Five-time Grammy winner and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Janet Jackson will release a new deluxe edition of her sixth full-length album, The Velvet Rope, on Friday, Oct. 7—the 25th anniversary of the original 1997 release date.
With 10 new-to-platform bonus tracks available on streaming platforms for the first time, the new edition includes sought-after B-sides and remixes, including two rarities, “Accept Me” and “God’s Stepchild.”
The collection also has multiple remixes that were only available as CD singles. These include Teddy Riley’s TNT Remix of “I Get Lonely” featuring BLACKstreet, the J. Dilla (Ummah Jay Dee) remix of “Got ‘Til It’s Gone” and Timbaland/Missy “Misdemeanor” Elliott’s remix of “Go Deep.” Also included are club mixes of various tracks by David Morales & Frankie Knuckles, Masters at Work, Tony Moran, Jason Nevins and Tony Humphries.
In addition, remastered versions of Jackson’s iconic music videos will also be available to watch on YouTube for the first-time ever in HD, including “Go Deep,” “I Get Lonely,” “You,” “Got ‘Til It’s Gone,” and “Together Again [Deeper Remix].”
The Velvet Rope is one of Rolling Stone magazine’s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
