Janet Jackson - Make Me
Artist: Janet Jackson
Producer: Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis
Album: Untitled (TBD)
Label: A&M Records
It would be a understatement to say that Janet Jackson‘s been dealing with a lot of grief lately—from her breakup with longtime beau Jermaine Dupri to her big brother‘s tragic death, she’s been grappling with circumstances that would send the average person spiraling toward a nervous breakdown. Rather than letting the pressure get to her, though, Janet’s kept a cool head and continued to pour her energy into her 11th studio album, set for release at the top of 2010. Following Janet’s tribute performance at the VMAs, fans expected her to incorporate some of her big bro’s classics into the project, and on the first official leak she does just that. With the help of Scream production team Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, the singer creates an all-around treat for the ears, revisiting the numerous personae she’s adopted throughout her career. Though the upcoming album lacks a solid release date, a title and distribution, this blast from the past is reason enough for celebration. Welcome back, Janet!

Yes! This sounds EVERYTHING like what we all love about Janet and NOTHING like what she was doing (made to do) over at Def Jam. More please...

Can't go wrong with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis though they scared me with the Britney(ish)intro.Then the classic funk sound from them kicked in and rocked it. Sounds like Janet coming back with a vengeance. BTY she was awesome last night at the VMA's.

It comes as no great surprise that Janet Jackson can lay down a dance track proper and this one is no exception.
I’m feeling the electro-funk vibe of “Make Me” and the little bit of disco flava and this sounds more in line with what we expect from Janet, so Im excited to hear wats to come ... BANGER!!! |

When it comes to songs like this which aren't my type, I just look for quality in the overall sound and production. I feel like I've heard this beat multiple times on older songs. For that reason, I gotta say it's just ok.
