Janet Jackson Shares Her Alluring New Lyric Video For "No Sleeep"

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Janet Jackson has once again shared a generous gift with her fans, this time dropping a full-length lyric video for her new single "No Sleeep." Lit with gorgeous neon colors, the video offers a much more immersive experience than the typical "words on the screen" approach with slow pans across the song's lyric sheets and a handful of tantalizing glimpses of Ms. Jackson at work in a recording studio. Cool, confident and sexy, the clip is a perfect match for the song that's had us nodding our heads in joy since it dropped last month. In a tweet announcing the video's arrival, the R&B empress called it "A tiny glimpse into our creative space while recording."

Janet Jackson's new album, which is rumored to be titled Conversations in a Cafe will drop later this year. Watch the full video below in all its polychrome loveliness and check Janet's current list of tour dates to see if she's coming to an arena near you this fall (don't worry, more dates will be announced soon).
