Nasty

About Nasty

"Nasty" is a song by American singer Janet Jackson from her third album Control (1986). It was released in April 15, 1986 by A&M Records as the album's second single. It is a funk number built with samples and a quirky timpani melody. The first and last 30 seconds incorporate the emphases from "Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine" but in a different key. The single peaked at number three on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number one 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. It ranked number 30 on VH1's 100 Best Songs of the Past 25 Years, number 45 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of the 80s, number 79 on Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Pop Songs, and number six on LA Weekly's Best Pop Songs in Music History by a Female. It has been included in each of Jackson's greatest hits albums: Design of a Decade: 1986–1996 (1995), Number Ones (2009) and Icon: Number Ones (2010). more »
