Gwen had iconic hits and her style was really influential plus I feel like she was one of the first to talk on songs that influenced future artists. i hope she gets the acknowledgement and respect that she deserves bc she's a queen even tho her recent songs are disappointing.
I just don’t feel like she has a clear direction as to where she wants to go and is too concerned with rebranding herself. The last no doubt album was amazing and her solo stuff is great.
People evolve. Artist grow out of phases. Gaga will never be able to recreate what she did when she first came into the scene. Both women have matured.
When you have a voice that can move into different genres it must be tough to figure that direction out. That pop era has left many superstars of the day now doing "greatest" hits tours.
Her video for luxurious is my fave. Being a Mexican America who grew up around the culture, she did it perfectly. Not just that but she probably knows more bout the chola/chili chicano culture more than most modern Mexican Americans do since she herself grew up around it as well
i dont like how there is individuals in the comments talking like gwen isnt the shit ! her legacy will always be great bc she’s always been very versatile, from tragic kingdom all the way to the music she’s done now, it’s still very much it!!! many girls cant do what she’s done
Love this video. Gwen and I are both from Orange County Ca! I see all the influences that go into her music. My favorite video Gwen has ever created is Luxurious, I know many would say she's appropriating Cholo/Chola culture in that video but if you knew where she grew up that subculture was all around her! Seeing that video as a Mexican American (mind you this is the only representation I saw of me growing up) she perfectly represented the makeup, clothing, hair even down to the kickback in the park!
This needed to be like 5 parts. Also, they didn't even touch on band issues on Return of Saturn. ROS was all about Gwen wanting baibes and marriage. This was sloppy.
Met Gwen by accident at Balleys in Los Vegas by accident when No Doubt was just getting big. It was no more then hello, how you doing at the crap table , she had no star attitude and was very "down to earth" One of those talked to someone famous even though it was just a few words that I will not forget!
Return of Saturn was so good, and nowadays when people mention that to Gwen it's like she wants to forget it even happened because of how volatile her relationship with Gavin Rossdale was
Nice video. Gwen Stefani is indeed private. Personally, I’ve always loved her work with No Doubt as they experimented with different genres including dance hall music by Rocksteady. As for Stefani’s solo work well it’s pretty good but her more recent music particularly with slow clap isn’t the Gwen Stefani I remember being a fan of although artists music changes I suppose
yes. this is what we’ve all needed🥰 thank you for creating this video, Gwen is one of my idols in life not only cause she was raised in Orange County but cause she’s a REAL ARTIST!
Fame was forced on her, Providence, her older brother Eric Stefani WAS No Doubt, he was obsessed with this British band and forced Gwen to listen, Eric formed No Doubt, there was a male lead singer Gwen just backed, but lead singer killed him self and Gwen became lead singer reluctantly, while signed to a record contract they did bad, then her boyfriend of 8 years broke up with her, and she wrote those awesome 90’s songs that made No Doubt No doubt
Most people are past their peak at 51 in more ways than one. Doesn’t mean they should disappear just because they are no longer young and edgy. Plenty of examples of older people providing relevant content even if it’s no longer in the mainstream eye. (This isn’t directed at your comment. Just a general statement).
@@terri4049 of course. And honesty 51 one isn't even old. She can still make music if she wants, Madonna is a good example, but I think her LAMB music days are over.
PLEASE😏 HER LEGACY HAS LONG BEEN STAMPED IN STONE AS AN MUSIC ICON💃 LOVE HER 😍 I DO OR HATE HER NOT MANY DO SHE'S A MUSIC UNICORN🦄 I'VE DRAWN HER ABOUT 7 TIMES 🤘😜
Don't think her new music will ruin her legacy. Music is her purpose. I've been a fan of No Doubt since I was 10 and was a little upset when I heard her solo album initially, but realized things change. As long as she's making music and happy, her true fans will embrace it.
I wasn’t a No Doubt fan but love watching Gwen live, what’s great about No Doubt is that as opposed to the factory made bubblegum of Brittny Spears, Christine Agularu and others, No Doubt was the REAL DEAL, they didn’t have a studio writing songs for them, planning tours and promotions, they are the LAST BAND TO DO IT THE OLD FASHIONED WAY. Finally and most important Gwen is UNIQUE, not perfect and that’s part of the appeal, broad shoulders and long skinny arms she made motions rappers did but still kept feminity, you want something unique watch one of No Doubts hits, and perfect blend of Reggae, Ballads, Rock Guitar, they are hard to define and Gwen impossible
Gwen music is so iconic to a capital I. I remember being a 00s kid she was everywhere from no doubt to her feature with eve’s let me blow your mind to LAMB to her fashion line she’s truly a pop music/fashion icon. However I will forever side eye her for her tone deaf cultural appropriation antics
I met Gwen in 97 at Fashion Island at Macy’s, one of those square displays like Cologne but I don’t remember exactly what the product was. I noticed someone staring at me from the other side, I looked at her but couldn’t place her (They had just broke HUGE), looking at her again I thought she might have been a ex girlfriend, I walked over and said “Where do I know you from” she told me she was with No Doubt and instantly I remembered, I said “You guys are doing awesome”, grabbed her hand and said I was taking her next door to Birraperritis for a drink. She was REALLY COOL, I mean down to earth, I bought her two “Gumba Splashes” 2 shots Bacardi, pineapple juice and grenadine, she was in love with me (Not literally but she wanted me bad) she said no guys ever ask her out, she was seeing someone but not serious, I kissed her and that was that. I knew it could never work, with her touring all the time and I was wanting to get married, but she was VERY FEMININE, didn’t swear, no skank at all, I think all she wanted was to be loved, but pretty cool story I get to tell
I absolutely think her new music is ruining her legacy. Obviously art is subjective but if you ask me, I think everything she’s come out with in the past 10 years has been trash.
@@Rainhands22 I was referring to her maturing, not her sound. People grow out of phases. I also don’t tino people are real fans if they can call an artist trash or not good.
Love when since tk era. Her new stuff seems corny and forced to me. Where I feel embarrassed slightly about openly admitting how much I love her. 😬😬😬😬😳😳
Boring white girl that tested different cultures in a cool way, started off with interesting music and vibes - but eventually married a country singer and got plastic surgery and is very pretty... The Gwen Stefani Story
Her solo work is so bad, her first two albums were decent. Her newer stuff is horrendous. I feel like she’s trying desperately to fit in with the Miley’s and Ariana’s, when she’s more with the Courtney Love, Shirley Manson crowd. She looks ridiculously gorgeous, but that’s about it. Her music is just not good
She definitely ruined songs speak and harajuku style. And her old vintage style including her face why country I miss the old pop icon and her 90s style self made clothing
Gwen had iconic hits and her style was really influential plus I feel like she was one of the first to talk on songs that influenced future artists. i hope she gets the acknowledgement and respect that she deserves bc she's a queen even tho her recent songs are disappointing.
also i hope u make more "iconic pop culture" videos bc those are my faves from ur channel and you'd never ran out of content.
My favourite childhood song was "what you waiting for" such an underrated song
how is it underrated it was top of the charts
It def was not underrated it was a huge song and album when it came out!
OMG! You just made me realize that I am old .. your favorite childhood song??!!😀
Agreed
@@coolfulldowns I totally agree it's underrated because it was forgotten over the years. 'Cool' has triple the views but no where near as good a song
I just don’t feel like she has a clear direction as to where she wants to go and is too concerned with rebranding herself. The last no doubt album was amazing and her solo stuff is great.

For real!
Yesssssssss
"Reintroduce Myself" is good, but "Slow Cap" not so much. Still excited for her new music
This needed to be like 5 parts. Also, they didn't even touch on band issues on Return of Saturn. ROS was all about Gwen wanting baibes and marriage. This was sloppy.
This was utter shit lol.
I was watching tv with my Dad and she came on tv. He asked me who she was and then he said “She is a STONE-COLD FOX!!! 🤣
Your channel is just GOLD
She is very talented and beatifull.
Please do something about Amy Winehouse ❤️

My problematic fav! Let’s go! (I say this with lots of love. 💚💚💚 No Doubt Gwen was my idol.)
I remember her iconic perfumes Harajuku Lovers i loved G
I love Gwen Stefani!
Her LAMB and Sweet Escape albums were my fave as a kid/teen
return of saturn was their last truly good album
uuuh......... rock steady is literally one of their best albums girl
@@TerryHarbor lol you’re entitled to that opinion
Return of Saturn was so good, and nowadays when people mention that to Gwen it's like she wants to forget it even happened because of how volatile her relationship with Gavin Rossdale was
all the albums leading up to rocksteady was good but rocksteady was their last best
Agree. The tour too. But then I do like that singer/songwriter, melancholy stuff. (There was plenty of upbeat stuff on there too).
I loved no doubt and Gwen's solo albums Harajuku lovers forever ♥
I forgot Gwen had the bright pink hair for a while. I think she also dyed it blue? I hope you make a part 2 of this! ✌️
Nice video. Gwen Stefani is indeed private. Personally, I’ve always loved her work with No Doubt as they experimented with different genres including dance hall music by Rocksteady. As for Stefani’s solo work well it’s pretty good but her more recent music particularly with slow clap isn’t the Gwen Stefani I remember being a fan of although artists music changes I suppose
Her recent music blows arse. Just say it lol.
yes. this is what we’ve all needed🥰 thank you for creating this video, Gwen is one of my idols in life not only cause she was raised in Orange County but cause she’s a REAL ARTIST!
She had a bigger influence than she ever realized back then...
My favorite band (besides Paramore) Tragic Kingdom a classic 🙌🏽
It's amazing that she started her career in the mid- 80's
Fame was forced on her, Providence, her older brother Eric Stefani WAS No Doubt, he was obsessed with this British band and forced Gwen to listen, Eric formed No Doubt, there was a male lead singer Gwen just backed, but lead singer killed him self and Gwen became lead singer reluctantly, while signed to a record contract they did bad, then her boyfriend of 8 years broke up with her, and she wrote those awesome 90’s songs that made No Doubt No doubt

One of my favorite icons
I’m surprised they didn’t mention her collaborating w sublime “I Saw Red.”
not too mention that her and Bradley used to date as well
@@twistedineveryway6429 long live bradley n sublime 💚
a part 2 is needed ☝🏾

Hey Gwen. I shopped for records at that Tower Records in 1976 :)
Just like Paris Hilton,Beyoncé, Gwen Stefani is a icon in fashion,music and pop culture.
Beyonce is NOT a icon in fashion! Most of her looks are tacky and she has never started a trend. Britney on the other hand. A sensation.

Gwen is amazing.
we need part 2 aka solo gwen
I fucking love your videos! You’re so underrated!!!!! Make more!!! Please
This video ended way too soon. She had a whole career after No Doubt split. I feel like this was part one of a 3 part series fr.
LOL the sneaking out clips from THIRTEEN. 😂
Wish you would have mentioned "Don't Speak " has an original version as a love song. The original is on youtube...
If I could escape always got to me
Gwen music is so iconic to a capital I. I remember being a 00s kid she was everywhere from no doubt to her feature with eve’s let me blow your mind to LAMB to her fashion line she’s truly a pop music/fashion icon. However I will forever side eye her for her tone deaf cultural appropriation antics
we definitely a part two fr
As an ATRL member, I can tell you that ATRL (and most people on there) sucks. Love Gwen ❤
I love Gwen Stefani
I like her old music, recently I don’t really enjoyed, like the last song featuring saweetie sounds like a kids bob 😩
Some of that information was inaccurate.
you’re channel is AMAZING … obsessing over all this content 🖤!
just listened to lamb randomly yesterday 🤯
Period 💅🏼
How come there's no coverage of her solo works
B A N A N A N
Love ur channel 💓 ❤
No matter what I do Britney beign number one I always return to No Doubt🤷♂️
So her grandma died so the band moved into her house???? Lol what???
the grandma died and the band moved into her old house which was owned by gwens parents and it became the band house
Lmfaoooo it sounds so funny I bursted out laughing. He should of said that differently
"Life smiled at them and quickly found a house for the rehearsals when Gwens granny died..."
The eve collaboration era was something else & her harijuku phase was vv interesting
Could you do a pop culture video on “Paris exposed” I feel like nobody knows about it and it’s really REALLY messy
So.... NOT gonna read all the comments for a 6 min video but I loved the history however disappointed at the repeat media
I met Gwen in 97 at Fashion Island at Macy’s, one of those square displays like Cologne but I don’t remember exactly what the product was.

i wish it was longer :/ but i loved it
Damn she born in 69, who woulda thought
Please, The Story Of Viktoria Modesta.
It's VideOpolis, and it's evEEta (Evita)
What’s the outro sample? The last few seconds of the video :3
zero dislikes LETS GOOOOO
Has she been investigated by the NSA for not aging? Something, is going on with that .
The story of COBRAH, please tell me who this woman is who is invading my on repeat playlist 🔂
You can do a kali uchis one?pleasee
my mom and her are still mad at eachother its hilarious
Who is your mom
Gwen died when she started botching her pretty face 🥺
And here I thought she was from Dominican republic. I dont know where I got that
EH VEEEEE TA!
I absolutely think her new music is ruining her legacy. Obviously art is subjective but if you ask me, I think everything she’s come out with in the past 10 years has been trash.
She’s evolved and matured, like all artist.
@@danielperez08 it doesn't make it good just because you call it 'matured'.
@@Rainhands22 I was referring to her maturing, not her sound. People grow out of phases. I also don’t tino people are real fans if they can call an artist trash or not good.
Yea her images as well she’s not as mágical as she was. In the 90s
*its EE-VEE-TA not evi-ta
Love when since tk era. Her new stuff seems corny and forced to me. Where I feel embarrassed slightly about openly admitting how much I love her. 😬😬😬😬😳😳
Her recent music is garbage and not worth listening to.
Boring white girl that tested different cultures in a cool way, started off with interesting music and vibes - but eventually married a country singer and got plastic surgery and is very pretty... The Gwen Stefani Story
Eh-vi-tah? Seriously?
Fame is just about finding the perfect lie for the masses, always being asleep for the control.
Eric Stefani and John Spence were lovers…
Wait is there proof
Trying to start a rumor.....and can’t even get his name right
Who told her she can sing? She can sing her No Doubt songs but that's it.
Her solo work is so bad, her first two albums were decent. Her newer stuff is horrendous.
I feel like she’s trying desperately to fit in with the Miley’s and Ariana’s, when she’s more with the Courtney Love, Shirley Manson crowd.
She looks ridiculously gorgeous, but that’s about it.
Her music is just not good
👎🏽
She grew up prilvage
eh? there are way more artists who was more privileged than her. at least it took time for her and the band to be successful.
@@as.dexter that doesn't take away the fact that she grew up not struggling
@@codeblack9407 artists dont have to struggle tho. If they're good they're good.
And??
It doesn’t mean she didn’t deserve success
What’s the point? Why does it matter? What’s your angle? Does she not deserve to live because she had it better than some? Let people live man.
Hurry up and tell the part where she broke up a marriage.
Didn’t happen.
She definitely ruined songs speak and harajuku style. And her old vintage style including her face why country I miss the old pop icon and her 90s style self made clothing
