Janet Jackson's musical emancipation. This entire album was a MASTERPIECE. Janet had something to say, something to prove, and she said it and proved it with nothing but power. Control is her story. In my opinion, it remains one of the most important R&B-pop albums of the last 40 years.

[@grarghov1]

@@evetats235 yes, they aren't the only group. But they are the main TARGET group, for several reasons - e.g. an average teen is not so individualistic like a well-grown-up and has constant needs of belonging somewhere, hence they are way easier to manipulate. And they can spend their PARENTS' money which we cannot deny because our children are our future.

Anyone else on a Janet Jackson marathon right now? Honestly love this song and love how she's like telling apart of her story thru this song like shes taking control of her career her music and is breaking away from her dad who had alot of control over her past 2 albums/music glad she broke away so we got to see the true Janet come out of her shell more. This was prbly one of the best moves Janet made music wise just doing music on her own and constantly reinventing her music and trying different stuff I mean rhythm nation? That was a masterpiece along with control even some of her later albums were great like janet. and velvet rope and loved her Collab with Michael just wished they got to perform it live at least once together in the 90s. I mean the choreo Paula and Tina landon did for Janet and then others in the 90s and 00s for Janet some the choreo Janet did like that's some great choreo genius.

I can't wait to see all my fellow fans at her upcoming concert.This tour is going to be a blast!❤

[@divadoll606]

Phenomenal! She had something to say. She wanted CONTROL. You can feel her passion. Her stage presence is incredible.

[@jeffreyevans7297]

Remember who her brother was??

[@woodsoncircle]

The Jackson's ... pioneers, visionaries. The videos were damn near movies ... Janet really took off after she hooked up with Jimmy & Terry. Great music with no expiration date. CONTROL is a classic. LEGENDARY stuff.

[@henrycenteno490]

Drag race brought me here❤

[@JaniceCarter-ws7lu]

She wasn't lying, It's all about *Control* Keep God first. His favor over our lives is not for any of us to mistreat or try to destroy each other, our brothers and sisters destroy themselves when they continue to do wrong or try those that they feel are beneath them Never abuse your Power..🙋🏾‍♀️ Thank you for this one Janet❤

[@sirisgoddess]

The snake @4:54 is Janet's signature move like the moonwalk was MJs.. she put that move out global

I remember when I first heard Janet do this song, and I was hooked for life. We lost Michael live, but we've still got Janet.

[@davidtaylor4287]

Hi Gladys,hope you’re okay ?

[@janecowan1501]

She has a lot of his moves. Dancing that is. 😊

[@ktnworth]

We never really lost Michael. He's there, in the music, whenever we need him. xx

It’s cool how her videos were like movies leading up to the song, not just them performing/acting out the song as soon as it starts.

[@redbabi78]

I'm ready to call my momma and tell her "I'M IN CONTROL!" She'll probably just hang up on me because I'm 42😂...Janet's videos will have you in ya feelings😂❤

God i miss the 80's. The music, the fashion, the movies... it was just a great time.

[@lamontallen9435]

Yessss

[@gurutruecrimeguru1405]

Nah.

[@tanyalake9152]

It wasn't a great time. Even Janet had issues with her parents, especially from her so-called father. There were other negative things happening in the world, leading up to now.

[@jenniferjimenez1667]

Ohhh yesss it was the best of times !!!

[@tanyalake9152]

@@jenniferjimenez1667 - A lot of you are not living in the real world. It's crazy that a lot of you so-called adults ignore(d) the negative things that happened then, and still happening now.

[@ccmackkmcqueen9916]

I was under that strict mess by my mom too. They make you doubt yourself so they can stay in control over you. When you finally move out, you feel great - just so free like you just learned to breathe. Mine was not abusive but she had to keep her control over me. When I moved out, I finally exhaled. I was very grown by the way. I was about 22 yrs old with a good job already.

[@aniolive]

Janet is amazing. She is the best combination of strong and sweet in her performaces. I haven't heard this song is years - I love it!
