I called Beyonce an ape because I think she looks like one not because she's black.
I have never uttered a racist word in my life don't turn this reverse bull-**** around on me and try to label me of your own volition over your tired view of the world.
I don't care how many white people gilted your ugly ass during this life Granny Weatherall, because I aint one of them. Maybe they didn't dislike you because you were black and were like me and the rest of the world and hated you for your lack of self-restraint, poise, intellect, and honestly a lack of positive traits whatsoever.
Get a ****ing life jack ass.

just everything about this

So because Nicki is going to do a more rap-influenced album next time, her sales will go down? Where's the logic? If anything, her sales will go UP. Rap is what everybody wants from her right now & it's what she wants from herself. Why would she do pop music again like on PF:RR when she no longer feels like doing it & got a lot of negative feedback for doing so last time, despite the success of Starships?

Honestly, Nicki shines when she raps. She's also a great singer, but when she goes IN on a verse she's on a whole other level. She's incredibly gifted.

It's not the music, it's just that no one cares anymore.

So urban music can't be "radio-friendly"? And if they are, they're "pop"?

How old are you, btw?

I do get the idea that Janet stopped caring about her career. The SNL cancellation, her tour abruptly ending, her returning to movies and hasn't released an album in 6 years. The Superbowl DID do a number on her. She couldn't handle the backlash and that resulted in her not caring about her craft.

Exactly!

A LOT of artists would've had the same reaction. That type of intense controversy and criticism can lead to depression if you aren't head-strong.

oh yeah, Damita Jo is such a bad album which certainly didn't help matters. It was the first Janet album I listened to as well because of a rate I organized lol

yeah, that album's a mess. a few great bops but lots of filler. she actually was planning to work with timbaland on the next album because she loved his work with missy, jt, & aaliyah. 20 y.o. with timbaland producing would've been oh so great. instead she could only work with jermaine and ghetto ass khia

HO,WGH is a crossover R&B/Pop song, IMO. It's a beautiful song.

Drake's discography is so unique.

I'm sorry I lost my composure for a second.
I detest racism and being called a racist really hurts my ****ing feelings.
I've experienced it first-hand and don't tolerate it in around me.

It must have not helped that Janet had already dealt with depression prior to Damita Jo Probably triggered it again, ugh what an awful time it must have been for her.

Cap10 I learned to play Vixen on guitar.
It's such a beautiful song especially on acoustic.

Girl sit the **** down, you do NOT think Beyonce looks like an ape, you said it to be racist or be a troll or whatever it is "you do."

[MusicTalker]

Are we seriously referring to songs as "white" and/or "black" in this thread?

Yup. Just look at Lady Gaga and Britney Spears.
