Stepping into 1986, Janet Jackson had two albums under her belt with 1982’s Janet Jackson followed by 1984’s Dream Street. The albums introduced sweet, explorations of love and a dance-fueled Janet that gained a wide range of fans. However, as the multi-talented entertainer gained more experiences, what bloomed from the youngest Jackson was a turn up in ‘tude and full “Control” in life, career and maturity.
“Control” release date: February 4, 1986 by A&M Records.
In this throwback interview, dug up from the JPC archives, lady Jackson talks taking control of her life and lessons she learned from the industry!
