I mean, dont get me wrong I am always the dedicated fan...nonetheless artist are supposed to mature and evolve. Since the Janet album, you have given us the same theme and album structure (with the exception of Velvet Rope). I thnk the fans might have welcomed an 'evolution.' Perhaps, not necessarily a Sade like album though. But something neo soulish would definitely tickle my fancy. And I know you can do that Janet. You gave us a littel taste of that style with the song 'Got til its Gon.' A fantastic song!...that I think truely represented your growth as an artist...from the imagery to the lyrics.
