U tripping about the better singer.

There's tons of girls who dance better then Janet though.

Tinashe doesn't have the range of Janet's catalog at all. Where are Tinashe's slow jams?? Where are her anthems?? Where is her "Control"?

Ciara has more slow jams and "anthems" then Tinashe has. Lol.


Now with all that said i loved her debut album though.
anybody can do slow jams breh. case in point Ciara. If Ciara whisper singing ass can do it, anybody could if they wanted. Doesn't mean you're a good singer. The best way to tell how good a singer is, is by accepella. With no music, no production, no beat, just singing. I just want to hear one of Janet's accepella, just one.

this could be consider a slow jam


but you see, it doesn't highlight her vocals like when I posted the videos of her singing the national anthem. Slow jams doesn't measure if person is a good singer.
Here is another slow jam

No, their ability to sing without 'studio voodoo' and/or looking like a hooker does.​

you really think Janet is a better vocalist than Tinashe?

okay fine, I'll give Janet the edge in dancing but singing and attractiveness, Tinashe has her beat, Tinashe didn't need facial surgery.




post a video of Janet singing an accapella as good as this. It's not even close really. Bae sound so angelic.:mjcry: Janet is in the same category as aliyah in terms of vocals.


janet didn't need the facial surgery either however she got it and still looks great too :umad:

these acapellas of janet are faaaar better than tinashe:jawalrus::banderas: and janet was really the blueprint for artists like aaliyah and ciara. she ain't in the same category as aaliyah however she's not in the same league or anywhere close to whitney houston or mariah carey

once again, these janet acapellas though :ohlawd:

From a TECHNICAL perspective - Janet Jackson is the most over-rated artist in black music.

There's tons of better singers, tons of better dancers and she didn't write or produce the majority of her work.

Before the neg train comes - she made 110% of her talent. As an artist, she knew her strengths and weaknesses and put together the strongest package possible. She go the best production and songwriting to match the mood/feeling of her vocals with the best choreography and videos she could. As a package, an entertainer, artist, she's unfukkwitable. But the actual raw musical talent.. was not significan. As for her vocal style, she pretty much laid the blueprint for it.

Therefore every pretty, adequate singing, good dancing black female artist is going to get that comparison. Aaliyah was the closest in terms of getting the full package correct. Ciara had a spark when she started but didn't have the vision. Tinashe up next, let's see what she do with it. Personally, I don't see it. Her singles don't show her lane correctly.

Yeah
Reason # 57986435679876654335789985 why complex is trash.

This generation has an infatuation with comparing everything to the past.

There will never be another Janet just like there will never be another 2pac or Jordan or Aaliyah etc etc.

The person who wrote this article is no different than the bloggers who uses the words "classic" after hearing an album for 5 minutes.

Let tinashe have her own lane.
