Following a three-year world tour and the release of a greatest hits album, Janet Jackson began writing her most personal and introspective songs.

    #JCsMusicology - Prince (1987 - 1988)

    In our Season 3 return of #JCsMusicology, we take a trip through the making of Prince's Lovesexy album. 1987 was a big year for Prince. With the release of Sign O' The Times, the opening of Paisley Park, and the establishment of a new band, he was set to cap the year off with the release of The Black Album. After a drug-induced epiphany and a new acquaintance, Prince cancelled the release, sending thousands of copies for destruction. He then commenced work on its rebuttal and replacement, Lovesexy. Using rarely heard early versions and unheard session tapes, we explore the makings of Prince's spiritual declaration. Interview Credits: 07.5 WBLS, MTV Presents Prince, The Electrifying Mojo, Oprah, Entertainment Tonight, VH-1 To 1, CNN Cover Version, BET Talkback, Fast Forward, Larry King, MTV News, NBC Today Show, The View, TROS, BET - Words and Music, CBS Early Show, CNBC, Much More Music, Tavis Smiley and The Biz.

    06/07/2020

    #JCsMusicology - Michael Jackson (1977 - 1980)

    In this episode of #JCsMusicology, we deconstruct each song from Michael Jackson's first solo album as an adult artist, Off The Wall. Once The Jacksons gained more independence with their group work, allowing them to write and produce the vast majority of their albums, Michael also began to plot his own emancipation. By starring in The Wiz and meeting up with Quincy Jones, a significant musical partnership was formed and a team was assembled. Using demos and multitrack tapes, we learn how one of the greatest albums in history was crafted. Interview Credits: Roundtable, Sylvia Chase, WBLS Frankie Crocker, Countdown, John Pigeon, Robbie Vincent Show, Steve Rosen, Diane Collins, Spotlight Special, Mexico Deposition, 2001 Special Edition, Make it Funky, BBC, Ebony, NVLP, Joy, Journey from Motown to Off the Wall, Red Bull Music, Artist Series and Sweetwater.

    In this episode of #JCsMusicology, we analyse the early works of Erykah Badu, also known as Badulla Oblongata, Sara Bellum, and Analogue Girl in a Digital World. As part of the holy trinity of Neo-soul albums in the late '90s, Erykah Badu released 'Baduizm' to critical acclaim, generating four singles and earning two Grammy Awards. Her follow-up, 'Mama's Gun,' would meet similar success with its accolades and critical reception. Before taking a five-year hiatus, her third studio album, 'Worldwide Underground,' would be yet another progression in her artistic expression, accentuating live instrumentation and varying vocal styles.

    #JCsMusicology - Kate Bush (1987 - 1994)

    In this episode of #JCsMusicology, we explore the enigmatic Kate Bush's work before her first hiatus. After the release of 'Hounds of Love,' which is often regarded as one of the greatest albums of all time, Kate Bush would continue to develop as an artist with her follow-up album, 'The Sensual World.' After a four-year gap, 'The Red Shoes' would follow. In 2011, selections from each album would be re-recorded to create 'Director's Cut,' a cohesive album that stands on its own.

    #JCsMusicology - Madonna (1987 - 1989)

    In our Season 3 premiere, we analyse each track from Madonna's 'Like A Prayer' album. Continuing her successful partnerships with producers Patrick Leonard and Stephen Bray, Madonna released the iconic 'Like A Prayer' in 1989, with a slight purple touch. It was indisputably her most thoughtful and introspective album up to that point, displaying a clear evolution in her artistry.

    #JCsMusicology - Joni Mitchell (1977 - 1979)

    In this November episode of #JCsMusicology, we continue exploring the genius of Joni Mitchell's work. After a consistent run of renowned albums, each more innovative than the last, Joni Mitchell progresses her experimentation with 'Don Juan's Reckless Daughter' in 1977. This bold artistry proves auspicious when the legendary Charles Mingus calls on her to articulate what he can no longer say, giving rise to the 'Mingus' album.
