Unbreakable was released as the eleventh and most recent studio album by Janet Jackson. I am a huge fan so I had to get it. I have more records released from Janet than any other artist or group other than Mariah Carey and Madonna. Unbreakable is a great album.

Janet Jackson: Unbreakable [studio album]
Unbreakable was released as the eleventh and most recent studio album by Janet Jackson. I am a huge fan so I had to get it. I have more records released from Janet than any other artist or group other than Mariah Carey and Madonna. Unbreakable is a great album.
Janet Jackson ft. J. Cole: No Sleeep
No Sleeep was released as the lead single from Unbreakable. Unbreakable was released as Janet Jackson's eleventh and most recent studio album this year. It is so exciting for me as a huge Janet Jackson fan that I can hardly contain myself and have been buying more and more Janet Jackson material as a result.
Janet Jackson: Together Again [EP]
I downloaded the Together Again EP. It was a great decision as Together Again is a great single. It's my favorite track from The Velvet Rope. I attended a concert in support of The Velvet Rope. It was a world tour and it was thrilling to attend. Together Again remains one of my favorite tracks of all time as a result.
Janet Jackson: The Velvet Rope
Janet Jackson: All For You
Janet Jackson: Feedback
Feedback was released as the lead single from Discipline, Janet Jackson's tenth studio album and up until recently, her most recent. However, that all ended this year with the release of Unbreakable. That would be her eleventh studio release and quite frankly it is superb with a capital S. Discipline was good but it came after so many studio releases in a row, that I must say it was refreshing in a way; for Janet to wait over seven years to release Unbreakable.

Drake: 6 God
Drake: Hotline Bling
Hotline Bling was released just this year as a non-album single thus far. There is report of a possible studio release by Drake at the end of the year. We shall see and we shall also see if Hotline Bling is included on it and if in fact it is then re-categorized as the lead single from his supposed upcoming release. For now, we still have If You're Reading This It's Too Late to enjoy.
Future ft. Drake: Where Ya At
Where Ya At was released as a hit single from Future's third studio album entitled DS2. It features Canadian born rapper Drake and is a great track. It was so impressive as far as Drake was concerned, that I went on to buy his entire mixtape entitled If You're Reading This It's Too Late. I also bought Hotline Bling following that purchase.
Drake: If You're Reading This It's Too Late
Rihanna ft. Drake: What's My Name?
What's My Name? was released as the second single from Rihanna's fifth studio album entitled Loud. It features Canadian born rapper Drake and is a very impressive track. Drake blows me away on his tracks both featured and non-featured. He is actually way stronger on his non-featured tracks but he is a very impressive addition on his featured tracks.
Drake: Headlines
Drake: Over
Over was released as the lead single from Drake's debut studio album entitled Thank Me Later. It was a great album and even though Over has aged quite significantly, it still has a good sound. It was just way too trendy for its time. However, Drake has aged quite gracefully and I don't feel as though his current material will age as bad.

Mariah Carey: We Belong Together [maxi-single]
I bought a maxi-single of We Belong Together quite a while ago from Germany. It was a good decision but I didn't realize it until years later because at the time I was on the hunt for something else. However, Mariah Carey hires some of the best DJs in the biz and the remix on the We Belong Together single that I have is great.
Mariah Carey: Heartbreaker [maxi-single]
Mariah Carey: I Still Believe [maxi-single]
I just bought my second version of the I Still Believe maxi-single. It was a great choice. The first version I bought is almost twenty years old at this rate so I am glad I updated. There are different remixes found on it, believe it or not and since I am such a diehard Mariah Carey fan this novelty is a no brainer.
Mariah Carey: Auld Lang Syne
Auld Lang Syne was included as the last track on Mariah Carey's second Holiday album. I love her Holiday albums, they are the best and I love how she included more Holiday or secular Christmas music on the second album. It makes it more appealing commercially speaking. In this day and age every little bit helps. Something too religious doesn't always fly in mainstream society.
Mariah Carey: Obsessed
Mariah Carey: Loverboy
Loverboy was released as the lead single from the album entitled Glitter. Glitter was a soundtrack album of sorts, stemming from the motion picture of the same name. Mariah Carey starred in that film, a film that eventually flopped. However, Loverboy is a great single and remains one of my favorites released by Mariah Carey.
Mariah Carey: Fantasy
I would love to get my hands on the Fantasy single, if one exists. The best I can do right now is listen to the remix album I have of Mariah Carey's entitled the Remixes. There is a great remix of Fantasy included on that. Other than that, Fantasy was released as the lead single from the album entitled Daydream in 1995.
