\n\tPop and R&B icon Janet Jackson<\/a> extends her Billboard Hot 100<\/a> chart history into a fifth decade via her feature on Cardi B<\/a>\u2019s \u201cPrincipal,\u201d which debuts at No. 92 on the list dated Oct. 4. Jackson joins Cher and Madonna as the only women<\/a> to have new Hot 100 hits in five distinct decades.<\/p>\n

\n\tThanks to \u201cPrincipal,\u201d Jackson lands her first Hot 100 credit since \u201cMade for Now,\u201d a 2018 collaboration with Daddy Yankee, and has now charted in every decade since the 1980s.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cPrincipal\u201d traces its Hot 100 entrance largely to 4.9 million official streams in the United States for the Sept. 19-25 tracking week, according to Luminate, with a small assist from 1,000 sales downloads and 725,000 radio audience impressions.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Cardi B-Jackson collaboration appears on Cardi B\u2019s new album, Am I the Drama?, which debuts at No. 1 on this week\u2019s Billboard 200<\/a> albums chart.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs pop-music fans might suspect, \u201cPrincipal\u201d features a sample of Jackson\u2019s \u201cThe Pleasure Principle.\u201d The Control single climbed to a No. 14 high in August 1987, helped by its music video with a well-remembered dance routine that won an MTV Video Music Award for best choreography at the 1988 ceremony.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe youngest of Joseph and Katherine Jackson\u2019s children, Jackson made her Hot 100 debut in December 1982 with \u201cYoung Love,\u201d which reached a No. 64 best the following month. After early show-business exposure as an actress, she pivoted to music with her self-titled debut LP in 1982 and its follow up, 1984\u2019s Dream Street. Both had modest commercial results, but her star exploded with her third album, Control, which topped the Billboard 200 and sparked six top 20 Hot 100 hits, including \u201cThe Pleasure Principle\u201d and her first of 10 No. 1s, \u201cWhen I Think of You.\u201d<\/p>\n
