Janet Jackson Terminates Relationship With Record Label

Janet Jackson has announced her decision to sever ties with her record label, Island/Def Jam Records on Monday (September 22).

Speaking with People Magazine, her publicist said, "At her request, the record label has agreed to dissolve their working relationship. Now more than 20 years after the release of her iconic album, ‘Control’, Janet will have autonomy over her career, without the restrictions of a label system."

Jackson revealed her dislike for her label in June when speaking to hip-hop website SOHH.com.

"I'm trying to figure out a way to say this, but just to say it and to be quite honest, they just stopped all promotion whatsoever on the album, so I don't think you're going to hear another single off this album," stated Jackson.

Janet Jackson is currently on her ‘Rock Witchu’ tour to promote her album ‘Discipline’, which was released in July of 2007.
