I like Janet Jackson, I remember hearing some songs by her on Mtv, but I agree with everyone else. From what I remember, she wasn't that big a deal, just another pop musician with actual talent. If she wasn't MJ's sister I don't feel like she would have been such a big name, but she is, so I can't just ignore that fact.

Brandy, Aaliyah, and TLC are all bigger, better names to me.

That's just not true. There was the super bowl thing.

This is the one thing anyone has mentioned that is legitimately iconic. So, I guess if she's iconic, it's because she made a spectacle of herself (and because of her brother), cause it's certainly not because of her music.

Kanye's black. Does that make you racist?

I think it's a bit rude to call out everyone on Music Banter racially insensitive. I certainly am not.
