The cinematography and the message
:stressed:
One of her best
AMAZING
one of my favorite vids also
My favorite song, video and album!!
The Velvet Rope is such a classic and timeless album
Always loved how everyone looked shiny and moist.
It's really timeless and smooth
One of my fave songs of all time
I love Malick Sidibe, Samuel Fosso and Seydou Keita, this is an amazing mixture

Dont really care for this song.
But it has a nice liddo message tbh
It's crazy how it wasn't properly released to mainstream radio

I love how they married the concept of the not realising what you havwant until it's gone and the African colonialism
The beat
The sample
The video
The lyrics
The vocals
Q tips placement
Everything WORKS
Beautiful song, beautiful video!! Now THIS is edgy and she executed flawlessly, uhhhhhhh!!!
Amazing video. One of my all-time faves. Great song too.
Jans was really edgy at this time. I used.
fffffffffff idk why but it makes me scream when Annie is perched in threads like this
"africans! i understand!"

I love the photography, I have a book by Sidibe :hmph: and think this video is genius.
And Samuel Fosso is a great example of how you can create an identity. He had his own studio and dressed up as all of these characters. A bit more natural than Cindy Sherman & Yasumasa Morimura who I also love.
These photographers are kinda legends..so yeah I stan for them.
(...and whether you are black or white if you're into photography you need to know these names.)
Tell her OWF 'nie
Seriously I couldn't stand this song when I was younger. And it was like EVERYWHERE :dead:

Quote"Got 'til It's Gone" was considered a departure from Jackson's mainstream pop appeal, striving for a less polished and more authentic alternative hip hop and trip hop-influenced sound. Its lyrics speak of a great lesson Jackson learned ? appreciate what you have while you have it.
"Got 'til It's Gone" was met with mostly positive reviews from music critics, who praised its fusion of Jackson's pop style with "harder-edged hip-hop." Adversely, the song was also labeled "disappointing" with an "incongruous" appearance from Mitchell. "Got 'til It's Gone" was not released as a commercial single, making it ineligible to appear on the Billboard Hot 100. However, the song peaked at number 36 on pop formats and reached number three on urban radio. Internationally, "Got 'til It's Gone" reached the top twenty in most European markets, including France, Germany, Italy and Switzerland.
The music video for "Got 'til It's Gone," directed by Mark Romanek, portrays Jackson as a lounge singer during the time of apartheid in South Africa. It was called a "masterpiece" by critics, winning a Grammy Award for "Best Short Form Music Video."
