I looked up how much it costs to update an RIAA cert and it's only $350 per title.
I get that Janet's been indie since 2010, but you think her team and Universal could come to an agreement for them to shell out $3,500 to update her studio albums and compilations. Heck make it $4,200 to see if debut and Dream Street are Gold.
EDIT: By my calculations, her albums are under-certified by 15-16 million BEFORE including streaming and digital track downloads.

SMH! I wish Janet's team cared more about her legacy.

Love how Victoria is a total fangirl, and yes..there definitely should be an Alright remix where Janet makes an appearance. Like when Mariah appeared on Latto's Big Energy remix.

Only if it's going to be properly promoted and pushed. I'm tired of these "remixes" with legendary artists that get randomly thrown out. |

I went to her Brooklyn concert on Wednesday and although it was good, there was something missing.
I dunno...perhaps it lacked energy?
She looked great though.

Saw her last week and couldnt agree more. The highs were high. The lows were very low.

Attended DC show! LOVED IT! She definitely dances less. It seems like she saved the heavy dancing for the iconic dance breakdown (IF, MYM, AFY, etc). but I get it--she is 58. I appreciated that she gave us more live singing than normal AND interaction with the crowd. Also appreciate her adding in some album cuts.

Got to see her last night in Charlotte. Just insane! She is outdoing the majority of these 20-something girlies, and makes it look like it's nothing, even at 58. I'm so glad I had a chance to see this legend. Will absolutely see her again if/when she's on tour again.

Mother is singing more and dancing less (but grooving just as fine). That does not mean her command of the stage is in any way diminished. If anything, this tour displays a different facet of her talent, for which she has not always been respected.

JanFam, I have a Club Mixes mystery to solve and since Disco is permabanned, I'm not sure how to go about solving it.
In Summer 2008, "Rock With U" made it to #20 on Billboard's Club Play chart, but I can find no evidence of official, private, unreleased, or unofficial club mixes from 2008 to support what was being played in the clubs that caused it to chart. Does anyone have any idea?

Does anyone have any idea? There were no official mixes released for that one. So it was probably just the album version or a variation on the album version. I know dance radio played the album version and the Ultimix DJ promos had an extended version based on the album version. There were a ton of unofficial ones floating around back then though. But if a song is dancey enough on its own, it doesn't need club mixes to chart. Here's the extended Ultimix version. |

And this is why she remains the one I connect with the most since childhood! I'm not much of a talker myself.

Was at the closing show in Phoenix on Tuesday night. I hadn’t seen her since Up Close & Personal in 2011. It was a great show. She looked & sounded fantastic. This year has felt like the summer of 1990 with her & Madonna both on tour.
