This whole campaign was executed so flawlessly. The social media campaign.....the hashtags #conversationsinacafe #unbreakable.
The tribute at the BET Awards where she plugs the name of her album in the acceptance speech.
Targeting the black crowd first with No Sleeep and launching a world tour just based on her name.
Making people preorder the album to gain presale access and special privileges.
The decision to not do any press and keep everything secret. Now everyone is trying to get the first interview with her.
Releasing an amazing album and letting the music speak for itself.
Starting her own record label where she will be receiving the majority of the profits.

Artists have been doing that.

Not many
Jans is so unique wow
She's always been a smart business woman! She's never uttered the words or anything similar to "buy my album" either in her entire career. NEVER. She just always says, "I hope the fans enjoy." Now if that's not a Queen..
You can't even name that many independent artists that have done this
Most independent artist aren't"Janet Jackson" but yay go queens!!!!1!!

As if Janet couldn't get a major deal if she wanted to. :uhh:
As I said before, she is a smart business woman. She'll be profiting about $500k from first week sales of her album alone. Any other artist would receive about $.10 per album sold. Also, she OWNS her own masters starting from Control and up to 20 Y.O.. If that's not a smart business woman...
just plain revolutionary
I dunno I think Donna just did it

Madonna's on Interscope. She too is a smart business woman but that has nothing to do with this thread.

Right. Nobody put any other artist down or said anything bad about them. They're just fuming

:holdupguys:
Some have major deals and can't even get proper promotions or even a release date.
Let us celebrate a little. It's kind of been hell these past few years being a Jan so for Queen to rise from all of the backlash, blacklisting, and naysayers is huge.

Does Jans not own the masters to GODiscipline?

She'll be profiting about $500k from first week sales of her album alone.
How do you know her profit if you dont know her expenses/debts/operating costs?
Every cent off of this album may as well go into the tour
