Flop Redeemer

In 2001, the movie Glitter left audiences shocked and awed, but for all the wrong reasons. This week, in anticipation over the release of Mariah Carey's upcoming Rarities album, we're taking a brief sidestep into the prestigious world of cinema and talking about Glitter.

This week, we're redeeming two songs by R&B singer Tamia and alternative band Veruca Salt that blew our teenaged minds, but didn't really blow up the pop charts; was it just our raging hormones?

We share our reactions to Brandy and Monica's appearance on Verzuz and wonder, would a true friend ever insinuate that you had kicked down their door at some point over two decades ago?

In part 2 of our episode discussing the aftermath, we talk about Brandy's 2008 album Human, and the song "Warm It Up (With Love)", released following a tragic accident that had far-reaching effects on her career. 

When Janet's "Just A Little While" sank without a sound in the aftermath of an infamous public scandal, what did it say about our culture and what we expect from our celebrities? Who gets to be forgiven, and who gets the curtain call?

This week we're delving into the careers of JoJo and Rachel Crow, two artists who debuted when they were young, but disappeared from the public eye before reemerging as adults. We wonder, is it possible to bridge the gap between child star to grown ass woman?

What happens when two ladies of soul cross the pond for new inspiration? In this episode we discuss two musical detours, Kelly Rowland's Commander and Mary J. Blige's Whole Damn Year, that failed to resonate with fans.

With these artists, we didn't buy into the hype...until it was too late. This week we're talking about the artists we loved to hate, then hated to love.

Who do we stan? In this episode we give you a sense of our individual musical tastes as we redeem flops by the artists we love most.

In our preview episode, we discuss what a flop is, how flops happen, and why sometimes a total flop can be your total bop.
