Singersroom: In regards to Janet Jackson’s new album, what new direction are we going to see?
Rodney Jerkins: We’re really playing around and trying to really target her fans. You know old school Janet is what we as fans knew her as, so we’re really trying to target that sound. While still trying to mix it in with something new; be able to touch it to different world types of sound like: Brazilian music, Latin music, you know just different sounds from around the world; there’s one that’s African inspired. Just real high energy for Janet, some soul…it’s a real tight project.

In a new interview with Sister 2 Sister magazine, Janet has raised questions over her future in music and said her newfound passion for behind-the-scenes television work is taking up lots of her time.
“I have been getting more behind the scenes with film and television. I will probably continue to do music and acting is still a strong passion of mine – but I really have been loving behind-the-scenes work: producing, directing and all the technical stuff.“
She also talks about her relationship with former record label Island Def Jam. She says whilst the label wanted her to slow things down and release music like Sade, Janet knew her dance tracks are the ones fans want to hear.
“They wanted me to sound more like Sade [and I said] I’m not ready for that just yet. I love doing dance songs and I think my fans expect that of me.”
When asked about her desire to have children, Janet replied:
“At some point it’s coming. When? I have no idea. He (Jermaine Dupri) has been past ready. He’s just waiting for me; I’m the one holding up the whole thing. Everyone tells me that there will never be a good time, that I will always be busy, but I just think when the stars are aligned it will happen.”
