Compare the popularity Janet Jackson has with the younger generation of today to someone like Bob Seger instead of Madonna or Beyonce for example, and the obvious answer speaks for itself.

Madonna is a weak vocalist herself, I actually think Janet is a much better singer than her.
Beyonce has a stronger voice than Janet but that is pretty much it... lol
She can not dance and she definitely can not dance better than Janet
She is not creative
She is not innovative
Her discography is disposable and bland
She not a better overall artist than Janet.
I actually would rather listen to Janet sing because her singing has more personality and she is able to connect with her audiences on a emotional level versus an artist like Beyonce.
Also, Madonna has always been a bigger star than Janet. Even during her peak in the 90's MJ, Madonna etc have always been bigger stars but Janet was still a superstar and was still recognized for HER contributions to popular music and music videos unlike today.
My only issue is I think her influence and impact could get more acknowledgement.
If it was not for Janet, it would not be a Beyonce, Britney Spears, etc.
