Janet Jackson has released her latest single and it features Missy Elliott, so one would assume that this would indeed be fire, but sadly, it’s not.

I don’t know anymore, perhaps icons like Janet and Madonna are too far removed that anything they release just falls flat in terms of having any chance to be a hit. “Burn It Up” isn’t a bad song by any means but when you ask yourself if the masses are going to want to hear this, I can promise you the answer is no.

Whatever the case, Janet and Madonna don’t need a hit, they’ve cemented themselves into POP culture history, anything they do now is to please the fans. Here’s to wishing and hoping that one day, they will have radio relevancy again.

Oh, and apparently there’s a Naughty Boy remix coming of this track, maybe that’ll do the trick?
