I don't know why this is so funny to me. No one getting hype off of Jessica Simpson in 2016 :dead:

People were barely checking for Jessica Simpson before her show. Damn sure weren't after that shyt ended.


I didn't watch the video but did she play Tyrone cause that shyt transcends age barriers for some reason. I liked that as a kid even though her music wasn't really for me.

This is the first time Ive seen people say Badu is over rated.

She has one great album that people cherish another average-above average album that people are really indifferent about.

Other than that she dropped 2 albums that not a single person gave a fukk about. She got ass naked to sell a single on them:jbhmm:


She is overrated in the sense that people are in here acting young folk are disrespecting music cause they dont give a fukk about her. Why does anyone need to know Baduh's music?

Y'all sit here and straight up overrated every artist of your youth.

Usually, this is where we pile onto the kids, but shyt I remember when she was relevant, and never really liked any of her songs or how she emasculated 3000 and Common

This. I'm 27 & despite how positive folks my age & older talk about her music, I've never cared about or been interested in her music.

Brehs what's her biggest radio/mainstream hits? I would't have any idea without looking it up. The only songs I know from her is that 1 single she had with Common back in 2002 AND that calling Tyrone song. The only reason I'm familiar with that Calling Tyrone song is because the song is referenced in the movie "Next Friday" & I've seen that movie a bunch times over the years.

So, I can't even imagine teenagers nowadays being familiar with or caring about her music.
