Beijing, June 14 -- Pop star Janet Jackson's new studio album, "20 Years Old," will arrive in stores September 26 via Virgin Records, with the first single, "Call on Me," featuring rapper Nelly, ready to hit U.S. radio outlets next week.

As previously reported, Jackson's latest collection was produced by her boyfriend, Virgin Urban president Jermaine Dupri, as well as longtime collaborators Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis.

"20 Years Old," which is an apparent reference to the 20-year anniversary of Jackson's 1986 smash album "Control," is the follow-up to 2004's "Damita Jo," which was released during the fallout from her breast-baring Super Bowl halftime appearance.

That set debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 pop chart and has sold 987,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
