Janet Jackson hit soars on Spotify after 'nasty' debate

It's literally become the campaign anthem for Hillary.

Plenty of people are thinkin' nasty thoughts after Wednesday night's presidential debate.

Spotify streams of Janet Jackson's 1986 hit single "Nasty" spiked 250% after Donald Trump called Hillary Clinton "such a nasty woman" during the final minutes of the showdown, according to the music service.

Clinton may not have acknowledged the comment during the debate, but the internet took notice. The word became one of Merriam-Webster's ...or entries after the debate, according to the dictionary website.

Clinton supporters also seized on the comment.

"Nasty" is one of Jackson's best-known songs from a music career that spans several decades and nearly a dozen solo albums.

Yuuuup and great news, as it reminds people what a great song Nasty is, and how it still resonates after 30 years nod music Control is such a classic album.

lol 250% doesn't mean 250 times. It means 2.5 times as much. Too bad he didn't call her a Nasty Girl to give slut-shaming Beyonce some attention.

Actually a 100% raise means twice as much, so I don't know what 250% raise is.
