Janet Jackson is “Unbreakable” but she will also be un-awardable. Interesting. Janet releases her new album “Unbreakable” on October 2nd. The deadline for Grammy eligibility is September 30th. So only Janet’s “No Sleeep” single will make the Grammy deadline.
Listen to her new track “Unbreakable”
So what’s going on here? For some reason, Janet and her team are opting out of the Grammys. I’m surprised. They had a good shot at Best R&B album nominations. My guess is they’ll go for a performance on the American Music Awards in November. That would preclude them from a Grammy performance anyway.
