      I'd say that Busta is underrated, but just a little bit, considering how impecable his flow and wordplay is and how relatively little he is mentioned compared to some of his contemporaries.
      About Janet, I'm not sure if I'd call one of the highest selling music artists of all time underrated, but there's something to be said about how a good amount of her list of monumental hits was swept under the rug for some time after the Super Bowl incident.

      @@samuelshiels4608 Really??? So you missed the ENTIRE "Janet" album that brought out her sexual image years before "Scream"? Also, "Scream" was co-written by Michael, Janet and HER co-producers Jimmy Jam age Terry Lewis. So, it was 25% Michael and 75% Janet and HER team. The song was released at a time when Janet was at the height of her popularity and Michael's image and sales were tanking. It was Janet helping her brother.

      @@hutch1197 Ayyyy, alright. Just a mistake. Also I found out the dominatrix thing was popular in the 90s because BDSM was becoming popular in porn. Some people even theorize that the outfits in the Matrix were inspired from BDSM.
