Phoebe Buffay 12,525 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814 is the fourth studio album by American singer Janet Jackson, released on September 19, 1989, by A&M Records. Although label executives wanted material similar to her previous album, Control (1986), Jackson insisted on creating a concept album addressing social issues. Collaborating with songwriters and record producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, she drew inspiration from various tragedies reported through news media, exploring racism, poverty, and substance abuse, in addition to themes of romance. Although its primary concept was met with mixed reactions, its composition received critical acclaim. Jackson came to be considered a role model for youth because of her socially conscious lyrics. It became the singer's second consecutive album to top the Billboard 200 albums chart in the United States. Certified six-times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America, it became the country's best-selling album of 1990 and has sold an estimated 12 million copies worldwide. Due to its innovative production and lyrical exploration, critics have come to regard it as the pinnacle of Jackson's artistic achievement. It has been cited as an influence in various musical trends, inspiring numerous artists. Rules: 1. Rate the songs from 1-10 and you may give your favorite song an 11. 2. 0's aren't allowed. 3.

MACATL 1,127 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Definitely a “moment” in pop music history. Janet ruled the music industry during this era and paved the way for all future dance pop divas to follow with this project. “Interlude: Race” contains a quote that definitely applies to our society today. 1. Rhythm Nation - 10 2. State of the World - 5 3. The Knowledge -4 4. Miss You Much - 10 5. Love Will Never Do (Without You) - 11 (one of my ultimate feel good songs) 6. Livin' in a World (They Didn't Make) - 7 7. Alright - 7.5 8. Escapade - 10 9. Black Cat - 9 10. Lonely - 7.5 11. Come Back to Me - 8 12.
