My favourite '80s pop girl is Janet. Even with just two albums she blows the competition out of the water! Rhythm Nation is probably my second favourite album of all time.

Madonna's is cute but like I said its just kinda whatever to me now. Only LAP is really exciting musically.

Janet >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> everyone else. She was so ahead of her time and she was actually making albums, which is important. I don't want to discuss any of her post-Damita Jo work, but everything from Control to DJ was amazing

YES. Janet is soooo damn underrated. Probably because she didn't use controversy to boost her career. Imagine if she was the Queen of Pop to get brother's King of Pop title?



Almost done, btw.

It's a cool song, but it seems like a smidge of a backward step with her music. Can't really see it as a single... Hopefully I am wrong...

I can't see it as a single either, but I couldn't see I Bet or Body Party either tbh and neither did most of the c-squad, so maybe DLWML will prove us wrong again

I remember thinking Got Me Good was a perfect single though

That being said, I wonder why she didn't release the Missy / Pitbull track, it sounds hot

[Truth Teller]

28 entries in

[keshaspearsxo]

I will be sending tomorrow of course

I actually kinda like my song now. It sounds like something Bebe Rexha would sing

[BadBitches]

I haven't my entry yet due to drama with my boyfriend. Working on it now.

I don't know when to bring this up, so I might as well do it now (and then I'll have to repeat it a bunch once it gets buried).

Message to the contestants:
I never read song explanations/inspirations that are sent with your lyrics. I think songs should be read WITHOUT the influence of the story behind the song, how personal it is, etc. etc. The message/meaning should come through in the lyrics, not in a paragraph of text that accompanies it. Some past seasons have forbidden contestants from sending explanations, but I believe you're allowed to this season (right TT?) so I just want to note this now so that if I write a critique that says something like, "I don't even understand what's happening in the bridge" you don't say, "But it was in my explanation!" OK, that's it!

Yep, they're allowed. But it's important to note out that noone gains or loses any points for including an explanation. I just want all the contestants to submit their entry in a way that makes them comfortable, so if they want to include a cover, an explanation, an instrumental, a recording of the song, background info etc, I'll happily forward it to the judges (and I'll read or hear it myself), but no extra points are given.

I only ever do covers because they're fun and cute.

IKR! I did them too!!! They weren't very good ofc, but I loved making them

And I do appreciate them, I just can't give you any points for them
