Look, this has got out of hand. Never did I say that Janet isn't a good performer. But trying to create a narrative than JJ was ever as big as MJ, in any department, is just silly. It really doesn't help your case.

You can't be serious..

She's sold out stadiums all over the globe..

TVR tour, A4U tour, the Janet. Tour, The RN tour..I ****ing can't.

literally 90% of non-Americans claim Janet her sings are unknown outside the US and her stans are trying so hard to argue otherwise these claims are not stanwar'd, they're facts

u gurls have some nerve to tell us about what music/sing is popular in our country and what's not.

This song isn't classic or known in any of the African countries that I've lived in or visited.

Janet's songs are very well known here. Her songs are clearly global because they're known here and have impact.

If I were to say something like this and about Whites or Euros I would be called racist

[Love Drought]

I don't understand why some members are acting as if Janet was pretty much one of the most local acts of all time, when the receipts are clearly there to prove them wrong.

[Javan]

Her impact is underrated. Her success in terms of sales seems to be overrated by fans tho. She was never as global as the greats but her legacy is never ending.

I didn't lie tho. Why would you bring african receipts into the equation when they don't even have a tracking system? It makes no sense, sorry

With european members its probably explained by Janet's lack of impact here. You know her name, but not necessarily her music unless you actually dig for it. She's still a legend though imo

there's a difference between saying that janet wasn't as big in said country instead of discrediting her entire career and accomplishments, the latter being much more prevalent throughout this thread than the former

Huh? Her songs are sampled and covered all across Asia and Europe.

On ATRL yes. But the GP gets it right.

and more. all these songs didn't chart inside the top30 yet are more known/remembered than any Janet top 10 single, especially WW.

Is this a joke? Most people cannot recognize any of these songs.

This is ATRL. People have selective reading here.

A conversation I had with my mum the other night went something like this:

Me: mum, you know Janet Jackson, what were some of her biggest hits back in the day, I don't know many.
Her: hmmmm, I honestly can't remember them - they weren't that memorable
Me: So she wasn't anywhere near as big as say Madonna, Mariah or Whitney
she literally gasped when I said this
her: oh GOD no! no where near as big as those girls

so heres proof that CANNOT be argued that Janet is irrelevant outside of the US

poor janet stans

The only remembered/iconic human nature is by MJ.
