After a full weekend of non-stop entertainment, Essence Festival 2024 aka 30th Essence Festival of Culture concluded on Sunday night (July 7), and they saved the best for last.

Following performances from acts such as TGT on Friday, and Usher on Saturday, the Queen of Pop, Janet Jackson took to the stage for the final night of the annual soiree.

The 58-year-old icon performed for almost 2 hours, delivering her endless back-to-back hits and her signature stellar choreography.

As expected, fans flooded social media to fan out over the icon and her performance which was the latest stop as she is on the road for the Summer/Fall 2024 leg of her ‘Together Again Tour.’

Get into some of the clips and reactions from the show below which attendees and viewers called a “masterclass” and “blueprint” performance.

You can’t tell me Janet doesn’t sound EXACTLY like Michael when she sings “rhythm nation” here and yells “I love you!” at the end 🥺. And today (her time) is 7/7 🥲 #JanetJackson #ESSENCEfest –#MichaelJackson pic.twitter.com/5qM6cGVWkg
