Today, 29 years ago, Janet Jackson released her magnum opus, The Velvet Rope.
Her most introspective and personal work, the concept album fused R&B and pop with trip-hop, dance, folk, jazz, rock, and techno, creating one of the most adventurous sonic statements of her career.
Ellen von Unwerth photographed Janet for the album’s artwork, with additional photography by Mario Testino.

This idea that the release of this doc was planned as some sort of political move is nonsense. This is a licensed title coming to Netflix that was announced back in August and is not timed to real world events.
You can see the timeline for the release clearly laid out months ago in a “Whats on Netflix” article (linked below). I reached out to Netflix and they confirmed the release date of this doc has been consistent.
You can take issue with the content of the doc (I certainly do), but Netflix did not time the release to coincide with Sanders/Amodei statements or any sort of recent news events.
🚨 1/ Watch this AI Doomer trailer. Then read the timeline.
Netflix drops “The AI Apocaloptimist Doc” tomorrow — Sept 15 — to 260+ million subscribers.
This film took 3 years to make. It premieres 12 days after Sanders–Casar, 7 days after the Anthropic “whistleblower,” 3 days after Amodei’s “Pace the Frontier.”
That’s not a coincidence. That’s a launch. 🧵👇
H/t @TheRoyalGrift for the scoop.

This Earth, Wind & Fire documentary has really inspired me. Been watching it on repeat. Maurice White really was a visionary. I appreciate that brother, man. His music really did fill up my childhood. Can't think of their music and not think about it.
