Yeah i'm back lol



Lmao, that's a damn lie . I post at the org just like you do and I talk about plenty other artists besides MJ, but guess you haven't seen my posts over there. I enjoy many other artists including Janet. It's just that Michael is my fave, just like Janet is your fave. This is an MJ fan forum afterall so who else should I be talking about really? I'm here for Michael and Michael only.

And once again like I said, maybe you should skip your ass on over to a Janet fan forum instead of jumping all over everyone here who doesn't worship Janet as a goddess like you do. You aren't having fun or being relaxed at all so don't even try it. You're being nasty as always. You caught an attitude with me for no reason and you know it.

its not about worshipping my friend...its just about recognizing that Janet has accomplished alot...not MJ alot...but again... WHO HAS?

No, I've seen you on there *waves*

Loosen up hun!! It's not that serious!! :rofl: I suggest you skip on out of here to the main section if I and other Janet fans got you so hot and bothered. I'm not bashing anyone for not praising Janet. Just correcting some of these fools. That's all.
 
LMAO!! Brotherhood racked up 7 top 5 hits!! Janet could never :rofl:

Brotherhood is the first studio album released by group 3T. Co-produced by their uncle Michael Jackson and Kenneth Komisar, the album was released on Jackson's record label, MJJ Music. It has reportedly sold around six million copies worldwide. Five singles were released: "Anything", "24/7" ", "Why" (a duet with Michael Jackson), "I Need You" (with Michael Jackson on backing vocals) and "Gotta Be You".

^^^

TAKE THAT ALL FOR YOU AND INVINCIBLE ALBUMS!!!!!!

*googles Jermaine Jackson "Let's Get Serious" stats*


Let's Get Serious is an album by Jermaine Jackson, released in 1980. It reached #6 on the Billboard 200 and #1 on the Top R&B chart.

#1 album haha!!! who's the top selling jackson now!

Oh if you read my initial post, you'd see I didn't say anything bad about Janet. I'm a (casual) Janet fan myself, obviously not as big a fan as I am of MJ's, but I like Janet. I have all her albums and i've seen her in concert. Believe it or not, I used to be somewhat of a Janet fanatic, there was even a time *gasp* I was more into Janet than Michael (That lasted for like a few months). Ahh, bad memories no i'm kidding lol. Janet is a success and icon in her own right and I would never be that stupid to deny this. I just think both fanbases can be kinda petty and jealous and I don't see the need for all the comparisons.

Oh dear, I get worked up over anyone talking about Michael, not just Janet fans. Not at all. The MJ stan in me just wont shut up most of the time lol, but anyway it's cool. I have no problem with anyone as long as they aren't outright bashing MJ on this site. Anyway, do your thing.

See ya around.

Janet fans are the same. I'm sure you've seen this on the org :rofl: MJ and Janet have hardcore fans.
 
You don't read or comprehend well or maybe you just like mess. I did not, and will never call my friend and brother a FLOP. I was referring to his album and only within the context that you declare Janet's albums of FLOP (now you see how I did that, I said you call her albums a flop not Janet, or did you?)
no...you like mess. nobody bashed Janet...they called her albums a flop.

Can you please point out which post was so disrespectful :mellow:

I read charismatic's post thoroughly and in no way did he/she disrespect MJ he just made a COMPARISON between both MJ and Janet. And no one said MJ wasn't one of the best selling artists ever.

Reading is fundamental, you know? ;)

well then, i suggest you do some reading. read the WHOLE thread, since you are saying NO ONE is bashing MJ. it's an evil..EVIL world to suggest that MJ would pull a death stunt to get out of touring..or..even to consider it..although it's a crass way for you to look over your shoulder at MJ massive success, because of a nod to desperation for people to force MJ to do something he clearly didn't want to or have to do, because of desperation to see him and seeing dollar signs in their eyes. and MJ is THE best selling artist ever. not wanting to admit that is bashing. omitting obvious info, that you know is true, because you want to refuse someone their due, is definitely bashing.

Yet Janet's AFY was far more successful

See ya!
i don't think so. do a recount.

Invincible

But of course, you probably think that album sales single handedly equate to success :sigh:
like you would if it was your favorite artist. oh, the hypocrisy. especially since you are doing album sales comparisons.

No, I've seen you on there *waves*

using the word 'fools' and saying not bashing anyone? check yourself. you're going on a serious tip, yourself.

Earth. Assuming you were old enough to remember 2000 -2002.

again, do a recount. :) MJ went, at least 6 times more platinum than Janet, on Invincible vs. AFY

This album has already outsold the last. So that's not flopping. Looks like the author made a fool of himself. :(

Don't shoot the messenger. I dig Janet, but I also speak the truth. Number 28 is a flop, regardless of whether it is higher or lower than her last record.
 
But where did I call Janet a flop in my previous post? Show me where I said that? What are some of you getting so worked up about? Bottom line is that none of Michael's albums have ever done as badly as "20 Y.O." or "Discipline". He has NEVER failed to go multi-platinum.

Besides it's ridiculous to compare Michael's mega sellers to "Invincible" and "History" (which still did very well, 20 million+ I believe). "Invincible" was released in a time when illegal DL was rampant. How much were albums selling in 2001 when Invincible was released anyway? Albums were not selling 25 or 30 million anymore, so yes 9-11 million that MJ sold was excellent.

There you go.:clapping:
With his time and age he still managed/manages to beat out all the new sounds around that era. Face it, His Star has never faded. Young and Old are more than willing to spend on this man. The same cannot be said for many other performers. That is why EVERYONE Hates Michael. He just couldn't stop.

Michael Jackson is the best and you know it. That is all I have to say.

But seriously, Does Janet have any active fan forums around?

Not surprising. :D
Btw she should stop using MJ to revive her career. It's annoying the heck out of me. Every time I see her talking about MJ, I want to zip her mouth. The other no career Jacksons too except Latoya.
 
Well, I brought it up since he want to talk about sales. The majority of Invincible sales came from outside of the states. The singles off Invincible did poorly as well. Hell! All for You was far more successful then Invincible though it didn't sell as much.

You're running by numbers yet you're failing to see an album can be just as successful or even more without selling 30-40 million copies.

ITA! Honestly, I think it is almost fair to say that Janet was more commercially successful than MJ in the mid-late 90s up to the A4U period. IMO, the last commercially successful album in the US for MJ was Dangerous in terms of overall sales and singles success.It shouldn't matter either way because Janet and Michael are great in their own way.I love them both.

The problem with Janet and even Whitney is that what works in the 90s and early 00s will not work today in an era where Beyonce, Rihanna and others have created a new sound.


As for Janet using MJ...SHE IS HIS BROTHER.
 
all im gonna say is grow up children. these threads always turn into the same ole crap.saddo janet and mj fans attacking each other over a bro and sister need to get a grip two totally seperate artist.compairing anyone to mj is plain stupid even more so when they arent compeating

As for Janet, most if not all MJ fans can stomach Janet as an artist just fine, I for one am not a superfan but I think she's cool. If there are people on here who don't share that sentiment then oh well. I wouldn't call them out I'd ignore them, because believe it or not, there are plenty of JJ fans that talk just as much shit about MJ and that show just as much hate towards him for "no logically reaseon" as well, it's not right, but it most deffinitly goes BOTH WAYS.
very true excpet for the backhanded comment about stomaching jan.

and other than the fact that jan is alive there is no reason for mj fans to be jealous of her especially when from what ive seen most mj fans in europe tend to support her anyway.thats just a daft statement from the janet/fans/mj haters who are more than likely the jealous ones hence the need to attack mj.

anyway as i said b4 one of the main insigators of this thread is a known troll who was banned from other boards for making comments against mj. so there u go

depends if u are talking about the USA or world wide. scream and yana broke single records in the usa how much did history sell in the usa 4 mill double albums?? but if u wanna talk about WW figures than obvioulsy no one can compete with mj even with one album "only" sellling 10 mill plus. u are still looking at 30 mill sales from two albums and then if u count blood. even though its not really a proper album that sold dunno around 7 mill? ontop of the 30.

janet was massive through the janet and TVR eras no doubt. janet is a awesome album. need toget it out an listen to it. its been ages. i wish shes get back to those type of songs. shes needs a big song to get her back into things but i dunno maybe shes not using the correct song writers. is she still with jam and lewis cause nothing shs come out with in a long time has sounded fresh and different. songs like if and songs from TVR sounded like only songs janet could do. but now she just seem stuck doing songs that could be song by rhianna or any other box standard R&B singer thats out there. so shes gonna struggle when kids are listening to the likes of rhianna now who are 20 plus years younger than her and when she doesnt have a big enough hardcore fanbase that will still have her selling big numbers without kids buying her music she will always struggle

She jumped from 63 to 28. Not a flop and besides, this is a GH album. Just imagine how well it will do once she performs on X-Factor.
 
Yet another thread closed as the Janet vs Michael thing continues with arguments and bashings. It will not be tolerated so either when you open a thread about Janet discuss it in a civil manner, If you are unable to do that then just don't post. SIMPLE as.
I am aware that people are entitled to their opinions but these opinions simply go too far and I feel some just like to start a fight over it with some members.
Closed...
