So I was standing on 50th street in front of the World Theater smoking on a Newport.
I was supposed to be inside listening to the new Janet Discipline
LP, but once her slow jams started playing, I slipped outside to get a grip on
a nicotine fit. While blowing smoke in
Mike Epps face, I spot a clean black SUV pull up and security detail hop out. Before I could shush Mike, a sleek black high heeled boot hit the pavement.
Within moments, a dominatrix esque Janet whisked by, and I’m
left speechless. The quickest cigarette
stub in history happens, as I follow J. back inside to get Disciplined.
As she makes her entrance the music stops and she’s called on stage by the new EIC of Blender magazine (this pretty much insures a Blender cover). They have an exchange on all things Discipline, which pretty much ends
with J., proclaiming her love of sex, and mentioning how it all came together –
thanks to Neyo and Jermaine.
From what I heard Discipline is definitely more interesting
than 20YO or Damita Jo. And from the
crowd reaction – a lot of screaming and “I love you Janet,” from the media elite crowd – it all seems like a lot of good energy this time
around.
On another note, I guess smoking has its perks.
