About This Track

“You” is a song by American singer Janet Jackson from her sixth studio album, The Velvet Rope (1997). It was released as the album’s fifth single in September 1998. “You” contains a sample from War’s 1972 song “The Cisco Kid”, penned by Harold Brown, Sylvester Allen, Morris Dickerson, Howard Scott, Leroy Jordan, Lee Oskar, and Charles Miller. Although the single received a promo release in the United Kingdom, it was ineligible to chart there. The Japanese commercial release includes a B-side from The Velvet Rope called “Accept Me”, a song about a woman begging acceptance from her lover, family, and the world. The song would also be released on follow-up single “Every Time”.

The song lyrics were alleged to have been written as a message to Jackson’s brother Michael Jackson with whom she had a conflict after they made a collaboration on 1995’s “Scream”.
