It’s time to dust off your cassette player and blast “Young Love” and “Say You Do”: Janet Jackson is celebrating the 40th anniversary of her first album, “Janet Jackson,” with some help from Lifetime and A&E. The two-night, four-hour documentary event will be simulcast on both networks, a press release announced.

Offering “full unprecedented access to the music icon,” “Janet” promises “an intimate, honest, and unfiltered look at her untold story.” The doc has been filming for three years, and its producers have been granted “exclusive access to archival footage and Janet’s never before seen home videos, along with star-studded interviews.”

“Janet” is set to air in early 2022.

The project sees the chart-topper returning to the world stage “following a sudden break from music. Speaking like never before, Janet also discusses everything including her Superbowl appearance with Justin Timberlake in 2004, the death of her brother Michael, and becoming a mother later in life,” the release details.

One of the best-selling artists in music history, Jackson’s biggest hits include “Together Again,” “That’s the Way Love Goes,” and “All For You.”
