REVIEW: JANET JACKSON'S-DISCIPLINE "I AM NOT TWENTY-ISH. I AM NOT THIRTY-ISH. TWO YEARS AGO, I WAS FORTY YEARS OLD. FORTY. FOUR OH!...MARGO CHANNING"

MISS JACKSON'S "DISCIPLINE" IS YET ANOTHER FORMULAIC COMPILATION OF BREATHY VOCALS, SOPHOMORIC LYRICS, AND HEAVY HANDED PRODUCTION...IN A NUTSHELL, A TYPICAL OUTING FOR THE AGING POP DIVA. AT FORTY PLUS YOU WOULD THINK JANET "MISS JACKSON IF UR NASTY" THE WOMAN SHOULD TAKE SOME RISK ...NOT HERE! FOREVER GIRLISH, JANET IS NOT TRYING TO MATURE MUSICALLY ALONG WITH HER CONTEMPORARIES...SHE'S STILL YEARNS TO PLAY "CORA IN FOOTSTEPS ON THE CEILING" NEVERTHELESS, IF YOU LIKED "CONTROL" IN 1986 YOU'RE IN LUCK 2008's "DISCIPLINE" IS THE SAME SHIT DIFFERENT DECADE...SORRY, CENTURY!
