Jimmy Fallon, Janet Jackson & The Roots Sing "Runaway" (Classroom Instruments)

Janet Jackson joined The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday. She discussed her upcoming Black Diamond tour and told fans what to expect from the Rhythm Nation performance. She shared stories of her three-year-old son Eissa’s obsession with classical music. Additionally, she revealed the inspiration by the name of the new tour and album.

“Black Diamond is the toughest of the stones to cut,” Jackson said. “I heard that immediately as ‘hard to hurt, to destroy. In recent years, I’ve come to realize I’m incredibly strong. I see myself as this rock–rough around the edges. I just want to share some of my strengths and stories.”

While she didn’t hit the stage, she still gave viewers a special showing. Along with Fallon and The Roots, Janet recreated her 1995 single “Runaway” with classroom instruments.
