Janet Jackson Brings Out Busta Rhymes, Gets Her Flowers: What's It Gonna Be - MSG New York NY 5/9/23 

Hard to believe they’ve never performed that song on stage together! Great song, but also one of the greatest music videos of all time.

This song was everywhere in 98! Every radio station, grocery store, church cookout was playing this 😂

I was screaming when he came out. I was so glad to witness this in person 🥹🥹

The entire performance was LEGENDARY but Busta's Walk in with the crowds reaction was Iconic!!!

Love how she guided her career without sacrificing her dignity, yet she rose to the top. She didn’t sell her body top executives to get to the top, she put her talent to work and buy her own legacy outside of her family’s legacy!!

Wowwww! Okay two reactions: 1) We did not get this in Orlando 😢 and 2) THIS IS SOOOOO AWESOME!!!! Busta Rhymes showed us how to properly honor a Queen!! He schooled us 🥰. I’m so touched to see this! Thanks for sharing 😊.

Wow, finally, they get to share the stage together. I love how Buster Busta Rhymes just praised her and gave her her flowers. That was so beautiful❤💐❤💐❤💐

This was an amazing show. I was screaming the entire show. I have no voice. When Busta came on the stage the crowd went wild...rightly so. Janet did her thang....kudos to Busta for giving the queen her flowers...well deserved.

The crowd ERUPTED when Busta walked out! The entire show was amazing and full of energy, but this was a once in a lifetime event to be here!

*HER BABY FACE IS SO CUTEEEE I CANT BELIEVE HOW SHE STILL LOOK LIKE SHE WAS LOOKING ON GOODTIMES PLAYING AS A LITTLE GIRL*

Janet can be surprised and still keep it moving. True professional - deserving of all her flowers 🌹🌺🌹

So happy I was born in this R&B era 80 's baby.

Busta always gives people their flowers and shows everyone love. I love that.

I saw her in Georgia. She brought out JD as a guest performer. Her concert was everything!!!! 😊❤

I wish that I could have been there in person! I’ve been saying this for years that I wish that Janet and Busta could perform this song again and it finally happened!!! Love this!!!❤❤❤

That humongous bouquet was Gorgeous! We women of a particular age Loooove, love flowers! Busta Rhymes did that right! His eloquent and sincere words of appreciation were the mist beautiful. I love this tribute to Miss Jackson🎉😍🥳🙏🌞

Man oh man this was sooooooooo Epic, it made me cry😢. I loves me some Janet and to see so many people still supporting and loving on her for not only being a phenomenal and legendary performer, entertainer, dancer and Icon, but showing thwir appreciation for being the humble, sweet, and kind hearted Empress that she is. And for Busta showing his gratitude and Love and respect is the icing on the cake. And with so many male execs in the industry calling the shots on how women should be and them trying to ruin her because she wouldn't bend for them, but marking her own path is pure STRENGTH and Janet not only earned her career, she OWNS it....and deserves all of the blessings she receives. That was a beautiful and authentic moment that I will never forget.

This was incredible! Love her outfit! Janet always exudes sex appeal without having to show a lot of skin. She's just an amazing performer to see in concert! Always a fan!

My momma used to say, "Smiling like a Cheshire Cat" Buss was grinning!

Bus shooting his shot and i aint mad 😂 well done king 👑🎤 2 legends on stage for one night only , amazing moment 🔥🔥

I loved every minute of this. Janet deserves all her flowers and so does Busta! That song is so iconic and that was their first time? Wow!

i cried! all my millennial brothers and sisters stand up!

That was sweet. You can tell it was genuine and not Hollywood. Sure it's was scripted but the emotions were real.

How he snuck that feel at 1:16 tho 😂😂 *Janet swiftly moves away and gives Buss the death stare (as he mischievously grins)* all while singing on cue 👏🏽

So happy they got to share the stage & perform this song. “What’s it gonna be” was and still is one of the greatest & innovative videos of all time

What an amazing moment . Busta rose up and in my eyes is one classy ,talented man!!!!

This is one of the most beautiful and heartfelt tributes I have ever seen. I grew up loving both of them in the 90s and this really warmed my heart. Wow! ❤

What a night! I was screaming and my phone ran out of storage when he came out, but I will remember how it felt. Thanks for sharing this. I knew my co-fans wouldn’t disappoint ❤️

I feel like this song should have had a super-bowl halftime show moment.

Busta did a beautiful job of showing his love for Jan. Incredible! I almost cried my dang self. I absolutely look forward to going to this concert when she gets back home to CALIFORNIA! CALIFORNIA 💕 LOVE!

Beautiful, yes, give her all her flowers the Queen!!!

That was so nice of Busta to do that for her. Janet Jackson is a legend give her those flower's 🌺🌸💗 Happy Mother's Day Janet 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

I'm cheesing like I'm right there. Two of my favourite legends. The greatest female performer and artist of our generation and one of the most incredibly underrated rappets of all time. Both creative geniuses who shaped and reshaped pop culture.

Janet and Busta are a powerhouse!

I’m not crying…you are! 😢That was so sweet, seeing Buss give the Queen her flowers, literally… ❤ “can somebody take this please?” Janet is ki… 🤭

MY GOODNESS!! Busta really came with it and piled it on!👏 Brother was heavy(and genuine) with the praise and encomiums!! I had a permanent grin all 6mins 34 secs of this video I'm soo glad I viewed it! This was done right! Busta REALLY schooled us all on how you give a WOMAN as genuine, diligent, hardworking, consistent, high-achieving, critically-acclaimed, commercially successful, HUMBLE and SWEET, and ALL-ROUND DESERVING as Ms. Jackson. The QUEEN, ROYAL EMPRESS JANET JACKSON! Bow down y'all!🙇🙇🙇👏👏👏

I'm straight up gagged, I should've known he was the guest the way she incorporated his music into her performances during the night

Busta Rhyme didn't cause any malfunction, he and Janet Jackson both classic. My brother protected her royal heritage. Thank you my loves ❤🌹🥀🥀🌺🌺🌼 giving her the flowers she deserves. Royal Empress!

One of the most memorable parts of the show last night … BUSTA #HipHop ❤❤❤❤

I'M SO JEALOUS...I was literally there the night before!!!!! I would've lost it when Busta came out and this song is one of the best collabs!

I noticed something. Janet the queen of pop .. no doubt but the hip hop version. Mj is just pure pop. Janet killed BOTH GENRES and thats what makes her not only an icon, but pure HISTORY! THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU HAVE DONE ! NEVER EVER STOP!

She deserves so much more ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉Happy Birthday Janet Jackson

Buss is such an emcee. Even when he's not rhyming, he knows how to command the crowd.

I really miss real rappers like this and I hail from NYC and was there when rap was conceived and I really miss authentic rappers like Busta.

This was my jam back in the day! The video still kills!!

This made me tear up a little. 25yrs and this song is still a banger. I wish i cpukd have seen this performance live. But watching it on here was just as awesome. Thanks to whomevwr recorded this.

I love this moment in time for her. All the love coming her way is deserved. For a fan who never strayed, seeing the success of this tour brings a tear to my eye. Love Busta for giving Janet all that love.

I am crying over here with tears of joy! Thank you all for sharing such an iconic moment! I am so happy I got to see this!!!!!❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

I needed them to perform the song in its entirety. It was exciting to see the two of them finally onstage together.

It's the Royal Empress for me! Go ♉❤ I love her forever! What a beautiful moment 💘😍

After all these years we finally get this 🔥. I think janet is about to retire😢

I love how Buster praised her , gave her flowers this was so awesome ♥️❤️🥰🙏🏾

That was so beautiful. 2 of the GOATS.

Janet is a sweet heart ❤️ Happy birthday 🎊🎂

This was so Dope that they finally get to perform this song and good on Busta for honoring Janet. ❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥💯👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Busta is too cool. Obviously, so is Janet❤❤❤. She was my very first Concert in 1994 in support of her Janet Album. I couldn't have had a better first concert!! She was phenomenal in every sense of the word.

i dont think people understand how historic this is man... i wish i was there to witness this firsthand

After 25 years this song amps me up every time

Ive always wanted a performance of this song in an award show. I think with how big the song was it never happened. These are two of the greatest entertainers left.

This is such a beautiful performance and tribute to Janet! I couldn’t hold back the tears. This song still slaps 25 years later 🥲

This is the grown folk version ❤...I love it!

I love the collaboration between Busta Rhymes and Janet Jackson 💐💝👑

Viewing this made me feel old, Janets Jacksons moved looked old, sluggish and sated but the song remains great and the music will forever remain a classic !!

I love it! I'm a die hard Busta fan too. That was fantastic!

I actually screamed. This is one of my favorite songs of all time and the fact that they’ve NEVER performed this together is crazy. I was laying in bed and freaked the f*** out 😂

Busta has got to be one of the most humble rappers..if not people in the game.

I would have passed out when Busta walked out ❤❤❤❤❤❤ Janet is gorgeous.. love her outfit

That song is legendary

My first concert ever was a Janet concert when I was on Jr high and she was amazing. I’ll never forget it❤❤❤💐

Busta energy is unmatched very underrated MC and i love janet especially my father thats his wife😊😊😊

I can't believe that they have never ever performed that song ever on stage together that's crazy and I have to say that is one of my favorite songs ever with Janet Jackson

Aww that's beautiful when he brought out the bouquet of flowers for Janet and had everyone say Happy birthday to her and they both Taurus too this was sweet to see ☺️🥰🥰 She is a Queen and will always be 👑👏👏✨

Janet is truly a Empress very fitting. Yes she deserves her flowers 💐 And happy Birthday Mrs Jackson ❤ love ya 😘

Busta represented big time, Janet sounded just like Michael at the end.

Now, this is how it's done! Give honour to whom it is due while they are still alive and well. Busta is a true gentleman - He's always spoken respectfully and highly of Janet Jackson anywhere and at all times.

Happy Birthday Janet!🎂🥂🍾💝 You really Pulled Out The Big Guns. This King knows how to ingratiate a an Empress. This song's video, Bustas Mountain Dew soda commercial, and Back Street Boys songs were my source of tolerance and happiness during a very difficult pregnancy. My Preemie is now a big strong young man. Thanks so much.💗

That just BEYOND warmed my heart! Busta is just such an amazing person, to show this MUCH DESERVED QUEEN that amount of love and appreciation. Love you Janet, so much ❤❤❤

Happy Birtday Queen Janet Jackson!🥰 Happy Mother's Day From All Of Us OK! The King Busta Rhymes Hip Hop King1! (Yes)*(Queen Janet Enjoy Your Tour OK (WIN)*(WIN)*(JOY)*(JOHN 3:16)😇🥰😇🥰🙏🌤🌦🌟🌠😇🥰🙏🌤🌦🌟🌠😇 😇🥰🙏🌦🌟🌠😇🥰🙏🌤🌦🌟🌠😇🥰

That was SO BEAUTIFUL. BUSTA show how its done. Jermaine dupri need to take notes.

This song was and is such a bop!!! Cannot believe they’ve never done it live.

I've got goosebumps!!!! I want to lose my mind when I seen Bust walk out with that SMILE. Bust always puts on a show. Janet normally wouldn't bring out surprise guests. Look what time brings.

😪😪😪😪😪😪😪That's how you respect the Queen Ms.Jackson💚💚💚 Both Taureans♉️♉️♉️♉️she deserves every single accolade! She is the goat. PERIOD! I hope this isn't her last tour. I would love to see her again. Her shows are always amazing, and this round was no different!

I'm 55 and she's 57 and I love ❤ myself some Janet Jackson. She's still my little Penny.

This was so heartwarming and beautifully moving. Thank you so much for recording this and uploading it to RU-vid, LIVEfromFrontRow.

This is heart warming ♥️

When girls say “ I usually don’t mess with big dude but you cute.” They are sweet

Busta's flow is legendary and is still there.

Queen Janet. Love her❤. That was sweet that Busta Rhymes did that for her.

This is love right here! This is love 🎊 ❤❤❤ you ain’t gonna be with somebody to show them love , you just gotta appreciate them !

Her reaction was so adorable and this was amazing of Busta to do this, absolutely incredible and well deserved

This entire performance was LEGENDARY all the way down to Busta’s Walk in with the crowds reaction. Still found it hard to believe they’ve never performed this song live, it was such an iconic song.

Awww man all we got was Jermaine 🫤🥴🤣🤣. Would have loved to have seen Busta Bust😍❤️❤️❤️

Wow!!!! 😭😭😭 That was so beautiful ❤❤❤
