A few lines from a couple songs and some suggestive presentation guarantees that a significant amount of the reaction to Discipline, Janet's tenth studio album, will feast upon the singer's lack of judiciousness when it comes to expressing her sexuality. Leave the teasing and explicitness to the teens and younger twenty-somethings -- not the grown women -- right? Janet should get back to making sunny, uncomplicated songs like "Escapade" and pretend that the occasional-to-frequent salaciousness extending back to Control never existed.

Everybody knows Janet Jackson likes her fantasies. The whisper-voiced star has been purveying elegant soft-core for half of her two decades in the musical spotlight, transforming herself into pop's equivalent of Anaïs Nin. (It's fun to think that Madonna gave up smut for spirituality, in part, because she realized Janet had claimed the corner on being nasty.) That Miss Jackson continues to explore subjects like bondage and autoeroticism should disappoint no one; to ask her to cease is like asking Bruce Springsteen to stop writing about girls in their summer clothes....full text
