1814
Why 1814?Mark Richards 23:23, 7 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- I believe it had something to do with the year at which the enslavement of black-Africans became extremely prominant. Pacian 06:31, 29 Apr 2004 (UTC)
NPOV
I have heavily edited the original article to remove all of the non-NPOV commentary. I have to say, the article suspiciously seemed to have been copied from another source, right down the "personnel" details - like something you would see in the MUZE machine at Tower Records. At any rate, I removed all the blubbering praise and flattering comments about how great and fabulous a singer-dancer she is. Pacian 06:31, 29 Apr 2004 (UTC)
Concept album
In the second paragraph of the section titled "Background" it says:
Rhythm Nation 1814 is a concept album addressing social ills - at least, up until the end of the third song. Track seven (the interlude titled "Let's Dance") is Jackson saying "Get the point? Good. Let's dance", after which the album reverts to more typical love-song/dance song fare, with any 'political' content barely mentioned again.
Which doesn't make sense. Was it a concept album for three songs or seven? I believe if you listen to the album it is clear that it was a concept to track seven, however at 20 tracks long that isn't even half. It might be more accurate to say that the first seven tracks were concept however the entire album didn't adhere to the political flavour of the start. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.238.84.64 (talk) 14:51, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
