WE HEAR…JANET JACKSON IS TRYING TO REVIVE HER CAREER
Word is Janet Jackson is desperately trying to revive her music career. As you may remember, Janet dropped Island Records last year after they failed to promote her album Discipline and then she decided to take matters into her own hands by managing herself. But, according to the New York Daily News, the singer has released a new greatest hits compilation titled Number Ones after secretly signing a new contract last month with A&M Records, which happens to be the first label she signed with at age 16. And word is A&M executive Jimmy Lovine is making sure that Janet comes out on top with her next album expected to hit store shelves in 2010, by recruiting top producer Rodney Jerkins to crank out some hits for the songstress. A snitch tells NY Daily News,
“Jimmy has given the mandate to make this Janet record a success. He believes that he has the right team in place to finally take Janet back to the top of the music charts. It’s a top priority for the label.”
Hope everything works out for Janet.

Let’s be real. Although it didn’t hurt having the Jackson name in the beginning of her career, she does have her own unique talent separate from Michael’s. Her fans didn’t buy her records just because she was Michael’s sister. She is obviously not trying to ride his coattail because she was been putting out albums (although the recent ones not the most successful) on a regular basis prior to MJ’a death. It makes sense that she would continue doing the work that she enjoys until she feels she is ready to retire from that work. Would any of us just give up our passion if we felt that we more in us to give? Let’s stop the hating. She is a person just like the rest of us.
