We love are stars and then we also love to hate them. When they do well the adore them and any hint of negative news and the back slashes start. Even after selling millions of records and winning grammy awards being two of the most recognizable names in the music business, Mariah Carey and Sean “Diddy” Combs has something else in common; they are considered some of the “worst” of the worst. Like Mariah Carey had a dip in fortunes at the start of 2000-2001 but has since then has deleviered hits to reposition herself as one of the all time leading artist. Meanwhile, Diddy made Retrocrush’s list for “100 Worst Cover Songs of All Time.” His reworking of Led Zeppelin’s classic ‘Kashmir,’ which he used for his single titled ‘Come With Me’ drew ire from the popular pop culture website. Sometimes they really come up with such shit work that it puts us to think as what toilet inspiration led them to create the song and at times the whole ablum. In a world where the shelf life of an artist is only at best your last successful album, such miss calculated moves are a real turn off from the artists.
