Refreshingly, this was one of those CDs I was able to just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
One of the refreshingly nice things about this CD is the way all of the participating artists seem to be really enjoying themselves. Combine that with the overall presentation and you’ve got one of Janet Jackson’s most impressive releases ever.
Listen to and I think you’ll agree that the song choices are excellent, the production is outstanding and Janet Jackson is clearly in top form.
While the entire album is really very good the truly standout tunes are track 6 - My Need, track 17 - Tonight’s The Night, and track Velvet Rope - Special.
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 2 - Velvet Rope. Good stuff!
