Janet Jackson - Damita Jo
Fresh off the success of her multi-platinum Grammy-winning 2001 release “All For You”, Janet Jackson had been consistently putting out hit records for well over 18-years, so when it was announced in early 2004 that Miss Jackson was to return with a new album (then, her sixth) as well as a spot headlining the SuperBowl halftime show, the streets were buzzing. Nobody could have predicted the series of events that would follow, resulting in the end of Janet’s commercial success as we knew it. But at the centre of all the drama was the album “Damita Jo”, an album that unfortunately due to the circumstances in Jackson’s public persona at the time, was widely ignored and underrated. Today, we take a look at the album “Damita Jo”, the music videos, the era. Because while Janet was blacklisted from TV and Radio, she STILL gave us everything you would expect from a Janet era. So sit back, and maybe hold onto your top tighter than usual (after all, we wouldn’t want any wardrobe malfunctions), and let’s dive into DAMITA JO.
