Title: The Janet tribute was underwhelming....
Post by: Mel. on June 29, 2015, 01:18:50 PM
I couldn't get into it...
I was kinda bored tbh

I think Janet would've been better off doing it herself

Title: Re: The Janet tribute was underwhelming....
Post by: Cowgirl on June 29, 2015, 01:59:15 PM
I was thinking about this and the reason it was underwhelming is because it's Janet and no one can quite embody her presence. I thought they all did a really great job but they're no Janet. Even as great of a dancer Ciara is, she just lacks the intricacy of choreography in general. Jason and Tinashe did great but when you're performing the songs of one of the greatest entertainers of all time, you're going to fall short somehow.

"No Sleeep" is doing very well on the charts because it's authentic. No one said it was gonna be a smash but it's performing well and setting her up very nicely. She didn't release it because she wanted a smash single

I thought she would have performed but I'm glad she didn't actually. It's a slow song so to follow up with some of her monster up-tempos would have been foolish. It wasn't about her performance or capabilities, it was about paying homage to someone we admire and appreciate so much, not for her to try to upstage everything hey just did. I get it.

This is the comeback of the year, where's the lie? The song is kinda shitting tbh as well, artists would kill for the consistency it's already had.

The purpose of this comeback is mainly for her tour which is selling out. She doesn't have to sell anything additional tbh, she's not trying to sell to reimburse a record label. This is about the return of Janet Jackson not the hype of a slower song she released. She did that for her love.

Ciara should've performed "I Get Lonely" with a vocal and people keep saying Ci didn't embody Jan. fucking plea' Gran isn't even performing like Ci did last night.

Post by: Pisces Soul on June 29, 2015, 02:17:14 PM
EBT aint shit for having Ciara, Nashe & Jason pretty much copy what Mya, Usher & Pink already did...

Ciara was the standout....but the execution of the routines seemed very sloppy and rushed...and to think

Jans choreographer Gil assisted the routines... :mmyulost:

Ciara didn't even touch present day Janet but I wouldn't expect her to. Same reason why I wouldn't expect Janet to touch her matrix or pop locking.

Yeah, Ci was just one second too fast with the execution of the 'If' routine

The white gays around ha couldn't quite keep up

Ci was the best, but even she was a bit sloppy. Makes you appreciate that when Janet was doing it, bitch was cleannnn.

But that Egyptian "If" dance. I still havent found 2 of my tracks.
