On her eighth studio album, Damita Jo--the title lifted from her middle name--Janet Jackson teams up with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis once again on what is perhaps the most feverish album in her two decade long career. Whether she's taking the listener on a torrid excursion in the four song island suite, or boasting of her sexual prowess on "Sexhibition's" word games lyrics, where she tells fans "relax, it's just sex," the singer tries hard--maybe too hard--to establish herself as a sexual avatar with portfolio. But in "Strawberry Bounce," she seems more like a pole dancer in stilettos than a social revolutionary, as she catalogs the way she plans to make her inamorato lose control, and she just sounds silly on "Moist," which extols the female orgasm. Instead, the best moments on the album are when Jackson comes off as saucy and winsome instead of a heavy breather, like on the down-tempo "Thinkin' Bout My Ex," her collaboration with Babyface, which seems lifted right out of her autobiography, and on the athletic Prince clone "Just A Little While." The title track is Jackson's own version of J-Lo's "Jenny On the Block," and she sounds just as insincere as Lopez when she tried to convince us that she was just an ordinary neighborhood diva. Instead, Janet's much more persuasive when she joins up with hip-hop savant Kanye West on "My Baby," pairing her breathy, little girl vocals to his sharp, focused rap. Then and only then does Damita Jo sound like love can actually trump sex. --Jaan Uhelszki

Janet will always be the best............2007-07-01

I was very impressed by this album, I love r&b so this album was on point for me. Don't get me wrong I loved Janet Jackson from the beginning but most of her music has been pop and for mainstream america. From the intro till the end Janet still proves she can hold her own. I'm proud of her and the success she has had over the years. Do your thang girl!!!!

janet still makes me want to dance all nite.......2007-05-20

my favorite song and video of janet jackson's is dance all nite don't stop it has an extremely sexy and a carribean beat that has janet make a lovely tiger or lion sound throughout the video she looks great in the music video i know she is a highly accomplished dance but i focused on her amazing abs throughout the video because she wore a very very small shirt which displayed her stomach i think i could see her thong that is how tight her shirt was that is handles down one of the high points of the video aside from the beautiful music beat and her dancing this is one of her top music videos of all time and one of the most attractive that I have seen in years this video made me realize that janet was one of the most attractive woman on the planet up there with halle berry alicia keys and aaliyah my favorite portion of the video when she repeatedly moves her body in a lovely matter, up and down, against the shinny mirror while she showcase her flawless six pack stomach in the video janet has one of the best six packs in the business i also liked it when she had her hat on and off she had her hat on when she was dancing and off when she was moving like a snake up and down the shinny mirror in my opinion this song is a little underrated because it was not played on the radio a whole lot against because people had a difficult time getting over her incident involving justin timberlake at the 2004 nfl superbowl but this video makes me forget about what had happen in february 2004 as she released this video a couple of months after the superbowl the final thing that i like about this video is how her straight hair kept almost fully covering her goodlooking face there was numerous occassions when her hair was in her mouth and when her hair covered her eyes it was just all the place and i loved it i donot know if it was purposedly or not but i know that it work and added more appeal to the video i do not think janet would ever be able to top this video ever again this video is up there with aaliyah's classic rock the boat jlo's remix get right and the [...] cat dolls song i don't need a man and stick with you her other video you know that i want you in early 2004 should not also be forgotten which i think is a tad better than this because the song has a better beat and sends a better message but i like this song dance all nite don't stop better than that because it help me look at ladies in a whole new different way

Maybe her greatest work ever..........2007-05-01

From the beginning of the cd to the end, great music. This is probably my favorite era ever of Janet. I just love this cd and the japanese version has two of her best songs... "I'm here" and "Put your hands on". This woman is just getting started and if you don't have this... you're missing out. Tracks I love: Spending time with you/ SloLove/ Truly/ Moist/ Sexhibition/ Like you don't love me/ Put your hands on/ I'm here/ Island Life.

MAKE SURE YOU PLAY IT LOUD!!!!!!!!!!!!

Skip this one, unless you want music to fall to sleep by.......2007-01-26

This is primarily an album of R&B lite and "Slow Jam" music. While there are a couple semi decent songs, this is not an album to grove or dance to. To be frank, I found it boring and a waste of Janet's time, an anyone (else's time) looking foreward an "Old School" jam. My adice is to listen to "Control", "Rythym Nation","Janet", "The Velvet Rope" or "All For You" until Janet's next album after "YO 20" comes out. Lots of "old School" Janet fans, such as myself, have also skipped "YO 20."

goodness gracious.......2006-12-31

some of the songs on here are really good and fit right in with the r&b and hip hop of 2004, but thanks to superbowl janet was boycotted everywhere. If she hadn't performed with that cracker justin timberlake she would have been all over the place like she deserved to be, but her bad choices led to her downfall and she still hasn't recovered from it, AT ALL.

Absolutely the Very Best of Damita Jo.......2003-06-22

This CD is very good in quality. Listening to this CD in comparision to a tape cassette given to me by Damita....it rates quite well. It leaves you with the spirit of Damita Jo DeBlanc, not DuBlanc. I loved it and cried feeling I was hearing her in this life again. She would be proud. I marveled at how clear her voice, rhythm and sound came across. I have the old albums, but the CD was better.

Damita has an unique way of interpretation !!!.......1998-11-28

A beautiful voice, an unusual sensitive interpretation, and the "If you go away" is a masterpeace; It sounds much better than being sang by its "father": Jack Brel (French Composer.) Whoever likes soft, pleasent, sensitive music, should not miss this CD.

Customer Reviews:

The bonus tracks should have been on the worldwide version........2004-10-12

Damita Jo is not my favorite Janet CD, in fact I think it's one of her weakest releases to date.. and that's why I don't understand why two of the best songs are only found on this very expensive Japanese version.
She should have dropped some of the boring ballads such as the embarrising and unsexy "Warmth" and "Moist" and put these pretty little songs on the CD instead.
I hope her next project sounds more original and fresh because I'm not buying ONE more Janet CD about sex. Enough is enough!

Bonus tracks help a lot !!!!.......2004-10-08

I have the 2 Damita Jo versions and I must say that the 2 bonus tracks raise the quality of her last work. Well, it is not a bad album, but it is kind of "dull" and repetitive. Technically the album is really well done, but it doesn't have the same energy or power than the others (janet, Velvet Rope). She manages to use perfectly different styles: Hip hop, Rock, R&B, Dance... but it still has less energy, less powerful lyrics... AND I think we all already know that she LOVES sex...
"I'm here" (very R&B) and "Put your hands on" (dancing...) are really good and should have been on the original album. My favorite songs are "Sexhibition" (unfortunately too short) "R&B Junkie", "All nite", "Put your hands on": the catchy songs & "Spending time with you" and "I'm here".
I regret that the "Country interlude" is not a song :(

I am a huge fan of Miss Janet, but this album is not her best.

Janet Damita Jo de la grande qualité musicale!!!!!!!wow!.......2004-09-15

J'avais déjà acheté trois copies de Damita Jo pour en donner un à mes amis tellement que j'ai adoré ce cd. L'album Damita Jo Import vaut vraiment la peine d'être acheté surtout pour les deux bonus track I'M HERE et PUT YOUR HANDS ON,ces deux chansons sont excellente. Il y en a une très R&B et l'autre assez dance.Dans la pochette vous retrouverez même les paroles en japonnais et en anglais également.Bref, mes morceaux préférés sur ce disque sont sans doute DON'T STOP (ALL NITE),SLO LOVE,R&B JUNKIE une très dance et groove ensuite SEXHIBITION,JUST A LITTLE WHILE,I WANT YOU et bien sûr les deux bonus track. Pour moi dans mon coeur c'est un excellent album import qui en vaut le coût.

Fabulous!.......2004-06-08

CD is Fabulous. Janet sounds happier and better than ever. A must for the Janet collection.

not janet's best.......2004-06-08

musically she did much better than all for you, but her voice and the lyrical content is very weak and very vulgar. The bonus tracks should have been featured on the worldwide release of the albu, they're some of the better songs on the album musically, I just wish she had made a better effort to use her voice on them instead of lazy, uninspired singing.

I'm still surprised that this one only sold 1 million copies in the USA. There are some standout tracks - Island Life, Spending Time With You, All Nite (Don't Stop) just to name a few.

HOT HOT HOT.......2004-10-23

I'm lovin Damita Jo!!

the best songs are in the middle,

r & b junkie
i want you
all nite
like you don't love me
island life
thinkin bout my ex

also strawberry bounce, just a little while, damita jo are really worth a listen.

then there are the baby-making songs warmth and moist that definitely earn the name "verbal viagra."

overall, a great album, one of the most under-rated of 2004!

pick it up today or give it as a christmas present!

also congratulations to Janet on her multiple nominations and awards this year including BET, Soul Train, and the upcoming Radio Music(Oct. 25th) and American Music Awards(Nov. 14)!:)

Review for "Damita Jo" by Janet Jackson.......2004-08-29

This album doesn't even seem like it is sung by the same woman who had us dancing with "Rhythm Nation", but she tries to fit in and make all her songs about sex. Some people complain that the arrangements tend to "drown out" her voice, but that has been the case since Janet first started singing. There are very few highlights on this album: the title track is absolutely awesome, as well as the single "I Want You" and "Just A Little While". Although "All Nite (Don't Stop)" is a big hit and a great dance track, its still a typical sex song like most of the tracks. "Sexhibition" (known as "Exhibition" on the clean version) and "Strawberry Bounce" tell us too much information, and thank God that "Moist" and "Warmth" were omitted from this "clean" version. All of this being said, "Thinkin' About My Ex" and "Spending Time With You" are two of the major highlights of the album. Some of the songs are really good, but there is just as many good ones as there is bad. And the over five spoken interludes slow down the pace of the CD and to be honest, they're just boring. Listen to the samples before you buy this CD...

The side that she doesn't hide , but may never show..........2004-07-10

this record is far too dirty to be censored. trust me , you're making a mistake if you buy the clean version of this album. they cut words out like "ass" , "fourplay" , and "doin'" (as in "having sex") . they also cut out the part in "like you don't love me" when she said "xxx porn" (in the second verse). i swear , they wouldn't have censored this record the way they did , had she not gone on television a month earlier (on the superbowl halftime show) and exposed her right breast. but she didn't even show anything , her nipple was covered!!! i also am dissapointed because the songs "warmth" (about giving a ... well , i'll let you judge for youself!) and "moist" are not included on this CD. trust me , buy the filthy version of this album , it's a lot better.

Average.......2004-06-01

"DAMITA JO" has a few highs and lows. The best songs are "Damita Jo", "Exhibition", and "I Want You". There are a few other notable songs, but I think these three stand out. I personally don't care for the interludes, I think some are really silly and make the album seem somewhat boring. Some of the songs for me were just a bit on the silly side such as "R&B Junkie". It is by no means a terrible album, nor by any a great one, so I give it 3 stars for being average.
