Janet Jackson is taking her career worldwide again. The music icon has landed a global representation agreement with Paradigm Talent Agency to expand her horizons in touring, theatre, film and branding.
“Janet Jackson is one of the most iconic and culturally significant artists of all time and we are thrilled to partner with her to create global opportunities for her as an artist and for the art she creates,” said Sam Gores, chairman and CEO of Paradigm. “We will also seek inspiring opportunities to support Janet’s long history and dedication to social activism and female and gender advocacy.”
This collaboration between Jackson and Paradigm is quite ideal. With a dynamic legacy that spans more than 30 years, Jackson has solidified her role as a global icon.
The legendary artist lives up to her role as a global ambassador with a Latin-inspired version of her latest single “Made for Now” featuring Daddy Yankee. The Afrocentric version, which was released in July, was meant to bring people together. The release is part of Jackson’s forthcoming EP, which features production from Harmony Samuels.
“I worked on most of the EP,” Samuels said to Rated R&B in August. “Each song has a different feel. Each song has a different style. She bodies it! She does her thing.”
