She made the announcement in a special video message, which featured new music playing in the background. On top of that, she also joined instagram. The last time Janet released an album was with 'Discipline' in 2008. Seven years too long. Can you believe it? New album! New world tour! I fucking can't!
An eleventh studio album, yes please! Who'd have expected the legendary Ms. Jackson to make this announcement on her birthday?!?! This was like a bolt from out of the blue. Nobody saw it coming. It's like Christmas has come early. Happy birthday Janet, and thank you for slaying our weekend!
