She is deserving of being inducted but unfortunately it's been more difficult for women to get inducted.
It's strange they haven't inducted Janet yet when they've included "Control" and "Janet." in the list of 200 Most Definitive Albums of all time.
Also, her handwritten lyrics to "Rhythm Nation" were presented at the "Women who Rock" Exhibit and the song is also part of the Songwriting and Points of View Course. I can't understand why they would give her all this credit and yet not induct her?
This is what's hilarious and absurd to me. It's one thing to totally ignore her but they consistently praise her music and recognize her work. Why not recognize the person behind it??
All those white fans in that video. How come ATRL users, the gatekeepers of music history, always:
1. Try to discredit Janet's career by saying she's mostly used only by POC, and...
2. Try to legitimize that notion by essentially saying that, even if she was only revered by black people, that wouldn't be enough?

Well posed question. They ain't gon answer you though.
the fact you have to make a hash tag and a low budget video full of old gays to get your fav recognized
I'm sorry if you're feeling some type of way, or if you're made, but 1) I didn't make this so-called "low budget" video, and 2) The fact that these "old gays" actually took the time to show how much Janet has impacted everyone with 100 legitimate reasons over Madagascar proves how much Janet needs to be inducted!
