Throwback Video: Beenie Man Featuring Janet Jackson - Feel It Boy



Janet Jackson has never been big on collaborations but the ones she has done have usually been with close friends, label mates, or artists under the same management. In this case Beenie Man was signed to Virgin Records as was Janet at the time which makes collaborations like this possible. The song was produced by The Neptunes and was a big hit at radio!

Janet Jackson took a lot of heat for doing this song with homophobic Beenie Man. Janet Jackson apologized to her gay fans and said that she never would have recorded the song with Beenie Man if she knew at the time that he was homophobic.

Since recording with Janet, Beenie Man had all of his performances at the Australian-New Zealand, "Big Day Out," festivals in November, 2009, canceled after protests on Facebook. Then, on December 5, 2009, Beenie Man performed "Mi Nuh Wallah," in Kampala, Uganda. In this song, he says he wants to cut the throats of all gay men.

That concert in Uganda was sponsored by the local Pepsi bottler. Pepsi headquarters apologized to the world for the sponsorship of this concert.

As of July, 2010, Beenie Man is unable to get a visa to work in the U.S.
