Janet Jackson just dropped another major bomb for fans and friends with her new club-ready song "BURNITUP!" ahead the release of her much-anticipated Unbreakable album, due to be released on October 2.

After releasing few critical-acclaimed songs, "No Sleeep" and "Unbreakable", this time Miss Jackson sets her comeback with a dance floor jam, possibly could be a dance anthem, collaboration with Missy Elliott. The song made its radio debut on BBC Radio 1 on Thursday.

The song was debuted during the first show of her Unbreakable World Tour in Vancouver, CA and so far was included in the setlist for all of her shows. The song garnered positive feedback from most audience, commending Janet's comeback to her dance root and further building anticipation for her new album.

We sure can't wait to listen and see Miss Jackson in more action, at age of 49! Anyway, for fans of Janet, this song does remind me of those songs during her Discipline era, doesn't it? So listen to this considerably fierce song featuring Missy's rap-infused and Janet's delicate voice.

Janet also revealed the album cover as previously posted a video of the photoshoot with photographer Yu Tsai. Few comments have also sparked a debate over her new choice of style which, by some, is considered as 'not a Janet as we know.'

Also, the album's lead single, “No Sleeep,” have recently returned to the peak position on both Billboard's Urban AC and Adult R&B charts. The album release comes on the 30th anniversary of their groundbreaking collaboration on her “Control” album.

Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis on the album's development, commented, “It’s wonderful to be creating again with Janet. From songwriting, producing, arranging, singing, dancing, acting, she deftly does it all and truly personifies the word artist. Unbreakable is a gift to all of her fans who have steadfastly stood by her. It is a subject for conversation, a plea for compassion, and a call for action from someone who’s come a long way, but’s got a long way to go, and has much to say about it. In other words, if you want to know what’s on her mind you only have to listen.”

The album is described by the singer herself as a 'very personal' record. Her Unbreakable World Tour is currently touring in Canada and will stop in Japan before returning for the North American leg. To date, 68 dates have been announced for the tour.

Alright, Janet Jackson's comeback is really due. The singer just dropped a bomb on June 22 with the release of her first single in five years (ICYMI, Janet released a single, "Nothing", in 2010), her lead single for her upcoming comeback album, called "No Sleeep."

As it was revealed few months ago, Janet's comeback is in the process. Since then, Janet has dropped so many bombs with the announcement of her Unbreakable World Tour, a sneak peek of the backup dancers audition and few cryptic videos indicating her new music. And recently this new single surfaced online and has got her fans screaming in front of their electronic gadgets with and without voice.

So they say, Janet would never let her fans down. "No Sleeep" is a proof. Co-written and produced by Jackson herself and her longtime collaborators, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, her new song takes to a specific throwback to her songs like "That's the Way Love Goes" and those during the Velvet Rope era, but here in an updated version. The sultry and smooth groove depicts a kind of clean and neat production which seemingly avoids what today's songs sound like. The song particularly matches the dedication to her fans and her lover. Also, her signature breathy vocals seem to match in any music genres. It's true, Janet is still a living pop icon who experiments on music in a slight different way. That goes out with her songs considerably to be classic and iconic tunes.

In conclusion, "No Sleeep" slays. So, be sure to follow Janet's new music updates because she's a pop icon who makes good music, I guarantee.

Janet's new album is due to be released this fall and her Unbreakable World Tour tickets is on sale. For more information, go to Janet Jackson's official website.
