEWS JANET'S ALBUMJanet: What She's Done for us Lately You know Janet Jackson can not get a break. She’s always stayed away from her family, but they keep pulling her back in. In January 2004, right after Michael was arrested for child molestation and conspiracy, Janet played the Super Bowl with Justin Timberlake to promote her upcoming “Damita Jo” album. That’s when the “wardrobe malfunction” happened. Timberlake danced away and Janet was left holding the bag. “Damita Jo” and a subsequent album tanked. She gained and lost 60 pounds. It was a bad time. Now comes “Discipline” with a couple of really hot singles, set for February 26th. On “Discipline,” all the ambiguous stuff is gone. Janet is back to hooks, catchy rhythms and defined singing. Besides the single, “Feedback,” I heard four tracks yesterday that were more like the Janet of “Control” and “Rhythm Nation.” The up tempo numbers, “Rollercoaster” and “Rock With U,” are killer. The former is produced by Rodney Jerkins, a favorite of Michael’s. Ne Yo, the hottest producer right now in R&B (remember the Neptunes?), contributed the dancing “Rock W U” and a breezy, jazzy “Pillow Talk” like love song. Another almost rock/R&B mid tempo ballad, called “Greatest X,” shows off Janet’s Michaelish vocals and a memorable piano line. If the rest of the album follows suit, Janet Jackson may be back in a big way. But what’s the significance of Janet recording a song called “Rock With U” when Michael once had a huge hit with the same name? Only a family therapist might know that answer. Anyway, my money is on “Rollercoaster.”www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,330759,00.html

Even Roger is saying that "Rollercoaster" will be the big hit off of this album.
