| Purpose of use |
Used in the Janet Jackson article as an example of a critical understanding of Jackson's musical style, via analysis of the song's production and rhythmic arrangement – elements which cannot be reasonably expected to be conveyed adequately by prose. Song has additional relevance as a work central to Jackson’s success and as piece for which Jackson has received significant recognition for her socially conscious lyrics. "Rhythm Nation" is a prominent example of new jack swing, fusing rhythm and blues with funk, industrial music and the alternating use of vocals rapped in spoken verse and sung in octave. |
