LaToya Jackson was the first female sibling of the Jackson family to pursue a solo musical career. Her debut album "LaToya Jackson" was released in 1980 on Polydor Records. The first single off the album "If You Feel The Funk" was critically acclaimed and was a chart single in most European countries (#40 on the Billboard R&B Charts, #17 Billboard Dance/Club Play), #42 in Germany, and #18 in Holland). The second single, "Night Time Lover" didn't do as well as the first single release, although it was co-written and co-produced by her brother Michael Jackson.
