Why is the Modney getting mad or even involved tho? I wasn't talking to or about him. It's like he's the Salvation Army lawyer.

Before Janet Jackson made her much anticipated return to music earlier this year, it had been seven years since her last full body of work — but you wouldn’t know it.
More than 30 years after she first broke in music, Jackson’s influence remains omnipresent in today’s pop landscape.
From Rihanna's sexual freedom and Beyonce’s push for female empowerment to Ciara’s acrobatic footwork to FKA Twigs and Tinashe’s slinky, imaginative interpretations of R&B, it's all born from the blueprint Jackson drafted when she stepped out of the shadows of her more famous siblings and debuted the innovative R&B-pop she crafted alongside inventive production duo Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
Even rappers Kendrick Lamar and Drake looked to the pop singer for inspiration, building their 2013 hit "Poetic Justice," which gleaned its title from one of her film’s, around a Jackson sample. (That both were only age 6 when the movie was released is further proof of her timelessness.
....
Make no mistake, however, with every bend, snap, shoulder pop, tongue flicker, fierce diva pose and hip thrust, Jackson exuded more sex appeal than any of today’s pop stars who opt to bare skin in a bid to envelope push — but again, she’s already been there and done that.
I really love Troye, I do, but no. Visually Troye can't reach Stromae, and BN doesn't feel as socially aware besides gay rights and identity.
Oh i'm not saying he's @ Stromae's level. What i'm saying is that BN is closest thing we'll ever gonna get from an english speaking (male) artist to RC.
And Troye's video trilogy is amazing visuals, it deals with youthful homosexuality in a very beautiful, non-corny way. In Europe, the Gay issue is not longer a taboo, unlike in the US where Troye is more based so he's still a revolutionary.
