About The Record:

Nasty, by Janet Jackson, was released as the second single from her album Control. It is a funk number built with samples and a quirky timpani melody. The single peaked at No. 3 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and No. 1 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, and remains one of Jackson's signature songs. The line "My first name ain't baby, it's Janet – Miss Jackson if you're nasty" has been used in pop culture in various forms. The song won for Favorite Soul/R&B Single at the 1987 American Music Awards. The accompanying music video for "Nasty" was directed by Mary Lambert and choreographed by Paula Abdul, who also made a cameo. Abdul won an MTV Video Music Award for Best Choreography.
