janet jackson's influence in the music industry being reduced to dancers who sing or just artists whose main strength is dancing than singing is kind of a disservice to her influence/impact and her power as an artist.

i've realised how much her impact/influence crosses genres and actually moves artists who partake in other genres of music. alanis morisette declaring her experience with janet being a life changing one for her as an artist, definitely confirms all this.
