Janet Jackson is simply one of if not the sexiest female performers live and in concert. Because she’s a not just a singer, but a performer who is also a great dancer. And then you combine that with her beautiful baby-face appearance and the great body and how well she shows off her body and I don’t know of a sexy performer right now. She is so professional and not just great onstage, but the work she does offstage to remain the great performer that she is.

If you have a front row seat to a Janet Jackson concert, that seat should be probably worth somewhere around a million dollars. Even if you are not a fan of her music and I like some her songs, but not all of them, but whatever she’s singing, she always looks great singing and performing because of talents and ability to both move and sing as a performer. And all the work that she does offstage to stay in the great shape she’s always been in.

Janet Jackson: Black Cat Official Video (1989)

Janet Jackson’s Rhythm Nation I believe is her best album. But if I had to name one of her songs that’s better than any of her other Rhythm Nation songs, it’s Black Cat that came out in early 1990 and produced in 1989. It’s a great classic rock song performed with an R&B flavor and style that only an R&B diva like Janet Jackson could do.

This is one of my favorite classic rock songs and I’m a big classic rock fan (not just physically) and one reason why it is one of my favorite classic rocks, is because of the singer. And Janet Jackson simply nailed this song and I don’t know anyone that could’ve done a better job of singing this song other than maybe Tina Turner.

And another reason why this is one of my favorite classic rock songs, is because it’s sung by someone who is not a classic rock singer, at least full-time. Janet is primarily a rhythm and blues singer and does a great job. But here she shows her great versatility.

I think the really great talented singers can sing more than just one style of music. Tina Turner would be a great example of that who is both a rhythm and blues and classic rock singer and also combines those two great sounds into blues rock. Eric Clapton and Dave Matthews does the same thing and I’m big fans of both.

Janet with Black Cat becomes a rock star in the real sense. Not in the pop culture sense of someone considered awesome or cool. But someone who is a great singer rock singer. Who has great material and delivers it beautifully.

Janet Jackson: If, Scream, Rhythm Nation: Sydney Australia (2011)

I think Janet Jackson is a helluva good singer and performer. But what has always made her great, what separates her from the pack (at least in the world of rhythm and blues) is her ability to communicate what she’s talking about with her music with her writing and delivery, as well as her sexuality.

You see Janet Jackson dance on stage, even from your TV or computer, especially during her Up Close and Personal tour from 2011, you would think she was the sexiest female performer, at some hot nightclub, or showgirl in Las Vegas. She’s just beyond sexy and beautiful and there isn’t a sexier dancer, with a better body and delivery than Janet Jackson, eother.
