We are a part of the rhythm nation...,
By Tameron Cantrell (Nassau, The Bahamas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Janet Jacksons Rhythm Nation (Audio CD)
I was never a huge Janet Jackson fan until I heard the song "Rhythm Nation". I picked up this album and listened to it. I was close-minded when I first bought the CD, thinking that the only song I would like would be "Rhythm Nation". But as I listened to more and more of the songs, I began to like more and more.There are several songs on this album that sound the same. "Escapade" begins to sound like "Miss You Much" after a while, and so does "Love Will Never Do (Without You)". The disturbing "State of the World" is a rude awakening for our society, as is "Livin' In A World (They Didn't Make)". Jackson's thin voice is well hidden with loud rhythms and excellent musical arrangements, which actually saves the album in a way. It is obvious that the beats and rhythms in this album play a very important role. The highlights of the album are obviously "Rhythm Nation" in addition to "Black Cat", "Come Back To Me", and the unlikely "Someday Is Tonight". (After spending 3 hours in a car listening to this CD over and over, I found "Come Back To Me" and "Someday Is Tonight" to be actually the BEST songs on the album, with the exception of "Rhythm Nation".) For your first Janet Jackson CD, invest a few dollars in "Rhythm Nation 1814". This is Jackson's strongest album.

Untouchable,
This review is from: Janet Jacksons Rhythm Nation (Audio CD)
This was such a defining moment in this woman's career. Fans may have expected (and I'm sure the label were probably hoping for) Control Part 2, but Janet did not deliver that. Instead she took fans and new listeners to where few pop artists have: reality. Janet's social commentary on racism, bigotry, intolerance and prejudice was a smack to the face that nobody saw coming. Here, she sang about the harshness of a pregnant runaway teen, the terror of gunshots being fired on a school playground and the hope of communities breaking down colour barriers. This was a woman determined to make a difference.It's funny to think, after looking at the album cover's dark and direct image that it contains such colourful and light tunes such as Love Will Never Do (Without You), Alright and Escapade. Towards the album's closing moments, we are also reminded of Janet's innocence on Lonely and Someday Is Tonight (a second chapter to Control's Let's Wait Awhile). The fact that Janet spoke up on such issues is a true testament to the kind of person this woman is. A landmark album.

Janet's only great album. Thumbs up!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Janet Jacksons Rhythm Nation (Audio CD)
This is the only Janet album that I still enjoy. Every following release was completely dissapointing and her newest album "Damita Jo" is worst piece of filth I've ever heard. "Rhythm Nation" however is an important and powerful album with really powerful messages of social conscience on the title track and "State of The World" and yet also having lots of fun like on "Alright" and "Escapade". Every song on here is brilliant and this is Janet's strongest outing without a doubt. The Janet and Velvet Rope were boring, All for You was bad and don't get me started on "Damita Jo". RN is the best album to close out the 1980s and is a must have. A pity she never came close to being this good ever again.
