And the songs that blew up afterwards are not really the same. Big difference between electropop and EDM and the type of dated house she was trying to do
Like someone else before you just mentioned, a good song would save her career. People like Mariah Carey and Britney Spears have faced radio bans too until they had a song that was too powerful that public demand won over politics. Janet could have done the same
And I think you really must be confused or ignorant about the charts because Just A Little While, Call On Me, Feedback, and All Nite all charted in the Top 40 on Pop Radio. You make it seem like she got 0 spins which is not true The Hot 100 and Radio charts are different things.

Janet WAS blacklisted for three eras by Viacom (who owned MTV and alot of radio stations) and CBS (owns Clear Channel) after they were fined from the incident, even Rolling Stone mentioned it in an article yesterday. She did get some airplay but thats the reason why she wasn't able to get it like she used to. Before that she was always on radio when she had an album out..with her last era, All for You was the biggest hit of the year, and she had absolutely NO problem on music channels.
Britney's radio ban was only for one era in the US. Janet angered some of the biggest conglomerates in the world and faced their boycott worldwide with everything they had control over, so it's not comparable. They were in Supreme Court for years after that, so it affected Janet a lot more.
JALW, All Nite, COM, and Feedback would've been HUGE if it wasn't for the blacklist. JALW was already taking off and getting huge airplay before it disappeared out of nowhere when it happened.

All her singles following the incident were great with the exception of maybe two. The blacklist is what affected everything, not her output.
