Janet Jackson - All For You
A pop song you weren't ashamed to love. Janet Jackson starts off our massive 00's Pop #1 back catalogue! This tenth #1 from Janet broke records upon release and also scooped her a Grammy for Best Dance Recording.
Unfortunately, her momentum didn't last long as this is her only #1 single from the noughties. Rocked by a certain 2004 Superbowl scandal no one seems to know about, Janet has had it hard this millennium.
Album: All For You
Released: March 2001

It remains a hip-hop classic :
you've never heard "All For You". It's Janet Jackson's best song ever!
All For You!
