Janet Jackson will make her only concert appearance of 2010 at this year’s “Essence Music Festival”, on July 4th in New Orleans. It will be the first time that she will perform at the “Essence Music Festival” and her first concert since 2008.
She will also perform on the opening night of the festival, on July 2nd. The official announcement was made today with the release of Janet Jackson’s new song “Nothing” on iTunes.
Essence was the first magazine to feature Janet Jackson on its cover. This year’s festival will surely be as special to Janet as it will be to the organizers and fans. Mary J. Blige, Jill Scott, Alicia Keys, Earth Wind and Fire, Keri Hilson, Gladys Knight, Raphael Saadiq, and many others will also be part of this year’s festival line up.
