After the release of her first two albums, Janet Jackson fired her father as he manager and released Control, a landmark album that not only pioneered the genre New Jack Swing, but also helped Janet to step out from under her brother Michael's shadow and establish herself as more than just a novelty act. Now, Pat and Derek discuss whether the album is one of the all-time greats or if it's just plain "Nasty."
