Trevor Nelson's Rhythm Nation brings you the perfect soundtrack of Soul, R 'n’ B, Club Classics and everything in-between to liven up your Saturday night on ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio 2.

Trevor is joined this week by a member of the most famous family in modern music, none other than Janet Jackson. She's going to be taking over hour two playing some of her all-time favourite tunes and chatting with Trevor about everything from life as a Jackson to being a working mum.

With Trevor’s encyclopedic knowledge of soulful music, you’ll hear a show bursting with love for stone-cold classics, forgotten gems you won’t have heard for years with a smattering of new music.

Each week Trevor turns the lights down as he drops the BPM’s and plays two slow jams back to back and we delve into your Musical Youth, this is that one song that transports you back to your formative years. If you have a song that takes you back to your youth Trevor would love to hear from you. Email Trevor@bbc.co.uk with your song and memory attached to it.

If it’s got soul, you’ll find it on Trevor Nelson's Rhythm Nation 8-10pm Saturday nights on ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio 2.
