Review.- Janet Damita Jo Jackson (born May 16, 1966) is an American singer, actress, songwriter, record producer, dancer, activist, and pop icon. Born in Gary, Indiana, daughter of Katherine Esther (née Scruse) and Joseph Walter Jackson. She is the youngest of ten children. The family was of lowe
r-middle-class and devout Jehovah's Witnesses. By the time she was a toddler, Janet's older brothers: Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon, and Michael had already begun to perform on stage at nightclubs and theaters as the Jackson 5. Review until Rhythm Nation Era.- While initially having apprehensions
about starting a music career, she did agree to participate in recording sessions with her family. Her first recording was a duet with brother Randy on a song titled "Love Song for Kids" in 1978. When Janet was fifteen, Joe launched her recording career by arranging a contract with A &M Records.
After the limited successes of her first two albums(Janet Jackson debuted in 1982 & Dream Street in 1984), A&M Records hired producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis to jump-start Jackson's career, figuring that musically, she would be a great match with the duo. Before Jackson left for the producers hometown of Minneapolis, Minnesota, Jam and Lewis were given the blessing of Jackson's father (her manager at the time), with the promise that they would not have Jackson's music sounding like Prince, whom the two had previously been associated with.
Within months, Jackson, Jam, and Lewis crafted Jackson's breakthrough album, Control. Released in February 1986, Control the album spun off six Hot 100 hits in the U.S., five landing in the Top 5: "What Have You Done for Me Lately," "Nasty," "When I Think of You" (Jackson's first number one single
on Billboard's Hot 100 singles chart), "Control," and "Let's Wait Awhile" and the Top 20 hit "The Pleasure Principle." Most of the Control music videos, meanwhile, were choreographed by Paula Abdul. The album went to the top of the Billboard 200 album charts for two weeks, and has sold more than si
x million copies in America. In early 1987, Control received a Grammy nomination for Album of the Year, six Billboard Music Awards, four American Music Awards, three MTV Video Music Awards and three Soul Train Music Awards, including Album of the Year. The same year, Jackson took another step towa
rd independence by firing her father-manager, Joseph Jackson (although the back of her 1989 album Rhythm Nation 1814 still carried the logo for Joseph's management company). Janet and her older sister Rebbie Jackson were the only two siblings who did not participate in the We Are the World video. In
1989, Jackson began recording her fourth album, Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814. 1814 referred to the year "The Star Spangled Banner" was written; in addition, 'R' is the 18th letter of the alphabet and 'N' the 14th, hence 1814. Though executives at A &M wanted an album similar to Control, Jackson instead created an album that, in addition to songs about love and relationships, had heady socially-conscious message.
Rhythm Nation 1814 peaked at number one on the Billboard 200 Album Chart as well as the R &B Chart, sold six million copies in the US at its time of release, and became the first album to spawn seven Top 5 singles: "Alright," "Rhythm Nation," and "Come Back To Me"
— as well as four number one singles: "Miss You Much," "Escapade," "Black Cat," and "Love Will Never Do (Without You)." The album would not see great success in the UK, however, struggling on both the album and singles charts in that country. In 1990, Janet became the first artist to score a numb
er-one hit simultaneously on the Billboard Hot 100 and Mainstream Rock singles charts with "Black Cat." Billboard named Rhythm Nation 1814 the number-one selling album of the year. Jackson went on to win fifteen Billboard Music Awards, five American Music Awards, four Soul Train Music Awards, three
MTV Video Music Awards and her first Grammy Award. The Rhythm Nation 1814 Tour had an impressive attendance of more than two million people and remains the most successful debut tour by any artist. From 1986 to 2006, Jackson has scored ten number-one singles on the Billboard Hot 100 and fifteen num
ber-one singles on the Billboard Hot R &B/Hip-Hop Songs. She is also the second musician with the largest amount of number ones on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play (the first being Madonna), with seventeen dance chart-toppers in total. In addition to her commercial accomplishments, Jackson has won five Grammy Awards, received a nomination at the 66th Academy Awards, received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1990, and was honored with the first "mtvICON" tribute from MTV in 2001.
