Free Music Notes for Rhythm Nation 1814
Free Music Review: One of Miss Jackson's Best Albums
Hit: 5 Stars
The socially-concerned Rhythm Nation 1814 is pop star Janet Jackson and mega-producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis at their collective best. The album was an unprecedented success, spawning a record-setting 7 top 5 singles, with chart-toppers in 3 different years - 1989, 1990, and 1991. No album since has matched these accomplishments. The synth-driven songs range from the funk-heavy societal commentaries of "Rhythm Nation" (built on a Sly and the Family Stone sample) and "State of the World" to soft ballads dripping with harmonies like "Come Back to Me" and "Lonely." In between are dance-pop classics like "Escapade," "Love Will Never Do," "Miss You Much," and the rock song "Black Cat," all of them Billboard number-ones. "Someday is Tonight" closes the album perfectly with a tantalizing preview of Janet's awaiting incarnation. Rhythm Nation 1814 is the rare album with no filler; I regularly listen to it from beginning to end without ever skipping a track. Janet and her Flyte Tyme producers managed to create an album that was timely and remains timeless. 5 Stars.
Rhythm Nation 1814 Poster
Picking up where the breakthrough funk-pop of Control left off, Janet Jackson and her production team of Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis laced Rhythm Nation with high-minded references to societal ills--seldom the favored province of dance music, but a daring attempt nonetheless. Songs like "State of the World" and "The Knowledge" follow in the tradition of "free your mind and your ass will follow." Still, aside from the title track, it was the pure pop fare and dance music that stormed the charts: "Escapade," "Love Will Never Do (Without You)," "Alright," and "Come Back to Me" concentrate on the politics of personal relationships, not public policy, while "Black Cat" burns the place down with a fierce burst of hard rock. Rhythm Nation 1814 doesn't necessarily hang together thematically, but it's so chock full of hits, you scarcely notice. --Daniel DurchholzBlues Music CDs
