This song is forever a vibe

The sample is from "Big Yellow Taxi" by Joni Mitchell. The voices of all three meshed really well on this track. Janet brought neo-soul to the pop world.

This song was part of one of Janet's most personal albums, so that's why you can tell a stark difference. This video highlights the apartheid in South Africa. Janet spent some time in Africa before this album. You'll see more of this in her video "Together Again," which I recommend for a react.

I am so grateful that you give Janet a chance. I feel like the younger generation writes her off and she gets no credit from the establishment. Thank you for recognizing her worth, her contribution .

The video actually won her a Grammy. Very iconic!

Fun fact: Mark Romanek directed this music video which won a Grammy. He also directed Michael & Janet's "Scream" and other amazing & very artistic music videos for En Vogue, Lenny Kravitz, Madonna, Beck, Fiona Apple, Coldplay, and more

Janet Jackson- Pleasure Principle

Thats the magic of Janet. She always switches it up

She’s the reason we have alternative R&B.. this entire album was that. She may not have invented it but she made it popular.. she’s amazing

This song came from THE Velvet Rope Album. That’s an album you’d have to experience. Janets sound changed on this album because she was going through a deep depression at the time. The album is very dark for a pop/r&b album. It explores self evaluation/exploration, depression, abuse, sexuality, bondage, AIDS...and sonically, it’s a masterpiece. it’s one of the most unique albums done by an pop artist. Check it out. U have a good ear too. Got Til It’s Gone does include a J Dilla sample, mixed with Joni Mitchell. Janets super production team, Jimmy Jan & Terry Lewis, produced this & many of her hits, she wrote the lyrics. The other songs from this album were I Get So Lonely, Together Again, Go Deep, Everytime and You. They all have videos.

Janet dabbling in a lot of Neo-soul and alternative RNB in this album (Velvet Rope).

The Velvet Rope album is a masterpiece....definitely check it out!!!

You gotta do Janet Jackson “I get so lonely” and “Together Again” off the same album as this record you reacted to Velvet Rope, one of my favorite albums from her.

This entire Velvet Rope album is FYAH. I think you’d love it. The I Get Lonely video would be a good next reaction

Busta Rhymes featuring Janet - what's it gonna be. Music video is fire trust me.

It's a Joni Mitchell sample. Cuz she never lies!! 😂🤷🏽‍♀️

Love your Janet reactions. The song samples legendary singer Joni Mitchell's "Big Yellow Taxi." I like that she's mentioned in the song and shown in the video (0:37).

Great reaction! Its one of my favourite songs. The video itself is based on south african apartheid, a racial seggregation system that existed from around 1940s to 1990s. The video represents freedom against the segregation, hence the bottle breaking on the sign at the end of the video. Janet also won a grammy for this video. Please react to "I get Lonely" by Janet.

She kills each video dance or not. Janet hands down has been top 1 or 2 in videography throughout any other artist career. You can take any of her videos and they would come close to anyone or be light speed ahead. To me she is the Jackson 5 as a female

Janet Jackson - Together Again.

samples Joni Mitchell big yellow taxi - shes the white lady in the tv in the beginning and I agree it has a thats the way love goes vibe to it; I always forget Qtip and Janet worked on the movie poetic justice together

“Smooth Criminal” by Michael Jackson! this music video is probably my all time favorite from his :)

Love this song. You should do “I get lonely” next 👍🏼

Makes me feel so young.The 90s were so great g.Thank you Jack

Busta Rhymes & Janet Jackson - what’s it gonna be

Janet introduced the alternative R&B to mainstream radios.. she’s the reason we have artists like Solonge

“You Rock My World” by Michael Jackson is also another great one!

Joanie Mitchell was the song also playing. Janet and Q tip kicked for awhile! Chemistry was 🔥

Happy birthday Janet Jackson!! she still an incredible artist.....

Her album VELVET ROPE is one of the best albums in history!

This is one of my favorite Janet songs of allllllll time.

All nite dont stop janet jackson

Man, I wanted to *live* in this video as a teenager. I wanted to go to these places, join these parties, wear those clothes. Sophisticated is the word I'm looking for.

Joni Mitchell big yellow taxi sample. I love what Janet what janet did with this song. Song is about regret breaking up with someone. dont know what you got til it's gone. I can really relate to this track

Michael Jackson - Ben. A young Michael Jackson sings a song about a rat

This was one of the dopest albums she put out.

“Black or White”, “Jam”, “Ghosts”, “Bad”, and “Human Nature (no music video though i’m pretty sure)” are all great songs!!

Yasss! More Janet songs and videos please! 🙏🏻

Keep it going with more of the legend Janet Jackson reactions.

Hey Jack, Try to find Janet’s ALL FOR YOU in HQ and react to it ✨ It was one of the biggest hits in 2001 🔥🔥🔥

Fun fact Q tip and janetnused to date back in the early 90s

I believe they filmed this in South Africa? It was supposed to represent the time during Apartheid.

Janet wanted the video to show a background abt the African vibes. Also, in her own words -- "'Got 'Til It's Gone' is about a great lesson learned - appreciate what you have while you have it. In my life, I try to take nothing for granted, even if I don't always succeed." Gave a similar sentiment, saying its theme "echoes the old proverb 'you don't miss the water till the river runs dry'" and also abt the pain she endured growing up and abt her own self esteem issues

I love that you love Janet she so underrated

Just listened to this several times lately and feel that it could be released today and do better then when it was slept on.. my opinion 😊

True Janet fans and understand this entire vibe here. We love this Janet as well as nasty

you should react to Janet music video Go Deep.

I really enjoy your channel! Just a little FYI on Janet: The thing with Janet is that music was optional for her because she was born into it. I point this out because Janet only made albums when she had something to say from her life. So there would normally be about 4 year gaps between albums and each album became more/less her diary of what she was going through at that time in her life. She writes and produces all of her work (with Jimmy Jam/Terry) - all backgrounds, melodies, harmonies, everything - is Janet singing. Because she isn't a power vocalist, she maintains the same singing volume for every track (which allows her to dance and sing at the same time - she thinks about choreography when she's making the songs which influences how she sings each song. Basically the breathing of the song needs to match the breathing of the choreography, which allows her to remain in key when singing live - which is why people think she's lip-syncing when she performs live but she's not. It's in her breathing. Since you're going out of order in looking at her videos I would suggest: *I Get Lonely *What's it Gonna Be (Feat. Busta Rhymes) *Made For Now (Feat Daddy Yankee) *The Pleasure Principle *Dammn Baby *Miss You Much & Miss You Much (chair routine) {two separate videos} - watch back to back. There is a dance break at the end of the video that's cut from the official video so you would have to pull up both videos and play them back to back. There are so many great music videos with Janet - you're in for one visually/vocally beautiful musical voyage.

“Joni Mitchell never lie”. 😍

"The Velvet Rope" is a really special album... it gets better and better over time. This is one of my all time favorite music videos for it's beautiful authenticity and originality.

Janet Jackson - No Sleeep (with 3 e’’s) Think you will like it 👌🏼

One of my favorite songs by her ❤️ it’s amazing

Another video that shares this same vibe is "Someone to Call my Lover". P.S. you are AMAZING at what you do btw and it helps that your voice is super soothing.

That's my jam ❤️

Glad you did this one. I don't know if it's even possible to have one favorite Janet song, but this is definitely in my top 5.

Mariah Carey ft. Joe & Nas - Thank God I Found You (Make It Last Remix) Dear Jack, Please react to it. This is super dope.

Great reaction! Can u react to I Get So Lonely? Her best song.

A sequel to "That's The Way Love Goes". The comparisons to J dilla and Erykah Badu. The very stylish video where every image is a good shot. Jack's always ON POINT with the comments. He looks like he enjoyed it a lot too.

This is one of favourite jams of all time , def top 20 rnb

Busta Rhymes ft Janet Jackson- What's It gonna Be

Jack next react to Janet Jackson - The Pleasure Principle. One of her best music videos in my opinion

The fact that you said this reminds you of ‘That’s The Way Love Goes’ is a great observation because Janet does a melody of these two songs at her concerts! Kudos to you on noticing that 💯 #JanFam ❤️

Yes thank you for doing more Janet! 🖤🥂

Janet Jackson- runaway

This might be my favorite Janet Jackson track ever.Smooth like Sade.

U should do Monica - with you and never can say goodbye off her miss thang album

I love this song soooooo much.

Interesting you mention Dilla because this beat was produced by The Ummah (J Dilla, Q-Tip, Ali Shaheed Muhammad), although they were uncredited on the album's liner notes. This lack of accreditation led Dilla to remix this song with the title, "Jay Dee's Revenge Mix". You may be interested in giving that a listen at some point. Peace.

That is a classic janet record shw writes her music based off what is the going through in her life

YALL TRIPPIN!!!!!!!! It should have been "I GET LONELY" BY JANET JACKSON... EVERYBODY INCLUDING YALL IN THE COMMENTS KNOW THAT WAS ONE OF HER BIGGEST SLOW JAMS.

This was also about her ending relationship with qtip

4:00 They were a perfect match when they were dating too lol If you've seen Poetic Justice the movie, he played her bf in the beginning of the film as well.

I know Jam and Lewis produced this but I always thought Dilla ghost produced it. The fact that Q-Tip is on it sealed it for me.

My fave JJ song. For me, it was certainly a perfect match. Love Janet, love Q-Tip (and Tribe). I couldn't get enough of it.

The Velvet Rope album is my favorite from her. You should do I Get Lonely from that album. It has a video you’ll like too

This is another classic!

React to Janet Jackson's rhythm nation 1814 album Janet. Album velvet rope album all for you album and damita Jo album. She just have soooooo many gems on these albums. It's hard to just pick one song for u to react to.....when it comes to Janet Jackson....her albums tell a story. So u would probably wanna react to the album's in full to get the masterpiece experience that she gives💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Ok Jack really knows his shit👏👏👏

Great song...Had to listen to this one

React to "Love will never (without you)" by her. It's fantastic. The song, the video....

I love this song so much thx for react

This is from Janet's album The Velvet Rope. It sample's Joni Mitchell's "Big Yellow Taxi". One of my favorite albums by Janet Jackson. Please checkout Together Again.

*React to "Aunt Dot" by Lil' Kim pleasee*

I knew you would rock hard wit this😊

First time subscriber: Can you react to Janet Jackson's Control music video?

Janet "All Nite (Don't Stop)". One of my favorite Janet songs and videos. And about Janet, she is VERY versatile in her craft. She's able to do almost any genre with ease, and can adapt her voice to such. So you should definitely get into her.

React to Would You Mind by Janet. It’s a great song 😀

Check out Janet’s live performance of Son Of A Gun from her All For You Tour

I love your reactions!!

React to I Get Lonely remix by Janet Jackson feat. Blackstreet

Jack the video was shot in South Africa. The time period of the video reflects apartheid times and the use of my native tongue, Afrikaans on some of the signage. The video stays true to the location, even including "Drum" magazine (a local publication). The song itself is awesome and my favorite off "The Velvet Rope". As you said the video captures the essence and positiveness of black culture (even through the darkest of times).

Great reaction, Jack. You are so right, this song and video is very refreshing. Love the positive analytical vibes to your reactions.

💃🏽🙌🏾💃🏽🙌🏾💃🏽🙌🏾💃🏽🙌🏾💃🏽

That’s my jam

Icon Joni Mitchell’s dont know what you got til its gone/reminds Me of African clubs in PAris Or in Africa

Q-Tip being on here made me want to see more Tribe reactions. Some songs off of their last album like “Melatonin” and “Movin’ Backwards”

I don't know the true message behind this song...but sounds soooo good and I love the afro-centric scenery.

Paved paradise, put up a parking lot.

Heartbreak Hotel. The Jacksons. Please
