I'm not serious... I'm obviously not that dumb (I hope
). Shontelle is obviously a HUGE flop and so I just thought I'd be ridiculous and call her more successful than Joss for the sake of hilarity, but seriously I don't really consider Joss a huge success either. She's had pretty amazing album sales stateside for having no hits, I must admit that, but I'm of school of thought that albums that sell well are great, but albums that sell well and have hits are even better.
Hit singles are the things artists are remembered for, and it's all well and good if your album is selling well, but has Joss contributed anything to popular culture that people 20 years from now will look back upon and remember fondly? So if we're talking about contributing something socially, I definitely consider Shontelle and her flop album more successful. "T-Shirt" managed to be moderately popular, something a Joss song has yet to do.
And I'll be honest, I just hate Joss Stone because I find her to be a bit of a skeezy skank bag, so I'm just going to own up to my hater ways, take a bow and get the **** out of this thread.
Later!
