A symbolic single from the Control period that ushered in a new era.
Produced by Jam & Lewis, this album features an innovative funk sound, combining powerful beats with sharp rhythmic compositions, and is a landmark album that established Janet as an independent artist.
Janet Jackson's vocals shine through amidst a hard-edged sound driven by synth bass and programmed rhythms. Rhythmic accents and minimal chord progressions create a sense of tension, symbolizing the production innovations of the late '80s. "He Doesn't Know I'm Alive," in contrast, displays a sweet and airy pop feel, maintaining the balance of the album. Jam & Lewis' meticulous production created a groundbreaking sound that brought female artists' agency to the forefront.
